Metal Gear Solid Hints
How do I get past the checkpoints?
1 of 3: At the first checkpoint, you have to shoot all the guards and the barrels to clear a path.
2 of 3: Holding triangle to go into first person view mode makes it much easier to aim and therefore shoot. Holding square to continually shoot helps also, as you have infinite ammunition.
3 of 3: At the second checkpoint you only need to shoot the guards.
