HELLOOOO!I AM BACK!MGS2 is going to be the best.Hideo wont relax until MGS2 is original enough and the best game ever.
Expect the biggest variety on gameplay and many graphic details and small touches that create the most depth found on any action game.

Daedalus: Yeah I know that it was first released on Nintendo machine, the first on on the 8 bit or how was it? (correct me if Im wrong there) Thats why I wrote that I loved the one that came for the playstation, I just loved that one....so I hope that the next one will be as good as Metal Gear Solid for the playstation.

I would just like to say again that MGS2 is gonna be fucking AWWWWEEEEESOOOOMMMMMEEEEEE.
Just look at the first, and it will be improved a 110%
and another thing, i would have to agree with CHABPORF
a knife would be amazing. So u could slice their throats from behind but still keeping the neck break.
Some different kicks like a roundhouse?
maybe some more guns
like uzi's and assualt rifles
and i know that u have to dispose of the bodies once u kill them
pick em up and move them
wicked!!!!!!
and i think that other guards DO notice when their mate isnt patorlling their

Xciter, you should know that MGS for PSX is not the first Metal Gear game(3rd?). When Snake speaks of fighting Metal Gear before, and all the back story in the game is from other Metal Gear games.

Metel Gear Solid got its name from a game that came out in 1988(Snatcher). In that is a robot called metal gear that sounds like a 12 year old girl. Also, if you beat the Sega CD version Metal Gears Head comes out on a Sega CD, with wheels underneath rolling him around. And now MTS2 will NEVER come out on dreamcast. It is like Square Leaving Nintendo for Sony!

A few things I'm hoping for in MGS2:

1. A Jungle theme. The snow was cool in MGS but became boring after a while. It'd be cool to hide behind trees, bushes and such.

2. Be able to pick up the enemies weapons/take their clothes like Meryl did to disguise yourself.

3. Be able to attack/kill/tie up the enemies after you get them down. I don't know bout you guys, but I got frustrated when I couldn't nail them after they got knocked down .

4. CONTROL A METAL GEAR!! Maybe get it out in the Jungle, towering above the trees and wreak havoc with it's missles and ray/rail guns. Possibly have two Metl Gears fighting it out, YEA!!!

5. Guards won't stop looking for you after you've been spotted once or they find a body/notice a guard is not patrolling a certain area. You'd really have to think about your moves.

6. A KNIFE!!

Just a few thoughts.

I heard Hideo's working on making the player feel the humidity and temperature of the game's locales. Wonder how he's gonna pull that off... Hmm, maybe with a new peripheral exclusive to MGS2?

I really hope that they don't rush the game. The last one had all kinds of little touches that made it great(like sniping rats). Hideo should take his time, do things right and change the release date as necessary.

Maybe we'll find out about the mysterious 'Fox-Die' that was mentioned in MGS. Or maybe find out who 'Revolver Ocelot' really is... I have a hunch he might be 'Big Boss'...

I'd bet that that is the Japanese release, as the interview took place in a Japanese publication. Can't wait can't wait can't wait!! I think that we'll be seeing this games release early 2002. The first MGS took more than 2 years to produce so it seems plausible. Hideo and his team are one of the best developers out there, no doubt that they will floor us with this title.

To hear there is finally a release date for MGS 2 is music to my ears. I cant wait to get myself a copy and play on it. It should be absolutley awesome if the 1st one is n e thing to go by.
Just think, the graphics are gonna look bloody mouth watering.
