Can you people stop giving that guy credit for literally everything that's good and nothing for what's bad? He didn't think of everything, note boards were given to every single person that worked on this game in any capacity for them to write things they could think of that should be in the game. At most he deserves credit for either creating or allowing this initiative. A lot of people worked on this game.

Cardboard box fast travel is definitely one of the cooler things IMO. It isn't explained to you, but the visual clues are all there - each part of the Big Shell conveyor belt has a different box for each location. I think something that may have been missed out, is that when enemies are doing a clearing they are less suspicious if you are wearing a cardboard box that is the same as other boxes in the same area. If you are wearing an out-of-place box that doesn't match the ones in the room, they might shoot at it. That was how I interpreted my experience, at least. Maybe it was just coincidence.
The box transport was a mechanic in MGS1 as well. If you wanted to go all the way back to the Helipad from the Snowfield where you fight Sniper Wolf, you could....not that theres literally any reason to do so as far as I know...
I'm still amazed that this was a mere PS2 game. The level of improvement from the first one was shocking to say the least. The animation, the well fleshed out characters, the beautiful cinematic cutscenes...I could go on an on in praise of this game. Thank you for assembling this for us to watch!
Nuno30318 it depends.. if you have a great or at least a very solid trustful relation regarding the Sexual thing... then *your gf would probably even find it kind of "cute" to do thatwith "her" in mind* . (and yes, I tell you because I said to my (ex now) girlfriend that I prefered a picture of her for "you know" rather than watch other pornstars videos ... and she found it very cute (she kinda liked it) hahaha good times !!!
This level of detail might bankrupt some companies these days though…Though maybe more linear games like these would help save money instead of trying the same thing with all the open world games they make.
@@Maximus20778 I do believe that profit can still be made without the need for scummy micro transactions. As mentioned I think that instead of always doing those massive open worlds we could aim for more linear games like this (as in decent little zones instead of just hallways from beginning to end) so that the work that usually goes into just making the map bigger could go into making smaller zones better and more detail rich. And instead of always going for the most cutting edge photorealistic graphics maybe something more stylized would help with costs and also keep the game from getting too dated looking for longer.
The problem is open world games. ALL developers NEED to just focus on story and who care if the world is 100% open. I prefer a full story experience myself. But open world does have replayability
3:10 - You can also shoot the flour bags, and it will send flour into the air - this can actually be used later where there's infrared lasers to reveal them without having to use the cigar or thermal g.
I'm probably over-reading it, but given that the Colonel is an AI, I always took his "Well, there are certain things a person can and can't do..." as a robotic, like, 'scanning the morality database' type response
@@mywhychromosome but then he told raiden he can sympathize and hints at wanting to see the picture himself. For fun's sake he could be giving that generic response just to ward off Rose.
@Manek Iridius I know rose and Campbell are AI, but look at it this way: at that point in the story, we don't know that yet, and the game doesn't even think to give any hint about it. If there's no hint in serious normal codec calls, the hint sure as heck won't be found in a joke codec call about Raiden taking photos of panties. I don't think the way Campbell speaks in the panty codec call was supposed to hint at him being an AI, but rather that he's speaking awkwardly for comedic effect.
@@kingdomcome3914 She was always an AI. The mind games the game was trying to do at the very end was make you wonder if Rose was even real to begin with. This includes just before the credits.
The actual design document for MGS2 exists online, and I had this exact thought when reading it. One minute you are reading some super well thought out social commentary or brilliant subtle philosophy behind some aspect of the game design, the next you are reading about "Chinaman" the lost member of Dead Cell...he wasn't from China...
man i wished more modern games have these kind of magical things. It shows how much care and passion the developers put into their work. There are only few of them these nowaday such as zelda botw or rdr2
As we get close to the 20th anniversary of this game, I’m still amazed how beautiful the game looks and not only that..the story and it’s relevance even today... amazing
Honestly I think it's a great medium, games now could look more like this cause it cuts the amount of time on visual detail they'll be told to out do the next year, more space for discs so they won't have to make a long loading time (especially for Christmas), more budget could be put towards story, and with modern tech we could easily do better than this but if they don't try to out do themselves... I'm repeating myself but you get the point
this was one of my first PS2 games, so messing around with the environment and finding out all sorts of cool things was just as fun as the main game itself. Most of my replays were trying to find out all sorts of things to shoot and what happened if I did this or that.
Same. My favorite thing to mess around with are the guards in MGS2. Literally could get spotted, follow them, let them say, “Enemy sighted! Requesting backup uni-” punch them last second, and have them rinse and repeat it(they will kick you for annoying them, though). This thing is actually also something a lot of players did back then, and that's why Raikov in MGS3 was known for getting away with “Punching guards”. Played this back in 2008, never regretted it since.
I’ve played this game all the way through probably 40 times and saved at certain spots in the tanker and plant, found soooo many secrets gotten the stealth chips and wigs, but this video is amazing I haven’t seen a lot of these funny secrets!!! 😃😂
SAME. I remember when I was 6 or 7 playing this and I was walking around a ton of spots in the room and looking at the statue from different angles trying to get a follow up call lol.
@@Alex20158 its incredible to me that some people got to experience great games when they were so small. what was it like to play mgs2 as a young child? what did you think of the story? i remember playing gta vice city at 11 y.o. and being blown away by the "WOW ITS LIKE MOVIES!!" story
