This is a Ghost run of MGS2 on European Extreme difficulty.

Rules:

1. No weapons or items unless absolutely required
2. No damage
3. No interaction with guards in any way
4. Big Boss rank rules apply throughout
Note: One exception occurs during the Tengu 1 section. Snake inevitably always dies in the second segment of the area, making it impossible to proceed without using 3 continues (not shown in the video). After dying thrice, Snake gains increased aim and bullet stopping power. Only with 'Super Snake' is it possible to clear Tengu 1 without taking a single hit of damage. As a result, this run visually appears to be a Big Boss playthrough, however technically it is only a 99% Big Boss and a 100% Ghost and Pacifist run.

This is also an edited run. So while it is visually presented as no-save Ghost, Pacifist and Big Boss (99%) run, it is best to consider this video as a seamlessly edited, segmented showcase or a guide to attaining such a run. Additionally, in a few spots during the run, you will see black lines. These are visual artefacts, they are purely cosmetic and do not affect gameplay in any way.
