Right guys, time for number 2 in the epic metal gear saga, as I explained before, I'm doing the metal gear solids first then going onto the metal gears, so don't be bitchin'
The game starts off well, with the first part of the story, the tanker. Which is a good storyline, really gets you back into metal gear and helps out with learning all the new moves and getting used to the game. My issue is its got to make its mind up, if it's apart of the game, then it's too short, but if it's purely to get you used to the game its too long, it's in that purgatory of length of gameplay time.
Then we kick off into the main game, the ocean station octagon thingy. I can never remember the official name. But in this you do not play as the epic solid snake, instead you play as the girly raiden, who may look like a woman, but can really kick some ass.
The storyline is epic, but strangely familiar, keep that in mind... But it's a great game and definitely in my top 10, but now comes to putting on the independent hat and, if you've not played the first game, the tanker saga can become confusing, and the controls are a bitch, the guards are retards and the ninjas and cool.
The good
It's an all round good game the storyline is EPIC, the characters are likable and the way it's carried on is done nicely, normally sequels go down like a pile of cat shit, but MGS2 really held its own
The bad
As I said if you haven't played the first then the tanker will confuse you slightly, plus throughout they make references to the first on, so just play the first one and you'll be right as rain. Another thing is the difficulty setting is very odd, on every difficulty par European extreme, the enemies are full blown retarded, but when your on european extreme, it's like every enemy has the sight of a hawk and the aim of dead shot (batman reference ) so it's completely out of whack, but I have got my independent hat on, so I'm just nitpicking
The rating
My personal judgement 10/10
Independent rating 9/10 so still a good score
