Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance
Overall: First off, I know how you're probably going to react to the following statement, but read through it anyway.
I was wary, to say the least, about renting this game. I had played it on the PS2 at my friend's house, and I was disappointed (probably more to do with the controls than anything). I rented it out of shock, because I hadn't even remembered it came out. Boy, was I shocked at how absorbing this game is. It's more like playing a movie than a game!
Gameplay: I am probably one of the few who actually like the Xbox original controller. I'm 6"2, 215, and I have big hands, so I work well with it compared to the PS2 and GCN controllers.
I love the spy stuff. They just don't make games like this. Through the first scenes, I thought, "This is a REAL game," not like that crap I rented last week. (We won't name names).
Graphics: Very nice graphics. Not as good as HALOs, but right up there with them. I appreciate the little things, like the mud that comes off the bottom of your boots, and the dripping water.
Audio: Sound.......not much to say. I'm on the first level, so I really haven't had much time to listen, especially with all the hiding I do...
Suggestions: 1 thing: Free movement in 1st person mode. Maybe a better aim system, I can barely see the red dot. Nothing else but those. Well played, well played.
