 +  * On Very Easy to Hard, going to the left bomb first is faster for non-lethal variants of the fight, but only if Fatman moves to the north at the start of the fight. Going left first can cause him to move south which is slower overall.

 +**Fatman can be defeated with 3 Socom headshots in two cycles:**
 +
 +  * Regular Setup:
 +    * Go to the right bomb first and defuse it.
 +    * Knock down Fatman using the Socom and fire quickly once at his head when he falls down. 
 +    * Wait a bit until stars appear over head, then fire another shot.
 +    * At this point, Fatman's path is random. Ideally he would move south but he can also move to the left or right. Chase him, knock him down with the Socom and then fire once at his head with the Socom.
 +    * Diffuse the final bomb.
