Trivia:

Although the English language script and dialogue remained mostly the same as first written in Metal Gear Solid (1998) (VG), a few lines and references were adjusted for better grammatical clarity, as well as lines referencing the Nintendo Gamecube's in-game controls (as opposed to the Sony Playstation version). Also, references made to Zanzibar in the original version of Metal Gear Solid were corrected to "Zanzibar Land", the ficticious nation that served as the setting for Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (1990).

Goofs:

Continuity: In the cutscene where Grey Fox slaughters the soldiers with his sword, he cuts one of them in half at the waist. After the cutscene, the player controls Snake to walk into the hallway in which the soldiers were killed, and the soldier that had been cut in half is no longer there.

Quotes:

Sniper Wolf: Do you want to die now? Or after your female friend? Which will it be?
Solid Snake: I'll die after I kill you.

Movie Connections:

References Akira (1988)

THE BEST IS YET TO COME

Perfect!

Only one word can describe this game... PERFECT! Everything about this game is perfect. I've played the original and loved it. This is even better. The story is the same and the characters are the same as the original. The only differences are the graphics and cut scenes. The cut scenes are the best that i've seen in any game. There are some that are hilarious. Some contain the best fights I've seen... ever! The voice acting is the best i've heard. Even though the control system is different to the playstation version, it won't take long for you to get use to them. If you haven't got a Gamecube, get one now! If you have got a Gamecube, get this! This is the best Metal Gear Solid game ever. Congratulations to everyone who worked on this game. It's a masterpiece! Please make more MGS games for the Gamecube.
