13 years ago today, Jack didn’t know what was so special about April 30th. 4 years ago, he probably forgot again.
That knowledge was overtaken by Monsoon's memes
That’s my birthday Fr

It's Rose birthday, right? 🤣
@@brunof3611 Go play mgs2. It is the day he met Rose and the day he killed his cool father.
No doubt in my mind, the series was at its peak with Sons of Liberty and Snake Eater
Have You played Portable Ops?
It was. Kojima still gave a crap about the series and told us a story he wanted to tell. Still the greatest 3 games ever made - they are art as video games.
@@vladik87 u don't like five?
@@JohnSmith-lr8xg honestly, I think five is one of the best stealth games ever made. I also think it’s MGS 2.5 in what it tries to do and it’s an incredibly intelligent game. It’s also another middle finger from Kojima to the fans and critics, just like like MGS2.
@@JohnSmith-lr8xg MGSV: The Phantom Pain (and I use the full name of the game for a reason) is probably one the greatest send offs to a series while being a commentary on a send off to a game series. It’s meta to a point where you are not sure what is the the truth of its own existence, just like the world today. Was it released and made as intended or was there interference? Who knows? Fans will debate. I think it’s brilliant. I still think the original trilogy is where the series should’ve stopped, but five is very special. It just might become another MGS2. And it will take years more for fans to really unpack it.
"Is that a... proposal?"
"These are for your ears... and your ears only..."
Ah, I love Raiden and Rose
"This is for your ears -- only..."*
"Do you know what day it is today?"
April 30th?
Every April 30th, I come here to thank and remember the greatest game ever made

Do you remember what is it tomorrow jack?

I got to visit Federal Hall recently. All I could think of when I got there was this song.
Awesome. I plan to hopefully visit it on April 30th of next year. Never been to the States before.
@@PSIkid did you ever visit the states? if so how did it go?
@@jacuzzi3271 Oh, it was everything I could have hoped for! I visited Federal Hall on April 30th as well. Truth be told, it was my main motivation to go to America (yes, I love MGS2 that much). Unfortunately, there was scaffolding around the statue of George Washington, so I couldn't get up close to it. In a way, I felt a lot like Solidus at the end ot the game: so close to the statue, yet it was just out of reach. Luckily, I did get to go inside Federal Hall itself, which more than made up for it.
Now that I've actually been to America, I have an extra layer of appreciation for Sons of Liberty. I've stood in the exact spot that Raiden and Snake stand in at the end of the game, so now, whenever I reach the ending, I can say "I was there!"
@@PSIkid I’m a New Yorker, born and raised. Safe to say I’m a bit biased towards mgs2 lol
If this is the last song that I hear, I think I’ll die happy.
It would be the best ending then.
Same, ill just sit down sometime need to complete second disk to finish journey, my first mgs thought)
Yes like lose consciousness as the music fades. 🤌
20 years ago today, what might just be the most prophetic and thematically important video game of all time was released. Happy 20th anniversary to Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. I got into the Metal Gear games for the very first time this year, and with both the series and our world being the way they are currently, I don't think there's ever been a better time to experience them, especially this game in particular. I'm glad that more people nowadays can recognise it for the thought-provoking masterpiece that it is. Thank you, Hideo Kojima, for this absolute work of art.
"Life isn’t just about passing on your genes. We can leave behind much more than just DNA. Through speech, music, literature and movies... what we’ve seen, heard, felt... anger, joy and sorrow... these are the things I will pass on. That’s what I live for. We need to pass the torch, and let our children read our messy and sad history by its light. We have all the magic of the digital age to do that with. The human race will probably come to an end some time, and new species may rule over this planet. Earth may not be forever, but we still have the responsibility to leave what traces of life we can. Building the future and keeping the past alive are one and the same thing." - Solid Snake / David Sears, 2009 (2001)
Beautiful words.
I read this whole thing in snakes voice out loud lol
Sears? How so? Is that their surname?
George Sears,David Sears,Eli Sears? Jack Sears?
Solidus' reign as president is as President George Sears. So by extension you could imagine that that's how John (Big Boss) was named.@@deimosok2003
@deimosok2003 no only solidus had a surname. Solid and liquid are just david and eli
2 is easily the best in the series from a story perspective it was so interesting and meta asf. The story could only work playing as raiden and that final sword fight was cool as hell
i think mgs3 is sligtly better gameplay and storywise
@@cybersushi4930 3 andt 4 are the best
@@wesleyvl8572 There's no definitive answer, it's a personal matter tied to taste.
