-Conclusions: +=====Full-Game Video Guides=====
-  * On Tanker, Japanase has less codec scripts than English.+
  
-====PAL 50Hz====+The following are a list of video guides of the run in its entirety.
  
-Since PAL on Sons of Liberty and Substance (also HD if the resolution of the console is turned down to 576p) runs on 50Hz, some things behave a bit differently than on NTSC. Playing on 60Hz on PAL is possible on the HD Edition versions of the game.+  * [[https://youtu.be/A-KSp2iVnJ0 | dlimes13 Any% Very Easy Guide]] 
 +  * [[https://youtu.be/A-KSp2iVnJ0 | Someone Any% Very Easy Guide]]
  
-  * Guards and Cyphers turn slower. +----
-  * Guards fall asleep faster from body shots with tranqulizer rounds from the M9 or PSG1-T. +
-  * Fatman can be looped easily on Extreme and European Extreme. +
-  * Solidus’ Torture on European Extreme is 65s long and your HP value is set to European Extreme values. +
-  * At the near end for Guard Rush in the Tanker Chapter, in order to finish the fight with USP headshots and retain a 0 kills play through, you must tranq the first guard that spawns then follow up with two successive headshots. This is due to the lower framerate. For a more detailed example check the Bosses page. +

-=====Sons of Liberty===== +----

-  * Elevator Clip (and Swim Skip) is possible. +
-  * Coolant Skips for Tengu 1 and 2 is consistent. +
-  * Grenades are timed from when their pins are removed. +
  
-====NTSC-U====+----
  
-===General=== +  * [[https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ | PlatonicGuy Any% (European) Extreme Guide]]
-  * Cannot hang down from the rail in Crew's Lounge, so you must run around the railing. You cannot hang down from the rail in Deck-D. +
-  * Cannot roll into the Holds No. 2 door. +
-  * If the camera is equipped headed into Holds No. 3, it will be automatically unequipped after the cutscene. +
-  * Cannot skip the Commander's "We the Marines" scene after uploading the photos. +
-  * Cannot skip the elevator returning scene at the beginning of the Plant chapter, unless a guard is alerted (music changes). +
-  * You don't get teleported back when receiving the codec before the Fortune fight. +
-  * If you have the box equipped at the end of the Fortune fight, you will ascend up the elevator with the box on. +
-  * The Bomb location on the Helipad before Fatman is closer to the stairs, rather than at the far north end. +
-  * To skip the retinal pattern cutscene, you must press x once during the fade in, or else it will be unskippable (do not mash). +
-  * You must wait the full ten seconds as Ocelot walks to you in the hostage room. +
-  * You cannot fire a Stinger missile downstairs in between the railing gap during Harrier. You must use a similar strat upstairs.  +
-  * FMVs do not count towards IGT, thus over seven minutes are subtracted from the final result. +
- +
-===Difficulty===  +
-  * (Very Easy) IR Sensor placements is the regular 3 rather than 1. +
-  * (Very Easy) Gun Cyphers take 3 shots from the top rather than 1.  +
-  * (Very Easy) M9 does not spawn on roof if you don't pick up the one from the docks. May need to swim in air to get the M9 in the docks. +
-  * (Very Easy) Fatman has more health in comparison to Substance/HDC. +
-  * (Very Easy) Camera is present at the entrance when you first get in Shell 1 Core.  +
-  * (Very Easy) After Harrier heading towards the Strut L Perimeter, the cutscene with the 2 guards play while they do not on Substance/HDC. +
-  * (Very Easy) There are 2 guards behind the windows in Strut L Perimeter.   +
-  * Nikita position is straight ahead in Shell 2 Core B1, it is in this position on all difficulties. For Very Easy on HDC and Substance it is in a much closer spot. +
-  * (Very Easy) Pentaz is required to avoid shaking on the PSG1/PSG1-T. +
-  * (Very Easy) Extra guard leading to the door to Ascending Colon (similar layout to Normal and above). +
-  * (Very Easy) HP bars of RAYs are similar to Normal. Have to destroy 5 instead of 3.  +
-  * (Normal) You must kill the A Series to end RAYs. It's total RAYs killed, not health bars. +
-  * (Normal) Solidus has less HP. +

- +

-  * Olga will always spawn and go left immediately allowing for setup of the loop. If you die and continue it will then become randomised. +
-  * On European Extreme the Cypher in front of the entrance to Strut E will not turn fast enough to see you if you move fast. This is due to the lower framerate.  +
-  * Fatman is loopable on Extreme and European Extreme.  +
-  * At the near end for Guard Rush in the Tanker Chapter, in order to finish the fight with USP headshots and retain a 0 kills play through, you must tranq the first guard that spawns then follow up with two successive headshots. This is due to the lower framerate. For a more detailed example check the Bosses page.  +