@@KOTEBANAROT Honestly I had no idea what was going on with the story most of the time. I was just like "Ay that's the villain, let's get 'em." I played a ton of GTA's when I was about that age too. Played San Andreas endlessly over and over. But to this day Metal Gear is my most beloved game series. I don't know if it was because Metal Gear Solid 1 was literally the first video game I ever played when I was 3 years old, or if something else about the series just grabbed my attention game after game. I really hope it can recover from what's been done to it.
@@KOTEBANAROT it was incredible... I was 11 or 12. Mind was blown away... I probably played mgs2 form start to finish a 100 times total lmao. That was... 20 years ago. Damn... Also, the storyline at the time seemed insane. But it's crazy how much kojima predicted the future. I've still got my original copy of the game
48:05 *Johnny on the john:* ''who was she like again? Oh yeah, she's like her. now _that's_ a time I'd like to forget'' *_And the both got married and lived happily ever after._*
The codec call about Rose´s cooking even has effect on MGS 4. Snake is asking the Colonel who is doing the cooking at home (Cononel and Rose) at first he says Rose is cooking then Snake tell him Raiden told him Rose can´t cook
I don't know if anyone's mentioned it already, but @25:44 the A.I. Campbell tells you that the elevator won't move with an enemy on it, which seems like a nod to the fact that, since the current mission is a simulation of what happened in Shadow Moses, the A.I. knows/recognizes that the elevator that Snake used also didn't have an enemy on it, thus forbiding you of carrying an enemy on it.
@@vitablitz Yandre dev more like a guy too lazy to finish his game. a bit of a plug but check out reymour cripps he's a dev too! it's really interesting.
he also says he is on your side during the sniper part. shoot at him and call him and eventually he will say "RAIDEN I AM ON YOUR SIDE!" then like 2 cut scenes later he says he never said that.
The level of interactivity wit the environment was pretty groundbreaking at the time. Mgs2 was the first game I remember playing where you could shoot the magazines off the shelf, fruits and veggies, and bottles etc.
This game is absolutely loaded with content. The HD Collection makes it even better. I wish there was a way to explore some of the other Shell 2 struts you never see.
You could buy a 3d printer and a license to this guy's model of the whole of big shell it's glorious and one day I'm going to make one he even has the insides fully modeled
I always thought the snake tales was wasted potential, Snake's plays a big part behind the scenes in the plant campaign and I thought they did something similar to what separate ways is to re4 campaign. I was so disappointed it was just some missions with large text explaining the context with no codec or cutscenes.
If you adjust the lighting a bit of that part of Raiden on the strut where he falls through the hatch, you could straight up make it look like MGSV. Lighting in that opinion is already that close.
16:35 Can I just say I love this version of discovering Ray. Snake underneath their very feet symbolic of his place as the ultimate stealth operative meant to combat an equally ultimate manmade WMD that towers over him with an army in line. I think it really sums up their relationship in a Kojima way.
The DanD guy I played this game specifically all the time on the Vita. It’s super fun futzing around in vr missions and the story’s pretty great too. I always wanted to know how a multiplayer version of the game would be. The odd early 2000’s gun control and the usefulness of traps and effective cover would be soo fun.
So, back in the day, I played this game obsessively. I looked for every possible easter egg (either online or discovering myself). Yet, I never knew you could "smell" Johnny with the bomb sensor (I did know he's there and you can listen to him). Crazy how you learn things about games decades later.
Actually, that was Iriqois Pliskin who said that. He's on the Marine's and Raiden's side, but unfortunately disappeared after he joined forces with Otacon to repel Solidus Snake.
I remember in my very first playthrough of MGS2 on the Tanker level, I would shoot literally everything in the lounge room. The level of detail for a game that came out twenty years ago is quite insane.
TofuDaTurtle Played it religiously and it was my first Metal Gear since I bought the substance re-release on Xbox. Bought a ps1 for mgs1 couple years later but my bias and childhood condition me to put this above 1 at times. It’s just never gets old
I LOVE that the AI responds to other AIs. Like, it's almost ubiquitous in games that the AI has this collective intelligence that psychically transmits information from AI to AI about the player's location and the location of all other AIs. The fact that an enemy can scare another enemy like that is so fucking awesome and rare in games that it's just marvelous to see it happen here. I love this game. It was so incredibly groundbreaking for its time.
there's a interesting detail that i did one time, if you get knock out (like trying to rool on the stairs) while wearing the enemy's clothes, then a camera see you, the camera will ask for your status report, and if you don't get up, the backup team will come and check you, sure they will just kick you and make your disguise unequip, but it's still a pretty cool thing to try it out sometimes of course, this does not work if lose the balaclava of your outfit (which is funny because raiden never even thinks about just grabbing one from a knocked out/dead enemy)
@@thethethethe135 maybe or maybe it's just because the radio on the terrorists says that someone is wearing out uniform and that they should face check everyone they come across, so maybe raiden didnt pick up a new balaclava because...it would be useless since they would have to check his face anyway
One thing I found that I don't think anyone has mentioned, at the end of the game when Colonel is under the effect of the virus, if you die at that point instead of the usual dramatic "RAIDEEEEN" he calls out a very short and almost happy "Raiden~" like he's trying to get his attention from across the street or something so he can say hi
I think mgs2 is the example of if you got to many toys what fun is there in using some when you can use it all. So thank you kojima and crew for making use of the ps2.
This is why I love the Metal Gear Solid series. This level of attention to detail is missing from a lot of modern games. (Then again... I guess the Metal Gear Solid series is also missing... *sigh*)
You didn't even show that there's different reactions to the guards on Arsenal seeing your unmentionables. Sometimes they're jealous, sometimes they laugh and insult you. It's changes.

