    Literally the best MGS. Well played. Gotta get that Blue Raiden Menu

    I love mgs2, but damn the combat is rough. I have trouble getting past the tanker part.

    There is also the one where you get into a locker then call Otacon, Snake is breathing heavily. Otacon calls him disgusting you do it enough times he stops picking up throughout the rest of tanker. As an FYI.

    Then there is the Raiden bed he gets strapped to call Rose, she has choice words if I remember right because of implications of tying her down.

    Man, 15 year old me went through some shit just to get my hands on this game. I saved and saved and saved only to get scammed on Ebay for a PS2. Ebay couldn’t do shit about it because I paid with a money order since that was one of the main forms of payment back then until PayPal came along.

    I bought the game along with some others from another seller and they actually shipped, but I had no console. 2 years later… 2004, I finally saved up again and I bought another console, but before it was shipped, my house in Miami was robbed and they stole my brand new sealed copies of MGS2, FFX, and Kingdom Hearts. The first three games I bought for the PS2.

    So now I had a console that I was lucky was shipped after the robbery, but no games. My fucking luck, right? Enter grandma to the rescue. She moved into the house after the robbery and felt bad about the whole situation that she bought me not just MGS2, but MGS3, FFX, and KH1 as well. She always spoiled me. She and my aunt bought me my first NES and SNES when I was real little.

    I was so fucking happy… but I had no memory card. So I said fuck it and just marathoned MGS2 then later MGS3. I remember beating MGS2 for the first time and the sun was rising outside my window as the sun was also rising in the game after Arsenal crashed into Manhattan. That was a gaming core memory for me. I couldn’t marathon FFX or KH because they’re long RPGs, but I eventually got my hands on a memory card and finished those games as well.

    Damn. This was a trip down memory lane.
