Silent Hill 2 Hints
How do I defeat the Big Boss?
1 of 5: Is this Mary or Maria? Whoever it is has two weapons, both slowly fatal: her, well, tail that strangles you, and a suffocating cloud of black butterflies that harry you.
2 of 5: Either will kill you if you let her get close to you, so shoot from a distance with either shotgun or rifle.
3 of 5: Run and shoot, run and shoot. Expect to use a lot of ammo in all but the Beginner Action level.
4 of 5: When she goes down for the final time, do what you saw James do the last time Mary was dying.
5 of 5: Put her out of her misery with one more shot.
