Metal Gear Solid Cheats
7:24 AM 1/18/00Get Camo Suit/Bandana
If you submit in the torture room, beat the game, and
save your progress, you automatically start a new game. When
that new game starts you get a stealth camouflage suit.
If you don't submit, and beat the game, and automatically start a new game, you get a bandana that gives you unlimited bullets when you have it open while using a weapon.
Also, in the Cell, before you climb up the ladder, down on the ground, there's a secret air vent with a ration, and underneath the DARPA Chief's (Decoy Octopus) bed is a ration. Also, when you get the stealth suit, after Meryl opens the cargo door in the tank hangar, if you have your STEALTH open, you can run right through the room without being detected by the infared sensors.

The Metal Gear Solid Wiz.
Beating Rex
So in order to beat Rex you will have to use Chaff grenades so that he
looses track of you for a while and will give you some time to kill
him. Tke out your stinger missles and aim for the round thing on his
left arm that looks like a shield and give him a few shots. After a
while that ninja comes and he finnishes off Rex's arm but Liquid Snake
squishes him into the wall and steps on him. This time your chaff
won't work any more. The cockpit will open and now run through his
legs (avoid the laser) and wait till he turnes around. Get your
stinger ready and keep on firing at the cockpit until you finnish rex
off.
(when you were at the Ocelot torture rack where he runs electricity
through you, did you submit or save Meryl?) well, hope my tip hellped.
another way to beat rex
run behind him and watch out for the laser then move with him and stay behind him when he stops moving throw a stun grenade beetween his legs then imediatly select the stinger lock onto the radar or the cockpit which ever your on and fire. i found this effective becausei had more stun grenades and it also makes him freeze in his tracks.

Beat Rex With Ease!!!
O.K. so, forget the stinger missiles and running between his legs... This is the best way to defeat Metal Gear Rex, and why not have a break while he is still trying to find you...
Before he wakes up right at the beginning of the battle run to the far right... hide behind one of the walls sticking out and... get inside one of your cardboard boxes! Then when the blue cone is out of your way, quickly press R1 to get rid of it and shoot a stinger into his arm, before it hits him, get back into your cardboard box and he won't be able to find you! This way, you won't get hit once!

A member of the wolf dogs
Just after tracking through the caves for the first time, and before you and
Meryl enter the under ground passage to comm tower A. Stand facing Meryl with the wolf dogs yapping nearby slap meryl roundly in the face Meryl whistles and the dogs attack you for such an action. However if you place a cardboard box over you immediately after slapping Meryl,the wolf dog puppy investigates the box. Cocking its leg against the side of it, a stream of wolf dog urine splashes you and the box. You now smell of the wolf dogs and the hounds now leave you alone on subsequent terms through the lair.

Different Costumes and More
If you want to wear the tuxedo, here's what you do. Beat the game two times on the same memory card block (play over your last game.) The third time you start up the game Snake will remove his thermal suit in the elevetor and be clothed in a tuxedo.
Beat the game with the tuxedo and the ninja that he has to fight changes his uniform into a red ninja suit!!!
Beat the game at any skill level and look in the Special menu for a compilation of all the cut scenes throughout the game.
Defeat Psycho Mantis
Before you attemt the fight with Psycho Mantis plug your controller into the controller #2 slot and press any button, the screen will turn black and have the word "HIDEO" in green in the corner. After a few seconds it will go away and you can use the 2nd player controller to fight against Mantis.
This way he won't be able to tell where your going to go because he can only read your left brain (left controller), he can't read your right brain (right cont.).

Defeating the Ninja
Use your chaff grenades to get the Ninja on the ropes. They will stun him and give you enough time to get in 3 good hits.
Crushing the Generator
To destroy up the generator, you need a Nikita. Simply fire it and then get in first-person mode to make it easier to aim the missile. First turn right, and go through the door straight ahead, then left and you'll be in the room with the generator. Now just run into it. The cameras may shoot it down, so you'll probably have to try this more than once.
Fast Travel
To move about through the complex faster, hide inside a cargo truck and use a C.Box. Remain perfectly still and a guard will drive the box to the area noted on the box. (There are three boxes, each to a different location.)
Meryl with No Pants!
Follow Meryl into the Women's bathroom and reach the last stall in under five seconds. Meryl will be caught with her pants down during an FMV sequence.
Look in the vent just before the DARPA chief (Decoy Octopus) to see Meryl doing sit-ups. Leave the vent and re-enter and she will be doing one-armed pushups. Repeat and she will be doing leg stretches on the wall. Repeat one more time and she will be doing the leg stretches while pantless.
Defeating Vulcan
Another way to defeat Vulcan for the second time is to use your Claymore Mines. Place a mine where ever he is attempting to approach you. This works all the time. Submitted by Ed Maramag

Seeing through Physco Mantis's eye's
When Physco Mantis Takes over Meryl in the Commander's room, and then Meryl begins to shoot at you that's the time to do it simply press the triangle button and voila.
P.S this code is pretty risky so I advise you to save just before you enter the Commander's room.

