Section 9 vs the HLF:

Events leading to the Aeropolis II incident.

Eighteen people were severely injured when 50 grams of C-6 were detonated at the Megatech Body Research & Development Division Headquarters. The HLF soon admitted responsibility with a message leaked onto an encrypted security net, making trace and identification virtually impossible. The security hack indicated member or members of the HLF had substantial hacking prowess.

Only 2 days before, Zebra 27 staged a heist on a military arms depot and was caught on camera. This revealed his presence and his connection to the HLF to Section 9 as the weapons stolen from the depot were used against Section 9’s A-4 loadoat personnel in the Bay Area, where the HLF were organizing since the HQ bombing. Soon after, the Energy Ministry was discovered trying to access Section 6’s files on Zerba. An official at the Energy Ministry, Sawamura, had leaked the Arms depot location and inventory to Zebra. Sawamura was also connected to Megatech’s Body R&D.

Survivors from the Bay Area shootout, including Zebra, fled to an unused refugee relief sector, abandoned by the city because of the build up of industrial pollutants (not even the Refugees wanted to be there).

It was in the old city where the HLF’s current secret base was located—at the monstrosity known as Aeropolis II. Section 9 moved into the Geofront while Sawamura was arrested.

In the end, the whole incident stemmed originally from a defect in Megatech’s main reactor. Sawamura planned to collect bribes from Megatech’s development section in exchange for covering up the problem. The blast of the Aeropolis II reactor, which was prevented by Section 9, was meant to resemble a terrorist act….then Zebra stepped into the picture.

His scheme was to take over the reactor and extort money from Sawamura. He went too far when he contacted Section 9 and claimed responsibility. Zerba 27 was eventually caught on the top floor of Aeropolis II and eliminated.

I haven't seen the original Ghost in the Shell game for the PlayStation in any stores, you could try finding it on eBay or the preowned game selection of Electronics Boutique, GameStop

It's been a long time I played that game. I barely remember the main story. You control a Fuchikoma which was hard at first but fun when you get used to it. The most interesting part was that it involved the cut-scene animations drawn like the manga.

I got a used PS1 game off of Amazon.com AND also got the hint guide. I'm not very good with shooters, so both the PS1 and PS2 are hard for me. My eyes and hands don't work good well together. I need a flame thrower or something.

Yeah, I found the game too hard as well actually. So I did use cheats to skip levels and unlock movies. It's not really my sort of game, although I really did like the way it looked (that and making my fuchikoma walk sideways/upside-down on walls and ceilings).
