MGS2 starts off with Snake in NYC, checking on the new Metal Gear RAY built to counter the numerous Metal Gear REXes. RAY is taken onto an oil tanker, which is subsequently attacked by soldiers led by Colonel Gurlukovich. Explosives are planted across the tanker. A unit of marines are instructed on the RAY and its role, after which Ocelot appears, as well as the Colonel, and they and the marines' commander end up in a Mexican standoff. Ocelot breaks it by betraying the Colonel and killing the commander, then detonates the explosives. Liquid Snake's persona takes control of Ocelot through his transplanted arm, and he boards RAY, blasts the tanker in half, and escapes. Ocelot later tells Solidus Snake about the successful mission.

The next part of the game stars Raiden, two years later, in a decom facility, who is sent to rescue the President and other hostages. Raiden finds that the whole facility is an elaborate coverup of a project to creat a mobile fortress, Arsenal Gear. Solidus and Ocelot want to use the facility to destroy the Patriots who stole RAY. There are a ton of double-crosses, and Raiden finds out he was tricked into working for the Patriots to eliminate Solidus. Snake is aboard as well, battling both sides and intending to destroy Arsenal. Ocelot reveals himself to be a double-agent again, and tries to kill his allies. Liquid controls him again, intending to use RAY to destroy the Patriots, and sets Arsenal to collide with NYC. Snake dives out of Arsenal after Liquid. Arsenal comes to rest, the Patriots' intentions are revealed, Solidus wants to use Raiden's implants to discover the Patriots' identities, and finally Raiden eliminates Solidus atop Federal Hall.

For extra credit, after Sept. 11, scenes involving Arsenal displacing the Statue of Liberty and half of Manhattan were taken out of the game.

*SPOILERS END*

GOD, that took a long time to type. Happy now?

And I believe he still thinks he knows more about video games than anyone else, Lana.

Yes I still do but I think you got that from wiki.

That was a summary of my own experience with the game, thank you. Though you accusing me groundlessly certainly brings your own answers' validity into question...

Anyway, answer my question. Famitsu, perfect games, how many, and what?

I'm betting you don't even know what a Super Famicom is and are running off to wiki that right now.

You realise it's the same machine as the one he was talking about? If you know what a S.N.E.S is, you know what a Famicom is.

It was sort of a test to see if he knew that it went by another name, I'm well aware of that fact 😛

Are we seriously trading questions here to see who knows more about video games? 😑

Seems a bit immature guys... shouldn't we get back to the topic?

BALLA SON BALLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hm...I think Nintendo are going on the way to success and Sony/Microsoft are heading downhill ever so slowly, Microsoft having the upper hand over Sony and Nintendo holding all the cards.

That's what everyone said about dreamcast but it died don't mess with sony 😈 💃

Huh? I make a fair statement then you just n00b It all up. That was not said about the dreamcast and the only reason It died Is because of the game manafacturing the fact that there was a lack of It. And Nintendo have messed with Sony and won.

Sony will pwn nintendo because you can't beat sony it's that simple.

You know, can all this fanboyism just, like, stop?

We'll see in a few months what happens. I cannot see PS3 selling well with the pricetag it has.

Thankyou..I was merely stating that to beat Sony Nintendo don't have to do much since Sony's methods are becoming a bit more primitive and expensive.

I predict the future the wii will lose.

Why do you think the Wii will lose, when it clearly has more support in both the gamer and developer communities?

The point is that these companies make video games for profit, and that, to developers, the Wii is looking far more profitable. The PS3, as it is, and as the price is, will not turn a projected profit.

It all comes down to business, Halfevilraiden, which you, a 13-year-old who pretends to have a job, know nothing about. The Wii will sell well. The PS3 won't.

Well it might, or it might not.
