Once you finish the entire game the first time and you see the credits, the next time you start a game using the final save (the one you make after the credits) you can buy equipment and parts that would normally make your mech overweight. You will then be able to use your overweight mech the next time you play. Now you can finally create the mech you've always wanted!

In the single player Arena mode you can steal your defeated opponent's emblem. To do this you of course have to beat an opponent in the Arena, then once beaten you can go back to the opponent selection screen where everyone is ranked by number. Highlight and select someone you have defeated and then press START + SELECT and you should hear a sound. Press the two buttons again and again until you hear the sound. Once you hear the sound go to the Edit Emblem screen and the emblem selected will be the one you just took from your opponent. You can then edit it or just wear it as your own.

Human Plus is back. Just drop to -50000 credits and an experiment will be done on you. You need to do this multiple times to get the full benifit. warning, this will restart your game (except for the first mission)

• 1st time: Automatic Radar
  
• 2nd time: Ability To Throw The Laserblade
  
• 3rd time: Have Heat Taken Away From Attack

Human Plus Upgrades don't stop after the sixth time. Repeat the process for getting the upgrades as usual. Between the seventh and ninth time, not only will you be able to throw your laser blade, but it will be a 3-way shot! Also, there will be a missile display added to your radar. And you thought a single laser blade was cool!

Lose the first mission intentionally (after the Raven test), and lose 50,000 credits or more to activate the "Plus" cheats. Now when you restart your game you'll begin with all of the items you collected during your first play through the game. Repeat the cheat to gain other abilities, such as an improved radar, and the ability to fire back-mounted weapons while running.

To engage the Limiter Release, press and hold R2 and L2, then press R3. Your energy gauge will not deplete over the next forty seconds. After that, however, you will be unable to use any energy for 50 seconds. Great for a final surge at the end of a battle.
