Weird when you think this is just the standard for a lot of game making today, and yet the concept of a cinematic game was once treated as something that would never catch on.
Kojima is in a league of his own. The Kubrick of this medium. Naughty Dog created a very cinematic experience with Uncharted. The first Halo was a great cinematic experience. But both of those games are more gameplay focused. For Kojima’s games the story is the focus.
I finished it shortly after it came out 22 years ago. Shit was crazy and there was no social media back then to tell everyone your thoughts. I had no friends in high school and the only other gamers really just played Tetris and Madden and that's it. Games were seen as things for kids so I was scared to tell my classmates. Now at my job me and my coworkers have been talking about the RE4 remake and the upcoming Jedi Survivor.
@@starwindamada5313 RE4 Remake and Jedi Survivor were both great games. MGS2 was mind boggling. I remember back when I finished it as a teen I had been playing several hours and when I got to Arsenal Gear it really messed with my brain. I thought I was going crazy for a bit. No game ever replicated the insanity of that sequence since then (to my knowledge). What a great game, and now we are blessed with an upcoming MGS3 remake too.
@Manu I loved 2.but I was upset with the twist. All the trailers and box art made us think we were snake again and got tricked.I wanted another snake and Meryl adventure.but still loved 2.just wanted something different
The reason I love the game is because it's so unique, especially the Tanker mission, Snake Tales, and the Skateboarding minigame. I know the Raiden storyline can be annoying with the whole romance going on between Jack and Rose, however after Arsenal Gear activates the entire game gets dark and psychological. The colonel starts going crazy and he even tells you to turn off the PS2, the soundtrack starts to turn weird when you enter the area where all the Metal Gear Rays are stored. Experiencing those moments as a kid can never be topped. Period.
@@teamyordle23 Honestly I just finished this game recently. I was a huge fan of mgs5 and 3 and really liked how mgs4 looked so I decided to play mgs2 to understand 4's story and wow it isnt as great as 3 or 5, but I loved it. it was just quality. Didn't like the last boss fight though I really thought the blade mechanics were too unrefined but other than that game holds up incredibly well.
@Fukushima I loved 2.but hated the twist.they teased throughout the trailers and box art,I wanted another true snake and Meryl adventure, I was a little upset.but I still loved it
it was so way ahead of its time, unbelievable. my favorite game of all time together with oot. both also have the best sound and score of all time. masterpieces.
Ocarina of time magical game this metal gear solid resident evil 2 and 3 and 4 and metal gear solid 3 and silent hill 1 2 and 3 are my all favourite games from a time when game companies wasn't greedy
17:04 - NARRATOR: "To enable players to identify with Raiden, his character was designed with particular care". 17:14 - KOJIMA: "We wanted him to be pure, virgin, white...".
One of the greatest games ever made. Not my personal fave in the series, although it is the first one I ever finished (and unfortunately my first MGS game was VR Missions lol). Still, MGS1, 2, 3 and 4 are timeless. 5 is good in certain ways, but feels very disconnected compared to the other main games.
Hey may be late but I rememebr it came with my release copy of mgs2 the standard mgs not subsistence or the hd collection but the original ps2 release I believe it was because the game got delayed or something they decided to add that in
@@Mgsdan12 Is your copy from a PAL release version? I remember that only PAL regions got DVD as an extra. I live in America (South America, exactly), it didn't come in NTSC version. Is it possible to get a 1:1 backup (I mean: with menu, chapters) of it? :) I've just found one in archive(dot)net but doesn't have English subtitles, just French and German. I don't understand both of them. :(
@@LeonPajuelo The DVD came with the European releases of the game. It was released in March 2002. The US and Japanese version came out in November 2001. So the bonus DVD was included to make up for the delay of the European release. I watched it loads as a kid, this upload is pretty much all that was included if I remember.

Kojima is the man who set the standard for a lot of game making today lol
Today’s games can’t even compare.
Kojima is in a league of his own. The Kubrick of this medium. Naughty Dog created a very cinematic experience with Uncharted. The first Halo was a great cinematic experience. But both of those games are more gameplay focused. For Kojima’s games the story is the focus.
18:27 this is the funniest thing I’ve seen in ages. That’s just the entirety of Metal Gears development summarised
I just finished Metal Gear Solid 2.
Magnificent!
i wish i could play these games for the first time again...

41:04 the moment I learned how to spell “damn”
MGS2! For me the best game of the series, and therefore The Best Game In The World!!!

@Manu how many people here still work with Kojima?
@João Dias I'd prefer his original mgs 2 story about Iraq and Iran he planned
Understanding japanese i can say that the translations just imagine things up that Kojima never said, wtf...
damn, that makes me really sad ngl 😢
anything you wanna share with the class??
It may sound crazy to say - but Metal Gear Solid & The Series is one of the best pieces of art ever created.
6:55 THAT’S a chad
I have watched this documentary thousands of times in the extra dvd of MGS2
Thank you. MGS 2 is my favorite out of the entire series.

This is incorrect,
"When you look at Metal Gear Ray, you see a cannon, a radar..."
He is talking about Metal Gear Rex not Ray.
25:27
Not a full one, but you can watch the MGS Saga which does talk about MGS3 in detail. The link is in the description.
@Patrick Fox why not cover mgs news?big talks of a mgs 1 remake by bluepoint
@@paulsmith9192 MGS3 Remake my dawg. Maybe we'll get another MGS1 remake afterwards tho.
このゲームの素晴らしさは自分の住む世界と異なるアメリカ社会、ひいては世界と社会そのものについて興味を持たせてくれたことだ

We NEED MGS to be in the Doomsday Vault.

Imagine if we would of gotten the real final battle Kojima wanted
What would have been the real final battle???
Thank you for uploading
If games had this today, it would be considered next gen. They don’t, and this was in 2001.
Game is back! We made it, MGS Universe is baaaack!
After all this year's, I have tears in My eyes
20:54
such a bad ass exoskeleton design
Throughly enjoyed this
17:04 - NARRATOR: "To enable players to identify with Raiden, his character was designed with particular care".
17:14 - KOJIMA: "We wanted him to be pure, virgin, white...".
Excellent documentary. Is there one for MGS3?
One of entertainment's most defining projects
the best metal gear ever made
I do agree with you, but Snake Eater is a very close second.
metal gear solid 4 is the best
MGS2 was one of a kind❤️
Does *anyone* have the full beta Vamp theme that's Flamenco?
Kojima used Legos to create a setting, eh? I wonder what next, Lego sets of Metal Gear?
Yes make it happen absolutely love everything metal gear solid related
Does anyone know which action figure he is showing at 20:36?
starship troopers powered suit by sentinel
wait a minute...he wrote MGS2 in 1998?!
This the bonus disc?
I never bought a brand new game again, after getting this one;
Only used, and dirt cheap!

Hi! Is this from The Document of MGS2? Another dvd? Where can I find it? (original, not a rip)

I felt cheated playing this game. There should of been a director’s cut or something.
I'd Prefer Kojima original mgs 2 story about Iraq and iran
