Much more enjoyable than MGS1 and a lot more silly in a good way. Raiden as the new main character was a welcome addition and the setting was great. The story was very backloaded so a lot of the concepts they introduce either get a 30+ minute cutscene explaining it or nothing at all, but after letting the game sit for a bit everything made sense.

The sheer ridiculousness of the last 3 hours of the game was very entertaining and I thought the Arsenal Gear section was cool in how it presented one of the games twists. Gameplay was a massive improvement over MGS1 and the boss fights were much better this time round although some fights did get a little tedious. Overall a great game.

8/10
