What a game it is.....amazing.....here are my 15 highlights from the demo. ###May be spoilers!#####
1)Shooting out a guards radio before he has chance to radio for help....then i shot him with the stun gun...he fell over and fell asleep.......i picked him up....dragged him along the ground and lent him against a wall......then i got out the digital camera...took a photo of him.....picked him back up and stuffed him in a locker.
2)Splattering a guared all over anothers shield.
3)Shooting the entire shelf of bottles and watching them drip all over the floor.....its a shame i left wine foot prints else maybe i wouldn't have been caught.
4)Picking up porn mag and leaving it in a guards path.....u should have seen him drooling over it!
5)Holding hostage a guard pointing my gun at his privates so that he would hand over weapons and dog tags.
6)Getting a collection of dog tags (shame the dog tag viewer isn't available on the demo)
7)Shootin a extinguisher and accidently making snake sneeze from the gases...that blew me cover.
8)hiding in a locker to find a FHM poster on the inside. Press R1 and snake makes a squilch sound heh heh.
9)Shooting the shelf in the food room and watching all the veggies splatter every where.
10)Shooting the magazine rack then running oof and hiding then hearing a guared so......"No!, not the mgazines"......he bends over in distraught and i can get passed him.
11)Almost lining my pants when i see a shadow of Vulcan Raven (Dum dum dum!) on the wall but then to my relief realising that it is just a toy on the floor made big by the shadow it produced by a torch.
12)Shooting the Raven toy.....It started up and fired little balls all over the floor (How cool is that)
13)Shooting a guard all over the body with stun darts......MGS's version of Sonic the hedgehog had just been born.
14)Knocking a guard over a balcony onto another guard. Talk about killing 2 birds with 1 stone!
15)Learning that everything can be trashed.....Windows smashed.....bootles shattered.....lockers kicked in(Especially useful if they are locked)......watching a Liquid Crystal Display T.V. bleed as its shot......Destroying a plant (To Mr.Titchmarshes discrace).........knocking a box over and watching a;; the contents fall out!...shooting flour sacks filling the room with flour (It even settles on Snake!)
16)Hiding in a box only to be dicovered.....RED ALERT.....all the guards come running.....radio for more back up is done by one guard......SO.....only one thing to do!....smack him....grab his body.....use it as a shield so the others don't shoot at you....toss his body aside....and peg it from them!
OOPS thats 16 things.....oh well there is so much to do i could have gone on forever.
One thing i must mention though is how could the AI is.....Guards are alerted by the slightst mistake and react to it brilliantly.....they call for help and they even state what part of the playing level they are!
e.g. "Quick....I need backup!....the intruder is in the crews lounge....hurry he's getting away...over......hey you come back......." Message replied to......"All back up teams.....go to the crews lounge...we have a red alert!"
I think it is so cool the way they communicate even saying where abouts they are....also when the are patrolling they nod to each other....kick each other if one is asleep, and the alert team even say to the guared that called them "O.k. we are here...where is he!". Also guards do other stuff like scratching bits of their body (*cough*), smoke, put search goggles on to search in the horizon, and loads more.
The graphics are the best yet on PS2....rain splashes off snake....each guard/character is beautifally detailed with guns and stuff all over their body, the surroundings are detailed up to the eye balls and all can be destroyed with bits flying every where. Dead bodys stay in the surroundings but after a while the others get worried because nothing has been heared from their patrol area for a while so they come and check everything is o.k. if they find the dead body everything goes on red alert but if you manage to hide it then they will just be a little suspicious for a while and then put some one else on guard there.
So if your still wondering what all the fuss is about then why? MGS2 WILL be the best game ever. Pre order it now!
So what are your views on the game. Post 'em here. Nat

And if you leave a locker door that has got a picture in open, then alert the guards and run in to the loker room, they will look at the picture for agas then go out :-)
OK...OK.....i admit i didn't actually find one myself......i just thought that it was a cool new feature so i put it in my list. here is the revised point.
4) Watching the vid of snake drop a porno mag in a guards path and seeing him drool over while snake creeps past.
there....is that better :)

it is a very good demo but i didnt see any porno mags either! just pics of nice looking ladies
Where are the porno mags? I aint seen them in the demo.
Its good isn't it :)
What can I say... You have pretty much listed all of the great points about the MGS2 demo. I even went out and bought the game 'Zone of Enders', just to play on the demo of MGS2 it came with!
People are always telling me that the original is always better than its sequel or prequel, whether it be films or games and how disappointed they are to even look at such sequels, however, I absolutly love the original MGS on the Playstation and I don't expect anything less from MGS 2 after playing the demo. Those people are wrong about sequels being worse than the original, granted that the original is...well..the original, but if it has all those excellent features that you mentioned just in the demo, what great feats of amazement will we be in for when MGS2 is released.
Needless to say MGS on the Playstation is my most favourite game, I must have completed it about 12 times and everytime I play it, it seems like it is for the first time again.
I hope the full version of MGS2 will live up to its expectations, which I have no doubt it will, there is not much else I can say except roll on February 22nd.

How do you do this. I've seen you can pick up books as they show you in the moves list on the demo. But i've never seen a porn mag to pick up.
