wow, i feel like a real idiot, but i'm in a sticky situation here.. i'm stuck in south down town, or whatever, and i'm am in the apartments in persuit of the snatcher that killed my partner. i had just saved the lady from the robots, and followed for a while, and now something has her hostage.. i've shot everything i can shoot, and anything else to get the last 38 life off of him would involve shooting her, which as i remember, is a bad idea.. so, could someone please tell me where i've gone wrong before i shoot her in her giant blue eye? thanks.

Use the C-Killer to stop him moving for a while.... shoot the arm that holds the girl with the needle gun... when the arm is destroyd the girl is free.
The effect of the C-Killer is worn off by now.... Well shoot that robo to pieces..

hey, thanks a million. worked wonders.. its amazing how much you forget about these games after a mere 10 or so years.
