But I found a bunch of great MGS4 walkthrough tips, tricks and cheats from Romeuy.com and Wikicheats . So, the credit goes to them. Now, time for me (or my roommate) to spend hours and hours trying all this out!

Prologue

Ground Zero

After the game’s initial cut scene ends and you have full control over Old Snake, crawl forward beneath the truck next to you for a Ration , then crawl beneath the next one to trigger more of the introductory cinematic. When it ends, grab the AK102 next to the fallen trooper, then go right (going left gives you a less ideal post-cut scene position) for more of the cinematic. When it ends, run back along the street, away from the Gekko next to Snake, then head through the gap in the wall as the road goes right, toward the militia soldier. When the Gekko outside passes and its back is toward the door, sneak across the street and into the next house. Head through the structure to the next highly-destroyed house, vaulting through the window with the Triangle button. When the Gekko to the the left walks away, make a U-turn to the right from the doorway the Gekko was outside of, sprinting for the exit in the northeast corner.

Act 1: Liquid Sun (Middle East)

Red Zone: NW Sector

Go around the corner to the main street and enter the doorway on the right. Watch the cut scene as you enter the adjacent room, then crawl through the gap in the wall to the alley. When the PMC troops leave, crawl toward the pavement and let your OctoCamo adapt to your surroundings before heading around the corner. Enter the next building on the right and grab the Ration , Compress , and all the 5.56 X 45mm ammo . Crawl beneath the debris in the southern corner of the house, stopping to watch a poor rebel get shot up, then make sure there’s no one around before you go right. Stay in the shadows on the west side of the map as you head south, letting your OctoCamo keep you hidden. Check the room off to the sides for items as you go. When you get close to the southern exit, wait for the two soldiers nearby to approach the Stryker tank, then crawl into the street and cross to the exit on the other side.

Red Zone

Check under the stairs here for a Compress and the Cardboard Box , then go south, avoiding the two soldiers nearby. You can head to your destination (which is northwest of the southeast corner of the map) via the north wall if you’d rather, but it’s much harder to do so, though you can grab an RPG-7 in the northeast corner early if you take this route. For the purposes of this walkthrough, though, we’ll be describing the southern route.
