    Start by equipping the MP5 and sniping the enemy ahead. Take cover behind the wall to your left and eliminate approaching enemies.

    Move forward towards the TV and collect painkillers. An enemy will emerge from the double doors to the right of the TV; let him retreat, then deal with him and two more who follow.
  3. 3
    Enter the room where the enemies came from, eliminate the thug inside, and return to the first room.

  5. 5
    Proceed to the end of this room, collect painkillers from the cabinet on the right, and enter the door on the left.
  6. 6
    Use Bullet Time for headshots. Prioritize the thug on the right, then the one in the middle, and finally the one at the far end. Look up and snipe the thug on the top floor with the MP5.
  7. 7
    Go up the stairs on the left to the first floor. Move to the other end of the room and enter the double doors on the right. Eliminate the two thugs who will emerge.

  10. 10
    Return to the previous room and go to the far right to find ammo behind a large box.
  11. 11
    Go back through the doorway and up the staircase. Kill the lone thug at the top floor and proceed through the double doors.
  12. 12
    Move forward, up a small set of stairs, and enter the room on the left. Eliminate the two thugs inside and collect ammo and painkillers.
  13. 13
    Enter the door on the right. Go to the back of the room, through the passage of boxes, to find and kill two more thugs.
  14. 14
    Use the shelves for cover and eliminate the four thugs who will come through the door on the right between the shelves.
  15. 15
    Proceed through that door, go down the stairs to the bottom, and enter the next door. Use Bullet Time to kill the three thugs inside.
  16. 16
    Collect all available weapons, check the van, watch TV, and go through the double doors on the right.
  17. 17
    Go up the stairs and kill the thug encountered. From the last set of stairs, use the MP5 to snipe the thug you see.
  18. 18
    Peek over the top of the stairs to find a thug on the left beyond the boxes; kill him and proceed up.
  19. 19
    Turn left and go up the stairs. Kill the thug at the top.
  20. 20
    Continue up and around the box. Peek around the corner to find two thugs behind crates at the far end. Use a grenade or shoot them. Proceed to the top floor.
  21. 21
    Collect all ammo and go left. Turn right into the corridor. Enter the first door on the right and use Bullet Time to kill the two thugs inside. A cut-scene will play, followed by a graphic novel segment.
