MSG1 gameplay was groundbreaking with stealth... with time the gameplay became dated. But any fan of MGS played the game for the story. If you dont understand the story, didnt played all games or simply dont like complex stories in videogame, then of course you wont like MSG. MSG story range from politics, eugenics and genetics, technological advancements, cyborgs etc. Is not a hollywood story.... and that what makes interesting. Go watch 007 and stop complaining of something you dont understand.

First of all, there are a great many people on this forum who are merely trying to point out that Kojima's writing is too heavy handed (which it is) and preachy (which it is). Nobody here is downplaying Kojima's use of current issues or human emotion - just his DELIVERY.
Second, why is it than anyone who disagrees with Kojima MUST be an X-bot. Some people need to GROW UP and realize the different people have different tastes. I don't begrudge you that you enjoy Kojima's writing, so you should act in kind. The Metal Gear series hit its peak at MGS 1. After that, it went of the deep end - and became very self congratulatory in the process. I am not an X-box fan, I only own a PS3 (and a Wii), so the this argument is void....
Oh, and it's not about me not appreciating art or story. Come to think of it, this post makes it sound as if Kojima has a monopoly on these stories well have I got news for you. "Politics, eugenics and genetics, technological advancements and cyborgs," were all addressed (with better and SLIGHTLY less heavy handed writing by a little TV series you might have heard of.
It's called "Star Trek", and it came out in the 60's.
Bottom line, it is a game, it should be fun, people have fun in different ways, deal with it. It's not a conspiricy, it's life.
