This is a great game in all, but the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was because of its plot. It's plot twisted and turned (and I admit after beating it more than once I still don't understand the plot) and you might find yourself watching a lot of cinemas (at the end there has to be alteast 15 minutes worth of cinemas!!) But in all its still a great game with a high degree of action and stealth and plently of levels to roam through. I wish you would have been able to play as Snake through the Plant rather than Raiden, but hey, itsn't that was Substance is for?I suggest rent because some fans of MGS1 might not appreciate all the cinemas, but it is still and overall good game. Fans, buy. Never planed MGS before? Rent.