Wrong. Mgs3 is the best stroywise. You lack a father figure if you disagree
@@GigaChadh976 🤓
Metal Gear Solid 2 is the best game of the franchise. Maybe it lacked mechanics like CQC or camouflage but the story was incredible, this game never gets old.
Metal Gear Solid 3 is great too.
I've played these two so many times and I will do it again.
Yeah, you only got punch punch kick and throws. Throws kinda useful in the Engine Room part especially let the guard call Caution phase just to skip the guard using radio repair part.
@@Bryan0411 I love to punch punch kick a guard and make him take down another like domino pieces. It's really funny when you make a pirouette and send a guard flying, too.
you're sixth
forgot how it is PROPHETIC and talked about issues that were WAAAAY ahead of its time, like net neutrality and social networks
@@KingOfFrye I'd say MGS3->MGS->MGS4->MGS2. But all are amazing, and even tho I rate MGS2 last, it is an amazing game.
Snakes speech to raiden is so relatable to me metal gear solid has gotten me through very bad times in my life currently going through a break up it’s hard for me I really loved her but she treated me badly metal gear solid will forever be in my heart
Things will get better, been in that situation bro.
Idk why but I just imagine MGR Cyborg Raiden and Rose just slow dancing in the living room to this
It's super heartwarming, yet it still fits with that trademark Kojima craziness
I can imagine that happening right after he came home from ripping Armstrong a new one
for some reason i imagined them dancing to california gurls
I don't know why but it was this comment that made me realize that Raiden is Robocop with a sword. Aside from the obvious cyborg connection both have similar arcs about them finding their own identities (or remembering hs own humanity in Robocop's case).
Imagine rose trying to put her head on his shoulder but he’s still got all those jagged enhancements on LOL
The MGS series is unquestionably one of the most important artistic acomplishments of this century and perhaps in history. Not to mention how significant it is to video games in general.
Time after time I return to this series because it has ways given me hope even in the darkest periods of my life and it moves me to try making this world a better place for those who will come after us.
MGS 1-3 for sure, 4 and 5? not so much
❤ I totally agree. MGS2 changed my life in so many ways. The story, game design, music are so unique.
I stare at the stars and the sky up above
And think 'what am I made of?'
Am I full of sorrow? Am I hurt and pained?
Or am I filled... with love?
I walk by myself on the streets below
And ask every child I know
"Do you think tomorrow will bring sun or rain?
Which one of these will show?"
[Chorus]
I can't say goodbye to yesterday, my friend
I keep holding on 'till the end
Out of the darkness there is no other way
Than the light leading to yesterday
It's there that I'll find
Inner peace not war
And dreams that I let slip away
I'll find the joyfulness I'm looking for
Way back in yesterday
"Do you remember what day it is?"
The day his cool dad died.
"Do you remember this place?"
…april 30th?
Today it's the day i met you
this sounds like it could be used in a late night tv show ending
Fifth. Such an amazing franchise isn't it? I've barely gotten into it and each song alone sends me on a 5 hour session of pure....well I don't know what to call the feeling exactly but it is certainly beautiful.
It felt like a lot of reminiscence and reflecting for me...looking back at my past experiences and seeing how much I've progressed as a man and a human in life in such a short amount of time.
What a way to cap off what was supposed to be the end of the series. Rest In Peace Carla White.
This is without a doubt the best song to fit the epic ending of such an awesome life changing game. All in this game was outstanding and unrepeatable. Love how a game could mark you for life like this one .
Metal Gear Solid 2 is the greatest video game ever made. I say that without exaggeration or hesitation.
MGS2 is the only game, to this day, that moves your soul and leaves you speechless. The gameplay was perfect, the music immersed you into the shoes of Raiden, and the narrative was poignantly meta, where it made you question why you played the game. Other games may want to keep you hooked and want you to buy another entry to expand some fictional lore, but not this one. Through this format, Kojima was giving a brilliant commentary on the nature of video games and how to better create a legacy outside of it. As in, "We spend so much time living the fictional lives of others. What about us?"
