Umbilical Cable

Since the Evas cannot operate for five minutes on low power mode or one minute on full power mode, The Evas need the Umbilical Cable connected on their backs to supply them with power indefinitely. In the game, the moment you are grabbed or knocked down (conditional in some missions) you lose your umbilical cable and will only have the ability to fight for five minutes.

AT Field

The Angels have a barrier known only as the AT (Absolute Terror) Field which makes them almost impervious to some conventional weapons. Nerv incorporated that capability into the Eva Units making the Evas the only thing that can stand up to an Angel attack.
The vertical bar to the left of your live screen is the ATF gauge. Orange means you can raise your ATF and You cant when its green. It takes time to charge your ATF so the longer your ATF is up, it takes twice as long to charge it. Pressing and holding down C-down button will raise your AT Field. Useful when you can't dodge or attack in time. If you're close enough, you can tear through an Angels AT Field if you raise it when you're close enough and if its own ATF is up (true in Missions 01 and 02.) Tap A and C-down rapidly when this happens. Your ATF gauge will show how much longer till the Angel's ATF can hold, but if you fail, you are open for a counterattack from the enemy.
In Mission 08, use your AT Field to block you from Unit 03's jumping attack by raising it after you throw or kick him away.
In Mission 12, Unit 02 can throw its AT Field at the Seele troops by pressing A after raising its AT Field.

MISSION 01: ANGEL ATTACK

Shinji Ikari, a boy of fourteen years of age is forced to pilot a machine known only as Evangelion Unit 01.
Action 01: Destroy the Third Angel!
If you want to beat him real quick, just keep grabbing him. If you're close enough, press C-down to put up your AT Field and tap button A and C-down to break through the Angel's ATF. If you wantto follow the events in the anime, play this on Easy mode first and watchthe pattern. If he grabs you and the animation is like in the Anime, then Eva 01 will go berserk. Breaking through the ATF is much more effectivewhen Eva 01 is Berserk.
Remember the pattern to go berserk is: Eva 01 loses Umbillical Cable, Angel breaks arm of Eva 01, Angel grabs Eva 01's head, destroys right eye, and throws him back.

Tip 1: When Berserk and far away from the Angel (like after grabbing him), if you hold the R button and right on the analog Unit 01 will start running. If the camera angle changes to Unit 01's face,wait till his eyes glow and press A+B. Unit 01 will tacle the Angel.

MISSION 02: A TRANSFER

Shinji's second bogey, he has to fight an Angel in the center of Tokyo-3.
Action 01: Destroy the Fourth Angel!
Same technique with the first angel, wait for him to attack then move in to grab. In hard mode, you have to break through the ATF first. If you want to follow the storyline, wait till the power goes down to one minute before finishing it off.

Tip 2: If Unit 01 is still attached to the Umbilical Cable, you can still use the same tackle technique as in Mission 01. This still works if you have the knife and if the Angel's ATF is still up or if throw him far enough when you grab him. Be careful though, sometimes when you tackle him, he can still retaliate damage you pretty good so its better to jump kick him instead.

MISSION 03: REI II

An impenetrable new enemy has emerged, and Shinjiis powered by the entire country of Japan to destroy the new Angel.
Action 01: Penetrate the enemy's defense!
Possibly the easiest mission in the whole game, even in Hard Mode. Use the Analog Stick to aim the Positron Cannon. Keep it steady on the center and shoot. It is possible to shoot down the Angel before it has the chance to shoot itself. If you miss the first time, Rei will sheild you from the second attack.

MISSION 04: A HUMAN WORK

A new mecha was made to replace Nerv's expensive fighting machine. When it went out of control, it was up to Shinji and Misato to stop it.
Action 01: Stop Jet Alone!
Tap A+C-down to make Unit 01 run and catch JA before it reaches the maximum safety limit of the city.
Action 02: Keep Jet Alone steady while Misato disarms the nuclear device.
Press whatever direction it shows on the screen on the analog while tapping A+C-down. Stop when it reaches safety.

MISSION 05: BOTH OF YOU, DANCE LIKE YOU WANT TO WIN!

Shinji and Asuka faces a new enemy that can divide into two separate beings.
Action 00: Synchronize!
Choosing the left option will take you to training.You can train as many times as you want.
Action 01: You'd better not screw up Shinji!
This is the coolest mission in the entire game! It's almost like Bust-A-Move (the dancing game.) You have to press the C buttons in whatever order to be in sync.
When prompted, press C-button:
1: up, left, right
2: right, left, down
3: down, down, up
4: up, up, down
5: down, left, up
6: up, right, down
7: down, down, down
The secret last command: up, up, up
You don't have to input the last command, its much funnier that way!

