Is a Playstation 2 classic? Forgotten gem? Is it the worst game in the Metal Gear series? The best? Overrated? Underrated? If you look it up online, you'll find every single one of these opinion floating around.\\xa0\\n\\n\\n\\nWhat do I think? You'll have to listen to the show to find out. Nice try.\\xa0\\n\\n\\n\\nI associate this game almost as much as any other with the PS2. It was one of the first games I remember buying for the second Sony console, and man oh man was I excited to get my hands on it. After playing (and quite enjoying) the original Metal Gear Solid, I couldn't wait to play more. The hype was real, but what was one of the most anticipated games of all-time became one of the most controversial once it got released into the wild. People would debate the creative decisions Kojima and friends made for years to come.\\xa0\\n\\n\\n\\nWhat couldn't be debated was the games sales numbers. MGS 2 ended up selling over 7 MILLION copies. We got Metal Gear Solid V recently, and the Metal Gear games have sold a combined 49 million units. So the Metal Gear series is alive and well. But there are gamers out there that abandoned the series at this title. Was I one of them? Was my guest Bradley McCue? Did we like Raiden? What about Snake?\\n\\n\\n\\nDoes this game suck?? No, it doesn't. But do we like it? Have a listen and find out.\\xa0\\n\\nLearn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices"
