Only attempt this when you have infinite ammo wig, and bandana and stealth and the other 2 wigs orange and blue

Go through tanker with stealth until olga comes along. 2 bullet can kill you always aim for the head okay, when your going into the holds and million guads come in it gets a bit tricky don't let them throw granades

In plant it is smooth sailing until fortune. She shots 2 rail gun blasts at the same time. Two should kill you. Hide inside your box and move left to right. Even sometimes the rail gun blasts glitch up and go through you it happened to me 40 times. Fatman is suprisingly easy in E-Extreme. The bombs are annoying but hes weak. NOW the harrier jet will take you a good 2 hour practise run until you can beat him. One rocket can kill you and 2 vulcan cannon bullets can kill you. When he says I will shred you to pieces thats when he uses the vulcan cannon. Hide in the box and behind the big steel pylon in the bottom floor. Now when it goes side on view and he shots rockets at you he shots 50 of them (i have counted) this is basically impossible and the only thing that can help you in a glitch. Vamp takes a while to one slash can kill you and 2 throwing knifes can kill you. Use the stinger missile for good hits. Vamp 2 when hes killing emma is easy 12 bullets should kill him. Now when your naked you have no stealth so be careful and follow a route with stupid guards. When you have learnt the skills of the blade don't use it use the M4 and wear body armor don't worry about ammo snake has infinite. When you in the circle area it is impossible to die seriously it's to easy use the HF blade for this. Now for the 25 metal gear rays this is the one which should take you a week of planning and loss of eyesight to finish. The knee rockets kill you instantly, the bullets from there hands kill you in 2 and the rockets on there back and the mouth laser kills you in one it oh and also te stomping kills you in one hit. When your getting choked before the solidus battle use a turbo controller and hold the triangle button it's impossible to press triangle 40 times a second. Now solidus is easy use non leathal blade becuase kicking is requied for this battle to distract him. Also use the guard button with the blade and you will be fine

You have now completed E-Extreme... You get absoloutly nothing except glory

Bogus Report:

On the Tanker mission, when you are in Hold 2, look at the projection screen on the right when it has the video projecting on it and take a photo with the Camera. When you do this the game directors face (Hideo Kojima) will appear on the screen.

Note: This will not work if you use the Digital Camera.

Solidus (Extreme)

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

I Just Completed MGS2 On Extreme, And Beat Solidus Without Losing Any Health

All You Have To Do To Do This Is Simple

Kill Him Using Lethal("Red" Sharp Side Of The Blade) Methods As Each Attack Is Worth More Damage Than Non-Lethal("Blue" Back Side Of The Blade) Methods

At First, Solidus Won't Fire His Electro-Powered Missiles (He Will Only Do This When He Has Lost About 1/6th Of His Health) And When He Does, Flip-Attack Straight To Him (You Don't Need To Hit Him) And His Missiles Will Be Useless (And He Will Stop At 2 If You Get There Fast Enough) You Can Evade His Attacks By Using The Flip Attack (Running, X) And It's Also Useful When You're On Fire. It Can Also Be Used To Knock Solidus Off His Feet.

The Best Combos Are Horizontal Slice (Right Analogue Stick Right) Horizontal Slice (Right Analogue Stick Left) Lunge (Press Right Analogue Stick In)

When You Have Got Him Down To Half-Life He Will Eject His "Extra Arms" And Begin To Attack You With High-Speed Charges And Faster Swipes With His 2 Swords. When He Charges At You, Face Where He's Coming From And Flip-Attack Him, This Will Knock Him Down And He Will Be Unable To Attack You. If You Get Set On Fire Flip To The Edge And Jump Off (But Press Triangle To Climb Back Up Straight Away) This Delays Your Health And You Don't Lose As Much!

Remember That Nearly All Of His Attacks Can Be Blocked With L1 (His Sword Strikes,His Outstretched "Tenticle Arms" And His Kicks) The Ones That Can't Be Blocked Are: The Low Swipes (Where He Tries To Trip You Up) The High-Speed Charge (After He Loses Half His Health) And When He Jumps Off The Building At The Side Of The Battle-Ground.

Hope It Helped :)

Bar Trick

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

Do this in deck 2 port, after shooting the semtex control boxes, run up the corridor until you see a guard, hide in the opening to the right until the guard gets close, then press L2 to peek around the corner, there is a metal bar on the wall next to you that will fall and make noise, causing the guard to investigate [dont worry, he wont see you if you keep your back against the wall]. During this time, another guard will walk down the hall, startling the other guard and causing them to look at each other [if you are trying to get dog tags you can pull off a double freeze [ONLY WITH THE M9]because the usp light will draw attention. From there, obtain their tags and tranquilize/kill them and your on your way.

Otacon moments

Bogus Report:

When you are Snake, you have a camera, take pictures of all the posters on those lockers that you see, like girls, or that picture where it shows a guy with no T-shirt on. At the end when you have to send pictures of the Metal Gear, send those other pictures instead! You will get some weird emotions from Otacon.

