@@assassinonprozac Sounds like something would trigger if you were using autofire/turbo buttons, tapping the button rapidly enough would fool the game into thinking you were using autofire. That's at least when you play the torture segment in the "Twin Snakes" remake.
The chokehold was the only thing that I could not pass on European Extreme on PS2. I remember trying it hundreds of times with my younger brother and our friend, only to fail over and over again. Being the oldest, I was usually the most experienced player of our group and at some point I got mad and told others to forget it, as it is impossible to pass. Yet, somehow, I think after weeks of trying, my brother managed to pass it. I didn't even see it, just remember him running to me shouting "I passed it, I passed it!" We enjoyed his success enormously. Still remember it, 20 years later. What a time to be young that was. May the gods of gaming bless my brothers soul, as he passed over from this world some years ago.
Sorry to hear about your brother, that sucks man :( On a somewhat related note, the chokehold sequence on the HD collection was altered so that even on European Extreme it's only 20 (or 30?) seconds as opposed to the original's 60 second spam. Kids these days have it easy...
@@theta_clipsit suck to be young and all the things you love is old So i don't find alot of ppl talk about mgs2 or any old game i wish to be young on these days anyways i'm in the end of my ex walkthrogh near the chockhold section
the 7:55 part is really easy you can skip it. you have to reach the door at the end lean on it go in first person and do raidens full kick combo. Raidens Model get pushed through the door and you are in the next stage
Because of how its spelled, "RADN" instead of "Raiden" These ways of spelling usually make us laugh, since its an alternation we have never seen before. Edit: after re-reading this, i realize of how much of a tech nerd i sound like...
For the Fortune fight, if you forgot the box or for some reason can't pull it off, you can also use an empty gun to shoot from cover against a wall, you have invincibility frames when you first come out of cover and shoot
You can beat vamp quicker if you keep throwing 2 punches at him and avoiding his knife attack. He won’t jump back into the water and you can just finish him in one go
I played like a coward and ran counterclockwise around the boss arena dropping stun grenades while avoiding knives. It's how I survived against Hard and Extreme difficulty Vamp.
Vamp has an attack where his shadow will grab you and prevent you from moving until he attacks you , shoot out all the lights to prevent him from using this attack
George is now doing a run of all games in the chronological order, he'll probably play MGS2, but i think it'll take some time because MGS2 occurs between 2007-2009.
Because with a full clip, Raiden will eventually have to reload which has no i-frames leaving him vulnerable for 2 seconds (you could tactical reload but that leaves you vulnerable too). With an empty clip, you can "shoot" in and out of cover without having to worry about reloading

I used to be able to land those double-headshots on Fatman EVERY time as a kid. All these years later, as an adult, I'm ashamed that my reaction time and hand-eye coordination is simply not what it used to be. I can't seem to do it at all anymore lol. I only ever managed to beat the game on E-Extreme once, and it was probably the most challenging experience I've ever had in a video game. I tried doing it again, but got stuck at the Fortune encounter... Nice video!
that was a matter of the past. in the past, when online play wasn't that common, in order to increase the play time, the developers made their games difficult insanely difficult. finishing these games at those difficulty levels was often satisfying and there weren't so many games unlike today. so, people did not care much about these bad designs when the game was great overall.
Well original versions of MGS 2 and 3 tend to be bad and only serve to pad out play time. Sons of liberty (not substance) had the 1 minute torture just for giggles along with some other imbalanced items. MGS 3 snake eater(not Subsistence) had the worst fucking camera in existence and did not fit well with the jungle setting at all. Seriously go play the original snake eater and you’ll fucking gain a headache trying to beat it on extreme
+TIGER BATE I can explain it very well. Button mashing is stupid. BUT Kojima had a real reason for this. MGS is like a movie, right? You were supposed to FEEL the struggle raiden is having, while being chocked. After i mashed my button like a maniac on Extreme, i felt exhausted as fuck, same goes for Raiden. You are supposed to FEEL the exhaustion and struggle of the characters. And i think the mashing is the only way Kojima could achieve it. This is no quicktime event, i think its something more.
+German Weeb (he just changed his name, i had to edit this comment) Ok, I Can Understand That, I Surely Thought That During The MGS1 Torture Scene, But Still, 1 Whole Minute Of EXTREMELY DIfficult Button Mashing That Forces You To Use An Object To Press The Button Fast Enough Is Inhumane Game Design, Seriously, Not Everyone Can Power Drill The Button With Their Fingers Fast Enough, And If It Requires Too Much Effort, It Can Unfairly Make A Game Unbeatable.
