go up to jason and unplug your controller it may look like he is going to kill you but you will not die. you now have unlimited live
Hint: Avoid wolves while in the woods:

The wolves will appear only after all the zombies are gone. Just leave one zombie alive when you are in the woods. Allow it to follow you until you reach the path you want to take. Just repeat this trick when more zombies appear. Note: If Jason attacks in the woods, all the zombies will disappear, making it quite likely that a wolf will appear afterwards.
Hint: Getting the torch:
bobbygreen , 4/10/2003 2:53:25 PM

It is possible to get the torch on the first day of wandering around Camp Crystal Lake. Using Mark, wander around the camp for awhile, collecting potions and lighting all the fireplaces. In one of the cabins in the camp, you should find a letter saying "You will find a torch in one of the cabins by the lake". Once you find that letter, go into the trail that circles the lake. Look in one of the two big cabins, you will find the torch there.
Hint: Weapon recommendations:
bobbygreen , 4/10/2003 2:54:22 PM

The torch and the pitchfork are the best weapons in the game. The pitchfork is useful during the third night. You can easily kill three zombies with one shot and can rapidly shoot these weapons. However, after visiting the cabin in the woods, you will discover a note that says similar to "Fire is the best way to defeat Jason." It is true -- the torch works better against Jason. However, it is slow.
How do you get the pitchfork?

(posted: 1/22/2007 8:05:30 PM) Answer Courtesy of F13 fan: Walk around camp with Mark, Crissy, or Laura and walk everywhere. Find Jason outside (make sure you've collected at least 2 vitamins) and follow him after each defeat. If he passes by a big cabin go inside and look for him. Beat him and leave. Walk to the right a little bit and Jason should attack again. Jason also hangs around in the woods a lot. To dodge indoor punches by Jason press down and then left or right to duck.

does friday the 13th ever end? I beat Jason but after I killed him it said he was still alive and stronger than ever.
