Kick Ass

First of all, hats off to Hideo Kojima for this kick ass game. The Metal Gear games (had they been constructed chronologically) would appear in this order: Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS2), Metal Gear Solid (PS1), Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty (PS2), and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (PS3). Sons of Liberty is a game filled with so many twisted plots that it will make you not want to skip through the cinematic scenes. This game gets so close to real life FBI/CIA shit that it isn't funny. You'd think that the government would have banned this game from hitting American shores. There are many points in the game that will make wonder "is this shit real"? You play between two characters, code names Snake, and Raiden. Snake is the 5 o'clock shadow, lone hero type of guy. He's made some mistakes, and he admits it. I like Snake because he's so real. He isn't a tough guy, he isn't some loner........he's just a man on a mission. Now, Raiden on the other hand......well.....let's just say he seems a bit too feminine for the job. Yes, folks, Raiden is indeed, a wimp. But, don't let that sack-chaser screw up your gaming experience. There's plenty of baddies to kill which include a fat guy on roller blades, an invincible female, an invulnerable vampire, and an old.........errr.....gunslinger. These characters (including Big Boss) make the game fun and interesting. The game is a big hit because it isn't the same old shit every time. It's a bit of a mix-match. You can shoot birds (real ones) and slip and bust your ass in their shit. I mean, come on, if that isn't a newbie, then I don't know what is. I'll leave the rest up to you to discover.
