Resident Evil 2

"* "Small Keys are for locked desks, which usually have First Aid Sprays in them, so you can dump them in a box (I can't remember a time I didn't have a bunch of healing items).

- You'll find the storage boxes in most of the save point rooms (looks like a huge metal box).

- The knife is useless except for plot points.

- I think there is an item storage chest near the stairs that leads to the statues. You have to go past a few zombies in that hallway far to the right, before the foot of the steps.

- Don't pick up everything as you will backtrack enough times for the plot.

- You can get through the very first section of the game barely using any ammo and killing any zombies. Do it.

- Leave small keys in storage boxes unless you know what you are going to unlock with it.

- There are boxes that look like chests that you can store stuff in, they are usually in save rooms

- Ammo is pretty rare starting out, but after a while, you will have tons of the stuff.

- Certain zombies can be and should be left alone. If you are in a big area, just run around them. I usually always kill lickers though. Dogs are your discretion. They are usually idling about and you can safely run past them if you know where you are going.

- Check the bodies of people laying around. They usually have ammo and stuff on them.

- Most important to remember is that once you go through the game the first time, it becomes piss easy to go through the second time because you know what is where, where all the ammo is, when you can use your ammo, and you will know what you need to bring before you get to the actual puzzle.

- If it's your first time playing the game then ditching the knife when you can is good idea. However the knife is still useful for some areas, especially before you get to the police station. In any area that you can safely get something to block you from the zombies you can use the knife to kill them and thus save your ammo. The most obvious part is when you need to climb over a dumpster that is blocking the an alley. Two zombies will approach you while you're on top of the dumpster. They won't be able to hit you so just stab the fuckers.
