Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Cheats For PlayStation 2

1. Skip The End boss battle.

   After caves and after the river with the guards on the hovercrafts, enter the next area and a cutscene will begin. As soon as the cutscene ends pull out your SVD sniper rifle and aim it at The End in his wheelchair. Before he gets taken away, shoot the guard in the head, then shoot The End in the head a few times. If done corectly The End will say something and explode. Later in the game when you get to the jungle where the fight was supposed to be, you wont have to fight him and the jungle will be filled with guards from the Ocelot unit.

2. Metal Gear Acid Password

   When entering "Graniny Gorki Lab, 1F" (An area in which you must wear the scientist disguise), interrogate the first guard you see in the lobby. The 3rd time you interrogate him, he'll reveal a password for Metal Gear Acid: "J E H U T Y"

3. Extra Cut Scenes

   When Snake is captured in the prison cell, do not eat the food the guard throws you. Instead, throw the food back out of the cell to the card. Continue to do this 2 more times for a total of 3 times and this will trigger a hidden cut scene.

4. Extra Waterfall Scene with Eva

   After you escape from the cell, don't use Cure to take out the transmitter in your back. If the transmitter is in you when you meet up with Eva behind the waterfall, there will be an extra very funny scene where she takes it out of you.

5. Kojima Game's models

   In the office of Granin, there are models of things from other games Hideo Kojima Made. There is a model of Metal Gear Rex from Metal Gear Solid 1, A model of Metal Gear Ray from metal gear solid 2, and a model of Jehuty from Zone of the enders 1 and/or 2.

6. Ocelot Time Paradox

   After the cut scene where you first meet Ocelot, knife (or shoot if you have the Patriot) him to death. Once you kill him the game over screen will pop-up and say "OCELOT IS DEAD." Cambell will then yell at Snake for creating a time paradox.

7. Eat The End's parrot

   In the cutscene that begins the battle against The End, his parrot flies away. Search the area using the Thermal Goggles and you will eventualy find a bird sitting in a tree or on a stump behind you. This is also a sign that The End is nearby. You can either kill the bird, which will trigger The End cursing your name and swearing revenge, or capture it. Either way the parrot still appears in the cutscene where The End dies. If you captured the bird, contact Para-Medic to have a conversation about the bird. It offers very little stamina but tastes good. If you killed or captured the bird, it also appears as a ghost during the battle against The Sorrow.

8. The 3 Sons Snakes

   During the final battle with The Boss, equip the Thermal Goggles and search for 3 snakes in the field. These snakes are Snake Liquid, Snake Solid, and Snake Solidus. Anyone who has played 'Sons of Liberty' will notice that they are the names of the three 'Sons of Big Boss'. Each snake has a great taste and recovers a great amount of stamina.

9. Taming The Bees

   After getting the hornet stripe camo (defeating The Pain via stamina kill) you have the ability to "tame" bees while wearing the hornet stripe uniform. Heres how you do it (while wearing hornet stripe camo): Shoot down a beehive while underneath it (or close enough to it so the bees fall NEAR you). The bees will then be swarming around you! Now go attack some enemys (or go near them) so they can feel the pain.

10. Call off alert

    When you are in alert mode, grab a guard and interrogate him. He might give a radio frequency you can call to call off the alert. After the alert is over, the frequency changes.

    Contributed by: Brett777 

11. Zooming/Camera-panning During Cinemas

    At any time during a cut scene you can zoom in on the action by pressing the Triangle button. The harder you push it, the closer it zooms in. Also, while zoomed in you can pan the camera around using the left analog stick.

12. Secret R1 Cutscenes

    At three points during the ending, you can hold R1 to look around in first person. It is not indicated that you can use R1 but it's there. There are some small hidden things that can only be seen this way.

    Contributed by: Video_Gamer_Z 

13. EZ Gun

    You must capture all types of animals and plants in the game, you dont have to eat them and they can be rotten, and once you have captured one you can discard it from your backpack because it has been recorded as it having been caputred, there are 48 in total to be captured.

14. Title Screen Change

    After beating the game once, Snake will have an eyepatch on during the CQC fights he has with the Russian guard at the title screen.

    Contributed by: KurtCobain1994 

15. Extra information in Codec screen

    After so many calls, more "slideshow" images will open up for each person you talk to in your Codec. Each person has (at least) two additional personal information pages, usually accompanied by an interesting picture. To get this, call each person multiple times, after so many times, the images will open one at a time.

    Contributed by: HeeroAC195 

16. Revolver Ricochet

    As demonstrated by Major Ocelot early in the game, the bullets on the Colt Single Action Army revolver are capable of ricocheting. Simply equip the SAA and fire at a non-volatile structure such as a rock formation, metal crate or wall and watch the bullet deflect off the surface. If mastered properly, this can be used to shoot enemies hiding behind structures or even around corners!

