I don't know, I guess lots of practice. I haven't played it much recently so Imay be a little rusty.

I beat Olga in 14 secs once. I was very proud of myself to say the least.

with vamp u get the stinger launcher and at the very start, keep firing at him (preferably with the brown wig) he wont have a chance to leave if u do it right. it does work, i tried it. altho i didnt record . DOH! it cause i alot of lag which slows the clock down.
speaking of bosses. try them on extreme mode. im soo relieved i got all the tags first go thru extreme lol.

wow! i finally beat vamp in a quick time, well it wasnt recorded but this is how u do it, when vamp jumps into the pool fire alot of grenades with the grenade luancher in about 6-8 before he comes back up, and when vamp comes up hes DEAD!

The Vamp Stinger thing needs very good timing, to get them to hit at the right the exact point to make him not move so you can keep shooting at him.

u read PSM2 as well? do u get it every month? my best time for fatman is 25secs i think, i did that by shootin him straight away and not lettin him skate away. my time for the other bosses are pretty poor tho

i dumped ps2 official for psm2
psm2 is better value since offical is nearly 7 pounds here now and they repeat the demos.

i think PSM2 is better value, the magazine has better content i think. but you dont get a playable demo. i have almost every issue of PSM2.

I havent tried any of those tricks, buy I will. By the way, Game Pro and Game Informer are the best gaming magazines because they cover all platforms and aren't baised toward any of the platforms, and that is nesscesary when reviewing games and their quality.

Yes, Game Pro is very good. That's how I found out about Budokai before it was anywhere near to being released.
How do people constantly do that?

I used to get Gamemaster as it covered all formats, but I've got it in ages, I sometimes get OPM and PSW (I think it's called that) as well as that one with the repeating demos that costs too much (Can't remember that either...)

Here in the Land of the Free, I think the best gaming mag is EGM. Its not strictly Playstation and has no demo, but it is one thick sucker with tons of news, reviews, previews, features, and other stuff. I don't subscribe but I usually end up picking it up. Say... It just occured to me that this post isn't about magazines.... I'd better mention the topic quick!
Umm... yeah. Those times sure are fast! (Phew, that was close!)

how do u beat the rays in 7 sec.???? that's impossible!!!

and how do u beat fatman in 21 sec.??? he wastes that much time alone during that batlle standing back up when u knock him down!!!!

the only one that is really believable is solidus, my record for him is about 20 sec. and that is not counting cut scenes.(man I love that sword!!!)

I read it in PSM2, people posted there times in, with PROOF, you must know that there are some people at games who are really good, just becuase we cant do them times, dosnet mean anyone else can:P .

did u see the proof posted in the magazines????

and also you can't tell me it is possible to beat the rays in 7 sec. , mabye one ray on very easy with a fast loading secret or something, because if u think about it realistically, how many hit does it take to kill a ray (8 or so) and how long does it take for a stinger missle to travel to the ray and hit it, also u have to wait a while cause the stinger only fires 1 missle every 4 seconds or so, it won't allow u to even shoot another one while the other one is still flying around!!!!!

Same goes for the harrier, but the time for the harrier is a "bit" more believable!!!!!!!!!!

but as far as the rays go u cannot tell me it is possible to defeat all the rays(even on very easy) in 7 sec.

yeah, if ya get too close they use those lasers but if u were to fire then de equip and re-equip the launcher. would it then be possible?

Matrix, give it a rest. I've defeated the Rays in like 30 seconds before, don't get all worked up, even if they ARE faking it, it isn't the end of the world, so chill out dude.

Those times ARE quite impressive, if they're authentic anyway. I've beaten most of the bosses in less than a minute, all except for Olga anyway. I was never good at fighting her :(

It takes less than 8 hits to kill a ray more like 4. Plus the rays have a recovery period where you can't actually hit them after you have hit them.;)

I was playing MGS2 today, and I just figured out that Vamp can be defeated in less than 10 seconds, try this:

At the beginning of the fight, while he's bowing, get out your Stinger Launcher, hold R1, and aim at his midsection, and fire like crazy. Slowly follow him and keep firing, and you'll beat him in an insanely low time. The stingers stun him, and keep him from going down into the water, so you can just keep hitting him over and over until he dies. It takes some practice to keep the combo going though, usually he'll escape the missiles. I can do it perfectly now, though.

Now that I remember I did that to beat Vamp on extreme coz i couldn't be stuffed doing it the hard way. Pretty cool trick, but as for the other times I find them hard to believe well most of them anyway.;)

i think i already polsted that but no matter. thats a more descriptive way, and it does work. u get slowdown due to the smoke. but it slows down the timer too.
