Easy shots in Snake Tales
In big shell evil, when you find the drugs, with Emma, loads of enimies will start to come in. Don't shoot them because when you kill them all more will come in. So, crawl under the shelves and shoot the enimies easily, be careful though because the can still shoot you. Once you have shot all the enimies in the area grab Emma and go through the open door.
Make Rose annoyed
At the beginning of raiden's chapter, when you are first looking for peter stillman, if you go into the women's bathroom and into one of the toilets, stay there for about 5 minutes not doing anything, if you have nothing equpied, call campbell on the codec, he will say something then rose will get angry, after this try calling rose and after a bit of speech you will see some funny choices. It's pointless but it's still funny!
Skipping codec in a fast way
If you get a message on the codec and it opens automaticly you can skip it very fast. Just push in the four buttons (triangle+ circle + X + square) and you will see how fast you can play again, instead of repeatly bashing on your buttons.
How to know Hideo Kojima's exact date of birth
At the beginning of the plant episode at the first node enter the name "Hideo Kojima" and the date of birth blood type and country will automaticly be set.
Beating Gurgolon
To beat Gurgolon use your stinger to hit one of his targets. Afterwards, pull out an AK74-U and shoot the little blue thing swarming around where you shot him. The target will get smaller making it more difficult to hit.Eventually you will destroy the target, repeat until all targets are destroyed. Also theres a funny bit to the level: put on the BDU (enemy outfit) and equip the AK47-U. Let him trap you with his soundwaves and let him fire his eyebeams.Before it hits you, an explanation point pops above his head, which changes into a heart. He picks Raiden up and walks off with him as love music plays. Unfortunately you fail the mission.
Tanker chapter: Secret passage
In the Holds 2 room, go all the way to the left to find a hatch. Open it, and you will climb down into a small area. Crouch and go through the vent on the ground. You will eventually see a gun clip fall through and a man will start talking. His shadow will be on the ground. Wait there until his shadow leaves, then move through the area. After you get past that, you will reach an opening and an intermission sequence will begin. After it ends, crawl through a vent on the right side of the small room. After you crawl through, you will find a ladder. Climb up the ladder, and it will lead you to a small perch. Look down at the bottom of Metal Gear RAY, and you will see Ocelot standing there. He will then go away. You can keep doing this and experiment with things to do with Ocelot.