17. What do you like?

    When beginning a new game you are prompted with three questions:
    "This is my first MGS game"
    "I like MGS1"
    "I like MGS2"
    Selecting this is my first MGS game has the regular opening. Selecting I like MGS1 makes your stamina drop slower. Selecting I like MGS2 gets you a special intro.

    Contributed by: BigBoss19 

18. Make Eva vomit

    Similar to making Snake spew, when you're escorting Eva to the lake, go into the cure option in the Survival Viewer to look at Eva and then use the analog sticks to spin her around several times. When you resume gameplay, Eva will vomit. Repeat this enough times and she will complain about stomach cramps and say other funny comments but this will also diminish her stamina quicker.

    Contributed by: PyroJames 

19. Secret R1 Cutscenes

    At the end of Virtious Mission, Hold R1 in the cutscene after Snake has healed himself. You will be able to look around when it is not indicated that you can and you can see The Sorrow's body.

    After you've climbed the mountain, hold R1 during the cutscene where Snake is spying on Volgin on the base. You can see The Boss ride off on her horse and EVA do the "handgesture".

    After being tortured, hold R1 as Ocelot leaves the room. The Boss does the "handgesture".

    After defeating the Shagohod, hold R1 and when EVA goes to hug Snake you can see The Sorrow behind her.

    After defeating The Boss, when her horse walks up, hold R1. You can see the ghosts of The Boss and The Sorrow.

    When the President goes to shake Snake's hand, hold R1 and look to the left. Ocelot is outside the window.

    When Snake is at the graveyard, hold R1. His eye tears up and you can't see much.

20. Quick Draw Revolver Duel

    During the battle with Major Ocelot, if you unequip your current weapon and stand out in the open for a few seconds, there were be a secret cutscene where Ocelot accepts Snake's challenge for a quick-draw duel. Ocelot will then stand and face off against Snake and the game will automatically switch to First Person View. Quickly equip your weapon again and when you're ready, aim your weapon and fire! (The object of a quick draw duel is to draw your weapon first and fire but not cheat by drawing too early.)

    Contributed by: PyroJames 

21. No Damage Through Torture

    Hold L2 during the entire torture sequence to not recieve any damage when Volgin punches you. It must remain held down until cutscene where he leaves otherwise any damage that would have been done is still dealt.

    Contributed by: MGRaiden 

22. Extra scene in Quick Draw

    At the end, when you do the quick draw with Ocelot. Pick the gun on the left, when you can shoot do not shoot at all. A hidden cutscene will happen with Ocelot talking about why you didn't shoot the gun.

    Contributed by: Menji 

23. Revolver Freestyle Twirling Duel

    Similar to the Quick Draw duel. When you meet Major Ocelot at Bolshaya Past Crevice, simply equip the Single Action Army revolver but instead of firing, use the R3 button (Right Analog Stick) to twirl your revolver repeatedly. In a secret scene, Ocelot will then confront you and also twirl his revolver to show off his freestyle twirling tricks. Depending on how you twirl your revolver, he will compliment or criticize you accordingly.

    Contributed by: PyroJames 

24. See naked Raiden again

    When obtaining the uniform from Raikov, the guy who looks and attacks like Raiden, shoot him in the crotch to kill him. During your battle with The Sorrow, a naked raiden will walf down the river hiding his privates, complete with bluring.

    Contributed by: PurgatoryCell 

25. Listening to Granin

    After your meeting with Granin, his door will become locked to you but you can still listen to him inside his office. After a few minutes he will start mumbling some curious things while half asleep.

    Contributed by: Jupasto 

26. Bats in Cave

    In the cave, bats attack you if you run. But if you use the active sonar and send out a 'ping', the bats will stop coming after you. That is because bats use sonar to see, they attack the strange noises snake is making and using the sonar tricks them into thinking you are just another bat.

    Contributed by: MujariMojo 

27. See an MGS2 Poster

    During the cut-scene when Snake stuffs Major Raikov into the locker, on the door of the locker, there is a poster with a picture of Raiden and the text 'Metal Gear Solid 2' on it

    Contributed by: typeyourname 

28. Another Metal Gear Acid Password

    In the Snake Eater Mission, go to compound area where the Hind sits. You'll know it's the right area because you'll see the Hind (Helicopter) grounded with noone piloting it. Interrogate the guard closest to the front door entrance of the largest building two or three times and he'll give you a password for Metal Gear Acid: V I P E R (Viper).

