Having played Gunblade New York and LA Machine Guns several times already,
maybe I'd better help Beginners avoid spending too much money on this game
since this is a deluxe arcade machine. The Problem: Gunblade New York may
cost as much as $1.00 to play. The solution: This Document

========================================================================
DESCRIPTION OF GUNBLADE NY
Gunblade New York is an eye-popping, chase-oriented, futuristic-style
Military Gun Shooting game that pits you as a sniper of sorts against a
horde of crazy Android Terrorists who are causing nothing but trouble in
a futuristic large city in the United States of America. Gunblade NY
was pretty popular at the arcades mainly because you can shoot down the
enemy missiles and as you destroy the crazy androids, you are "locked"
through the android so that you can destroy them one ata time.
Gunblade offers two missions (Easy and Hard) and also features a Solo
Playing "Score Attack Remix" (resulting in various storylines). Each
mission has four areas that you must clear up. Gunblade NY is a 2-player
Simultaneous Game so if you're regaining the UN HQ or if you are trying
to sabatoge the remaining terrorists, a second sniper can join in.
Gunblade was released in 1996 as AM3's answer to AM2's Virtua Cop. LA
Machine Guns was just released as the sequel to Gunblade. Gunblade runs
under Model 2 while LA Machine Guns runs under Model 3 Step 2. Although
many players would prefer to play LA Machine Guns now, I have many reasons
why I have to write this.
This document was intended for the beginner player since I don't want you
to spend about $1,000 on this game. With that kind of money, you can spend
that for the Adobe GraphicStudio Collection (http://www.adobe.com). This
is an expensive machine, so be sure that you read this over and over again
before trying your luck at your local arcade.
========================================================================
STORY:
July of 2005
------------
The UNGA was going to start and all citizens are welcome to participate
in this meeting/convention in all accounts. Policemen are guarding the
UN HQ so that people would be safe. Unfortunately, while everything seems
to be looking good, a mysterious cargo provider known as Bear EX began to
attack Times Square without warning in hopes of taking over the United
Nations HQ. They clearly state unless they are granted total control over
the United States, they will wage war against the other nations.
Somewhere at the Lower New York Bay, SAAF begins to hear about the mischief
that the Bear EX Company were doing at Downtown New York. The Federal
Government orders the SAAF to destroy the Bear EX group and free the UN
HQ at all accounts.
You are permitted full destruction against workers of the Bear EX Empire.
Unfortunately, we don't know what race they are, but we are going to do
so during gameplay.
========================================================================
HOW TO PLAY
- Insert your tokens and press either Start Button. If two players want
to play at the same time, Insert enough coins for two players, and press
both start buttons at the same time to start.
- UN HQ Recovery and Big Apple Liberation are available for two-player
simultaneous play. The Score Attack Remix can only be played as a one
player solo game.
- Every time you get attacked by missiles, you lose one life. If the red
sighting is detected, missiles will come. The game ends if you lose
all of your allotted lives.
- You can continue your game ONLY ON THE UN HQ RECOVERY AND THE BIG APPLE
LIBERATION missions. There is no continue feature in the Score Attack
Remix.
- Move the gun to aim, and pull trigger to fire. You have unlimited
ammunition, so slam the terrorists continuously!!!
========================================================================
GAME TIPS
- If you try to hit the terrorist, the lackey will try to evade you as
much as you can. Don't do any unnecessary firing or the Terrorist will
just run away from you and find a safe place to attack. The best time
to fire is when the Terrorist attacks you. Even though the terrorist
falls down, just keep on slamming on him and don't lose him. This way
you can save time.
- The Enemy Missiles can be shot. Be careful of certain enemies who love
to attack from up close.
- When an insane number of Terrorists attack, try to hit foes at their
weak spot, the Head.
- Use objects to destroy a large number of Terrorists. Keep in mind that
certain enemies will try to jump over the explosion, so think twice
before trying to blow an object up.