If it was a work of art then you wouldn't need to pause every 5 seconds to see the quickly disappearing text at the bottom. His editing is only 1 level above videos from 2006 when people used to screen record themselves typing on Notepad.
I actually beat the PS2 European Extreme Solidus choking part a few times. No tricks. The key is to keep pressing rapidly enough, but not too rapidly because you will tire more quickly. With a good enough rhythm, you won't tire and you can hold onto your health. If you just start spamming the button like crazy as fast as you can, you can't keep it up for long and you're dead.
The best way that works every time for me, in both mgs1 and 2, is to rake your first finger across the button left and right. Every tap counts as 1 press, but by doing this, left and right count as 2 presses
Just use the ball of your thumb and jirate it. Peace Walkers shock torture was way worse for me because the fuckers messed with you psychologically that time and mapped the button to triangle when the entire series you've been conditioned that the torture button is circle.
Couple of notes: - you can beat vamp in one cycle of the AI exploit if u just do 2 punch combos and move away in time, the kick resets his AI -the opening trick on metal gear ray works better if u step up by 2 of the digital lines on the VR battlefield -for the choking segment use a Pen and very rapidly move back and forth over the triangle button to not lose any health if u do it right but fair ur not using physical tricks for anything so maybe not a good note -u can exploit solidus’s AI by hanging and using I-frames at the right time and doin the 2 punch combo without kicking (theres 2 dif timings for the two phases) to cheese the fight but then ur robbing urself of one of the best 1v1s in metal gear soo ur call
Its been a while but when you fight Metal Gear Rex in Metal Gear Solid immediately start running to the bottom right corner of the hanger and press up against the pillar, he will look for you but miss you, once his back is turned fire a rocket, he will be alerted but by the time he turns around he will have forgotten your location, rinse and repeat and you can beat him without loosing health. This can work for the second phase of the battle but is a little more tricky as your target is smaller.
When I was learning the mass produced Rays fight I gave up after 2 hours and had a dream that night about me doing that hellish sequence. The next day I finally did it. MGS2 on Extreme gave me PTSD, especially from the Harrier onwards. This video gave me the courage to go through that ordeal again.
Really helpful vid, helped a lot on some bosses for the dogtags trophy, may I add some additional tips: - for first tengus you can skip it with a glitch by doing cqc in 1st person while sticking against the exit (look this one up it’s all over the internet) - for Solidus you can dodge the missiles easily by going towards him when he starts firing, then as soon as the first missile is about to accelerate, just cartwheel once, you will be right in front of him and he’ll be vulnerable to attacks, also for the second part if you push him to the ground, then keep a long distance after, he will only rush to you once without fire, very easy to block and then parry, I find it even easier this way because he’s less likely to use his sword (like 90% of the time it’s his elbow smash)
Man on the ps2 I got 2 where solidise chokes you on European extreme... So damn close 2 the end. I had no idea u had 2 hold on for a bloody minute. Great video 👍👍👏👌
I hear it's amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Hara-kiri Rock. I need scissors! 61!
Just beat Solidus on extreme thanks to this! Thank you! It took about 2 hours but eventually got the 2nd half of the fight down and got the combo and timing down.
Also on the Ray fight you can intentionally make it do the water cutting maneuver and get a hit in while it's engaged. There's a few steps though: You have to be running around the Ray close enough to make it engage the lazer but not so close it steps on you. Watch it's chest/belly telegraph when the water Lazer is coming. As it reels back be running around the Ray in a circle, then, as it lungs forward to fire you somersault. Sometimes you can just keep running and dodge it but the somersault timing is more reliable on E-Extreme. Toggle the stinger and fire! Sometimes you may be directly below the ray head so firing may be tricky. Also, keep an ear out for beeping from the missiles coming from outer rim Ray's. This strat puts a lot of eggs in the dodging basket but I found it to be more consistent than trying to dodge the knee missiles.
Thank you so much for this. I could never beat this game on EU-E because Olga. Maybe now I can do it. Probaly one of the hardest MGS games on the highest difficulty.