    Contributed by: Cannabisia 

29. Tight Space GLITCH.

    First equip the binoculars, then quick unequip.
    Enter a tight space, like a vent, and as SOON as the camera begins to move into 'Intrusion Mode' aka First Person immediatly equip the binoculars. You will continue to move forward WITH the binoculars equiped, but you will not be able to control Snake at all, except to unequip the binoculars, which will then return everything to normal.

30. Eva's Dream of Snake

    When you are in the woods with Eva, shoot her with the tranquilizer gun. Walk right up to her while she is asleep (you may have to crouch). She will begin saying interesting things in her sleep.

    Contributed by: King_Octavious 

31. Starving and poorly equipped enemies

    Throughout the game, you will find several storehouses of food (Where you'll find items like Instant Noodles and Calorie Mates) and ammunition (Often where you find new weapons). If you have some TNT in your inventory, plant a piece inside a storehouse, stand back, and detonate it. You'll know the trick worked if the room becomes charred and black. If you do this to a food storehouse, enemies in the nearby screens will complain about their hunger, helping you detect them easily. If you destroy an ammo warehouse, guards will have only one clip of AK ammo, then they will switch to a pistol, and eventually they will have to use a knife.

    Contributed by: Janors 

32. Motion Capture Actors

    During a cut scene, if you see the name of the character, the name in the parentheses is the voice actor. If you hit O, the name will change to the name of the character's motion capture actor.

    Contributed by: yeg0 

33. Modern Day Gaming Mags in 1964

    If you look around in the military bases throughout the game (Groznyj Grad, Graniny Gorki, etc.) you can find several modern day gaming magazines on tables, including EGM, GMR, and a few others. Shoot these magazines with a weapon and they will open to a page about Snake Eater. Shoot them again and they will flip to the back cover.

    Contributed by: Janors 

34. Poisoning Enemies

    Destroy a food storehouse and wait for the guards to start complaining about their hunger. Kill a poison animal (Such as a Poison Dart Frog) and equip it as a weapon. Throw it near a guard and he will eat it. In a few seconds he will collapse from the poison and die.

    Contributed by: bionuke118 

35. The End's Mercy

    While fighting The End, climb a tree onto a ledge that is easily accessible to the old man. Lay down and take out your sniper rifle, go into first person, and search the trees, not necessarily looking for The End. You will eventually hear his footsteps behind you, but do not turn around. You will get a short cut scene where The End finds you and shoots you one with his rifle. Instead of killing you he says that you don't deserve to die that easily. He then proceeds to pick Snake up and carry him to the nearby jail where he will eventually awaken.

36. Body full of crossbow bolts

    When fighting The Fear, before you beat him, let him hit you a few times with his crossbow. The bolts will stay in your body, and you are supposed to remove them through the Cure menu. If you beat him, you will automatically be healed fully, but the bolts will still be stuck in you for the rest of the game. If you go to your Cure menu, you will see them sticking out of you, but you can't remove them. They are visible with any camo you wear, but not visible during cutscenes.

37. An Old Favorite

    While traveling with EVA, grab her, and interrogate her. She'll tell you a code that involves directions but then she'll say that she doesn't remember the rest of it. The code EVA was talking about was the famous 30 lives cheat code from Contra on the NES.

    Contributed by: Lady_Nintendo 

38. The End starts the battle with less Health/Stamina

    If you shoot The End with the SVD (sniper rifle) at the Ponizovje Docks, but DO NOT kill him (he'll wheel himself through the red door), he will start with less Health/Stamina when you fight him later in the game.

    Contributed by: Faust Orinitia 

39. Johnny Sasaki deja vu

    After being captured and waking up in the cell, throw back the food 3 times to see the scene where the soldier tells you his and his sons name (Johnny). Now wait a few minutes, Johnny will bend over, hold his stomach and will then run to the toilet. As a bonus, he will say some hilarious sentences like "Wow, that's a record!" or "Will that even flush?"

40. Volgin's lightning

    When fighting Col. Volgin throw a Russian glow cap and it will absorb his lightning attacks for a little bit.

41. Snake’s dream

    When Snake gets puts in the jail cell. Save the game and turn the system off. Turn it back on and go to your saved game file. Load it and you will see a mini-game were you are this Zombie hunter guy and you can go around and kill zombies.

    Contributed by: GunBladeMan 

42. Parrot to your advantage

    During your battle with The End, if you capture his parrot (use a tranquilizer pistol) and then set it free, the parrot will squawk and circle over The End’s head; revealing his sniper position and allowing you to shoot him. After you shoot him, The End will then relocate and you can recapture the parrot and repeat this method until The End is defeated. If you find it difficult to recapture the parrot, move to another Sokrovenno area and then return and the parrot should be perched at one of its usual spots. If you find it difficult to spot the parrot circling over The End, use your directional microphone and listen for The End scolding his [loud mouth] parrot.