MISSION 06: MAGMA DIVER

Nerv dicovers an "egg" of an Angel within an active volcano and Asuka's chosen to retrieve it.
Action 01: Capture the Sleeping Angel!
Move around until you find the Angel and press the Z button. Align it with your Eva until the gauge on the bottom of the screen is on "center." If it's not centered, it will hit you. When you can't find it in time, press B to dodge but you have to time it just as the red alert message goes up.

MISSION 07: SHE SAID, "Don't make others suffer for your personal hatred."

A new Angel is found over the Earth's atmosphere with the capacity to destroy Tokyo-3 and the Geofront on impact.
Actions 01 to 03: Misato's Revenge
Press A when you reach the green line, although you don't have to. Just press A on the final one.
Another tip: Jab on the A button when it reaches the first three lines so the last line will give you more space, but ifyou make a mistake, it will make the last line smaller.
Action 04: Catch the Falling Angel!
Tap A+C-down to keep the Angel from impact.

MISSION 08: AMBIVALENCE

The newly completed Eva Unit 03 was contaminated by an Angel and has to be destroyed!
Action 01: Defeat Eva Unit 03!
Same technique as in the first two missions.When you grab Unit 03 and throw him away, set up your ATF and hold C-down to keep it up so that he wont jump on you.
Tip: Tackling Unit 03 has its perils too. Ifyou don't raise your AT Field in time, he'll jump kick you. This will also happen if you are just in range for a jump kick.

MISSION 09: INTROJECTION

A powerful new Angel has invaded the Geofront and defeated both Eva Unit 02 and Unit 00 and Shinji must decide if he will ever pilot the Eva again.
Action 01: Shinji, Don't Run Away!
One of the more difficult missions since this doesn't give much error space, move the Analog Stick in whatever direction and either the A or B buttons when it tells you to. Be careful though, it only takes three mistakes to finish you off. It is possible to finish this stage with Unit 01 intact.

MISSION 10: DON'T BE

An Angel of Light appears above the Earth's atmosphere attacking Asuka's Mind. Well out of reach of any conventional weapon, Gendo commands Rei to use the Lance of Longinus to destroy the 15th Angel.
Action 01: Guide the Lance
Use the Analog Stick to aim the Lance straight into the center of the Angel.
Action 02: Penetrate it's Absolute Terror Field (ATF)
Tap A+C-down till you penetrate the AT Field.

MISSION 11: THE BEGINNING AND END OR "Knockin' on Heaven's Door"

Kaoru Nagisa, the Fifth Child is actually the last Angel. He commondeers Eva Unit 02 and is only moments away from starting Third Impact.
Action 01: Stop Third Impact!
This fight is mostly countering each others attacks by tapping A+C-down. Normal attacks don't take out as much life as grappling or overpowering Unit 02. The controls are:
A: Horizontal slash
B: Guard or dodge
A + Up: Overhead stab
A+B: Grapple
Here's a tip: If you feel tired from tapping A+C-down, press start to pause, then unpause it and continue tapping A+C-down.

MISSION 12: AIR

Seele is attacking Nerv and Asuka, still catatonic, is put in Eva 02 and ejected into the lake. All of a sudden she awakens and her sync ratio is up again and pilots Eva 02 once again!
Action 01: Destroy all Seele Ground and Air troops.

Nothing much to do here, just waste time until the 3:30 time marker. Hold or tap down the analog stick to step or kick the tanks at your feet.
Tip: If there is a hovering VTOL in front and back of Unit 02, grab one and she'll knock it into the other. Also, If you press C-down to raise her AT field, press A to throw it.

MISSION 12.5

After seeing Eva 02 in action, Seele sends the Eva Series Unit 05 to fight Asuka by herself.
Action 1: Destroy all nine Eva Series Unit 05s.

You have three and a half minutes of power left to beat the Eva Series. Grabbing them is the fastest way to beat all nine Evas. You can still use the weapon, but it will take you longer to beat all of them because you have to get the right animation.
Tip: The Tackle technique still works here, but only on the first one she faces. Since Unit 02's eyes don't glow (it exposes its "real eyes"), wait for an audio cue to press A. If done correctly,she'll leapfrog over the first one, stabbing him in the head with her prog knife.

MISSION 13: MAGOKORO O KIMINI (My Purest Heart For You)

With Unit 02's internal battery exhausted, the Eva Series regenerate themselves and take to the air, destroying Eva Unit02. Back at Terminal Dogma, Shinji pilots Unit 01 and grows "wings of light."
Action 1: Destroy all nine Eva Unit 05s.
It only takes three hits to finish you off, so back off till you see them attack then move in for the kill.

Now that you finished all thirteen missions are you sure you want to know how Evangelion really ends?
