Konami – Metal Gear 2: Snake’s Revenge


00:00:03now following up the success of the

00:00:05original Metal Gear game for the NES

00:00:07economy created metal gear to now metal

00:00:10gear to solid snake was released only in

00:00:12japan on the MSX video game system and

00:00:15never made its way over here now for the

00:00:18American audience economy had their

00:00:21American division create what’s referred

00:00:23to as the black sheep of the Metal Gear

00:00:25Solid series this was metal gear snakes

00:00:28revenge now typically Metal Gear is a

00:00:31stealth game and really created the

00:00:33genre but I guess to appeal to the

00:00:35American audience or the North American

00:00:37audience the the company decided to sort

00:00:40of take snake and a sort of harder edge

00:00:42sort of area and had him actually being

00:00:45the aggressor in this game hence the

00:00:47name snakes revenge now not only that

00:00:49snakes revenge have a pretty crappy

00:00:52plotline but it was really just a

00:00:55shallow game that had you running and

00:00:57gunning and and taking on enemies and

00:01:00really didn’t have that feel of the

00:01:03original Metal Gear now it did have some

00:01:05side-scrolling levels that were just

00:01:07sort of tacked on there but really this

00:01:11game was so bad that economy doesn’t

00:01:14officially recognize this game in the

00:01:16Metal Gear series so when you play metal

00:01:19gear solid that series of games now you

00:01:22never hear any reference the events that

00:01:24have heard in this game whereas you will

00:01:27hear references to the original Metal

00:01:28Gear game or even metal gear solid or

00:01:30middle gear 2 released on the MSX but

00:01:33this mel gear sakes revenge is a gem

00:01:35only for the fact that it is the black

00:01:37sheep in the Metal Gear series and

00:01:39rightfully so it’s a pretty crap