    Contributed by: PyroJames 

43. Defeat The End easily

    When you enter the fighting area for the first time, save your game and quit. Go into the clock settings of your PS2 hardware and set the clock forward a couple of years. Load up the game and you will find that The End has died from old age!!

44. Fun with guards

    When dressing up as Major Raikov, you can get away with hitting enemies etc and they won't touch you. PLUS, you can also trigger the alert alarm by pressing triangle near one of the red alarm stations, this will send two or more guards to your area, where you can beat them unconscious and take any items they may be holding.

    Contributed by: Gincairn 

45. Hint : Anger Volgin

    When fighting Volgin the first time you can wear the Ivan’s(Raiden's) mask and he will think you are the major and hesitate from attacking you. You will have a chance to shoot him a few times without him attacking. He will realize who you are after a while and become angry and attack more frequently.

    Contributed by: jake484 

46. Easily deplete The Fear's stamina

    While fighting The Fear, his main tactic is to jump from tree to tree in order to get the best shot possible on you. However, this depletes his stamina rather quickly, and like Snake, he needs to eat in order to keep himself going strong. As The Fear's stamina gauge decreases, he'll stop trying to attack you and begin using his crossbow to hunt for food instead. If he manages to catch enough of the local food sources, he will regenerate his stamina gauge; if you're a fan of scoring stamina kills on the bosses in order to get the secret uniforms in the game, The Fear's eating habits make it very difficult to deplete his stamina gauge in an honorable manner.

    Thankfully, there is a cheap way to bypass the entire process. As soon as the battle starts, take poisoned pieces of food you have on stock and throw it into the middle of the area, then proceed to go on with the battle as you would normally. When The Fear's stamina gets low, he will cease to hunt for food and will instead go right for the food you threw out for him! Not only does this prevent The Fear's stamina from increasing, but it will actually decrease his stamina as well. Even better is that he'll stand there puking his guts up, which gives you all sorts of time to blast him with shots from your tranquilizer gun.

    It should be noted that the best place to harvest poisoned food is in the very area in which you fight The Fear himself; you have to go through it en route to the science lab before fighting The Fear on the way back. The area is full of poison frogs and poison mushrooms, so make sure to stock up in advance. The more poisoned food you throw out at the beginning of the fight, the easier a time you'll have.

47. Make yourself fall asleep.

    You can make yourself fall asleep by equiping the hankerchief, and wiping it in the air about 3 times. After the 3rd time "Z's" will appear above your head and you will collaspe!

    Contributed by: No_1_LP_Fan 

48. Distract Voligin

    Before you fight Volgin be sure to capture a living tree frog. When you are fighting him equip the tree frog as a weapon and throw it somewhere where volgin will see it. After he sees it he should say something then jump back he will then be vulnerable for a few seconds(until he kills the frog) allowing you time to get a few cheap shots in.

49. Raikov's Bowel Troubles

    After destroying the food storehouse for Groznyj Grad, go to the bathroom stall that Raikov retreats to and drop some rotten food. Wait for Raikov to enter the stall and he will eat the food. The door will lock and Raikov will begin to experience some extreme bowel troubles! Knock on the door for some humorous dialogue.

50. Yet another metal gear acid password:

    This guy is located in the back of groznyj grad main wing (The place with the shagohod). If you interrogate him he should say, "Metal Gear Acid password, K A R E N".

    Contributed by: raijin_fujin 

51. EVA doesn't lose stamina.

    At the part where you must carry EVA through the jungle, you can tranquilize her with the EZ gun, and she won't lose any stamina...therefore, saving you food for when you really need it.

    Contributed by: latin_boi 

52. Dazing a Guard

    Whenever the '!' or '?' icon appears above an enemy's head, and you shoot it, (this is tricky) the the guard appear to be intoxicated and have some white bubbles floating from his head, giving you a few seconds to either run away, or to attack the dazed guard.

    Contributed by: sinncross 

53. Dazed and Confused

    When dealing with an enemy, shagohod mechanic, or scientist, make a noise and hide. Make sure you'll be able to see over the enemy's head. When a question mark comes over their head, shoot it. This will confuse the enemy for a short period of time by showing sparks fly out of their head and them stumbling around.

    Contributed by: Jimps043 

54. Open Locked Doors in Grozynj Grad

    You can open all of the electronic doors that only open for Raikov by throwing a live captured animal in front of the doors to open them. When the animal crawls in front of the door, it will open allowing you to obtain the items before you get the Raikov uniform.