Okay, I just HAD to give this a favorite and your channel a sub after watching this! MGS2 is one of my all time faves and seeing how you make e-extreme seem so simple in those segments is seriously impressive. I always love finding MGS2 vids like this one that continues to teach me new things about the game. Great work, "Jack"! ❤
I'm very happy to see someone giving the mechanical aspects of the MGS games some love still. Your guide is straightforward and very informative, good stuff! MGS2 is my favorite game of all time, so much so I've done a few casual speedruns of it, which I've uploaded. I can share some other good tactics: - On Olga, if she comes to the right side, and the goes back to start her "I grew up on the battlefield" voiceline, you can shoot right before she says it, and it will confuse her AI, she will stick her head out to look at you, and then take cover. As soon as she gets to cover again, shoot her in the head again. Repeat. She dies in about 5 shots. - You can shoot Fatman with the M9 on his foot, and for whatever reason he falls down instantly, allowing you to pop another 2 headshots quickly. Guess his feet are weakened from sustaining his sexy body and trenchcoat. - On Vamp, you can actually make that an infinite. Punch him but never complete your combo. Delay your third hit so you can keep punching him instead of the double kick. He will try to knife you, dodge and repeat. He will never go back to the water. - This one is a glitch, not an exploit, but on the Arsenal Tengu fight you can bypass the first section by flattening yourself to the door, going in first person and doing your melee combo. As soon as you see your kicks go out, let go of first person button, and you will clip through the door. Manage your stun grenades well and you can beat this section in 30 seconds. - If you stay a certain distance from Solidus after knocking him down, he will always do the missile attack afterwards, which you can cartwheel through and punish him.
Lol I still remember completing it on European Extreme on PS2 with other friends. One of them did all the stealth parts, while the other one did all the boss fights (including the "torture", which was just INSANE on the original version), and they were stuck on the final boss fight with Solidus. So, I went to my friend's house, after beating myself beat the game on Extreme difficulty just hours before, just to FINISH THE FIGHT and I killed Solidus on the first try! It looked like if our football team won the world cup :D What a day!
Actually Vamp is even easier to beat in the water room. You hang into the water and jump up when he tries to slash you and then get a two hit combo like in your video, but instead of following up with a three hit combo that will knock him into the water, just stand next to him and he will go for a slow slash again so just run around him and do two, two hit combos and he’ll slash again so just avoid the slash and two hit combo him some more and repeat until you’ve beaten him
You can get more stinger shots in the harrier fight by locking on and shooting off to the side, so the missile starts at an angle and can chase the harrier down even if it’s behind a building
is it bad that i'm the type of stealth game player who reloads his save every time he gets caught outside of forced combat encounters? especially in the older MGS games?
Denzel Rozier You wouldn't be trying to give yourself a bogus score using some ingenious trick would you? That's just about as low as anyone could possibly stoop! I can't believe you sometimes...
Damn I remember this Solidus torture on ps2 on Extreme difficulty. It was so fuckning exhausting because you had to keep pressing it like ten times per second for more than half a minute.
I just finished this game on the PSVITA now, wish I had known those tricks, it was so goddamn hard but vamp and solidus, I battled them with the hanging method.
Indeed. It instead was made by someone who actually cares about Metal Gear like this guy, and not one that consistently hates on Kojima every now and then like he does.

- On Olga, if she comes to the right side, and the goes back to start her "I grew up on the battlefield" voiceline, you can shoot right before she says it, and it will confuse her AI, she will stick her head out to look at you, and then take cover. As soon as she gets to cover again, shoot her in the head again. Repeat. She dies in about 5 shots.
- You can shoot Fatman with the M9 on his foot, and for whatever reason he falls down instantly, allowing you to pop another 2 headshots quickly. Guess his feet are weakened from sustaining his sexy body and trenchcoat.
- On Vamp, you can actually make that an infinite. Punch him but never complete your combo. Delay your third hit so you can keep punching him instead of the double kick. He will try to knife you, dodge and repeat. He will never go back to the water.
- This one is a glitch, not an exploit, but on the Arsenal Tengu fight you can bypass the first section by flattening yourself to the door, going in first person and doing your melee combo. As soon as you see your kicks go out, let go of first person button, and you will clip through the door. Manage your stun grenades well and you can beat this section in 30 seconds.
- If you stay a certain distance from Solidus after knocking him down, he will always do the missile attack afterwards, which you can cartwheel through and punish him.
10/10 editing, thanks for making this!
Really nice! i like the editing, anyway i hope u do something similiar with other games, sofar i subscribe to you!
7:37 yo i lost my fucking mind laughing this scene. His grunt will never leave my brain.
these voice clips had me screaming. thanks man.
Lol I still remember completing it on European Extreme on PS2 with other friends.
One of them did all the stealth parts, while the other one did all the boss fights (including the "torture", which was just INSANE on the original version), and they were stuck on the final boss fight with Solidus.
