1. Intro
==========
Alright, this is my first FAQ. It's fairly simply, and I strongly doubt
this layout has EVER been used before. If anyone has trouble
comprehending this faq feel free to email me (skillfaktor@netscape.net)
and I'll do my best to correct it. This is here for you, so you are my
first priority! As of right now this is merely an early build of whats to
come. With that said, lets move on to the instructions, and get started!

=================
2. Instructions
=================
My FAQ will be pretty self explanatory, just pretend you are loading up
the game, and these are the options you have to choose from, each one
will branch into separate sections as if you are selecting it with your
controller. More than likely, I'll be editing segment numbers. Right now,
I primarily wanted to get this FAQ up and running as fast as possible to
help people get a better understanding of the menus found in Battle Gear 3.
Obviously, not everything has been translated yet. Next week, this FAQ
could look entirely different. Good luck!

================

You MUST have an ID, and Password upon entering Battle Gear Mode. To
obtain this, simply ask users on the BG3 board, or do a google search.
If you purchased the Japanese version of the game it should be located
on your instruction manual. Asian copies, as well as downloaded editions,
I wish you luck in finding the code. Unfortunately, I'm not exactly sure
as to whether or not I'm allowed to post the code in this guide, so until
someone informs me, you will not find it here. I apologize for the
inconvience. Until then, happy hunting!
