Hideo Kojima never stops amazing me, 9 November 2003
Author: Josef Saffady (klono9@hotmail.com) from Hagfors, Sweden

For starters this is NOT an ordinary videogame. It is a movie/videogame.

Hideo Kojima has taken a lot from fans and critics regarding this game. People complain on the lack of "playability". in other words: there are to much dialouge & videos and to little gameplay. But Hideo has said a thousand times:

-This is NOT an ordinary game! It's movie/videogame.

So I don't understand why people are complaining on those particular aspects. It's like complaining on a book because it's only text in it! It's outrageous!! Ok ok there is a LOT of videos and a LOT of dialouges. But that is just what it's supposed to be!

So stop complaining about it already!

I think this game is one of the best games in the world. And it has a LOT replayability value. BUT you won't get the story, witch is the best thing about the game, if you haven't played Metal Gear Solid 1 recently. So you can say that MGS 2 is a followup on MGS 1.
