What was so confusing or dissapointing about the ending? It appeared ok to me, but it could have been better (seemed kinda Matrixy with the "this may or may not be real" and with the background misterious people running the show, etc.) But thats just me.

Well, I loved the ending, it was unexpected,I don't know why people hated it...
As for Raiden, well, I liked him, and having Snake as some kind of master was awesome, he was like a true hero, showing to Raiden how to do the things.
I liked the Raiden/Snake relationship, very cool if you ask me!

I waited a Long time FOR MGS 2 and thats the ENDING!!!

I very dissapointed in overall!

I hope part 3 is a Good one!
I would LOVE to see THE MSX versions of Metal Gear and Solid Snake Remade using the MGS 2 engine!
now that would be a GREAT way to make up for the ending!

Play TED on Kawaks or Kalliera!
just Look me up online or Post a CHallage!

well, i didn't mind the ending.

the only part of the game that really bothered me was the fact that when you were spotted by guards and got into a bad situation you could just kamikaze and start from the last room you entered. that was kinda' lame. It's not something i would purposefully do, but the fact that you could do that was um..silly.

Yeah, very "conspiracy teory-ish" ending :)

But seriously, even though I don't think it
was a perfect ending, but it was nice enough
for me. No complaints here!

And is anyone collecting MGS2 toys? I'm so
happy that I found Raiden and Revolver
Ocelot :)

My little brother has all 6 toys... I laugh when I see his collection of MGS and Resident Evil toys, he has them grouped in "classification".(Big villian toys, Snakes, MGS male characters, Resident evil heros, RE small villians, and MGS females) anyway... I laugh because he put Raiden with the girls... laugh with me at Raiden's lack of masculenity!

And also about Raiden, at first i hated him, but i eventually got to like playing as him ok. It was pretty cool having Snake as a mentor.

I found a Solid Snake figure, but i will slowly try to get em all to make the metal fish gear >:D

You are right master of the spoony material, but i wish he would have gotten the sword earlier on the game, that weapon kicks.

I dont own a PS2 but my friend let me borrow it to see if i liked the game, when i buy one ill be sure to get the game.

It's not so easy on extreme wingzero ;).

Personally, I thought it was pretty good.. But I rented it rather than buying it.

you can still use the kamikaze tactic. extreme is fairly hard but not the most difficult thing i've played.

Ending was bad. I hated it. Not only did it not explain anything, it was full of plot holes and weirdness. Plus there was only one! MGS had two! Bleh.

The game was great though. I just wish you could get the sword earlier in the game, because they put so much work into it.

Well, you're right about the ending. It did have plotholes and weirdness and stuff, and there was only one, but that's what sequels are for. In the next game HOPEFULLY some questions will be answered.

As for my take on the ending to MGS2. It was OK. I really didn't have a problem with it. I WOULD have a problem with it if the beginning of MGS3 DIDN'T show what happened when Solid Snake went after Liquid Snake when he was in METAL GEAR RAY. If they don't explain that it would suck, because that is where they need to start the third game from. If they even had a flashback sequence it would be OK. I think the next game will be the best.

Kojima already said in an interview there won't be a MGS3. Or if there is, that he won't be directing it. Personally I'm not sure I like either idea, but that's what he said.

Oh, there will be an MGS3, but Kojima won't be in charge, which worries me...
I hope that the quality doesn't suffer.
BTW - I thought the ending was OK, if a little sappy with regard to Raiden. It was confusing, yes, but confusion leads to a desire to see the story resolved in the sequel, as it should be interesting to see how all of these twists and turns come together. Without Kojima, though, I'm worried that the story's complexity might grow out of control and lose direction...

Kojima also said that if a lot of the fans really miss him and demand him to come back he probably will.

Well he also said the horribly vague comment of something along the lines of "I may come back to do MGS3 if people really want me to" I believe...