    Contributed by: STG_Deathbot 

55. Another Acid Password

    Its the guard you see on the second floor, when you first enter Groznyj Grad Weapons Lab: East Wing. Interrogate him to get the Acid... Password... X M E I G H T.

56. Easy way to get out of the cell

    When you get into the cell after being tortured go into the survival viewer, and press R1 to look at snake closer. Spin Snake around in there for about 20 seconds, go back into the game and run for a little bit and Snake will spew. The guard will come in the cell asking whats wrong...knock him out and leave the cell.

    Contributed by: Tster01 

57. Hidden poster in drone R1 scene

    During the intro scene for Operation Snake Eater, you have the opportunity to press R1 to view part of the scene through Snake's view (the interior of the cockpit). When you do so, if you look all the way up (past all the instruments), you'll be able to see a poster of Yumi Kikuchi, a Japanese voice actress who had parts in Comic Party, Mahoromatic, Kakyuusei, and other shows.

58. Get past The Sorrow easily

    When you have to face The Sorrow at the river, instead of following him, you simply crouch down on to the floor, and keep your head down and drown yourself. Then the usual cutscene will appear showing you escaping the battle.

    Contributed by: Merray 

59. Get out of cell easy

    After Volgin leaves the room after torturing you, Snake and Eva will be alone when the R1 button is prompted you can see some one behind with a board and a Codec number writen on it when your in the Cell call it and It will say "The door is open now".

    Contributed by: Xenoblade 

60. Game Developers

    In the fight with The Sorrow, go to your backpack and take out your camera and take pictures of all The Bosses, including Th Sorrow's Dead body, when you look at it, you will see the faces of the Game Developers.

    Contributed by: DemonKiller007 

61. Ocelot helps you

    When fighting Volgin, first phase, throw some man-made food (Calorie Mate, Rations, Instant Noodles, etc) to Ocelot, and Ocelot will give Life Recovery Medicine or SAA rounds in return!

    Contributed by: Altre_U 

62. Distracting Ocelot

    When you fight Ocelot at Bolshaya Past, try shooting down the beehives from the trees above him. He'll briefly fend the bees off and leave himself wide open to attack. You can shoot off his beret as well.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

63. Shooting Guard Radios

    If you aim carefully, you can shoot the guards' radios. Doing so will cause them to malfunction and prevent the guards from calling an alert. However, it also prevents them from calling off an alert.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

64. Blowing Up Flamethrower Soldiers

    When you're fighting the flamethrower-wielding soldiers, try sneaking behind them and shooting their fuel tanks. They'll be set on fire and dance around in panic before blowing up.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

65. Cutting The Bridge

    When you're crossing the bridge at Dolinovodno, try cutting the support ropes with your knife. This will make the bridge increasingly unsteady, and can be used to easily get rid of pursuing guards.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

66. Messing With Sokolov

    During the Virtuous Mission, don't go to Sokolov directly. Instead, stay outside and stand near the room where he's hiding. You can elicit unique responses if you knock on the wall, shoot out the windows, or throw in live animals. You can even throw in a grenade, but that will cause a Game Over. If you try meeting Sokolov with the Mask equipped, it'll trigger a special radio call from the Major, who'll tell Snake to take it off. The reason is that Sokolov "won't like it."

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

67. Live Animal Distractions

    You can distract guards by throwing live animals at them. If you throw a snake or any other dangerous animal, they'll briefly engage in a fight. It's possible to even kill guards this way via poison.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

68. Cannibalism Via Vulture

    When you're going through the Krasnogorje Mountainside area, kill a guard and let a vulture feed on his body. Then kill and eat the vulture. Later on during The Sorrow battle, you'll encounter the ghost of the soldier, who will yell at you specifically for eating him.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

69. Torching The Fear

    During the fight with The Fear, use the Fake Death Pill. The Fear will come over to investigate, then turn his back to you. When he's not looking, revive yourself and stay in either the crouching or crawling stance. Get right behind him and light your torch, and he'll catch on fire and quickly take damage. Due to a programming bug, however, he won't react to being attacked. This method will not kill him completely, but it will leave him with only a sliver of health.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

70. Drowning Guards

    If you're near a body of water and want to quickly dispose of unconscious guards, you can throw them in the water. Instead of waking up, they'll simply drown after a few seconds. This trick also works with pools of quicksand.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

71. Electrocuting Guards

    Whenever you're in an area near an electric fence, try grabbing an enemy and shoving them into the fence. Doing so will immediately kill them.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