========================================================================
REGAINING THE UNITED NATIONS HEADQUARTERS (Easy Mission)
Scenario: The Bear EX Company have attacked Times Square in lieu of taking
over the UN. As soon as they take over the UN HQ at New York, they will
demand the US Government that they want total dictatorship over this nation
or the nuclear strike will be imminent.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Area 1: Times Square
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission: Attack reinforcing Terrorists
This is the area that you can get used to the play mechanics of the game.
Try to hit the terrorists with the least possible effort and make sure
that the spy cam doesn't dodge away from the Terrorist or you will be
wasting time. Fire as much as you want, but it would be nice if you
fired wisely since terrorists escape from your fire and try to find a
safe spot.
When you destroy the first wave of Human-like Terrorists, a helicopter
containing Orange Suits will approach for reinforcement. Try to destroy
the helicopter because if you don't do so, then another wave of Orange
Suits will attack later on. The Orange Suits are bad news: They dodge
fire by using acrobatic dodging skills. Try not to do any unnecessary
firing that they dodge you all of a sudden.
After the first wave of Orange Suits, more terrorists will appear and
attack you. During the middle of the remaining wave of Human-like
Terrorists, another wave of Orange Suit Terrorists will attack you if
you have not yet destroyed the helicopter. Try to neutralize the
terrorists with the least possible effort.
After you destroy all the terrorists at Times Square, you will be
notified that a Bear EX Truck will approach, since they are not happy
with your progress so far.
Boss 1: Terrorists inside the truck
-----------------------------------
This boss is SIMPLE. Just ignore other terrorists (be sure to down the
Enemy Missiles) and hit the middle terrorist between the two escorts.
When the middle terrorist is destroyed, all other terrorists go down
as well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Area 2: Midtown Manhattan Day
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission: Destroy the AA Site under construction
When you regain control of the game, two fat terrorists will be attacking
you with nothing but heavy missiles. This is a good time to practice
hitting terrorists at the head. Now you will continue to advance towards
the wave of sorry lackeys who are easy to destroy. When you get into the
Taxi Intersection, Orange Suits will be attacking you. Trouble, they will
waste time by dodging your gunfire. Solution: Line them up at the taxi
and blow the Taxi up to destroy them more easily.
Once you off the Orange Suits, keep slamming on the remaining terrorists
(they don't show up in horrible groups) until you approach another group
of orange suits. They will run towards the burning Taxis, hit the orange
suits while they are running scared.
Close to the end of the area, you will have to deal with flying terrorists
who will try to slam you up close. Also, a huge group of Orange Suits
will be attacking alongside the Flying Terrorists, so this is something
to worry about. Anyway, off them out and clear the area before facing
the second boss in the mission.
Boss: The Laser Sniper
----------------------
Well, it looks like that the AA Site is completed. No big deal. All you
have to do is to just hit the sniper behind the Sniper Gun. Ignore the
accompanying terrorist next to the Sniper Gunner (but just kill his
missiles) and pay attention to the Sniper Gunner on top of the Sniper
Gun. If you destroy the Sniper Gunner, then everything else goes down
as well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Area 3: United Nations Headquarters
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission: Neutralize Terrorists before they try to take control of it!
Well, it seems that we are now approaching enemy territory on the second
half of regaining the United States HQ.
When you begin, you will attack at the side of the United Nations HQ
entrance. The terrorists will approach from the right side, and will
continue on to the introduction of the White Suits. White Suits are
bad news--they are as efficient as Orange Suits, but they are a lot
faster and they will attack you up close.
When you approach the grass area, a huge tank vehicle will try to attack
along with two terrorists. Destroy the tanker first, then the terrorists.
Now you will approach the Heliport dealing with nothing but White Suits.
The key here is to take the White Suits with less effort. Be sure not
to let them use their acrobatic skills to dodge your gunfire, and try to
take them one at a time. This would be a good time to hit them in the
head.
Now you will go through two more terrorists on top of a building extension.
Don't worry: These terrorists are not as powerful as with the White Suits.