And at the end of it all, the game itself, through Solid Snake, directly tells you to find something to live for and pass your dreams to the next generation.
That's not a video game. That's the human spirit made manifest. No other game could hope to hold a candle to this 22 year old Magnum Opus.
Hegel's absolute
I just finished the game (now I feel emotionally empty)
Hey man i finished the game 2 weeks ago, and i still feel this emptyness, i think this is the most special piece of media i've ever experienced
Yup
It’s my existential and loneliness induced breakdown and I get to choose the music
Teach me what's the world is all about again mr kojima. Thank you for the wonderful childhood.
I personally think that Metal Gear Solid 2 was peak in music, map and art style. In specific Yoji was amazing drawing and bringing them to life this characters.
Yeah. Totally agree. The only thing I would change in the game is the music that plays during boss encounters - its too repetitive. Original Harry Gregson-Williams track "kill me now" was more aggressive and thus in my opinion suits better.
Beat this game for the first time a few days ago and the second this theme started playing it floored me. Did not think end credits could be that perfect.
"What are you laughing at?!"
"... Do you know what day it is today?"
"... April 30th...?"
2 and 3, those two were really something.

Unlike a lot of people in the comments, I’m not a fan of this game since its debut.. that’s because I wasn’t even born yet. I’m 15 years old now, I experienced the magic of almost the whole metal gear franchise.. and 2 left something that I can’t describe inside of me. This song reminds me of when I beated the game, I was so happy and excited because everything was great.. but the fact the game ended.. that’s why I can’t say goodbye to yesterday, that’s why I can’t say goodbye to Metal Gear. I love this franchise from the bottom of my heart ❤
I cried at the final monologue
i bought the hd collection and mgs4 not that long ago and honestly it was the best game series i ever experienced
Thank you for this beautiful comment,"@S3xOffender".
Damn, me too
this song always makes me want to cry what a perfect ending
Life isn’t just about passing on your genes.
We can leave behind much more than DNA.
Through speech, music, literature, and movies…
What we’ve seen. Heard. Felt…
Anger, joy and sorrow.
These are the things I will pass on.
That’s what I live for.
We need to pass the torch
And let our children read our messy and sad story by its light.
We have all the magic of the digital age to do that with.
The human race will probably come to an end sometime
And new species may rule over this planet.
Earth may not be forever, but we still have the responsibility to leave what traces of life we can.
Building the future and keeping the past alive are one and the same thing…

The man who makes the impossible possible.
ive always liked the art work for these games
May get hate for this but mgs4 is what got me hooked on the franchise I felt it was a perfect misunderstood masterpiece of a goodbye note to snake and the franchise for what it originally was. The game made zero sense only until you played 2 & 3 then everything all really clicks. Hands down though sons of liberty is the apex metal gear solid game solely for how it predicted the way our world turned out more or less.
Gonna be honest with you chief mgs4 did not make things click
@@hylianro depends how much you actually pay attention
Ive only played 2 3 4 and 5 if i was to rank them 4 and 3 would be at the top then 2 and 5
I'm in the same boat, but i'll admit i haven't played it since 2019 so i'm not sure how well it holds up.
It's not my favorite but i never played it in 2011 i'd never of become a metal gear fan.
my biggest issue with MGS4 was the over-reliance on "Nanomachines son!" to the point where it made no technological sense and retconned the super natural stuff too.
I started with metal gear solid 2, when I was maybe 13 or 14... by the time I was 16, I had gotten in deep in metal gear solid 3. I was addicted. To the game, the pain, the music, and even the realism in my mind. When I was 19, I tried to play Metal Gear solid 4 and I couldn't hack it in any way... Then, I turned 24 and played metal gear solid 4 again. I learned something that day... I was too young, too immature, and just not good enough at gaming to even make it anywhere in Metal Gear solid 4. I finally beat the game, through and through.. but it finally did it. A game to stand above all else in my eyes. A game to entice the mind, the heart, and even speak to the soul. I never thought it possible in any way, but I learned that sometimes you love what you hate, not because you hate it... but because you don't understand. Now that I think I do, I look for an understanding in everything, that I may not already know. Never give up. And remember; The fight may be harder, but watching others try and fail is harder.
haha u said the pain
I remember playing this game when I was 17 man what a great game and great memories
1 dislike comes from Solidus
And also Fatman
Dislike from La Li Lu Le Lo)
Solidus fucking died
@@HoboTheHenry His ghost disliked it
And Revolver Ocelot (maybe).
