Defeating the final Boss:
-------------------------
Do not be intimidated by its size. Though massive, it is very easy to kill.
The following was done under the Medium difficulty setting. Upon starting 
the fight, notice you are "caged in" by the Boss' tentacles. Notice the 
yellow "blooms" around the Boss' mouth. Shooting each one will get you 
closer to killing it. However, upon shooting a few of them, the boss Grabs
you, holding you in the air. During this time, it appears that you are 
helpless. Aim whatever weapon you are using at the time and shoot the yellow
blooms. After a few shots you will be dropped. The Boss will then begin 
slamming its tentacles at you more frequently. They are very easy to avoid. 
Strafe left to right constantly. They will never hit you. The Boss will roar,
shoot a few exploding cells at you, or will drop enemy pods upon you. This 
is part is also easy, considering it is usually only two small Necromorphs.
After you destroy the blooms, you will notice a "caged" area underneath the
beast. Under this rib cage lies its many hearts. Again, use same strategy 
with the whole tentacle scenario. After a few times, the Boss will have 
his fit and open up again. Unload and the Boss will come tumbling down.


Hidden message:
---------------
Take the first letter of each chapter and arrange them in order to spell 
out the sentence "Nicole is dead".


Help With The Hunter:
---------------------
Ok, so we all hate the hunter. If you don't know, he is a regenerating 
necromorph that cannot be killed. The first time you encounter him is tough,
and you just have to run. I found that it is best to shoot of his legs because
he doesn't regenerate them immediately and he is much slower without legs. 
Then you freeze him and he gets taken away. He comes back in a later act, so 
use the same strategy and then fry him with the Rocket engines. That will be 
the end of him.  Don't forget the Power Node the Hunter drops.


To Kill the Leviathan:
---------------------- 
First, take out the tentacles. Then when the center opens aim for the orange 
ball. Grab the explosive canisters, and launch them in the center, or grab the
lathan pod and launch it into the center.
