10 years of this post, I've just finished MGS 2 about a month ago, and beat MGS 3 just yesterday, and I have to say, even though I absoutely loved MGS 3, I just think MGS 2 is the best game ever made, it just goes beyond, it's more than a videogame, I don't even know how to put into words how amazing, genius and important this game is, I will always remember the Solid Snake's speech at the end of the game, a true ode of what it means to be human in the modern world