Jack? Do you know what day it is tomorrow?
beat me to it lol
I just finished this game. I need a moment to organize my thoughts. I loved every single bit of this.
god, i love this game
Building the future and keeping the past alive are one in the same thing.
I remember reading people that said this was awesome on the ending but the MGS2 that was gifted to me from a cousing was already faulty so when i got to the ending i watch the whole thing but muted because the CD was already faulty still my favorite MGS to the day
Thank you for recreating this!! I've been waiting for a copy of this for so long!!
Underrated best metal gear game
"Today is the day i met you" April 30th
I can’t really can say to yesterday my friend. 👍🏻
That artwork is so cool!
I AM IN love of this song just magnificent ❤💖
Thanks for uploading. 2024 and going
MGS2 is easily the best game in the series and I'm tired of pretending it's not.
I dont remember what happened the 20th of June, but im convinced that, i was happier Yesterday, and i will hold it with all my warm, because i cant say goodbye to yesterday, my friend.
I attribute my love for jazz entirely to Metal Gear.
Blessed are my ears to bestow upon this song. Thank you Carla White and jazz band
Why this reminds me of "If I Can't be Yours" from End of Evangelion?
Both songs are slow, jazzy tunes with a prominent piano, a solo female singer, and lyrics are a mixture of whimsy and depressed.
The game's setting and tone was also heavily inspired by both the anime and movies, Kojima is a prolific fan of Eva as well as of Anno
@@Made_In_Heaven88 And throw in some Ghost in the Shell as well.
@@Made_In_Heaven88 metal gear is an anime mechas, super intellegent people, unnatural things (like lady luck/fortune) you can predict things like an anime too
this game is my escape, and it put me on jazz lol
Of all the credits songs, this is my favorite.
We must leave behind the best of ourselves as we can, for we have a responsibility to out futures in our children, we must give them the best world we can and so that they will pass on the torch and live a glorious and good life according to their own will, not the previous generation. Father and motherhood is a gift not a curse, every minute no matter how chaotic or dark will be a moment for parents to give their children the inspiration and hope to live on. We must be good.
happy april 30th, everyone!
can t say goodbye to yesterday made me look at the sunset
That Carla White was some singer…
Thanks man for the effort of doing this
How come this song isn’t as remembered as snake eater and other mgs songs?
people liked snake more and beacuse this game has raiden as main character people didnt like it
And snake eater was the introduction song for MGS3
Beautiful…perfect during a break up
My favorite song
Everyone who thinks MGS 2 IS the best from the franchise please leave a like.
Do you know what day it is today?
raiden forgor
This opening was one of the first things I tried to play on a piano.
I absolutely sucked.
Love the series and and this song, every so often i tell a friend the line of "the best things in life are free"
This somg helps me to chill then my depression kinda hits
“The memories you have and the role you were assigned are burdens you have to
carry. It doesn't matter if they were real or not. That's never the point.
There's no such thing in the world as absolute reality. Most of what they call
real is actually fiction. What you think you see is only as real as your brain
tells you it is.”
“What am I supposed to believe in? What am I going to leave behind when
I'm through?”
“We can tell other people about -- having faith. What we had faith in. What we
found important enough to fight for. It's not whether you were right or wrong,
but how much faith you were willing to have, that decides the future. The
Patriots are a kind of ongoing fiction too, come to think of it...
Listen, don't obsess over words so much. Find the meaning behind the words,
then decide. You can find your own name. And your own future...
Life isn't just about passing on your genes. We can leave behind much more
than just DNA. Through speech, music, literature and movies... what we've seen,
heard, felt ...anger, joy and sorrow... these are the things I will pass on.
That's what I live for. We need to pass the torch, and let our children read
our messy and sad history by its light. We have all the magic of the digital
age to do that with. The human race will probably come to an end some time,
and new species may rule over this planet. Earth may not be forever, but we
still have the responsibility to leave what traces of life we can. Building
the future and keeping the past alive are one and the same thing.
