When at your home area with the shed of guns, you may shoot down the birds either on the ground or while they fly in the air. Each bird that is shot will fall to its corresponding area and remain there until you leave the level. You can also shoot the pigs in their pen.

When playing in any level, just run or sneak up to an enemy and fight him with your fists. He will soon be out cold. Once he is, use any gun to shoot him anywhere on his body. He will not get back up.

Press (F1) and you will be in first person mode. This is quite dangerous to your missions because enemies will think you are pointing a gun at them and shoot you, which will alarm any nearby guards. Note: When you get the pizza in the Basement Killing level, switch to first person mode and look at the pizza.

The .22SD is well hidden in the castle level where you have to kill Hayamoto senior. It is one of the items that is displayed in his museum.
The .22SD does not trigger metal detectors. It is useful in the Basement Killing level.

On the motorcade level, you need to clear the town quickly and grab the supplied rifle. Shoot your target. This will cause the UN guards to stop and run on foot to your position. Wait until they get through the gates, then dodge their shots and put them in the cross fire from the remaining troops outside. Since you cannot hurt them, do not shoot. They will soon shoot their own men. Then, just run up and grab an M4. This may not be easy, but it does work.

Throughout all the levels you will run into many different types of guns. Whenever you see a gun that you do not already have, pick it up. After you complete the level on which you found the gun, the gun will now be available at your house. You will have ammunition in the room for you to use if desired. However, there are many guns that are too big to carry inside your clothes and therefore must be held in the open. You will not be able to pick up a gun of the same size or greater without dropping the one you are holding. You will find other guns on the same level that you cannot pick up because you are already holding one, and the gun you want is simply too big to conceal. In this case, you will have to decide which gun you want more then finish the level with it. You can always replay that level to get the other gun that was left behind.

When holding the Uzi, take out the Ballers. The Uzi will be fully holstered, like a pistol.

Press [F2} and equip any gun. Aim it at an enemy, slightly far from them. It will turn red. Shoot and the bullet will follow the enemy, but only if the aim is red. Note: This is useful for locating enemies behind walls.

If you are near a stack of ammunition but are notified by the game that you cannot pick it up, use the following trick to get almost twice as much normal ammunition. For example, if you have a shotgun with full ammunition and are next to a pile of shotgun ammunition, fire one shot, reload, then pick up the ammunition. You will now have almost double the ammunition.

On any level where you have your Silverballers and 2 normal handguns (sawn-off shotgun included), you can hold a normal handgun in each hand. All you have to do is drop your Ballers, get out 1 normal hand gun, pick up your ballers and get out another normal handgun. 47 will put one of the guns in his other hand. Not only can you fire 2 at once, you never have to reload!

While walking, rapidly tap (Run). If done correctly, you will be still in a walking position, but doing quick dashes and the guards will not notice.
