Jet Force Gemini - Strategy Guide (Page 07)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Jet Force Gemini - Strategy Guide (Page 07).

The key to winning is about the corners. You must take them very 
sharply, so as it come very close to the inside curve. If you do this, 
you can greatly improve your chances of winning. The final thing to 
remember, is to not use up your boosts at the start of the game! 
Instead, use them on straight-a-ways, to gain more momentum.

If you can beat the best time on both the Jeff & Barry and Jeff & Barry 
II machines (30 and 40 seconds, respectively) you can open up the 
Greenwood Special for the multiplayer section. Upon getting first in any 
race, it opens up its multiplayer equivalent. 

MIZAR'S 3D RACER:
-------------------

Exiting from the Lobby area of Mizar's Palace, go along the left-hand 
side wall and you will find a large pyramid inside a secret corridor -- 
go inside. Charge up on the jetpack pad, and boost to the top of the 
pillar that is in the center of the room. This is a Drone Transformation 
pad, and if you use it, you can metamorphosis into a that of a DRONE! 
Head through the next door, and jump on the elevator. In the next area, 
climb onto the car in the corner, and then drive through one of the 
tunnels.

This mini-game is similar to the Jeff & Barry Arcade games, except in 
3D, and much more intense. The gameplay mechanics are similar: analog 
stick for movement and acceleration, "A" for boosts (if you have one), 
get green spheres oil, red for bombs, and blue for one more boosting 
opportunity. If you've played any futuristic racers on the market today 
(F-Zero X and Wipeout in particular), then you should have a little 
trouble becoming a good Mizar 3D Racer player! 
 
If you come in first place here, you unlock its multiplayer twin.

================== STRANGE OBSERVATIONS / EASTER EGGS ==================
========================================================================

# 1 - Gimlet's entire mission (pants) and his strange accent, suggests 
to me that the webmaster of Rareware.com had some heavy influence on the 
programmer's of this game! :p  

# 2 - After bequeathing the pants to Gimlet in the Tawfret world, talk 
to him immediately. He says, and I quote, "Ahhhhh...my yin and yang are 
warming up nicely." If you leave the hut, he will disappear forever, so 
you have to talk to him immediately.

# 3 - When you trade the pornographic masterpiece known as the 
Specialist Magazine for the Mine Key, take care to pay special attention 
to fishface's words, and you can infer that he is going to be, to say 
the obvious, masturbating after you leave. I'm surprised Rare got this 
little joke past NOA (this is a T game, afterall, not an M). Regardless, 
it is rather comical! :p

# 4 - The entire disco area of Ichor: Perimeter is pure hilarity. 
Outside the gates, as you walk up dressed as a Drone, you can blow your 
"friends" away, and inside, well...you'll see for yourself. It's OK to 
burst out laughing.

# 5 - Also in the disco area, try talking to the D.J., you can change 
the beat of the music drastically. Don't have TOO much fun, now...

# 6 - Without a doubt, the biggest inside joke/easter egg of the entire 
game is the Ants into Pants cheat, which causes all the Drones to turn 
into 3D models of Mr. Pants. Who is Mr. Pants? Well, you might find out 
at Rareware.com...as I said, it's the biggest inside joke I've seen in a 
game of this type for quite some time. 

# 7 - In Tawfret: Castle, near the end, you will find a large carving of 
Mr. Pants in the wall. Heheh...

   disappointing because it's the last one..

CHAPTER 14) CREDITS SECTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------


I have to thank the following people, companies, sites, inanimate 
objects, horrific demons, and whatever is left over.

COMPANIES
-------------

Nintendo: If you didn't know, you're playing it on their system.

Rareware: They made this awesome game, along with GoldenEye, Donkey Kong 
1-4, Perfect Dark, Blast Corps, Marble Madness, Battletoads, Snake 
Rattle 'n' Roll...and countless other AAA+ titles.  