We've inherited freedom from all those who've fought for it. We all
have the freedom to spread the word. Even me.”
yes, it fills my heart, THEN I REMEMBER THE GAME AND GET MORE DEPRESSION
One of the few times I’ve ever cried to videogame music was listening to this for the first time
just finished this game for first time, My brother had it on ps2, I have to say that bosses were easier for me than avoiding being detected by guards 😅😅😅, but finally I played them all (except Portable ops, metal gear, metal gear 2 solid snake and of course that piece of shit called metal gear survive)
I played portable ops but didnt finished it, it was boring for me, but I finished Peace Walker on psp bc its suppost to be played there 😏
Now I know! Today is the day I met you!!!!
thats it!
I love her.
Thank you Kojima, for making playable movies with amazing soundtrack for the pplz⚡❤️🔥💪☯️♾️
I love the rest of the games, but if the series ended here it still would've been perfect
no there was a bit left remember liquid getting in ray and getting away?
that was left
@@boredsailor4011Yeah and the patriots ai were still there
Does anyone have the art used in this video? It's so good
Its Yoji Shinkawa's art thats in the concept artbooks for the games. It should be in the MGS2 Artbook or the HD edition promo art.
Just screen shot on full screen
best ending theme. love mgs3 to death, but this track overrules everything.
Imagine never hearing this song and waking up at 3:30 am to find it on your recommendation vids. Good day it seems
Me as a 12yr old kid beating mgs2 for the 1st time not knowing wtf I just experienced, then went back 4 years later, PS3 is out by this point, but not the HD collection, beat it again and it was THE most epic journey...would then aquire mgs33 and 4, then later aquire mgs1...only to loose them except for 1 (4 was stolen from me, by thr patriots,) and buy the hd collection
It's pain, I feel dark in the night.
The days I remember, the times I sent.
Fogs on the evenings floor. ✨
If you're still, out there. In the this sea of land.
Why can't, we meet, some time.
If there's, a day, when we meet to sender.
Happy ever, isn't for me, it's a doom I'm running, after.
2:43 *THE METAL GEAR, THE METAL GEAR IS REAL!*
I lost an opportunity. Finished the game for the first time at May 1st (literally 4 days ago, best game I've ever played, onto 3 now w/ high expectations)
Raiden straight up looks like link here
when raiden died in mgs4, and remember how he met Rosemarie, it broke my heart in two :(
But he doesn't died...
@@arsgaz I know that, in chapter 5 he comes to stay with snake
@@arsgaz tbh it probably would have had a much greater impact if he died. but then we wouldn't have Metal Gear Rising
@@MrDoYouKnowMe2211 yeah but then they would've had to give us the prequel story that game was supposed supposed be about
This is for your ears only.
It´s today
April 30th...
I want this to be my funeral song someday...
POV: You're Sonic and you have a family with Amy after an incident at work.
I love songs like this how it has that classic jazz same with Don’t Be Afraid from Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater
This theme really has a different feel compared to the others, especially the one that came before it.
definitely preferred raiden in this game over the edgelord thing that came after
He isn't an edgelord to a fully degree but yeah, this Raiden is also my favorite one and way too hated.
*"SAM..IS...DEAD..."*
fucking finally
no offspring
Jack do you know what today is?
Of course... I remember now. Today is the day I met you.
Why is it so difficult to say goodbye to yesterday?..
Behold the first ones to be fiddled! -MGS2
Who? - Raiden
You. -MGS2
Me? - Raiden
And the player controlling you. -MGS2
WHAT - player and Raiden
MGS2 is canonical ending in my eyes, since MGS2 was a project Kojima actually put passion into making. MGS4 is a fan service disaster game, especially the patriots members being the MGS3 crew thing. MGS2 is a perfect ending, we can make our own conclusion of what happened after the big shell incident and Arsenal.
Completely agree MGS2 is a much better ending .
Amazing
I feel like the controls for MGS2 are better than MGS3 even though they are almost identical.
Is that weird?
Nah I think it's the camera angle
If you're playing the og MGS3 and not subsistence
MGS2 runs at a higher framerate so that could make it feel smoother?
@@bigcade554 That is not something I was aware of.
Mgs3 has to fit in alot more mechanics so it could feel messy
Do you remember what day it is?
Do you know what it is today?
Sonic PFP.
Is it just me or does this song will perfectly fit in a fallout or bioshock game?
not fallout. It's not retro enough
