I really am peeved about how MGS is behind MGS2. :D

After owning the game for around 3 years now and completing it over 5, I now want to play through it again. Dunno why, but my mate better give it back tomorrow or there'll be digs. {:)

Characters: Got them all quickly

Levels: Most of these are through multi-player, which is one thing I love about the game.

Trophies and higher scores: Things I'm just not interested in coming back to. But when I'm bored this is what I try.

I did say I loved the game, stop giving me a hard time!

Hmm, maybe I should have rephrased what I meant.

What I mean is the replayability level is too low, because once you've completed the modes with the characters on the easy or normal modes, there isn't much that brings you back to do it on Hard or Very Hard.

Are you clinically insane?

This game will last you forever, the single player takes absoloutly ages to complete and the multiplayer will last for ever.

Nope, 'tis the smiley face of all smiley faces. Created by myself and pb, and led onto my fantastic catch-phrase, which also contributed to the widely used phrased "POP to the TOP."

And I hate the name 'hamburger'. How is it a hamburger, when there's no bloody ham in it?