72. Seeing In The Cave

    When you first fall into the cave, you won't be able to see anything due to the lack of light. This is usually remedied by equipping the cigar or finding the torch. However, the lighting will gradually improve on its own if you wait long enough. This simulates Snake's vision naturally adjusting to the darkness.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

73. Destroy The Hind Early

    If you have some spare TNT, you can blow up the Hind helicopter at the Bolshaya Past base. Doing so will change the enemies you face later at Krasnogorje Mountainside; the helicopter will be replaced by flying platform soldiers.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

74. Alternate Intros For The Fury

    There are two alternate versions of The Fury's introduction. Before you drop down into the area where you fight The Fury, equip and light the torch. The cutscene will depict Snake dramatically tossing the torch away and pulling out his knife. You can trigger a different version by equipping the NVGs beforehand instead. If you have both the NVGs and the torch equipped at the same time, only the NVG version will play.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

75. Knifing The Fury's Suit

    Normally, the The Fury's flameproof suit will tear open once it's taken enough shots. This makes him more vulnerable to things like Stun Grenades, tranquilizers, and fire. However, you can speed this process up by sneaking up on The Fury at the start of the fight and attacking him with the knife. One knife combo will tear his suit, and he'll be vulnerable for the entire battle.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

76. Put Out The Fury's Fires

    During the fight with The Fury, take a closer look at the ceiling. Each hall is lined with large red pipes. If you shoot the pipes, they'll start leaking water and put out any fires blocking your way.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

77. Groznyj Grad Delivery

    When you reach the exterior of Groznyj Grad, look for a delivery truck on the western side of the base, under the arch near the tanks. Alternatively, there's another delivery truck in the northeast section, near the food storehouse. Climb in and equip a cardboard box. Doing so will trigger a cutscene in which a guard reads your box label and delivers you into one of the areas inside Groznyj Grad. The place to which you're delivered depends on which box you use. Box A leads to the East Wing of the Weapons Lab. Box B leads to the Shagohod Hangar. Box C leads to an armory in the eastern part of the fortress. This delivery method saves you the time and effort of trying to infiltrate the fortress in the usual way.

78. Using chaffs to avoiding backup and how to use the tranquilizer

    Key things to keep in mind when playing this game, especially on hard or any difficulty past easy:
    
    Using Chaff Grenades, these really come in handy, when you need to keep from backup from being called on you. If you are playing this after getting the Infinite Face Paint, use it as many times as you may need to, I just discovered this, if it wears out while Caution mode is in effect, they may and have attempt to call again after the first time fails when the chaff first goes into effect, and if the chaff grenade disperses and they call again, if you throw the chaff grenade, they'll figure out something is wrong and send backup to check it out. So maybe after awhile, throw another one.
    
    Technique on tranquilizing them from a distance, when they get in view, start shooting even you can't get an accurate head shot, they'll stop giving you a chance to shoot them in the head or constantly til they fall down.
    
    Before firing, make sure you have the suppressor on, if you don't, use the chaffs.
    
    Where to find the chaffs, you can get them at the beginning of Operation: Snake Eater by shaking one of the soldiers, if you forget, the only other place I found them after that was in the mountains, you can shake the first soldier you see for them or you can get them at the top right where an enemy is posted, he doesn't have one on him, but they are next to him.

79. Roll the barrels

    I just discovered you can roll the barrels that are laying down, just use the action button as if you were trying to jump on it

80. Take out half Volgin's life

    If you do it carefully, I just did once a little while ago, but if you get him under the pipes in the beginning of the battle and he does that electrical charge, shoot the pipe furthest back with the Patriot if you have it but any assault rifle will probably do, if enough water comes out and hits him while he's doing the charge it will take out half his energy

81. Torch Moss Camo

    If you have the Torch and the Moss Camo and you need to restore your stamina, you can use them to get it back up

    Contributed by: dlms1313 

82. Use the Spirit camo on the End, the Fury and the Boss

    If you use the Spirit camo on the End, the Fury and the Boss, they will not hear your footsteps if you come up from behind them while running or walking
    
    However, when you use it on the Boss, make sure she is not peaking out from behind the tree or she will see you, you have to use it when she is completely hidden

    Contributed by: dlms1313 

83. Lure the enemy to you via peek

    By looking around the corner from a wall or tree, you can get the enemy's attention without being caught, they'll come over to you and you can then use CQC on them, best if you have the Spirit camo and can go around behind them

84. Get rid of the alert mode when in new area

    If you enter a new area on alert, use the fake death pill and hit continue, this will not use a fake death pill, it will still be available to use, you will still have the same number and your alert status will be gone

    Contributed by: dlms1313 

85. Volgin's Assessments

    Just before the torture sequence starts, Volgin will take the opportunity to check out Snake's body and give his opinion. His lines will actually change depending on the amount (a few, moderate, or several) of serious injuries Snake has gotten up to that point in the game.

