PrinceWatercress plays PK: Out of the Shadows (PS2) - Part 4 of 13

If you've wanted a bigger change of scenery than what you've seen so far, beating this stage will do just that. I just wish there was more in terms of storytelling.

Frozen Mine

2:17 - Watch out for the rocks that fall after the first checkpoint. They'll make holes in the makeshift bridge, forcing to jump over the fluorescent purple instant death goop.

2:44 - You'll have two scientists to save here. One is in a cave to the left of the huge mine cart, while the other is in the mine cart itself. Thankfully, you can jump into the side of the mine cart and vault PK up to the scientist inside.

3:04 - If you're wondering where to go next, it's here.

3:52 - Question mark time! Blow up the cylinders to the right while avoiding the Evronian soldier, who is flashing blue. Inside is another upgrade for the Remote X-Transformer: a charge shot that you can only use if your health is high enough (as indicated by the green bar on the right side of the health meter). You'll be able to practice using the charge shot on the barrier. From there, hold down the Square button when the Evronian soldier stops firing, then fire at it with regular shots while it is stunned until the shield comes back up, then avoid the enemy shots and repeat the pattern. If you need more health to flip up any amount of the green bar - which needs to be filled up to any capacity in order to use the charge shot, just keep firing regular shots at the Evronian soldier. You'll get a little bit of health eventually. Just don't get hit trying to get it.

7:18 - The game suddenly changes to a forced 2D perspective here, so be careful jumping over the gaps and avoiding the searchlights. 

9:07 - Take out the Evronian, progress, then turn around when you see the earthquake. Take out the enemies here and rescue the three scientists. At least the Evronian soldiers here don't have shields.

12:07 - Take out the Coolflames and shoot down the cylinders to rescue the last scientist.

12:55 - As soon as you make it outside, One shows up to tell you that he has sensed activity in the Nevada Desert. What's going on? He doesn't tell you. You just go there.
