Comments:

  • 1/29/12: Overall, the game runs properly, graphical/sound glitches are at a minimum. It's worth mention that MGS2:SoL requires PS2's pressure sensitive controls, so a PS2 controller is almost a necessity.

Known Issues:

Camera Pictures Mission

Taking usually right pictures in the tanker part fails.

Dragging corpses Fall Sometimes

The enemy bodies sometimes fall before you release them.

  • Solution: Use superVU0 as VU Recompiler
  • Fixed with microVU0 too since r4657

Twitching on Gun Aiming
