That Hoverbike at 1:09 will only be there if you lowered it in the previous mission(Air Force One).
If you want it you can always just replay the previous mission on easier difficulty.
Cheat unlocked: "Perfect Darkness"
(by completing this mission on any difficulty)
Cheat description: "The map is pitch black and Joanna is provided with Night Vision. The storyline and AI are not affected."

Keep in mind that you can always change weapons/items using the pause menu.
It's extremely useful in a lot of situations and can help you a lot.
I rarely use it in these new recordings so it doesn't interrupt with the gameplay too often.
That's why I want to remind you here for anyone who uses these as guides.
There is a control option called "Legacy"(similiar to N64 version default controls) in the "Advanced Control" section of the settings menu.
Using it allows you to strafe run noticeably faster.
I don't like that control style. So I don't use it at all on these new recordings. Everything is completely doable without it.
But if you do use it and also do what I do, you should be able to save a lot of seconds compared to my times.
Reason why I restart at the beginning of some missions is because a lot of things are active in the levels during cutscenes(enemies walk, elevators move etc.).
So letting cutscenes play to a certain point can have an advantage to you.
Reason why there's no "New Cheat Available!" text at the end of every level is because I have re-recorded that level. Usually because I wasn't happy with my own play.
