Story:Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake is an action-adventure stealth video game created and published by Konami for the MSX2 computer platform. Acting as a direct continuation of the MSX2 version of the original Metal Gear, it was written and designed by the series' creator, Hideo Kojima. Kojima's inspiration for this game arose as a response to the development of Snake's Revenge, a separate sequel being produced simultaneously for the NES, intended primarily for the North American and European markets.Show more

We already got Metal Gear 1 on GOG. Would be amazing to have this masterpiece alongside with it so it can complete the MSX collection. Would be a shame if this masterpiece is left out. This is truely where Metal Gear found its niche and identity. It all begins here.
Played through the mainline metal gears a while back, and must say, this one still stick out the most. There is just so much I like about this game and most of what's in this game was remade in the newer ones. This is the OG. Big boss is great in this one! This is a GOG for sure!

I originally played this through Metal Gear Solid HD Collection. Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake was the best among the classic style Metal Gear games. If you thought the franchise gotten great with Metal Gear Solid. You are wrong it started with this one. Metal Gear 2 simply improves over everything from the original. What's crazy is how fast Hideo Kojima went to work making this. Directly following a train ride to work. On the same train was a member of Snake's Revenge team. Kojima delivered the true sequel to the original Metal Gear. You may not get voice overs like most of them. The texts are very well written for their time. The audio as a whole among my favorites in the franchise. Yes this can be a difficult stealth game at times. You also get to experience a very great game making all the times you failed worth it. You get some amazing boss fights especially late into the game. Some great surprises if you can find em. This Metal Gear game was truly ahead of it's time. It's mind blowing it's this damn great!!! I do think Metal Gear 2 could sell well here. Especially Metal Gear fans that never gotten to play this before. They would deeply enjoy playing it.

Banjo-Tooie
Banjo-TooieColossal, immense, and gigantic; beautiful, gorgeous, and grandiose -- these are the words one thinks of when describing Rare's follow-up adventure to Banjo-Kazooie. Keeping consistent with the attitude found in this title, Rare has wittily named it Banjo-Tooie. Banjo-Tooie, simply put, is incredibly unimaginable. The worlds are ludicrous in size, the gameplay is polished and deep, and the soundtrack proves to be an immaculate compliment. When it comes to defining platform-based entertainment, Banjo-Tooie is filled with chapter after chapter of standards. Explore eight giant worlds, solve puzzles and help game characters to unearth jiggys, play as Mumbo, a T-Rex, Submarine, Money-Van, Washing Machine, and more, and learn more than 40 new moves on the way.

Banjo-Kazooie
Banjo-KazooieA bear named Banjo needs the help of his loyal friend Kazooie, a red feathered bird, to rescue his sister Tooty from a witch named Gruntilda. Gruntilda has created a machine that transfers one person's level of beauty to another, and plans to use it on Tooty, so she can steal her youthful good looks. Tooty is hidden within Gruntilda's lair, a strange collection of rooms that contain portals to mysterious environments, where new landscapes, new friends, and new foes are encountered. The layer contains magical doors that seal off certain rooms, stopping Banjo and Kazooie from finding Tooty. In order to open these doors, Banjo and Kazooie need to collect mysterious objects called notes, which exist within the mysterious environments. Collecting enough of these notes will give them the power to open the magical doors. In order to open a portal to a new environment, a jigsaw containing a picture of the environment has to be finished. Golden Jigsaw pieces are located within previously visited worlds, and can fit any unfinished jigsaw. The game is often described as being similar to Super Mario 64 and Donkey Kong Country, as well as sharing a few similarities with The Legend of Zelda series.