At the final stretch of the area, you will face the terrorists who have
attacked Times Square at the Demo of the game. Just take these terrorists
like you would with the normal terrorists. Trash all terrorists and you
clear the stage. There is no boss in the area, but a cargo ship will be
escaping, so get moving and prevent Bear EX from retreating from a failed
mission!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Area: Cargo Ship
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission: Destroy Enemy Headquarters
The first thing that you will encounter are two Sniper Gunners. Deal
with them like you would with the end of Area 2. The problem is that
there are two of them, so take them one at a time.
Now you will be taking terrorists at the back engine compartment outside
the Cargo Ship. Some terrorists will fall down the water and will destroy
themselves but you will waste time that way so it's wise to trash them
with your own hands.
You will eventually approach the top of the ship and trash two more lackeys
before going to the front of the ship to trash a whole bunch of terrorists.
These terrorists will attack in groups so it's a good idea to try to hit
them in the head, and try to take them one at a time.
Now you are at the middle of the ship trashing two final terrorists until
you hear a warning, which means that the Bear EX Leader has popped out of
the Cargo Ship, meaning that high energy readings were detected from the
cargo all along.
Boss: The Leader
----------------
This one's hard: He shoots several missiles in succession and you have to
hit him at the cockpit. Be sure to shoot the missiles before hitting the
cockpit since this guy can end your game in a flash. Patiently hit him
in the cockpit until he's down, and your mission is completed!
Although we are finished regaining the United Nations HQ, we have yet to
destroy the remaining terrorists who are scheduled to start a coup d'etat
after the takeover of the UN HQ. More on this later.
========================================================================
BIG APPLE LIBERATION (Hard Mission)
Scnenario: It's been a day or so since we've regained the UNHQ. Since
then, Bear EX has been expecting confirmation that the UNHQ has been
gained by them. There has been no answer, knowing that their allies
have been destroyed by the SAAF. Their HQ has been destroyed by them
as well. This is bad news now that they have to reinforce somewhere
at a place where authorities will not spot them.
We have confirmed that these terrorists are not human after all--THEY
ARE ANDROIDS CREATED BY A SINGLE PROFESSIONAL MADMAN who is the sole
proprietor of the company!!!
It's time to destroy these guys before they try to reattack the UNHQ
and try to take over and follow up on their demands until they succeed
by using their reserve forces.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Area 1: Brooklyn Bridge
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission: Impede the regrouping of the Terrorists
This is a very short area involving chasing a few terrorists and fighting
out a helicopter leading the way.
Orange Suits: They drive motorcycles now, you need to be careful not to
have them jump over the road and swaying left and right which hurts your
accuracy and wastes time. Try to hit the Orange Suit while he's on the
ground and slam them. Take them out one at a time.
About the men who appear at the back of the vehicles: Deal with them like
you would with the other terrorists in UNHQ Recovery.
The Terrorists in the Jeeps: Try to hit the driver but be sure to hit
the missiles. Hitting the driver in the head ensures that the jeep will
be destroyed.
Boss 1: The Helicopter
----------------------
An easy boss to destroy, but hard because of the continuous missile attacks.
It's hard to get away unscathed mainly because two missiles come out in
succession. Try to hit the helicopter in the cockpit to reduce firing times.
You will be warned that Battery Park is where the terrorists are gathering
up to do a repeat attack at the UNHQ. Let's move!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Area 2: Battery Park
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission: Seize Terorists' Beachhead
You will move around the Battery Park and eventually learn a way to destroy
the terrorists in an efficient manner.
Facing Terrorists on top of the Cargo that has yet to be moved: Try to
kill the terrorist without having them fall away from the cargo. This way
you can save some time.
Facing Terrorists on the floor: Try to hit them in the head since they now
attack in groups. Make sure that you are taking them one at a time and
try not to get attacked by a high number of terrorists.
Once you are finished, a Rocket Launching Vehicle will come to launch a
nuclear missile!!!
Boss 2: Vehicle
---------------
Note: If you don't destroy the Vehicle, you will receive the "bad" ending.
Destroy the two terrorists guarding the vehicle and then hit the vehicle
continuously. Do it before you hear the Area Clear Music to ensure the
"good" ending later on.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Area 3: Grand Army Plaza
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission: Destroy the remaining terrorists and their cargo
When you start the area, you will be greeted by a few black suits and a
(ARGH) Sniper Gunner. Hit the Sniper Gunner first and then take care of
the Black Suits. Black Suits are even bad news: They roll to avoid your
attacks and they laugh at object explosions. Try only to hit them when
they are trying to attack you and take them out one at a time.
