POWERING UP
Set up your PlayStation® game console according to its Instruction Manual. Make sure the power is off before inserting or removing a compact disc. Insert the MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE™ disc and close the disc cover. Turn the PlayStation on with the POWER button. Once the power is on, it is not advisable to insert or remove peripherals or Memory cards. MAIN MENU
In the IMF File System use the "up" and "down" directional buttons or the left stick to highlight an option. Confirm specific options by pressing the X button. Go back within the menu-screens by pressing the ▲ button.
1 - NEW GAME
Select this option to start a new game. When playing Mission: Impossible for the first time, we suggest that you play the game in the POSSIBLE mode and save the more challenging IMPOSSIBLE mode for later.
DIFFICULTY LEVEL
This screen allows you to select the difficulty level. If you've already played missions at a particular difficulty level, then you'll be allowed to play any level you've already successfully completed, as well as the last level you attempted at that same difficulty level.
Select POSSIBLE for an easy, beginner's level of play. Ethan wears a bulletproof vest and so is less vulnerable to enemy fire; his mission objectives will also be simpler.
Select IMPOSSIBLE if you think you can meet the full challenge of being a real IM Force agent. Enemies will be more cunning and mission objectives more complex. There are, however, special rewards for the elite player.
Mission Selection
Move through the different available missions by using the "up" and "down" directional buttons or the left stick and select one of them with the X Button. Then choose the level you want to play from among those available.
You can always go back to the previous menu with the ▲ Button if you make a wrong choice.
Briefing
This is where the mission is explained. All the moves designed to deceive the enemy are described. Check your briefing carefully in each game level in order not to miss a vital step of the plan. But be careful! If things go wrong, you might have to improvise.
The briefing can take up more space than a single screen. Move the left stick or use the "up" and "down" directional buttons to view the complete text. Press the X button to continue.
Team
Check your team members' profiles in this database to get an insight into their different specialities and their roles in the mission. Move the left stick or use the "left" and "right" directional buttons to display the different files. Press the X button to continue.
Equipment
A very useful file containing information about your IMF equipment, gadgets and weapons. There's also information about some of your enemy's weapons. Make sure you have a look at these files as vital clues can be found here. Move the left stick or use the "left" and "right" directional buttons to display the different files. Press the X button to continue.
NOTE
In all the Mission: Impossible Menus, it's possible to cancel a choice and go back to the previous menu by pressing the ▲ button.
2 - LOAD GAME
When starting the game, you'll access a first screen that looks like a file organizer that we call the IMF File System. You can here access all the main options/menus. You can select saved game files to play a game that has already been started.
Either use the password function or the memory card function. Using a memory card to store a saved game will store additional information such as your game settings. It is however recommended that you write down the passwords as well. Make sure there are enough free blocks on your Memory card before commencing play.
Password
Select the letters of your password from the available set of letters by using the directional buttons or the left stick. Press the X button to confirm your choice or press the O button to delete the previous letter from your password. After entering the password completely, press the X button again to confirm it; the saved game then automatically starts if the password you entered is correct.
Memory Card
The saved games on the current memory card is displayed. Only if there is at least one "Mission: Impossible" game on the current memory card, a "Load game" option is provided.
You can highlight either the "Swap memory card slot" option or the "Load game" option (if applicable) using the left stick or the directional buttons "up" and "down"; pressing the X button will confirm the selected option. When loading a game, use the left stick or the directional buttons to move your cursor to the desired game file and press the X button to load it.
It is recommended that you only remove and insert memory cards while your PlayStation is turned off. NOTE
In all the Mission: Impossible Menus, it's possible to cancel a choice and go back to the previous menu by pressing the ▲ button.
