Advent Rising Staff Room
This secret is located in Chapter 4 - The Awakening - Part E. Through this
level there is a series of 3 buttons which much be activated in this
order...
Button 1 - In the room with the 3 shock troopers the 1st button, as
you enter the room, is on the back of the right top portion of the area
that holds rocket launchers in about the middle. You may have to tilt the
camera upward to see this area. Destroy the black object to reveal the
1st button.
Button 2 - In the room after you fight the 2 Seeker Elites, go to the
locked door and do a charge jump to the area above the door. There is a
button on the ground all the way at the end of this area. Destroy the
black object first.
Button 3 - Right before you meet up with Enorym in the room with the dead
Aurelian. Jump to the bottom, below the platform, and go to the furthest
column in the back to find a button behind it.
Backtrack to the previous room, and a new door is unlocked. Go inside to
find the Advent Rising staff room complete with pictures of the AR staff
by each console. Activate the consoles inside the room in this order to
get an image of a ninja wailing on a guitar in the middle of the room...
Console 1 - guy with the white guitar
Console 2 - guy with the black-rimmed glasses
Console 3 - guy with the wooded background
Console 4 - person with the long black hair
Console 5 - guy with mustache and beard
Console 6 - guy holding up the "Utah County Sheriff" sign
Console 7 - guy with spiky hair and glasses (Donald Mustard)

Level 4B Mario Pipe
There are Mairo Warp Pipes hidden throughout the game, one of which is in
Chapter 4, Level B. To reach it, you must hit 6 switches:
Switch 1: From your begining point there is a black object on the wall in
front of you. If you blow it up, the 1st switch will be revealed.
Switch 2: Continuing through the level, you pass under a large gun, ad
then walk into an open area with 3 more black objects. Blow up the one in
the corner opposite the area's entrance, and the 2nd switch is
revealed.
Switch 3: From the location of the 2nd switch, go up the small ramp and
wait for 2 bridges to appear. Each bridge is on one side of another large
gun. Do a charged jump from the bridge to a platform above the gun. There
is a hidden room here which houses the 3rd switch and an enemy.
Switch 4: If you continue through the level, you will come across an area
where enemies spawn from 3 doors: 2 small ones on your right and a large
door in the distance. The large door leads to a tunnel (for a reference
point, the door is under a turret), which contains the 4th switch.
Switches 5 & 6: Continue through the level until you reach a point where
you must hit a switch to create a bridge. Make the bridge and begin
walking down it. While walking across the bridge, look to your right, and
you will see an alcove with 2 more large explosive objects in it. Blow
both of these up to reveal the final 2 switches. Hit the switch closer to
the beginning of the bridge first, as they must be ht in order through the
level.
A previously locked door is now open at the end of the bridge, and the
pipe is now accessbile.
