Lol.

MGS2's story is great, I don't get all this "disaster toward the end" crap.

MGS3>all

I don't get it either. Didn't Ocelot explain that the trials you faced in MGS2 was just a clever reconstruction of Shadow Moses (MGS1) by the Patriots? Basically, if MGS2 was a mess, you think MGS1 was also

 

 

It was a disaster. Please explain exactly what Campbell was saying to Raiden during their 30 min codec conversation before the fight with Solidus. Unless that part was so confusing to you and others that you just skipped it alltogether.

And how does Vamp go from superhuman bloodsucker to someone with enhanced Nanomachines in MGS4? That made no sense at all. If it was technology that allowed Vamp to run on water, how did Snake not abtain it before then, considering that Mei Ling had access to advanced technology through the SSCEN?

 

 

Bolded: That was one of the most intellectual and mind expanded pieces of dialogue ever presented in modern media. It may have seemed confusing to those who have never picked up a philosophy text book in their lives, but it doesn't make that segment of the game any less profound.
