Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty for PlayStation 2 Videos >>
Summary This game is the single greatest game that I have ever played. The story is quite intruiging. The fighting is fierce. An best of all, there is a lot of subtleties that can only be found in a very well designed game. It is a must have for any collection.Sound The sound is excellent, and the score fits this game very well. The mood, at times, changes, and the score does along with it.Gameplay The gameplay is great. The contols do take some getting used to, but once you have it down, the game is rather easy. The dog tags are one of the coolest features I have ever seen in a videogame. It is quite fun to hold up some guy, and once he drops his dog tag, shoot him.Would you like to Comment?

Summary i got this game the day it was born and was moved at the power of a PS2. I havd'nt played it in a while, but yesterday i picked it up and played all the way through. Let me tell you something ,if you dont watch the cutscenes you are missing half the fun, they are incredible. And about all this splintercell BS...its a good game but it is no comparison at all to mgs2. it is like a year and a half newer and still dosnt live up to metal gear SOL...splintercells staff should be embarassed.Sound sound is amazing, bullet hulls clinking the ground, bird crap skweaking on the floor from your shoe. they are just as good as teh graphics.Gameplay Gameplay is extremley easy to learn and there are a variety of amazing new aspects. First person shooting mode is definitley the big breakthrough as far as gameplay goes. And hanging mode is prety awsome too. The game has so many different ways or styles that it can be played. you can sneak and never be spotted and not harm a fly. Or you can be a bloodthirsty rambo(wich i dont recomend) but is still great fun.Would you like to Comment? Join VideoGameReview for a free account, or Login if you are already a member. Summary Back in the early 90's when the first Nintendo was popular, 2 Metal Gear games were released (the second one was called Snake's revenge), and that was the start of something beautiful. Then, another one came out for the Playstation 1 that left everyone in aww. No one had seen such a cinematic game. Now, with the release of Metal Gear Solid 2:Sons of Liberty, the technology has improved greatly and the story is deeper than any game or movie you can think of.Sound The score and the soundfx are another thing to love about this game. It makes full use of surround sound or just regular tv speakers. Just wait until you find the directional microphone and you'll see that the sound was used in an innovative way.Gameplay The gameplay consists of stealth and strategy. What makes it so great is that you have a variety of ways you can take down your opponent. Knock on the wall, throw a can in the direction you want your enemies to go, these are just a few of the dozen possibilities. The controls are easy and gives players complete comfort when accessing gadgets and weapons.Would you like to Comment? Join VideoGameReview for a free account, or Login if you are already a member. Summary MGS2:SOL, the long awaited sequel to the one the best games ever created, MGS1, lives up to all expectations. All the factors, i.e Gameplay,Story,Graphics add up & blend toghether to form , undoubtably, the best game available on the Playstation2 console.Hideo Kojima has done it again. Sound Sound too , compliments the Graphics & gameplay well. Not too loud, as required for this type of games. Sound Effects are excellent, & some of the songs in the soundtrack is excellentGameplay The gameplay, along with the story, is the main thing is MGS2 that makes it great. The gameplay is an excellent balance of adventure & action/stealth. Not to much action & not to much adventure, just balanced. The main thing to use in the action part is 'stealth'. Dispose a guard off without him knowing it, or else an alarm will go off, & search & kill teams will be deployedWould you like to Comment?

People call Vice City interactive, it doesn't even come close to the brilliance of Metal Gear Solid 2. I am going to Woolworthes right now with my £20 and am gonna buy this game. For those of you who live in the u.k, our games are rated differently. This game was rated a 15 over here. It desereved a brilliant 18. It is extemely violent and is not for people with a weak stomach.It is also very brutal, knock someone out and then shoot them in the head while they sleep, spray coolant spray in there face and blind them, or just kneecap them and drag there body around. Lovely. The worst thing about the game is the length of the codec calls and cutscenes, very annoying. At least they can be skipped though unlike the Getaway.Sound Not the strongest point for mgs. But it still get's a five. There is no in-game music but when you are discovered by an enemy and annying little soundtrack will start. It will make you jump if you think you're in the clear. Gun shots, sword slices and blood squiring are all brillaint. Best voice acting in any game as well.Gameplay Best in any game ever. Open lockers, hang off railings, do push ups, plant mines on people, defuse a bomb the professionnal way and many more solid snake sytle moves, the game has everything. Pure genius.Would you like to Comment? Join VideoGameReview for a free account, or Login if you are already a member.
