Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty Cheats and Speed Run (PS2)

SHARE:

Adjust text size:


Solid Snake is back in the ultimate stealth action experience delivered by Konami's Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. Sneak behind guards, break their necks, grab on ledges or use the sniper to dispatch your enemies quickly. Sam Fisher is nothing when compared to Snake and there are some memorable moments that make MGS what it really is: using the cigarette smoke to find the laser beams or Snake crawling behind a dozen soldiers that talk about him. It's important to remain in the shadows at all costs and getting spotted is not something you'd want to happen. Getting dog tags is one of Snake's hobbies that will get you lots of bonuses. Weird? Check out the cheats if you don't believe me:

Dog tags:
Collect this amount of dog tags on the Tanker/Plant and you will get different items: Tanker

48 dogtags : Bandana-Infinite ammo

75 dogtags : Stealth Plant

72 dogtags : Wig A-Infinite ammo

121 dogtags: Stealth

156 dogtags: Wig B-Infinite grip gauge

202 dogtags: Wig C- Infinite O2 gauge

Codec Trick:
Press R1 or R2, while someone is talking to you through the codec, you’ll hear what your player is thinking.

In the plant:
In the parcel room (strut E), climb onto the counter top by the conveyor belt, and use the boxes to get around the plant. Different boxes take you to different places.

Box 1: Strut C
Box 2: Strut B
Box 3: Strut A
Box 4: Strut F
Box 5: Strut E

Increase grip strength:
Press L2 + R2 100 times when hanging on a ledge to do pull-ups.

Getting the dog tag
To get the dog tag, you need to sneak behind the soldier and point your gun at him. With the L1 pressed, go in front of him and search his chest, he will drop a dog tag… If he had one (you
will notice the dog tag when you see a shining spot on his chest) he will drop more items if you search him again.

More dog tags
When Olga and the president are dead, shake their bodies to get their dog tags.

Getting past the mine area
If you don't have the mine detector and you enter a mined area, the best way to get past is to crouch all the way through and collect the Claymores.

RAYs Battle
In order to destroy the RAY, you will need a few Chaffs and one Stinger. Get close to it and don't fire until its mouth is open to attack you with a rail gun. This will do more damage to it.

Thermal goggles
When you defeat Olga, go up on the roof and climb the tower. You will find thermal goggles, use them to detect mines and laser beams.

Control the camera during cut scenes
When you're in a cutscene, press R1 to zoom in and use the left analog stick to rotate.

Codec moving
Using the left & right analog sticks will rotate character faces. If you depress them, the camera will zoom. R1 lets you hear their thoughts.

Big head mode
At the start menu type up, up, down, circle, triangle, left, right. You should hear a tone and all characters even guards will have big heads

Finish Metal Gear Solid 2 in your lunch break, like this guy did. MGS 2 done in 11 minutes:
