Having trouble with unlocking the cheats of Perfect Dark? Here is some gameplay of the levels you need a specific time on in Special Agent.
-Start times in the video for each level-
0:00 Pelagic II
3:57 Attack Ship
8:09 Funny bug
Pelagic II: Unlimited Ammo-7:07
This one is bad to start out with. If you don't know where you are going, it is brutal and you'll end up 5 minutes off the time. If you know where you're going, you'll make it a full minute or more ahead of the required time. I suggest using the laptop gun: it is just way easier to mow through this level with it, and you probably won't get an alarm called on you this way. Make your way to objective 1, mowing your way through everyone. Go all the way to the back of the level to hit the moon lift objective, and get the shield so you can be fairly reckless. Head out to the left, kill some more, then head up both flights of stairs to get objective 2 done(when he says "I'll shut it down" there, you can run off, he's a good boy). Head back down all those stairs, then make a left, and another left to go down more stairs(I almost went the wrong way in the vid). Mow your way to Elvis, then rush to the end. Remember, you take a RIGHT after you head back up those final stairs from when you went down to get Elvis. Good god you can get lost, so easily, so know where you're going.
Attack Ship: Alien(co-op buddy)-5:17
To begin with, this is quite a large level, so keep on the move. You can get a 1 hit kill on the first skedar, but you have to be really fast. Shoot at the terminals from where you knifed him, and continue on to the next area. Help out the maians/Elvis here while waiting on the elevator, since he can take some unnecessary punishment if you're too lazy. Up here, pick a path(I chose right, shield =D), making sure to kill every skedar that spots you. Make sure Elvis gets in the room for objective 2, or he'll never do it. For the next objective, you can be lazy and leave all the skedar in the room and have it blow up with them in it. Make your way to the bridge, and hold off the 3 or 4 that come after Elvis comes.
Your main concer with attack ship is Elvis. He's fragile if you leave him alone with a skedar; I've had him die on several occasions, including after I had already entered the bridge(he was coming up, and died somewhere in the ship...no clue...). It happens, and nothing you can do but restart and hope it doesn't happen again. Last few seconds of this video are dedicated to that irritating moment -.-
Sidenote: Audio is out of sync at the start of attack ship. Dazzle skipped some frames there, but the beginning of that level isn't important anyways. It gets back to normal after the lift.
very good walkthrough for the cheats thx very much. havnt figured out any of the old N64 speedwalks where they fall thru stuff and walk along 1cm ledges but i fallowed yours and got everything over all great tutorial's of perfect ACE'ing those cheats into your menu :)

@swiftay18 yeah this was mostly for a "anyone can do it" sort of thing. I've since done speed runs(at one point was top 2 overall on special agent a few days ago). So imagine these videos like X2 for speed runs haha. Glad you liked it.

I should note that in your Pelagic II walkthrough, you can shave off about 2 minutes if you activate the Moon Pool Lift door in the same room you get the shield. Just go up to the door, activate your X-ray Goggles, and find the panel slightly to the right of the door. Once you find Elvis at the bottom of the ship, you can go straight to the now-unlocked door and skip the golden hallways entirely.

yep, that's a definate possibility; maybe I'll post a video showing that, but for the most part I didn't use alternative methods or tricks to do most of these cheat run unlocks
