I agree totally, what's interesting about Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, is that many of the elements that made Metal Gear Solid such a fantastic experience first debuted in this title. Including the epic Hind-D battle.
A pity this game is often roped in the with risible Snakes Revenge, as this classic never saw the light of day off of the shores of Japan and the MSX.
However, thankfully, there is a high quality fan translation out there, which goes highly recommended.
For those willing to sleep at work, be bossed around by ever monolithic risk-averting publishers, sacrifice themselves to deadlines, all for relatively low pay.
For those that wish to follow their dream it's all well and good, but these skills will offer little if the market is hit with another mid-80's level collapse. And with the ever saturated games market, it seems likely.
COWBOYNEAL CONFIRMS - APPLE IS DYING El Zeiko - Gnaa, Nigeria.
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered Apple community when Slashdot pie magnet CowboyNeal confirmed that his baseball bat has dropped yet again, now down to the fragile case of his worthless Apple Powerbook. Coming on the heels of a recent GNAA survey which plainly states that CowboyNeal has finally LOST calories due to his savage beating upon his shitty Apple Powerbook, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. Apple is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by CowboyNeals powerbook being smashed into pieces like Rob Malda's anus at a GNAA press conference
You don't need to be a CowboyNeal to predict Apples future. The smashed casing is on the wall: Apple faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Apple because Apple is dying. Things are looking very bad for Apple. As many of us are already aware, Apple continues to be bat raped. Sweaty enraged blubber flows like a river of blood.
Apples Powerbook is the most endangered of them all, having been smashed to a bloody pulp by resident obese slashdot editor CowboyNeal, who was quoted as saying, with sweat and fat streaming down his several chins, "FROM NOW ON THE ONLY MACS I'LL BE BUYING WILL BE BIG MACS". The sudden and unpleasant departure of his unwanted and crippled powerbook only serves to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any doubt: Apple is dying.
Fact: CowboyNeals powerbook is dead

Ignoring the large amounts of hyperbole in the parent post, the advancement of graphical excellence is not going to be the root cause of an industry crash. It's when the market becomes too weighed down with licenced pap and the ever risk fearing monolithic publishers become too bland and generic for their own good.
Doesnt matter if we're dealing with 2004 or 1992 graphically, for as long as the gameplay is top notch and the hype machine keeps turning there will still be a large enough market to keep the wheels towards near photo-realism turning.

It's yet to be released in the UK, this country being almost always left a few months behind when it comes to film releases. And this is a BBC article after all.
