MGS2 has set what we must call the future of gaming, the game contains 'State Of The Art' gameplay with a blend of next generation graphics and out of this world sounds.
When the game is released game designers will find it hard to keep up with the demands from us as the game will be such a blockbuster title that will make us as gamers want more out of gaming in the future. At the moment i only own a demo of the game, but the demo alone has blone me away with the stylish and highly entertaining introduction that no game to date has used.
When we think of a video-game we think of Mario or collecting stars to save the princess from the tower, but in fact its not, it is a world of sinister organisations that we as gamers get to fight and bring to justice! MGS2 has maxed the way we can interact with video-games, we can now shoot fire extinguishers and magazines to startle our enemies or we can hide in lockers whilst our hands rumble due to the heart beat setting off the rumble functions on the latest in gaming technology.
If we take a look back at how far gaming has come in the last 10 years we won't be able to beleive that we once controlled a 2-D plain looking character whilst collecting all the stars on the screen. Gaming has changed but not any one game has changed gaming up until now.
MGS2 will be the first ground-breaking title that will change the way we game in the future, we will want more and more out of gaming and our demands will have to be met or companies will not sell their merchandise. GTA3 was the first real game to bring the effects of the weather and natural day to night changes, but MGS2 has taken it a step further again, if we look up rain drops fall on our cameras or if we walk on dry surfaces our foot prints are left so that we can be trased by our enemies. Games in the future will have to match the high level of design that has gone into such games as, GTA3, MGS2, DEVIL MAY CRY, MAX PAYNE, PRO EVOLUTION SOCCER.
Designers are running out of ideas and titles are being rushed instead of time being spent on hem to make the game a worthy purchase and a good adddition to our ever growing gaming collections. Cut-Scenes have never looked so good, long gone are the little 2 minute introductions and the little cut-scenes, we now have movie sequences that help to build the story.
We as gamers can control the way that we will game in the future, people know the styles of games we like and the way we like to game and the designers are finally starting to listen to what we demand to be put into a next generation game. After the release of MGS2 the future of gaming will change, it is an exciting move into the future but what might we be doing on games in another 10 years time? It is hard to imagine that we will once game as the lead player and control our actions by the way we move and think, bring on the gaming future.
I am not saying that MGS2 is the only game to change the way that we will game but it will have the most effect.

MGS 2 is undoubtedly a benchmark in the gaming history but as many of you know it has not been getting the reviews it was hoping to get. I am not sayign that the game is bad, but I just dont think that it is THAT brilliant, THAT unbeatable etc. I think of it as a great title which will be a PS2 classic, but dont mind me say that, but Id prefer Medal of Honor ALlied Assault over MGS2 any day.....
Right, now it's paragraphed, I'll reply.
Nice post. MGS2 really has set a new gaming era. Some of your points aren't fully correct, but overall it is a good post.