Fast way to beat Liquid
When you are battling Liquid on top of Rex, there is a trick to beating him fast and easy. Each time Snake punches Liquid twice, pause for a moment then puch Liquid again twice. Keep repeating this until Liquid's life is zero. By this time he should be cornered so kick him after the punches now. Remember that he takes a little time to recover from your punches when you hit him twice in a row. If you only use punches, he will never get a chance to hit you.

Secret Place from the Steam Room
When you get to the steam room there is a hallway to your left. follow it get down on your(Solid's) hands and knees and go under the wall. Keep going to the left until you pass the 2nd wall then there will be a room. DON'T go to close to the edge or else you will fall in to the steaming hot lava! There are two boxes of chaff gernades and one box of stinger missiles. And if you want to have little bit of fun, you stand there and you could shoot a stinger missile at a rat or an unexpecting guard, this will set off the alarm but don't worry no guards can hurt you in there(avoid shooting the big thing in the middle of room it will take some life off of you).

Get out of prison
There are three ways to get out of jail after the tortures :
1. After the second torture call Otacon and he will give you some ketchup and other stuff. Use the ketchup and the guard will come in thinking you are dead.
Then you can kill the guard.
2. Crawl under the bed and the guard will come in. Crawl under the bed when the guard doesn't see you, otherwise he'll laugh at you.
3. Just wait after the second torture and don't do anything. The ninja will come and rescue you.

Stupid Guard
To do this you will need stealth. While you are in the heliport get one of the guards to follow your footprints in the snow and then run around in circles until the guard catches up with you. Get out of the way and he will say "Huh" and start walking around and around and around in circles while looking at his feet!!!!!!!

Laser FA-MAS
For this to work you need a bandana and a FA-MAS.
When you have your FA-MAS selected the number of bullets has two sections, one yellow and one red. The number of bullets falls from the yellow section to the red section before Snake reloads.
Now, fire the FA-MAS until the bullets are in the red zone (less than 4 shots left) and then select your Bandana.
Begin shooting on auto-fire and before each shot a red laser will come out of the gun like on the Socom.
It does'nt do anything except it looks good!!

See all the lasers and mines
If you want to see all the lasers, (including the place where Meyrl opens the door to), and see the mines when you can't use your mine detector, just use your thermal goggles. So if you use your thermal goggles instead of wasting your health and not getting a full view of the lasers with cigarettes, get a big view and not waste your health with thermal goggles. If you can't use your mine detector, just use your thermal goggles. You won't be able to see the range of the mine, but if you just crawl on the mine you can pick it up.

Guard Shields!
When the game is in alert mode, instead of waiting for Snake to drop the body of a guard you are strangling, walk around with him and use him as kind of a human shield to take all the pain of the bullets, keep doing this until you run out of guards!

Way to get past the dogs
After you go through the wolf-dog cave and meet Meryl punch her and quickly get into one of the boxes.She will whistle and the dog will pee on the box.Now you can equip the box and go through the caves and the dogs will sit down with hearts over thier heads and not bother you.
Unlimited Ammo with the Bandana
If you hate it when you are fighting and you run out of ammo, here's something to help. First, when you get captured by ocelot, don't submit to his torture. That way, when you beat the game, Meryl will be on the back of the snowmobile holding up a bandana that says"limitless." when you start the game again in the same memory card block, you will have the bandana on the inventory side with your rations, ciggerates, goggles,etc. When you are going to use a gun or grenade of some sort, slap on the bandana. You will not run out ammo.

Thermal Goggles
When you first enter the tank hangar at the beginning of the game, if you take the upper level air-ducts, the catwalk on which you land on will take you past two rooms. The first room, near the camera, will be a level two card, there is nothing here but the mine sweeper, but you can get that later. If you keep going, there will be a second room on Snake's left, a level 4 room. Enter this room now, but watch out for the camera in there. In the back right hand corner, there will be a pair of thermal goggles. This is the only time this particular door will be open, after that you'll have to wait for a level 4 card. If you cralw in through the floor level air ducts, then you have to go up the stairs and around the catwalk to the room.

Easy way to get past the crane in the blast furnace
After you kill the gaurd when you first get in the blast furnace go to the walkway where he was. Equip the Stinger missles and point towards the wall where the crane is moving back and forth. There should be two rats walking back and forth. Lock on to the rat when the crane is near them and you will blow up the crane too. now all you have to do is get against the wall and go to the other side without having to worry about getting hit by the crane while you are walking.

Defeating Volcan
A very easy way to beat Volcan is to lay c-4 on the path you think he might walk on, then hid behing one of the walls (keep you eye on the c-4 you just laid). When Volcam walks on the c-4 push the o button. This makes his life go down a far bit. You might have to do this 5-6 time before he is finished. NOTE: Make sure Volcan doesn't walk down the path where you are hiding.
