Silent Hill 3 Hints

Submachine Gun

  • 1 of 2: The biggest problem with the submachine gun is that Heather can't move while firing it, so some fast enemies, such as Double Heads, can sometimes slip through the crossfire and Heather can't avoid them.  If an enemy is avoiding your attack, use the movement controls to cause her to move her torso, offering a wider range of fire without having to stop firing to move.
  • 2 of 2: Be very conservative with your submachine gun ammo -- it's very rare.  Make sure you aim carefully and stop firing when your enemy falls -- it's better to kick it rather than waste the ammo.
