There's a syringe that is brought up and used often by major characters that contains a drug that suppresses and/or aid the function of their existing nanomachines.

One character breaks/dislocates his enemy's finger to get the item he's holding. Said Enemy quickly sets it back into place, apparently none the worse for wear.

While it is not technical cheating (it is explained later on it was all a facade for her and her son's protection) after Rose assumes Raiden's death, she gets with Colonel Campbell and acts as his girlfriend or wife.
It can also be assumed if you view Snake and Otacon's relationship as romantic in some way, that Otacon and Naomi's hookup could be seen as cheating. It is not treated as such.

One boss fight pits you against a character who can possess the bodies of others to make them fight for her. Said character is also possessed herself, by a long deceased character from a previous game in the series.

If Solid Snake gets too stressed out during a firefight, he may throw up. He does this once in an unavoidable cutscene, too.

The player character, Solid Snake, must inject himself with a syringe full of nanomachines (technobabble magic) to calm himself down if he gets extremely stressed out in the heat of battle. Other characters do the same, and the player must also fight a boss battle by stabbing the opponent forcibly with a syringe.

There is never explicit sex on screen, but sex is implied between Naomi and Otacon. The Beauty and the Beast Unit are also wearing skin tight suits, and there are scenes of them with their genitals focused on by the camera.

It's not on screen but it's heavily implied that Otacon could have been assaulted by Naomi because he did not give a firm "yes" to the implied sex that they had. It's also VERY Implied that the Beauty and the Beast unit were as well.

There is very audible torture noises during the Beauty and the Beast fights such as gunshots, crying, screaming and so on and so forth. They are the way they are because of said torture. There is a very descriptive story about their torture/backstories post fights as well.
