Metal Gear Solid 2: The Sons of Liberty (2001)

We're continuing two projects at once this week: the continuation of 2001: A Game Odyssey as well as our closer look at Hideo Kojima. That's right, Metal Gear Solid 2 is the best of both worlds! It's a critically important follow up in one of the biggest franchises of all time, and this is the game where the rails really come off. How does "the ending" feel now 22 years later?
