Silent Hill 3 Hints
Steel Pipe
1 of 3: The steel pipe is a significantly better weapon than the knife. It is stronger AND has a longer range. On the other hand, it's a bit slower to swing than the knife. It may become a very useful weapon, though, if you're out of ammo, as it has some stopping power, allowing you to disrupt an enemy's movement or attack. Much better than nothing.
2 of 3: The steel pipe can be found in a room just south of the bookstore in the mall. It's at the end of the bar you are behind. The camera angle will change to give you a good view of it. Press the Action Button to pick it up.
3 of 3: You have access to this room after the scene with Claudia in the mall.
