Silent Hill 3 Hints
Double Head
1 of 2: Every survival-horror game has to have zombie dogs, and Silent Hill 3 is no exception. Double Heads are bloody, bandaged dogs with their heads split in two. They have two types of attacks: 1) a flyby biting, and 2) grabbing Heather's leg, holding her until she shakes them off. While Double Heads aren't necessarily strong, they're fast and agile, making them a potential challenge, especially in large groups. If a Double Head is eating (which you can instrument through the use of Beef Jerky), you can easily sneak by it by turning off your flashlight walking by quietly. They'll let out a howl when they spot you.
2 of 2: To take out Double Heads, the key is to keep moving so they'll run right by you instead of into you. Use your handgun while moving and sidestepping, firing until it falls, or time an attack with a FAST melee weapon so you can hit it as it run/jumps towards you. Since Double Heads are small, it's often best to use an overhead strike. Constant movement is even more imperative when you're being attacked by multiple Double Heads.