Find Ames without interruption

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

When you get to the part where your mission is to find Ames, go to the B2 floor of the shell 1 core. After grabbing the Directional Microphone, go to the right of that room where there are 4 lockers. If you look in First Person View, you will see a Book on top of it. Punch at the locker it is on top of. After Raiden performs his spinning kick, 5 Books will fall to the floor. Grab them all, and head to B1. Watch the Guard's path. Find an open spot that he goes to, that also has no hostages nearby (such as in between the tables, or by the counter), and put one book down. He will stop and look at it, giving you a few minutes that you can use to find Ames. After a bit, the book disappears, and you can just put another one down for him. This also helps, because he won’t hear it if you ask the wrong hostage and they make noise.

Codec funny moments

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

After defeating Olga, walk up to her and call Otacon to get a message that she looks like an angel.

After defeating Olga, walk up, and in first person view, shoot her in the head with the M9. Otacon will call saying he cannot believe you.

When on the Plant mission, after getting the Socom, go to the roof of strut A. Use your M9 to put the birds to sleep when they land, then shoot them with the Socom. After killing enough birds, you will get a call asking if you are done being mean to the birds.

Look at the bugs in the Plant mission and call the Colonel (140.85) to get an explanation of why they are there.

Keep calling people on the Codec to get more story elements. Keep calling until they give you control tips, or repeat themselves a few times. This works at a number of times in the game -- try it after every major plot point.

When you are in the B1 level of the Shell 1 Core (the room where the hostages are being kept), try to do a flip to knock out at least three of the hostages. After a while you will receive a call from your CO and Rose saying what a mean person you are for harming those poor defenseless hostages.

Immediately after you first meet Pliskin, stay in the room where he is sleeping on the stairs and call him on the Codec (141.80). He will be asleep and Raiden will watch him. Call a few more times to hear him dreaming about Meryl and Liquid Snake

How to be SNAKE in the Plant

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

First you have to beat the game in any of the difficulties. Then go to new game and select extreme as the difficulty. When you are in the plant chapter you have to look for four Easter Island statues. They look like brown stones that resemble a flat face. You then have to shoot them in the head with the socom. After you shoot all four you playas snake for the rest of the game.

The statues are located in the computer room of Shell 1, one is in the vents where you shoot the nikita to destroy the control panel (you have to look for it, it is hidden in one of the other paths. You can destroy the grills on the vents with 3/4 sitgers). There is one in the flooded area of shell 2(when you get in the water it should be to the hallway right in front of you and it will be in a box like the ones for ammo. You have to get out of the water when you get it and go to the items menu and select it. Raiden will set it on the ground and then you shoot it.) The last one is on top of the lockers where you find Emma. Once you shoot it you should become snake.

Fun with enemy soldiers

Bogus Report:

Right ok to do this hold a soldier up from behind, then shoot their radio, then shoot their right or left leg and lastly shoot their right arm. Now knock them out and when they wake up they won't be able to run, fire their AKS-74U or AN94 and they won't be able to call for backup so you can do what you want with them.

Hold up with style

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

Go behind a guard and hold him up with your gun (not a tranquiliser or a one shot kill gun e.g. Nikita, stinger, RGB6 ), then while behind him shoot his radio, then shoot his LEFT leg, then shoot his RIGHT arm. Then take your gun off and make sure he sees you.

If you do this successfully he will have an exclamation mark above his head, he will then try to contact back-up but you broke his radio, he will put his radio back and attempt to shoot you but if you shot him in the RIGHT arm he will not be able to, then he will limp to another area to find a guard... Now do whatever you wish haha it's amazing try it...

Stealth isn't all that good

Bogus Report:

If you shoot a fire thingy or flour and you walk through it or if snake says ahhh that means that he is going to snease , so even if you have stealth on and your close enough to a soldier he will hear it and come looking for you , so keep your distance from the fire thingy and flour when shooting to see if there is red beams , and he could snease when ever.

Unlimited rations on tanker level

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

When you are playing on the tanker level ,especially on the extreme level, finding rations could be a difficult task. So if you need rations go to Deck A, crew's lounge and on the left side (the side that has a locked door) come down the stairs and you are going to see a sleeping guard.

There is 2 ways of aquiring the unlimited rations from the guard. One is to kill him or sleep him and then lift him up and drop him until he gives you all the rations you need.Keep in mind after killing him he will reappear. The other way is to freeze him and then make him drop all the rations by "shaking budy". Any way you are gona have to either sleep him or kill him if you don't want to be discovered or hunted.

Any questions write them on the questions section please.

Can only be used in conjunction with AR MAX. Activate infinite C4 and max ammo for SOCOM (on plant level) and make R2 switch between items. Activate stealth as well. Now the fun part! Use the C4 to eliminate anyone. DO NOT USE ANY OTHER WEAPONS APART FROM THE STINGER, NIKITA, AND AKS-74u they are for the game. Use the SoCOM to kill bosses and raid partys if you must.
