So I finally played this again after a few years. I remember being totally confused by it, but now all seems clear and I can fully appreciate this game. Its not as shitty as I initially rated it, still I prefer MGS3 and MGS.

Anyone knows what's the difference between MGS2 and MGS2:substance ? i played both and didn't see it

Just the addition of VR missions and stuff.

MGS was followed up by MGS: VR Missions (MGS Integral in Japan)

MGS2 -> MGS2: Substance

MGS3 -> MGS3: Subsistence, which added online play

Substance is a real word, but what the fuck is a Subsistence? I think Kojima started to run out of ideas at that point, not applying that to Portable Ops, that's for sure though.

lol you guys have never heard that word before?

subsistence = a means of surviving

example: I can't subsist on donuts alone...I need coffee too.

Subsistence is multiplayer online. When it was first released it was $30 USD brand new, got it at Best Buy. What's REALLY cool is that the original Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake are included on the 2nd disc. The first Metal Gear had been released before on the NES but this is the 1st time that the real Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake has even seen a US release, since Metal Gear: Snake's Revenge is a totally different game and non-canon to the storyline. MG2 Solid Snake is the true sequel to Metal Gear.






This is personal favorite MGS cover art.

Nope, never.