86. Alternate Virtuous Mission Dialogue

    After Snake talks to Sokolov for the first time, he'll report the mission status to Major Zero. The Major will ask him about the sentries, and Snake's lines will change based on your performance. If you killed them, Snake will say that he had to, but no one will know of the Americans' involvement. If you got an Alert, Snake will say that he managed to get past them. If you got to Sokolov undetected, Snake will say that no one spotted him.

87. Weaken The Shagohod Before Battle

    Once you make it inside the Shagohod hangar, don't set all of the C3 yet. Instead, take the time to kill the maintenance crew. The more crew members you kill, the less HP the Shagohod will have when it activates.

88. 2nd Ocelot Time Paradox

    While killing Ocelot in the Virtuous Mission is the game's most famous easter egg, you'll get another chance near the end of Operation Snake Eater. During the boss fight with Volgin, Ocelot will pace around the top of the arena. If you shoot and kill him, it'll trigger another Time Paradox, complete with a voice cameo from Colonel Campbell.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

89. Watering Down Volgin

    During the boss fight with Volgin, take a look at the overhead walkway that spans the center of the room. The bottom of it is lined with with red pipes. Just in like The Fury battle, the pipes will leak water if you shoot them. If you do this while Volgin is nearby, the falling water will disrupt his electrical attacks.

90. A Fine Piece Of Literature

    Once you've gotten a Magazine (the book item, not the empty ammo case), be sure to keep one in your inventory before Snake's first encounter with Volgin at Groznyj Grad. Once you've escaped the jail cell, call EVA to ask about Snake's equipment. If you had a Magazine beforehand, it'll trigger a humorous conversation in which she sarcastically calls it a "fine piece of literature" and jokes about distracting enemies.

    Contributed by: discoinferno84 

91. EVA's New Game Plus Dialogue

    Once you've beaten game once, play through again until you reach Bolshaya Past South, and call EVA. There will be a couple of new radio conversations. One has her talking about how she used to have a dog, and how she trained it. The other has her reflecting on how nice the Boss is, and mentioning how she carried EVA's bags once. In both conversations, EVA will offhandedly mention that she dreams about her dog or The Boss sometimes. This is a callback to one of the late-game easter eggs, in which you can tranq EVA and listen to her talk in her sleep. While still funny, these conversations change the context of her sleep talking.

92. TNT On Guards

    If you've got some spare TNT and are confident in your sneaking skills, carefully try to get up close behind a guard and set the TNT. If done correctly, the TNT will attach to the guard's back without him noticing. This basically turns the guard into a walking explosive that you can remotely detonate as long as you stay in the same area.

Walkthroughs & FAQs

Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence Cheats For PlayStation 2

1. Defeat The End easily

   When you enter the fighting area for the first time, save your game and quit. Go into the clock settings of your PS2 hardware and set the clock forward a couple of years. Load up the game and you will find that The End has died from old age!!

   Contributed by: stonalisa 

2. Easily deplete The Fear's stamina

   While fighting The Fear, his main tactic is to jump from tree to tree in order to get the best shot possible on you. However, this depletes his stamina rather quickly, and like Snake, he needs to eat in order to keep himself going strong. As The Fear's stamina gauge decreases, he'll stop trying to attack you and begin using his crossbow to hunt for food instead. If he manages to catch enough of the local food sources, he will regenerate his stamina gauge; if you're a fan of scoring stamina kills on the bosses in order to get the secret uniforms in the game, The Fear's eating habits make it very difficult to deplete his stamina gauge in an honorable manner.

   Thankfully, there is a cheap way to bypass the entire process. As soon as the battle starts, take poisoned pieces of food you have on stock and throw it into the middle of the area, then proceed to go on with the battle as you would normally. When The Fear's stamina gets low, he will cease to hunt for food and will instead go right for the food you threw out for him! Not only does this prevent The Fear's stamina from increasing, but it will actually decrease his stamina as well. Even better is that he'll stand there puking his guts up, which gives you all sorts of time to blast him with shots from your tranquilizer gun.

   It should be noted that the best place to harvest poisoned food is in the very area in which you fight The Fear himself; you have to go through it en route to the science lab before fighting The Fear on the way back. The area is full of poison frogs and poison mushrooms, so make sure to stock up in advance. The more poisoned food you throw out at the beginning of the fight, the easier a time you'll have.

