Ok see, the mission is something that you can't even talk about because it just leaves you damn straight speechless. I mean, the game involves so much blab that at the end of it you're thinking to yourself, "Ok, what the fuck just happened." That's the impression that this "mission simulation" left on me, lot's and lot's of nonsensical nonsense. I mean, it really didn't help that I never played the first MGS game, but ah, I got by...with a major headache. All in all in the end I was very impressed by what was my first Playstation 2 game, a game that in essence made me want to continue discovering what this grand system had to offer.
The game starts out making sense...basically. OK so you go right, you're styling as Solid Snake ready to kick some ass and get intel on the fucking "nuculer" shit before something bad happens. Oh, too late, something bad happens, and now you're some chick named Raiden!! So then as this chick your mission is to basically get to the middle of the hudson in Manhattan, and as polluted as you thought the river already was, now there are friggin nuke shits in a tanker!! But putting all plot aside...this part actually isn't that bad.
Now see what you have to understand is...that this game plays like you're being constantly nagged by your mom. Yea...every 5 seconds you're being called about how to do something or where to go and whether or not you remember the first time you met your girlfriend. Sheesh, you could have at least given me the option to turn my phone on vibrate!!...or sumfin'. But this isn't all bad, because many of the game's weirdest and most key cinematic moments are triggered by these conversations. And the battles, ha, the strangest and most interesting.
Regardless of what you fancy as long as you can take a game with rather slow gameplay to test your patience, you will be rewarded with one of the greatest cinematic experiences anywhere. It's like you paid your cold hard cash in order to see the best action movie ever made. Although I cannot say too much in this review without spoilers, it is true that this is a must play on the Playstation 2. Get past the fact that you're using a chick most of the time. And yes, she is a chick, because when Raiden is naked...she has no balls. Andddddd....cut.