I'm still amazed that this was a mere PS2 game. The level of improvement from the first one was shocking to say the least. The animation, the well fleshed out characters, the beautiful cinematic cutscenes...I could go on an on in praise of this game. Thank you for assembling this for us to watch!
Mere PS2 game?

@Ross Skarr lot of diamonds and gems!
Not only a PS2 game, an EARLY PS2 game. Came out only 1 year after the PS2's release. It deserves being the system's 7th best selling game.

I'm pretty sure my gf wouldn't like me jacking of to her pictures, and im pretty sure no woman would tell you to jerk off to a picture of her.
Nuno30318 it depends.. if you have a great or at least a very solid trustful relation regarding the Sexual thing... then *your gf would probably even find it kind of "cute" to do thatwith "her" in mind* . (and yes, I tell you because I said to my (ex now) girlfriend that I prefered a picture of her for "you know" rather than watch other pornstars videos ... and she found it very cute (she kinda liked it) hahaha good times !!!
The nostalgia from this brought up so many good memories as a kid. The gaming industry needs to go back to this style of detail and care for a title.
This level of detail might bankrupt some companies these days though…Though maybe more linear games like these would help save money instead of trying the same thing with all the open world games they make.
@@Shiratto true without microtransactions and dlcs the corporations will kill the devs and shut studios down cuz no profit.
@@Shiratto yeah as a kid I never realized how expensive it is to make games.
@@Maximus20778 I do believe that profit can still be made without the need for scummy micro transactions. As mentioned I think that instead of always doing those massive open worlds we could aim for more linear games like this (as in decent little zones instead of just hallways from beginning to end) so that the work that usually goes into just making the map bigger could go into making smaller zones better and more detail rich.
And instead of always going for the most cutting edge photorealistic graphics maybe something more stylized would help with costs and also keep the game from getting too dated looking for longer.
The problem is open world games. ALL developers NEED to just focus on story and who care if the world is 100% open. I prefer a full story experience myself. But open world does have replayability
3:10 - You can also shoot the flour bags, and it will send flour into the air - this can actually be used later where there's infrared lasers to reveal them without having to use the cigar or thermal g.
For that i always used extinguishers, never even knew about cigars
If you had the camera, the flash could spot the infrared too, as well as block Vamp's paralysis if you timed it.
Taking pictures of a hostage's privates:
"Colonel, was I wrong in what I did?"
I'm probably over-reading it, but given that the Colonel is an AI, I always took his "Well, there are certain things a person can and can't do..." as a robotic, like, 'scanning the morality database' type response
@@mywhychromosome but then he told raiden he can sympathize and hints at wanting to see the picture himself.
For fun's sake he could be giving that generic response just to ward off Rose.
@Manek Iridius I know rose and Campbell are AI, but look at it this way: at that point in the story, we don't know that yet, and the game doesn't even think to give any hint about it. If there's no hint in serious normal codec calls, the hint sure as heck won't be found in a joke codec call about Raiden taking photos of panties. I don't think the way Campbell speaks in the panty codec call was supposed to hint at him being an AI, but rather that he's speaking awkwardly for comedic effect.
@Manek Iridius Rose is real until the pregnancy reveal, then she's subtly replaced by an AI.
@@kingdomcome3914 She was always an AI. The mind games the game was trying to do at the very end was make you wonder if Rose was even real to begin with. This includes just before the credits.