3. Starving and poorly equipped enemies

   Throughout the game, you will find several storehouses of food (Where you'll find items like Instant Noodles and Calorie Mates) and ammunition (Often where you find new weapons). If you have some TNT in your inventory, plant a piece inside a storehouse, stand back, and detonate it. You'll know the trick worked if the room becomes charred and black. If you do this to a food storehouse, enemies in the nearby screens will complain about their hunger, helping you detect them easily. If you destroy an ammo warehouse, guards will have only one clip of AK ammo, then they will switch to a pistol, and eventually they will have to use a knife.

4. Dazing a Guard

   Whenever the '!' or '?' icon appears above an enemy's head, and you shoot it, (this is tricky) the the guard appear to be intoxicated and have some white bubbles floating from his head, giving you a few seconds to either run away, or to attack the dazed guard.

   Contributed by: sinncross 

5. Find Secret Codec Frequency to Call Off Alerts

   If you enter alert mode, capture any nearby guard and interrogate him. Sometimes, the guard will tell you a Codec frequency that can be contacted to call off the alert. These frequencies change after they are first used, but there will always be a new one available whenever you trigger alert mode.

   Contributed by: Evil_Dave 

6. Bats in Cave

   In the cave, bats attack you if you run. But if you use the active sonar and send out a 'ping', the bats will stop coming after you. That is because bats use sonar to see, they attack the strange noises snake is making and using the sonar tricks them into thinking you are just another bat.

   Contributed by: MujariMojo 

7. Skip The End boss battle.

   After caves and after the river with the guards on the hovercrafts, enter the next area and a cutscene will begin. As soon as the cutscene ends pull out your SVD sniper rifle and aim it at The End in his wheelchair. Before he gets taken away, shoot the guard in the head, then shoot The End in the head a few times. If done corectly The End will say something and explode. Later in the game when you get to the jungle where the fight was supposed to be, you wont have to fight him and the jungle will be filled with guards from the Ocelot unit.

8. No Damage Through Torture

   Hold L2 during the entire torture sequence to not recieve any damage when Volgin punches you. It must remain held down until cutscene where he leaves otherwise any damage that would have been done is still dealt.

13. Parrot to your advantage

    During your battle with The End, if you capture his parrot (use a tranquilizer pistol) and then set it free, the parrot will squawk and circle over The End’s head; revealing his sniper position and allowing you to shoot him. After you shoot him, The End will then relocate and you can recapture the parrot and repeat this method until The End is defeated. If you find it difficult to recapture the parrot, move to another Sokrovenno area and then return and the parrot should be perched at one of its usual spots. If you find it difficult to spot the parrot circling over The End, use your directional microphone and listen for The End scolding his [loud mouth] parrot.

14. Hint : Anger Volgin

    When fighting Volgin the first time you can wear the Ivan’s(Raiden's) mask and he will think you are the major and hesitate from attacking you. You will have a chance to shoot him a few times without him attacking. He will realize who you are after a while and become angry and attack more frequently.

    Contributed by: jake484 

15. Distract Voligin

    Before you fight Volgin be sure to capture a living tree frog. When you are fighting him equip the tree frog as a weapon and throw it somewhere where volgin will see it. After he sees it he should say something then jump back he will then be vulnerable for a few seconds(until he kills the frog) allowing you time to get a few cheap shots in.

18. See ghostly images of the developers during the fight with the Sorrow

    Using the camera, take pictures of the bosses you've killed as they walk towards you as ghosts. Sometimes you'll see the faces of the developers on the pictures you've taken.

19. Free Rations/Ammo in Original Metal Gear

    If you die and choose "continue" too many times (approx 5- 10), you'll be given max ammo (only for weapons you have obtained) and full rations. Your maximum capacity for weapons and rations increases as your rank increases, which you increase by finding hostages.

20. Capturing The Pain's Hornets

    When you fight The Pain, he'll occasionally perform an attack where a swarm of hornets will attach themselves onto Snake and cause damage. The normal way to get past this is to dive into the water. However, there is a much more beneficial strategy. Before the boss fight, equip as many empty Hornet's Nests as possible. After the hornets attach themselves and disperse, check your inventory again. All of those empty Hornet's Nests will be changed to Hives of Pain Hornets, which revive four bars of stamina.

21. Escape The Jail Cell Via Motion Sickness

    After you get locked in the jail cell, open the Cure menu and access the model viewer. Use the right stick to quickly spin Snake around for several seconds, then exit the menu. Snake will immediately vomit, causing the guard to come and open the door to check on you. This is the fastest way to escape the cell.

22. Stun Grenade Vision

    If you use a Stun Grenade, Snake will be temporarily blinded when it explodes. However, there is an easy fix away from it. When you throw a Stun Grenade, make sure to position Snake so he's facing away from the explosion. If done correctly, he won't be affected by it.