So, I went to my friend's house, after beating myself beat the game on Extreme difficulty just hours before, just to FINISH THE FIGHT and I killed Solidus on the first try!
It looked like if our football team won the world cup :D What a day!
Lol you're quite the character! I enjoyed this more than I should've xD
I can believe that the PS2 version lasted almost a minute (century), my useless thumb is a testament to that
@Otacon464 did it with the middle joint of my thumb, which is now numb and useless. Never again
Otacon464 because yes
Great vid George! Very enlightening.
Thank You,Boss! I'm Recently Playing MGS2 and I made it to the beginning of the "Plant" Chapter
Watched your streams, you are awesome!
1:43 No just keep getting in and out of cover with a handgun for invincibility.
180 IQ quality guide. Thank you kindly, Gorge Sears!
This is more than a guide, it's fucking hilarious. Really well made.
These videos are both informative and hilarious.
Man, MGS2's graphics were very ahead of it's time. Classic days
Excellent. Age hasn't slowed you down one bit.
It...it actually might have sped you up a bit.
Thank you for another great vid.
This is the funniest and most comprehensive guide I've seen for MGS2, amazing job on the video!
9:07 hardest I've laughed in a long time
Actually Vamp is even easier to beat in the water room. You hang into the water and jump up when he tries to slash you and then get a two hit combo like in your video, but instead of following up with a three hit combo that will knock him into the water, just stand next to him and he will go for a slow slash again so just run around him and do two, two hit combos and he’ll slash again so just avoid the slash and two hit combo him some more and repeat until you’ve beaten him
Man this is bringing me back. Love this fucking game. The music is spectacular, too.
George, always keeping us waiting

"i'll let you go out in style!"
You can get more stinger shots in the harrier fight by locking on and shooting off to the side, so the missile starts at an angle and can chase the harrier down even if it’s behind a building
very good editing!! good work!!
Fatman got killed by bombs
OOOOH THE IRONY
is it bad that i'm the type of stealth game player who reloads his save every time he gets caught outside of forced combat encounters? especially in the older MGS games?
No.
Denzel Rozier You wouldn't be trying to give yourself a bogus score using some ingenious trick would you? That's just about as low as anyone could possibly stoop! I can't believe you sometimes...
yes
The edits alone make the video totally worth it.
he did listen when I said to make more mgs2 videos! thank you GS
To pass Solidus E.E torture on PS2, I had to use a Turbo controller... Got lucky Ocelot wasn't paying attention
yeah but how but ur giving solution for those 6 useless piece of shit overpowered ray on normal difficult.. cuz i been stuck for 3 month from now on
Damn I remember this Solidus torture on ps2 on Extreme difficulty. It was so fuckning exhausting because you had to keep pressing it like ten times per second for more than half a minute.
seva809 if you press button too fast console tends to halves your input and then every second press will be missed
Good to know. Thanks for the info.
seva809 no problem. Found it in a hard way so I don't want people snap their fingers doing this pointless work
@WilkTheMasterStalker : Snap fingers or even worse - break the controller.
seva809 I think I only broke one. Maybe 'twas Demon Souls and soul sucking Old King Allant that I was fighting with broken dodge button
Great vid, i played on extreme several years ago and plan to play again on e extreme or extreme.
Holy hell, your editing on this was remarkable. I wish more RUclips videos were like this
Ok how about the hardest boss of them all?
Konami.
Terryl I fuckn wish.
Ah, "The End" strategy
I love how arisen just yells bullseye when he shoots vamp
I just finished this game on the PSVITA now, wish I had known those tricks, it was so goddamn hard but vamp and solidus, I battled them with the hanging method.
Wish I had this walkthrough when I did my playthrough like a decade ago XD Those 25 rays still haunt me hahaha Good work George!
"Fatman contacted US" "NOW! BULLSEYE." I laughed so hard the first time I heard that.
"After 10 minutes of Snake enjoying all the killing"
had me rolling 😂😂
9:16 YEEE AHH.. this is what nature planned !!
In the Solidus fight you can somersault towards him when he starts the missle cluster and the missiles will miss you as you land see free hits on him.
7:30-7:42 is the funniest shit ever lmao
Despite of what most of you might believe, this guide was actually NOT created by DSP
Indeed. It instead was made by someone who actually cares about Metal Gear like this guy, and not one that consistently hates on Kojima every now and then like he does.
The editing here is fantastic.
Cool vids man just found your channel. HARD SUB
