WEAPON SKILL GOODIES

— Collect 10 of these puppies to

enable Ram to shoot a pair of certain weapons at the same
time. Double targeting and double firepower! Collect loads of
these goodies to win unlimited ammo for different weapons.

NOTE:

See pages 20-21 for a full list of weapons that can be used 

with the dual weapon skill.

COMBO TIMER GOODIES

— These little beauties give you

double combo time to find and waste the next bad guy.

POINTS GOODIE

— Points goodies are scattered everywhere.

A bit of sight-seeing and exploration could reap extra points.
Big scores mean bonus missions and extra pick-ups.

BODY ARMOR

— Collect a body armor goodie to temporarily

increase Ram’s resistance to gunfire. When the 

BLUE

overlay

shrinks to nothing, the protection ends.

HEALTH BOOST

— Find these helpful health boosts —

in small and large sizes — to cure wounds.

EL MARIACHI

— Mariachis ply their trade across Mexico

bringing sweet music to the masses. El Mariachi promises
music but delivers only the final overture in a gangster’s life.

MAD WRESTLER

— Ram is temporarily joined by a fat 

and very angry bat-wielding Mexican wrestler, who isn’t
taking prisoners.

PIÑATA

— Throw this traditional papier mâché effigy to a

gang of hoodlums and watch (from a safe distance) as they
relive their youth and delight at the surprises within!

SOMBRERO OF DEATH

— Ram is temporarily joined by the

Sombrero of Death, who unleashes death and destruction 
all ‘round with his boomstick!

Loco moves are outrageous one-off special moves activated with 

?

,

once you’ve earned or found ‘em. They give short-lived special powers,
so don’t dawdle after you activate one!

(Learn how to use loco moves in the loco moves pit at the Pistoleros
Asociados.)

GOLDEN GUN

— Take enemies out with a single headshot.

You’ve only got four shots and this weapon won’t kill
boss enemies with a single shot, though it inflicts
serious damage.

TORNADO

— Unleash twin-gun fury in a whirlwind spinning

assassination move.

EL TORO

— Ram is blessed with the strength and speed

of a raging bull and rendered temporarily invulnerable
by the 

RED

mist before his eyes. Use 

R

to run into enemies.

Make contact to destroy them instantly.
