Before We Begin...
Spoiler alert! This strategy guide includes the last few levels of Syphon 3 where a surprise is uncorked. Also, because Syphon 3 is much more action-focused than previous missions, this ProStrategy Guide doesn't walk you through the game step-by-step-it jumps around to cover the key points that'll help you complete the objectives with your skin intact.

If you ever can't figure out what to do next, pause the game,open the map, and use the directional pad to cycle through the locations of the objectives-a lot of important info is conveyed this way.

Hotel Fukushima

When you begin sniping from the window of Room 413, first crouch and focus on the enemies on the top floors of the hotel-crouching prevents you from taking fire from the lower floors of the hotel. When the upper floors are clear, stand up and mop up the lower ?oors.
The Falcon might seem like a wee little pistol, but its one-shot kills make it a huge help in mowing down this level's enemies as you descend the stairs and battle through the hotel?s basement.

Rhoemer's Hidden Plantation

All the automated turrets that you have to disable with grenades have a conveniently positioned tree nearby. Use the tree for cover while you line up a grenade lob.
To disable the enemy chopper, stand in front of its nose and tap triangle when the "Helicopter Engine" text tag appears.
Open the map for Rhoemer's Hidden Plantation.

After you collect the plant sample transport kits, grab the mine detector on the other side of the same room-you need it to exit the level. For the next objective, the locations of the three plant samples vary each time you play the level. The eight possible locations are marked by red dots on the map above.
When you get to the general region marked by the red dots, look for an area of fern-like plants covered overhead by netting, which we'll call "gardens." Each dot may have as many as three gardens-the gardens without any ?res burning are where you collect the samples.When you're ready to use the alternate exit, watch the indicators on your radar screen and use the directional pad to maneuver through the minefield-it enables more precise control over your movement.

Rhoemer's C-5 Galaxy Transport

When Rhoemer runs by you, don't follow him. Instead, go up the stairs he came down and into the cockpit. Kill the copilot but not the pilot, and then pull the cargo door switch, which is located on the instrument panel in the corner. Descend the stairs, grab the UAS-12 from the crate, and then pursue Rhoemer to the tail of the plane. If you beat Syphon 2, this battle will be most familiar. Rhoemer's armor makes him invincible, so the only way to get rid of him is to use the UAS-12's powerful blasts to knock him out the tail door of the plane.
Approach Rhoemer from an angle such that your shots propel him back through the door. Wait until you get reasonably close to him, then charge in, firing on full auto until he's knocked out of the plane.

Pugari Gold Mine

You're parachuting in directly over a crane. Land atop it, take out the enemy there, and run to the edge of the crane. You'll automatically jump across to the ledge where the explosives are located in a crate. When you're ready to climb down after collecting the explosives, look for the text tag that reads, "Climb Down," and carefully lower yourself over the edge there; try it anywhere else, and you'll die. Then just use the map to proceed toward Mine 411 and set the charges. Even though they're listed as objectives, don't worry about freeing the second group of slaves or interrogating Foreman Jones-you handle that in the next level.
