When you choose the normal story mode from the title screen and can choose either Normal Play or Time Attack, shoot anywhere off-screen. The words EASY will appear next to the Normal Play mode on the screen. This gives you five hits in the game instead of three.

If you have a racing controller with a foot pedal, plug it into the second controller port and use the foot pedal to duck. It's the closest you can get to the arcade without buying a stand-up console.

If you don't have a foot pedal, try this but be sure to take off your shoes first. Plug a normal controller in Port 2, and place it on the floor where you can reach it. You can now step on any of the buttons (X, O, etc) and that will make your character hide.

At the title screen, after you've calibrated your gun, fire two shots into the center of the empty part of the letter "R" in the word Crisis". Once that's done, fire another two shots at the center of the crosshairs above the title.

THIS MAY ONLY WORK IN THE AMERICAN VERSION.

This code allows you to shoot EXACTLY where you point the gun on the screen. First, insert the Time Crisis CD. Before you turn it on, make sure a regular PlayStation controller is in Control port #1. Turn the PlayStation on, and when it gets to the main screen, unplug the controller, and replace it with the GunCon gun. Your shots should now be exactly on the mark, making it a LOT easier to activate the debug code.

If at any time during the game you make 50 shots on target in a row you will recieve a life-up. You will see the life-up forming after about ten straight hits on target then it gets darker and eventually becomes a solid life up.

There are three occurances where you can quickly kill all enemies on the screen. 1)Stage 1 Area 1:At the end, where all the enemies are hiding behind and around the lift ( the yellow construction machine ), shoot the box that's on the lift. 2)Stage 1 Area 3:After the car tries to run you over ( or you destroy the car ), you see a bunch of guys and a bomber. Shoot the box that the bomber is right next to on the ground. 3)Stage 3 Area 1:After you've jumped out the door, you'll see some guys hiding behind a construction site on the right side, a bunch of I-Beams held together by a strip. Shoot the strip off.
