Ah yes, Aztec! My favourite educational game aside from Egypt II: The Heliopolis Prophecy.
A good idea would be to add the non-NA title to the entry's title or description, as most people outside of North America have no idea that the game was called "The Sacred Amulet" there. Its original title is "Aztec: The Curse in the Heart of the City of Gold" (aka "Aztec: Malédiction au cœur de la cité d'or").

Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of LibertyMetal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty is the sequel to the espionage action game Metal Gear Solid. Much of the gameplay remains the same, as the game's protagonist has to sneak past guards, outsmart them using various gadgets and defeat the tricky boss enemies. The game expanded its predecessor's cover mechanic, with Solid Snake or Raiden able to take cover behind walls or objects and pop out to shoot at enemies, while the improved enemy AI allowed enemies to also take cover from the player.
