Metal Gear Solid 2 - Master Collection - First Person Mode - Raiden
1You couldn't believe how much I loved MGS2: Substance. Not only did I get my own copy of the still sort mysterious* Sons of Liberty, it had my favorite thing about the VR Missions release on the PSone as well. That was more pick up and play moments and not long trudges to the next cool part that I must have been a lazy little prick to detest. Rigid weapons mode stages against targets? Nah... Over the top surreal and in-jokish stages with no replay? Fuck nah.. MGS music, action and it's character's distilled down into mini shards, which in turn liquefy and seem to crystalize in your receptors....? I mean yeah, fuck yeah!
I can't remember if this was in the original Substance (FPS mode) but it's a blast when my brain is wired to MGS/FPS at times. And I thought why did I not remember this and I might have pulled out another memory from a very standoff-ish loyalty I had to MGS even back then. See it was a COD fuck-fest at the time or it was happening very shortly after. I snubbed my little bastard nose at my beloved MGS entering that realm. I missed out once again due to misplaced loyalties and hills I could have fucked around on, instead of dying and decaying on. Also Raiden was my dude, until he wasn't (yes MGS4 Ninja Raiden. While I'm happy for and ultra sad for the dude at times. He could be naive and out of his element, but make no deadly fucking mistake. Raiden was Jack the Ripper in MGS2 and it's like nobody noticed that when disliking him at first) and I like his tactical prowess that only shows he is on-par and even better than Solid Snake? How you ask. It's the dive animation that Snake has where he crashes into the steps on a down slope, the only change in control that I see anyway where dude has the advantage.
*In the way that I rented the games mostly. I knew there was more there, I mean you could fucking tell with MGS even without being versed in Kojima. Somewhere along the line I became resentful of that then lightened up. But yes, there is more behind the scenes real or imagined with MG. MGS1 and MGS2 being my least corner scoured titles. I didn't even include MGS2: Substance any where in my list, when we discussed the final thoughts on Peace Walker. Substance is my Metal Gear nostalgia and it's pretty fucking great to rediscover something you loved, then began to hate, then when you drop all the bullshit... you find out it's just limits you placed on your own mindset and attitude towards anything and including games.
Another MGS article, but hey, I was feeling nostalgic and self criticism always deserves a reward. In my case it's writing about elderly, dead, goofy, ninja men with weapons.
