== Metal Gear Solid / Twin Snakes ==
* Psycho Mantis can read ''the player's'' mind by reading memory card data, providing a detailed analysis of the player's proficiency at the game (how good they are at stealth and combat, and how frequently they've saved their game), and suggesting that the player enjoys certain games like, say, ''[[Castlevania]]'', [[Awesome Series|for instance,]] or ''[[
* If you don't take the SOCOM pistol from the truck in the heliport, the cutscene when Meryl lets you out of the cell will be different. Snake will push aside the barrel of her gun instead of aiming back at her.
* If you attack Meryl when she's following you, she'll [[Armor-Piercing Slap|slap you and knock you down]] normally, although if you hide in a box afterwards, she can't hit you back. However, if you do this in an area with wolfdogs that are friendly to her, she'll instead whistle and cause one of them to pee on your box, and wearing that same box afterwards will cause the wolfdogs to ignore you due to the scent.
Line 23:
* There are two ways you can get a 'Mission Failed' which are highly unlikely in normal gameplay: falling down the lift shaft on Strut A and letting the bomb explode after the battle with Fatman. Both of these have their own specially-created images for the game over screen.
* The game takes into account the fact that certain bosses can be defeated in different ways. The cutscene after the Olga fight varies depending on where she was when you shot her, and Fatman is visibly still alive and breathing after the fight if you take him out with a non-lethal weapon.
* At one point in the game, you have to find a hostage by calling out to them, [[Holler Button|with a button command that stops working after the hostage is found]]. If you then backtrack to the room with a parrot in it, and call out to the parrot enough times (ten or eleven. With no indication that what you're doing is recognised by the game), it learns to say the phrase and adds it into its usual repertoire.
** The parrot can also learn to say "Enemy sighted, requesting backup" if you get caught too much in that area.
* When the player sees a cardboard box in the Strut connection area early in the game, he or she might decide to shoot it and cause the occupant to retreat quickly. This is later reflected in a codec call about the box, with Pliskin irritably telling Raiden that thanks to him, a couple of his boxes were destroyed before stopping himself, should the player decide to do that.
Line 38:
** You can also save during The End's boss battle, and leave the console off for a week. This results in him dying of old age.
* Calling your [[Mission Control]] when you're imprisoned, saving and then loading the game causes Snake to have a nightmare, which manifests itself as a demo for a scrapped action game called Guy Savage.
* During the short period of time you have Eva in your party, so to speak, you can check her medical history. Turns out she has breast implants, she has eaten a Tsuchinoko, [[Squick|and]] [
** This can be seen as [[Fridge Horror]], if you consider that the proctitis is usually in the midst of electrical burns and other wounds caused by the sadistic pervert [[Depraved Bisexual]] [[Big Bad]]. Yep.
** Better yet, if you tranquilize her (which significantly slows down her stamina drain), she'll start talking in her sleep about Snake, The Boss and her dog, and makes several sexually suggestive double entendres.
** If you harass Eva enough times while you're paired up with her, she kicks you in the crotch hard enough to cause an instakill and a Game Over.
Line 52:
== MGS4 ==
* You can unlock, with some difficulty, the Solar Gun from ''[[
* Similar to ''[[Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater]]'', spinning Snake around on the model viewer/OctoCamo selection screen will result in Snake vomiting.
* Have Snake die in various ways, continue, and then call Rosemary. Snake (or, in the event that Snake was killed via an explosion, Rosemary) will begin the call stating that he got the feeling that he was killed before in the specific manner in which the player died.
* Certain locations in which you can participate in battles between Liquid's PMC forces and local militia change according to how the battle is resolved. You'd usually only spot this by backtracking.
Line 59:
== Peace Walker ==
* There's a couple of joke [[Dating Sim]] missions where you can date either Paz or [[Gay Option|Kaz]]. Normally, the game prohibits you from taking weapons into the dates, but if you hack the game to allow you to take them, you can kill them. When Kaz [[Everything Fades|fades]], his glasses remain and clatter onto the sand.
* While the Codec lines in ''Peace Walker'' are usually generic or generic for the stage, thus making them hardly worth bothering with for the majority of players, making Big Boss stand on a specific riverbank in a specific stage after recruitment of Huey, the man who will become Otacon's father, leads him to remark that [[Futureshadowing|he always gets a bad feeling when he looks out at the water]]. (''[[Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty]]'' revealed that Otacon's father committed suicide by drowning himself.)
* If the player shoots the soldiers in the butt, it will instantly knock them out.
* The game has two situations prepared depending on how well the CQC quick action cutscene turned out for the player: If the player successfully managed to do the CQC, the player will be able to use the ID card that Snake stole from Strangelove earlier to escape from the cell, although the call with Miller after Snake escapes will be somewhat short. If the player fails, the player can utilize a jigsaw strapped onto him, and after escaping, Miller's codec call will have him reference the Jigsaw.
Line 67:
* Try shooting the '''!''' above a guard's head if you're discovered. It stuns them momentarily.
