The sequel to the best Playstation game ever made, and it totally lives up to the hype.
Yes I am talking about Metal Gear Solid 2, the game which people where all excited about during 2004-2005. The game is bigger and badder than ever before with improvements in nearly all aspects of the previous game, with exception to a few hiccups here and there.
The graphics are perfect, there I said it. No game had ever seen the highest potential of the PS2 until this game came out. From the seamlessly flawless in game graphics to the near cinematic like cut scenes, this game has it all in terms of graphics. The voice acting is solid once again and sees stars like David Hayter return to the game. Along with a brilliant soundtrack, this game is a force to be reckoned with; all that remains is the game play (and we know Metal Gear games will always be perfect in this category).
Now you can hang on railings and duck& roll to get out of trouble, which is very welcome since the AI of the enemies has GREATLY improved and you won't be able to get out of jams so easily this time. You can aim in first person this time if you wish and will make things much easier since shooting someone in the head will do more damage than shooting someone in the arm or leg. You start of with a tranquilizer gun which knocks out your enemies for a brief period of time, but be careful not to leave the body in open areas where other guard's will see it, otherwise they will sound the alarm and call for backups.
So why isn't this game got a perfect score? Well it's mainly because of the story, don't get me wrong, the story is well thought out and has enormous depth to it but it has way too many twists and turns which will confuse any person who plays the game for the first time. Also on a Very disappointing note, Solid Snake fans will be upset half way through the game when a certain "surprise" unfolds.
But this game still deservers to be called one of the best games ever made, it has everything a gamer needs and is a class act from start to finish!
