Having just finished MGS2 and Currently replaying MGS on the PC, I was wondering what everyone thought of these two games.  Personaly, I found them to be very immersive, and rich in plot and character depth.  I do have a few problems with the number and length of the cutscenes in MGS2, but Nothing is perfect.  So what did you all think of them, and will you buy Metal Gear 2: Substance, for the PC?  I am.

dunno, played MGS once on my friends psx, couldn't aim at all those guys coming from the door, got killed, gave up.

[the slammer]

MGS 1 = teh win.

MGS 2 = preachy, plot heavy, and the plot made no sense.  Plus I couldnt stand Raiden.  

[Zeronet]

i like it, but there was no option to vote "i like it, but cannot get substance due to a lack of a console".

[JR2000Z]

I can't wait for Substance.


I looooove the MGS2 engine.

[Gortef]

I've played MGS through on PC... and I loved it. It was truly awesome game. I also played th eVirtual missions quite a lot

MGS2... can't wait to have a chance to try it. I don't own a PS2 though so

[JR2000Z]

I got MGS PC months ago. It's hell to find since they don't make 'em anymore.

MGS was quite possibly the greatest thirty-two bit game ever created.  Fantastic gameplay, awesome graphics, and a storyline to rival Hollywood's greatest.  This was *the* Playstation game to own.  A masterpiece.

MGS2 was great, but didn't quite live up to its predessecor.  I, personally, felt that the Plant section of the game was flawed, and not just Raiden.  Granted, the pansy-boy was annoying, but wasn't the greatest drawback of the game.  Poor level design, a weak, and very confusing story (especially in the last fifteen minutes), and just...a lack of that feel of achivement left me wanting more.  I just hope that Substance can give me that extra...well...substance to a game that could've been a legend.

[Zeronet]

MG1 was a good game, MG2 is too short.

[Styxx]

Never played any of them. Plan to when I have the time, though.

[Stryke 9]

I've never played it, death to Konami!

[Dr.Zer0]

well, the game was great, I only played the first one though(and no cheats eather ) my favorite parts were killing metal gear, the Hind D and Sniper Wolf out in the snow field(and without any thermal gogels eather )

[delta_7890]

Hind D battle was definately awesome.  ^^;;

[Zeronet]

Well at least i got to vote properly

[Thor]

Zeronet, you ninny, didn't you read my post?  It asked if you will buy it, FOR THE PC!!!

I guess I should explain what I know about Substance.  It features a crap load of VR missions (300 was a number I heard)  and the ability to play the plant level as Snake.  Also same for the reverse (Raiden on Tanker)  And includes a set of missions called Snake Tales, which are non-related to the story proper.  There is also a wierd Tony Hawk-esque skateboard map And alternate missions.  It will be availinle on the PS2, X-box and the Computer.  I have no clue when though, just WID (When Its Done).  

I also agree that Raiden totally lacked Snakes cool factor, and the story was very deep, but I like deep so there. .  It Rose that I had the biggest issue with, what a girl.  You may continue

[JR2000Z]

The XBox version will come out first (late this year maybe) and the PS2 and PC versions will come out winter or spring of next year.


Its been months since anounced but only one existing trailer.

[Thor]

Oh yeah, I read that somewhere.  It is a nice trailer though, and I'm preatty sure there are other videos out there, somewhere.

[JR2000Z]

No, I don't think so. I'm pretty sure it was just that e3 trailer.


The only real news we had in a while is the contest for those who want their name in the game (for the dog tags).