As we get close to the 20th anniversary of this game, I’m still amazed how beautiful the game looks and not only that..the story and it’s relevance even today... amazing
Honestly I think it's a great medium, games now could look more like this cause it cuts the amount of time on visual detail they'll be told to out do the next year, more space for discs so they won't have to make a long loading time (especially for Christmas), more budget could be put towards story, and with modern tech we could easily do better than this but if they don't try to out do themselves...

this was one of my first PS2 games, so messing around with the environment and finding out all sorts of cool things was just as fun as the main game itself. Most of my replays were trying to find out all sorts of things to shoot and what happened if I did this or that.
Same. My favorite thing to mess around with are the guards in MGS2. Literally could get spotted, follow them, let them say, “Enemy sighted! Requesting backup uni-” punch them last second, and have them rinse and repeat it(they will kick you for annoying them, though). This thing is actually also something a lot of players did back then, and that's why Raikov in MGS3 was known for getting away with “Punching guards”. Played this back in 2008, never regretted it since.

Out of all of them, the one I was most shocked about was at 49:45. I didn't even know there was a door there.

@@Alex20158 its incredible to me that some people got to experience great games when they were so small. what was it like to play mgs2 as a young child? what did you think of the story? i remember playing gta vice city at 11 y.o. and being blown away by the "WOW ITS LIKE MOVIES!!" story

But to this day Metal Gear is my most beloved game series. I don't know if it was because Metal Gear Solid 1 was literally the first video game I ever played when I was 3 years old, or if something else about the series just grabbed my attention game after game. I really hope it can recover from what's been done to it.

The codec call about Rose´s cooking even has effect on MGS 4. Snake is asking the Colonel who is doing the cooking at home (Cononel and Rose) at first he says Rose is cooking then Snake tell him Raiden told him Rose can´t cook

I don't know if anyone's mentioned it already, but @25:44 the A.I. Campbell tells you that the elevator won't move with an enemy on it, which seems like a nod to the fact that, since the current mission is a simulation of what happened in Shadow Moses, the A.I. knows/recognizes that the elevator that Snake used also didn't have an enemy on it, thus forbiding you of carrying an enemy on it.

he also says he is on your side during the sniper part. shoot at him and call him and eventually he will say "RAIDEN I AM ON YOUR SIDE!" then like 2 cut scenes later he says he never said that.
The soldiers in boxers will appear in your second run.
The level of interactivity wit the environment was pretty groundbreaking at the time. Mgs2 was the first game I remember playing where you could shoot the magazines off the shelf, fruits and veggies, and bottles etc.
This game had so many easter eggs it took someone 18 years and a hour and a half long video to make this.
And it still doesnt cover it all lol
He didn't find it all, we did.
18 years tho?
This game is absolutely loaded with content. The HD Collection makes it even better. I wish there was a way to explore some of the other Shell 2 struts you never see.
You could buy a 3d printer and a license to this guy's model of the whole of big shell it's glorious and one day I'm going to make one he even has the insides fully modeled
I always thought the snake tales was wasted potential, Snake's plays a big part behind the scenes in the plant campaign and I thought they did something similar to what separate ways is to re4 campaign.
I was so disappointed it was just some missions with large text explaining the context with no codec or cutscenes.

15:29 fucking hilarious "hey we were watching that!"

So, back in the day, I played this game obsessively. I looked for every possible easter egg (either online or discovering myself). Yet, I never knew you could "smell" Johnny with the bomb sensor (I did know he's there and you can listen to him). Crazy how you learn things about games decades later.

there's a interesting detail that i did one time, if you get knock out (like trying to rool on the stairs) while wearing the enemy's clothes, then a camera see you, the camera will ask for your status report, and if you don't get up, the backup team will come and check you, sure they will just kick you and make your disguise unequip, but it's still a pretty cool thing to try it out sometimes
of course, this does not work if lose the balaclava of your outfit (which is funny because raiden never even thinks about just grabbing one from a knocked out/dead enemy)
maybe the balaclavas are also ID tagged ?
@@thethethethe135 maybe
or maybe it's just because the radio on the terrorists says that someone is wearing out uniform and that they should face check everyone they come across, so maybe raiden didnt pick up a new balaclava because...it would be useless since they would have to check his face anyway
