Submission: Paul Mark Bautista (pm_bautista@hotmail.com) Why Play The EX Mode? Thanks to misinformation from many official sources, including the Brady Games Official Guide, many gamers are finding out the hard way that there is no second ending movie. The only difference between the ending in the regular game and EX mode is that there are pictures and a new song that appears along with the credits. If there is no different ending, then why play the EX Mode? Well first of all, you'll get to battle a lot of brand new enemies and find many new, and much more powerful weapons and armor. Secondly, you can enjoy building up your main weapon and armor to your very own customized superweapons and armor with new special parameters such as: 3xCommand, Add Cyanide, Auto-Cure, Anti-Confusion and more. Thirdly, you'll gain access to the 77 floor Chrysler Building along with 3 brand new and very tough bosses that are waiting within. And finally, the EX Mode will add at least another 11-12 hours of gameplay to Parasite Eve. How To Get There: After you beat Parasite Eve the first time, wait until the very end of the credits and save your game when given the chance. You should see an EX Mode icon appear with your saved game data. Now restart the game and you should be given the EX mode option on the opening screen along with "New Game", "Tutorial", and "Continue". Choose EX Mode. Bring Your Best Stuff With You: A nice feature of the EX mode is that you can bring over your best weapon and armor over from your past game along with any important items you may want to keep. When you first arrive upon the Cruiser after defeating both Eve and Melissa you will be able to speak with Wayne. He asks you if you want to engrave your name on one piece of armor, and one weapon. Choose your best of each and name them (preferably something cool). As for items... if you don't invision using something in the final battle,yet you want to keep it, such as a tool or supertool, store it with Wayne and you should be able to pick it up at the NYPD in the EX Mode. Build Up Your Stats:It is a general consensus that the Chrysler Building is quite tough, so build up your levels, weapon, and armor before heading in. What you should do is go through the entire game until just after you have defeated theT-REX boss in the museum. This is the last boss that you can fight where you can still return to the city map and the Chrysler building. By this point your should be around level 35, have Liberate, and your weapon and armor should be seriously powerful. Second Ending: All what's needed to do is play ex game, go to the new building go all the way up for 70 of normal floors (each 10th floor had a boss, defeat the boss for the key to go short cut BACK down) then keep going for few floors without any monster, then fight Aya's sister Maya.... yep, not a mistake. her sister Maya (the original Eve) then there's totally different ending. P.S. i wouldn't say her sister's easy!!! Submission: Antiken >[antiken@golden.net.au] Beware when rebuilding levels for the ex game: I finished the first part of parasite eve and gained access to the ex game. i played the game up to the point where i defeated the t-rex. there is one flaw however. if you go into klamps office where you are equipped with maeda's gun you cannot get rid of it even in the ex game. thus, you cannot switch to better weapons. i assume the only way to get rid of this gun is to play the entire game thru again since you aren't automatically equipped with maeda's gun until the very end. this of course means starting back at square one. so i guess i have two choices. because i was wise in my saving techniques i can just start over at the start of the ex game and rebuild my levels which will take roughly 10 hours or i can continue thru the chrysler building and take my chances with the weapon i am currently equipped with. i hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. my advice, stay clear of klamps office. Submission: >TaliaB5@aol.com Sub-Quest: There's a sub-quest in Parasite Eve.Once the whole song and credits are finished, you then are given the option of saving your game.After doing so, you kindda start all over again,exept that there's a new location on the map which is The Chrysler Building. It is suggested you rebuilt your power before entering it, because you're back to Level One. However, it doesn't take very long to get to a decent level since you get to keep the last weapon & armor you finised with.The Chrysler building is 99 floors of fighting. There's a storage room,an elevator and a set of stair on every floor and there's a Boss every 10th floor.There is only one saving point, on the 1st floor. Every time you defeat a Boss, you are given a key that will operate the elevator so that you can go back to the 1st floor, save and come back in 5 minutes instead of a half hour and then go for 10 more floors.I haven't got to the top yet; it is very time consuming all these floors. But I'm curious since I have heard that it is worth it to get to the top. I didn't find these tips on my own but in some strategie guide ordered through the mail,I thought you'd like to know.
