Guard from Shadow Moses:
     After you gain access to the directional microphone in Shell Core
1,  B2,  proceed to find Ames like the cyborg said. Once you find Ames
(he  is  sitting  next  to the only table with boxes on it.) and begin
talking  to  him,  you  will  be  told  to listen in on a conversation
between  Shalashaka  (Revolver  Oceleot)  and  "Solid Snake." Once the
screen  changes  into the Directional Mike mode, turn to the right. If
you search around enough, you will point towards a bathroom and hear a
guard talking about his experience at Shadow Moses.

Picture trick:
     If  you  take  a  picture  of the bare chested man located on the
locker  in  the  engine room, when you get to the Metal Gear Ray room,
the Marines will have forgotten their pants and will be wearing boxers
only.

Getting the dog tag:
     To  get  the  dogtag you need to sneak behind the solider & point
your  gun  at him, with the L1 pressed go in front of him & search his
chest,  he  will  drop  the  dog tag if he had one(you will notice the
dogtag  when  you  see  shining spot in his chest) & he will drop more
itmes if you search him more.

Other dogtags:
     When  Olga & the president are dead, shake thier bodies to obtain
their dogtags.

Getting past the mine areas:
     If  you  dont  have  a mine detector & you enterd a mine area the
best way to get pass it is to crouch all the way & you can collect the
claymores as well!

Easy way to defeat VAMP:
     Sleep on the ground behind the pool fence & equip your m4 when he
get  too  close  to you, just before he shoots you shot him in the fps
mode & repeat that until you beat 'em up!

Easy way to find Ames:
     Use the book to draw the gaurd away then take your time searching.

RAYs battle:
     In  order  to  destroy the RAY you will need just some CHAFFs & a
stinger, get close to it & dont fire until it opens it mouth to attack
you with the rail gun. This will take more damege on it.

Thermal goggles:
     When  you  deafet  Olga  go up on the roof & climb the tower. You
will find a thermal goggles, use it to detect mines & laser beams.

Misc. hints:
     If you dont have a scope use the camera instead. It works perfectly.

     In  the tanker chapter look at any bikini girl poster in fps view
for about 10 sec then talk 2 otecon ...see what will happen

     The  socom  suppreser  is in the wharehouse strut. Go to the node
room  &  search  for the small vent shaft (you will see it on the map)
that will take you to the other room.you will find it there.

     Crouch on the ground to avoid the claymores & to get them at same time

     To beat vamp in the first encounter sleep on the ground & prepare
your M4 in the fps view, when he get close to attack you shoot. Repeat
it until you beat'em up.

     Knock  out the wall to get the president's attention then use the
nikita .

     You can destroy the lights in the corridors.

Control the camera during Cut-Scenes:
     Will  in  a  cut-scene, press R1 to zoom-in, use the right analog
stick to move the camera around.

Codec Moving:
     Usign left and right analog sticks will rotat character faces, if
you depress them will zoom. R1 lets you to their thoughts.

Stronger Grip:
     Do 100 pull-ups to raise the grip level.

Misc. Hints:
     If you beat the game (on any difficulty) once and have gotten the
digital   camera  you  can  then  start  a  game  from  that  one  and
automatically have the camera.

     If you beat the game (on any difficulty) and get all the dog tags
for  Snake he will get an infinite ammo bandana and if you do the same
for  Raiden you will get an infinite ammo wig. note: this doesn't have
to  be  done  in  the  tanker/plant mode it can be just tanker or just
plant.

     After beating the game once (on any difficulty) the "press start"
screen  will now be blue and have Raiden's face, and in the tanker the
marines  in  the  last  section and single marine in the first section
will not have pants but little heart boxers.

     And  just  for  fun,  try  sending  picture of Olga (while she is
unconscious)  and  some of the posters (you know which ones) to Otacon
and see how he responds.

Go a different way into the holds:
     As  soon  as the timer starts in the first hold, look in front of
you,  there  is  a  cable.  Flip  over on the rail in front of you. Go
across  to  the other side. Flip over. Flip over again where the cable
is'nt.  Pass on the left side until you can get up from the rail. Then
go  through  the door, which leads to Hold 2. You can go over the side
in  Hold  2  and  go across the rail on the left side. Get up from the
rail when you can and you will be in Hold 3.
