** "Main Gate":
*** There's an ''entire'' alternate path starting from the sewers next to the main entrance and ending right where you need to open the main gate, allowing you to bypass ''tons'' of enemies and traps. Of course, doing so prevents you from discovering a secret area. And said area also contains a pair of Gunners.
*** Below the initial building, there's a corridor with a Rebreather.
*** In the main building you have a few enemies and ammo boxes to the left, and a secret Jacket Armor at the right, located after the Alert button was pressed and the Flyers spawned from it.
** "Detention Center":
*** There's an alternate path to the first key that allows you to bypass a lot of enemies.
*** There's an elevator in the courtyard that allows you to take down the Gladiator next to the yellow lasers more safely. And it leads you to a Chaingun with some packs and a Gunner.
*** After entering the building with the forcefield jails, there's a portion on the right that not only contains a secret and a few enemies, but also disables the lasers protecting the Quad Damage... and it opens a few {{Monster Closet}}s with a pair of Medics in the courtyard.
*** Before exiting to the Security Complex, there's a building in the middle that contains a GuideDangIt secret that holds a [[DiscOneNuke Power Shield]] and an Adrenaline pack.
*** After the Red Key door, there's a section of the building that leads to an early Grenade Launcher that you may miss otherwise. Picking it up opens [[NewWeaponTargetRange yet another]] MonsterCloset with a pair of Enforcers.
** "Security Complex":
*** Right after the lasers blocking the way to "Guard House" there's a secret with another Grenade Launcher.
*** Below the stairs in the multi-level room, there's a bunch of goodies such as a Bandolier and a pair of Quad Damage.
** "Torture Chambers":
*** On the outdoors of your first encounter with a Tank there's a secret Hyperblaster.
*** There's a secret on Cell Block B that leads to a secret Invulnerability. It comes in handy for another secret.
*** The sinking cell room, the last before your return to "Security Complex", contains a secret cache in the pool itself. You need an Invulnerability item in order to pick up these items.
** "Grid Control":
*** The beginning room contains a Grenade Launcher and some ammo in laser-guarded areas.
*** In the PSX version, there are two shootable walls with secrets in the corridors where you fight the Tanks that are absent in the PC version.
*** Also in the PSX version, on your way to the next unit you have a Rocket Launcher with some ammo that will come in handy later.