INTERNET SITES
-----------------

Rareware : Rareware's official site. This is the best 
official company site ever made, for one of the best companies there is 
in the world of video games. This site's tongue-in-cheek humor is 
irresistible! You have to love those Brits...

Gamefaqs : Besides the fact that my massive collection 
of FAQs is there (cough, cough), it is also the largest FAQ site on the 
Internet. Please, if you copy this FAQ, make sure it's from THIS site 
and you keep it updated. If this FAQ has not been updated awhile and 
there's a lot of information missing, make SURE you're not viewing an 
outdated version. Please, for the sake of my e-mail box...

IGN64 : Apparently, I took many of their tips from their 
site...

Cheat Code Central : The biggest video game code 
resource site on planet Earth. 

PEOPLE / HORRIFIC DEMONS
---------------------------

Jeff "CJayC" Veasey : For kindly accepting my 
FAQs, and for making such a cool site. 

Sir Ichaelchu : Informed me about the # 7 
observation for Chapter 13. 

Brian Zabell : I give a BIG thanks to 
this guy for sending me a list of every Gemini Holder in the game. It 
can be found at the bottom of chapter 13.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHAPTER 15) CONTACT INFORMATION
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------


Feel free to contact the insane author of this FAQ, marshmallow, with 
any e-mail, corrections, adorations, admonitions, praise, damnation, 
condemnation, or death threats at: marshmallow@nintendomail.com. I still 
accept mail sent to m_mallow@hotmail.com, but I don't check it as 
regularly as my primary, Nintendonext account.

Basically, there are five different types of e-mail I will receive on a 
daily basis. 

QUESTIONS:
------------
 
I will answer questions to the best of my ability, but not necessarily 
immediately. Who knows...you may get an answer hours after sending it, 
or maybe even weeks. Do not e-mail me telling me to "answer your 
questions", unless you like to be ignored. Also, please realize that I 
 do have a real life outside the Internet. 
School, friends, what have you. Hey, sometimes I might not even get on 
the Internet for a few days if I pick up a hot new game that I enjoy.  

If you ask a question that has been answered in the FAQ, I will most 
definitely ignore it. If your question is poorly written (e.g. "Hez waz 
up, dawg? Got mez uh q!") I will delete it.  Etc., etc...

PRAISE LETTERS: 
-----------------

Hey, you mean people actually receive help from me and like to praise my 
work? Believe me, though I may not reply to it, I do appreciate your 
comments. Though, most people, if they praise me, do it along with a 
question, in which I might reply something like, "Yeah, thanks for the 
support. As for your problem..." 

HATE LETTERS:
---------------
 
I've received very few of these, but it's happened. Chances are high 
that I may not reply, but if you present a valid criticism, I may 
acknowledge your critique. As for those less intellectual letters, heh, 
they're always good for laughs.

JOB APPLICATIONS:
-------------------

Though I can assure you I will be flattered, I will *not* work for your 
site exclusively (or even as a third party). I don't care how much 
money, women, or drugs you offer me, either. No means no, okay?

CHAIN LETTERS: 
----------------

No, I don't care about what kind of whore house your uncle runs. No, I 
don't know who Louie is and why he has a fetish for panties. No, I don't 
think a piano is going to mysteriously appear out of thin air and fall 
on me if I don't send a piece of sh!t letter to other people. No, I 
won't send you cash for a "dying" (yeah, right) kid who is infected with 
brain cancer, though sometimes I wonder if YOU'RE the one with brain 
cancer. No, I don't care about this new, amazing revelation about weight 
loss (my muscle to fat ratio is quite normal, thank you very much). And, 
finally, I will *not* make out with you!  

I apologize for the aforementioned subjects, because they had some 
questionable material. However, considering this is a FAQ for a T rated 
game with copious amounts of blood and violence, I assume you will not 
be offended by a little sexual innuendo. 
 
Sincerely, 
marshmallow
