Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From your current position, strafe out and take pot shots at the enemies. Be wary of anyone who tries to enter the corridor and attack you.
  2. 2
    With three of the four thugs dead, shoot-dodge into the room facing the left side and kill the final enemy.
  3. 3
    Pick up all weapons and use the keypad to open the door.
  4. 4
    An enemy will be standing in the doorway with his back to you; kill him, but be prepared for the remaining three enemies in the room to attack.
  5. 5
    Hang back in your current room and kill each of the three enemies as they appear at the doorway, one at a time, using your pump-action shotgun.
  6. 6
    When the vault is clear, explore the main area and interact with the control panel.
  7. 7
    Answer the phone on the table for a graphic novel cinematic between Max and deputy chief Jim Bravura.
  8. 8
    Collect the three painkillers on the table across from the telephone.
  9. 9
    Shoot out the siren on the ceiling to stop the noise.
  10. 10
    Use the controls on the control panel to operate the individual vault doors. Vault C contains the Aesir Corp bonds.
  11. 11
    The detonators are on the table in Vault A. Pick them up.
  12. 12
    Head back through Vault B to the old Roscoe Street Station.
  13. 13
    At the bottom of the stairs leading to the beginning of the level, three guys will appear at the top and open fire.
  14. 14
    Peek out from behind the wall and shoot back at them. Listen for the metallic clank of a grenade hitting a wall, and immediately retreat into the room and wait for it to explode.
  15. 15
    Use bullet time to defeat the three enemies who have the advantage of higher ground and cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects).
  16. 16
    When they are dead, pick up their weapons, including a grenade.
  17. 17
    Check the door across from you and set the detonators by pressing the Action Button while standing in front of it to destroy the door and complete the level.
  18. 18
    The next section begins with Max meeting Alex. A locked gate separates them.
  19. 19
    As you face the gate and Alex, three thugs are waiting at the top of the stairs on the right. They will not attack until you move away from the gate. Equip your Berettas.
  20. 20
    Strafe out and kill the only visible guy, then hide in one of the corners at the bottom of the stairs.
  21. 21
    When the remaining two thugs appear, shoot-dodge out and kill them.
  22. 22
    Across from the stairway is a ticket booth with four painkillers in a cabinet. Pick them up.
  23. 23
    Head up the stairs and follow the hall until you reach the corner.
  24. 24
    Strafe out and take shots to draw the four guys in the next room to you.
  25. 25
    Hang back about fifteen feet and kill each of them as they appear at the bottom of the stairs. One might throw a grenade, but it should land in the stairwell and not be a major threat.
  26. 26
    With the four guys dead, head up the stairs and check the ticket booth in the center of the room.
  27. 27
    Collect four more painkillers from a cabinet.

    Follow the corridor down until you reach the street.
  30. 30
    Return to Lupino's hotel to look for the mob boss. You find out your cover has been blown.
  31. 31
    You are backed into a corner with little protection from two mobsters. One Finito will run across the room to attack; be ready with your current weapon.
  32. 32
    When he is dead, strafe out from behind the wall with your Berettas. The other Finito Brother is behind an overturned desk; aim high and fire.
  33. 33
    Open the safe against the wall and pick up the painkiller.
  34. 34
    Read the letter on the desk from Vinnie Gognitti, which mentions a Valkyr deal going down and increased security at the hotel, including Rico Muerte in Room 313.
  35. 35
    After the graphic novel cinematic, thugs will call into the room from the hallway.
  36. 36
    Crouch down and keep your crosshairs focused on the door. When they enter, use a shotgun shell on the three of them.
  37. 37
    Head down the stairs and listen to the radio report on the counter. All doors are locked, so break through the window.
  38. 38
    On the balcony, follow it left until you reach a door.
  39. 39
    Three of Lupino's thugs are in the hallway and will fire as soon as you are spotted. The door provides protection while closed.
  40. 40
    Equip a Beretta and shoot the red pipe on the right side of the hall. The explosion will kill all three thugs.

    Enter the last door on the right.
