Trivia:

In late 2000, Konami announced the development of "Metal Gear Solid X" for the Xbox. It was initially thought that it would be a version of Metal Gear Solid (1998) (VG), but Konami later announced that it would be a combination of Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty (2001) (VG) (which was still in development at the time). Eventually the project became an updated port of Metal Gear Solid 2, was renamed, and was released on multiple platforms.

Quotes:

[if you continuously make Raiden kill lots of seagulls during a sniper mission where Raiden needs to protect Emma as she crosses the strut to the other strut, you get a Codec call]
Colonel: Raiden, do you actually enjoy abusing helpless animals?
Rosemary: [shocked] I don't believe it! I had no idea you were that kind of a monster!
Colonel: I don't understand you. But if you're satisfied, then get back to the mission.
[Codec communication ends]

Can't Say Goodbye To Yesterday

Wow!

I've been a fan of the metal gear solid series ever since it first appeared on the PSone. I've got all the games so far. I've just completed substance the other week. I completed sons of liberty in two days. After the credits had gone off, all i could say was "That game is the best game i've ever played" and after completing substance all i can say is that the game is perfect. The vr missions are very challenging and take alot of time to figure out a way to the end. The skateboarding is great to play on and i never get bored of playing on it. The snakes tales were better than what i expected. I expected them to be just like the vr missions but with Snake. They were alot better than what the magazines said about them. And what made it even better was that you got sons of liberty with it aswell. If you have got sons of liberty, get this! There is so much here that will keep you busy for ages. Well it did with me. This what sons of liberty should have been. Congratulations to Hideo Kojima on another masterpiece!
