Uhhh?

When you play as Ashely get two zombies chasing after you. Dive under a table and see what they do.


Easy Garrador Kill! (finally) =D

First off...these dudes hate noises so they attack where the noise came from. Man these dudes are really dumb...well anyways...I use this:

Prison Garrador:

Ashley needs to come with you since you're using her as bait.Use the wait/follow me command as quickly as you can so he would say: waitfollowme so the Garrador will attack there. Walk somewhere where he wont get you with his claw attack.once hes stuck at the wall shoot him with the sniper or any other powerful weapon you've got.do all the steps above until hes dead and you'll end up with 15,000 PTA's

Mess Hall Garrador:

Once you're trapped inside the cage...shoot the locks until they break but stay away as far as possible from this dude.exit the cage and kill all the Zealots while dodging the Garrador.go to t..


Brass Pocketwatch

When your in the farm and you go around back there should be a pocket watch hanging over a well of slop. Shoot the lid and it will shut (with the shotgun) then shoot the watch.


*Ditman Glitch*

The Ditman glitch is a fun glitch to use but if used the wrong way it can make the game crash.The weapon you need is the Striker which is 43,000 PTA's @ the merchant's.To activate the glitch,equip your striker.Tap the button for aiming the weapon.before the laser even comes out,tap the status button for the weapon inventory.equip any weapon besides the Striker.now try running.it should make things easier since it makes Leon do stuff faster (Actions,Shooting,etc.)if used after the Del Lago fight at the merchant's on the blue torches part...stand at the dock and activate the Ditman glitch.move the crates and go upstairs.now jump down and you will be walking wherever you please.(don't try to get out of the area(black space)because the game may crash)there should be some items underneath Leo..


Great Items From Animals

Throughout the game of Resident evil 4 you will come across many different animals including hawks, chickens, snakes, fish, cows and many others, you may not know that they drop some great items. If you ever see a hawk shoot them for ammo, and money. If you come across a chicken they will drop eggs if you shoot them or just follow them around. If you find a snake stab/shoot it and it will drop an egg. And if you come across a fish in the water stab/shoot it and it will replenish health the large one will also sell for 2500 PTS and the small fish for 500 PTS but the fish also take up alot of inventory space. I do not think that cows drop anything. If I find more animal droppers I will post them here.


Free Weapons

You can obtain several weapons in this game for free. Here I will list the locations of these weapons:

Handgun - Automatically available from the start of the game.

Shotgun - Found in the house that triggers the villager attack cut-scene in the village in 1-1. It is in the upstairs bedroom, hoisted on the wall. However, on the Easy difficulty, it is automatically available from the start of the game, like the Handgun.

Punisher - Shoot 10 of the 15 Blue Medallions around the village and cemetery. The Merchant will give you this gun for free the next time you see him. If you shoot all 15 of the Blue Medallions, you'll also get a free Firepower upgrade for the gun.

Rocket Launcher - Found towards the end of 3-3, in the large room with the bridge c..


Easy way to defeat salazar

Buy a rocket launcher from the merchant then a rifle and go to salazar.take your rifle and shoot him in his eyes.it may take 2 or 3 bullets.then he will be stunned opening shield that covers salazar.take a rocket launcher and shoot it at his body.after that salazar will be killed


Herbs - all possible combinations and their effects

Resident Evil 4, like the other games in the series, features three different types of healing herb, which can be combined in numerous ways. However, due to the removal of the Poison status from the game, the Blue herb is replaced by the Yellow. The chart below lists all possible combinations and the effects of herbs when used:

Green - Restores a small amount of health

Green + Green - Restores a large amount of health

Green + Green + Green - Fully restores health

Red - Cannot be used alone

Yellow - Cannot be used alone

Green + Red - Fully restores health

Green + Yellow - Restores a small amount of health and adds an extra 5 percent to total health

Green + Green + Yellow - Restores a large amount of health and adds an extra 5 percent to total ..


Fun with Del Lago

Here's something I thought would be a little fun to try out...

In Chapter 1-3, as you are heading off to fight Del Lago, head onto the dock where the boat is moored, but don't get onto the boat. Instead, get out any weapon and start shooting into the lake. After shooting enough times, Del Lago will emerge and devour Leon, along with half the dock.

If you knew that already, here's something I bet you didn't know. It's a glitch caused by triggering the same cut-scene. Fire into the lake, but don't do it from the dock. Shoot from further away. When Del Lago emerges to eat you, he will only eat the dock, as you are not standing on it. However, the game will count it as a death, and you will see the 'You Died' message, despite the fact that you can actually hear L..


Easier way to beat saddler

Before fighting saddler go to the merchant and buy a rocket launcher , after buying go up through the elevator which leads to a battle with saddler , after saddler transforms, you run passing him and go to the end where a ladder can be seen , climb up then it will show operate wait for saddler to come near you , once he comes you activate it , then a rods of iron hits saddler , then he will be stunned , this is the chance, now quickly get down and equip the rocket launcher and fire in his eyes , Ada will throw a special rocket launcher use it and saddler will go boom , due to this you use only use one bullet to kill saddler ( without including the special rocket launcher )
