Code notes: These codes can be activated during game play in any
mission. The codes are based on memory sentences (mnemonics) where
the letters A, B, and C are the corresponding
buttons on the controller, and E is RS. To initiate the
secret codes, press and release B to fire the laser. Press
P to pause the game while the laser is visible on the screen.
(Note that the codes will not work if B and P were
pressed at the same time.) Now, press RS(2), B,
A, B, RS, A, C, A (mnemonic:
THREEBABES IN ACAR). After entering
the code, press X. Instead of stopping, the game will continue
in cheat mode. Cheat mode must be entered after each mission is
started in order for all other codes to work.
