SecretsEdit

  1. In the first big room, head northwest, then open the northwest room to get a computer area map. (sector 2832)
  2. In a north-south hallway near the center of the facility with six lights on the ceiling, enter the side room at the east side and step on the pedestal. Afterwards, return to the hall and head west into a small corridor. Look north through the fence and shoot the switch. After shooting it, leave the corridor to the west and head all the way north to the door. Enter the next room, and in the room past that, head east and enter the teleporter. This takes you to a secret place where you can get armor bonuses, a stimpack, boxes of rockets, and a soul sphere. (sector 2301)
  3. In the large room with the super shotgun surrounded by seaweed, head to the northwest corner and use the metal wall that looks different. This is a secret trap room with a backpack. (sector 3250)
  4. At the southwest part of the waterway, go across the large water platform to the southwest and go through the black wall. Follow the path to get a soul sphere. (sector 327)
  5. Head east from the southwest waterway and into a room where there are crushers on the south wall. Approaching the wall near the east end reveals a lift behind the last crusher. Go there and take another lift to reach the southeast part of the map. (sector 2380)
  6. In the hall southeast of the central water fountain that goes up and down, jump west off the ledge and into a well with a megaarmor (green armor on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower). (sector 1125)
  7. Use the central water fountain that goes up and down to jump west into the area at the west side. Open the wall next to the yellow bar at the north wall to get armor bonuses and a megaarmor. (sector 1500)
  8. In the huge area at the north end of the facility, head up to the southwest ledge and follow the outer wall to a switch. Flip it, then return to the red key area. Enter the corridor at the east side and flip the switch there, then head north. Jump to the east and go to the northeast corner to get a megaarmor. (sector 2967)
  9. In the northwest corner of the facility, approaching the west switch reveals two closets to the north and south. Enter the closet to the north before it rises and open the east wall to get a soul sphere. (sector 4371)
  10. From the room with the super shotgun surrounded by seaweed, enter the middle structure and raise a bridge to the northeast. Open the red bars beyond the bridge, then take the lift down. Go across the gap to the east and press the switch above you at the east side. After doing this, head back to that small gap and use the switch to the south. This will unlock a path leading west to a soul sphere. (sector 3172)
  11. Head south from the dark intersection and head to the southernmost wall in the next room. Use it, then head north to the lowering wall to get a blur artifact. (sector 4287)
  12. In the U-shaped hall at the northeast end, head to the four switches at the east side and flip the switch on the west wall. Head west to get a blur artifact. (sector 233)