You will then be greeted by some white suits, a fat terrorist, and
another wave of Black Suits. Treat the White Suits and the Fat Terrorist
like you would in Easy Area 3. After the White Suits and the Fat Guy
are defeated, you will have to contend with the Black Suits. Now you
will face about 3-4 Female Soldiers who are insanely agile and attack
aggressively. These mechanized villiannesses are bad news: They dodge
attacks and react quick when you fire. Try to hit these girls at their
heads so that you waste less time with them. When only one mechanized
girl is left, you will know that a helicopter is going to drop a few
White Suits. Quickly destroy the mechanized female and destroy the
chopper before it drops a few White Suits to waste time. If you failed
to destroy the chopper before it drops the terrorists, no big deal. Just
deal with them like you would with the other White Suits in the Easy Game.
WARNING!!! A truck is carrying the leader of the terrorists, who was
thought to be dead after the Easy Mission!!! He isn't going to give in
this time around.
Boss 3: The Leader
------------------
The leader will attack you the same way he did in Easy Level 4, so be
sure to utilize the same tactics. Try to line him up near the Oil
Barrels and blow them up so you can inflict lots of damage. If he
is seriously damaged, he'll just get away this time around.
We only have a few more terrorists remaining at Midtown Manhattan in
the Night. Let's show these bozos what we are made of!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Area: Midtown Manhattan Night
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission: Cleaning up New York from the Bear EX Clutter remaining
The Leader is not giving up that easily and this is probably the hardest
level in all of Gunblade NY since the foes show NO MERCY, attack in
groups, and are fast, and love to attack up close. Only two types of
enemies appear in this area: Female Androids, and Flying Androids.
Female Androids: They love to attack in groups and use fast reflexes to
get away from your gunfire. They attack up close and more aggressively
than before. Since you are facing a high number of terrorists at the
same time, it's a good idea to hit the terrorists in their heads now,
though this won't be easy since they are surprisingly agile.
Flying Terrorists: Flying Terrorists are bad news. Female and Flying
Androids attacking at the same time and through a group is a disaster!
They make up for most of the area, so try to take them out one at a time.
The best way is to hit them continuously and strive to hit them in the
head.
Overall this area is a pain mainly because they are persistent and
agile.
When you destroy all terrorists remaining here, get ready to face a
tough leader!!!
Final Boss: Leader flying high in the sky
-----------------------------------------
He's a lot harder to hit this time around because depending on the cam
angle, you may not be able to hit him. He'll fly through certain areas
and through certain cams, but his missiles will be a lot faster than
before!!! If you can't hit him, then hit the missiles, since they will
damage you. Again, the weakest point is the cockpit. Only the most
powerful snipers will free New York from the Bear EX Clutter. You must
be valiant to be victorious!!!
Well, that about wraps it up. Happy Android Killing!!!

LINKING TO GAMEFAQS.COM
Listen, I'M GETTING SICK AND TIRED OF PEOPLE LINKING DIRECTLY TO TEXT
(OR ZIP/HQX) DOCUMENTS AT GAMEFAQS (as well as any other Text Document
that everybody offers throughout the net)!!!!!! Because many people
haven't read the fine print at GameFAQs.com, you must remember the
"Feel free to link to this page, but NOT to the individual FAQs to this
site!!!" at the bottom of each HTML/ASP Document.
The best way to locate my Gunblade NY Document at GameFAQs.com is to
type down http://www.gamefaqs.com, click on Search, type down "Gunblade

the Gunblade NY Data Pages. AGAIN, DON'T LINK TO THE TEXT FILE, AS I
DETEST THIS AS MUCH AS THE WEBMASTER DOES!!!
Part of the reason why I'm doing this is because if you don't view an
HTML Site, then you may not be able to run the ads that appear on top
of the HTML Document, which IS NO FAIR TO THE WEBMASTER. For details
