If you have staticy/glitchy sound in MGS2S for the PC:
1. Install the latest patch. (As above!)
2. Go to "Sound" in Control Panel.
3. Click the "Advanced" button in the "Speaker settings" box.
4. Click the "Performance" tab.
5. Lower your "Hardware acceleration" slider by one notch.
6. Try the game and it should sound fine now!
7. If you still have problems, try lowering it more.

The game was very cool. Raiden, I thought, was just a pretty boy, but as I played as him, it seemed I pegged him a bit wrong. The problem is that there is too many cut scenes.
"Raiden, stop it!
"Raiden, stay cool!
"Raiden, call back
"I'm PREGNANT!!!"
IT DRIVES ME NUTS!

The game itself is very good, but the controls are horrible unlesss oyu have a controller that's like a PS2 Controller or a PS2 controller with an adaptoid.

Pros:
Good story line. Extra features will keep you busy for a long time.

Cons:
Keyboard controls are useless. takes up 7.9 GB (7.9!!! GB!) luckily, it can be installed for just for 3.6 or so GB.

Overall, I give it 4 stars.

Quick and fast

I have tried installing this game on 3 different machines with 3 different graphical setups. No luck at all because im only C-in black. I played the old ps1 game for day's on end and if it's anything like that it will be awesome....But i guess i will never know...........

I absolutely love this game. I got it on the XBOX the day it was released. (didn't have a PS2) The PC version is just as good, if not better. The game play is great, especially if you have a Gamepad. I used my 360 controller, because the keyboard controls are kind of wonky. The graphics are still great. No real-time lighting, but the textures are crisper and cleaner than their console counterparts. The sound is well done, with a fantastic soundtrack and crisp effects. For the price, this is a must own for every Metal Gear fan. There are dozens of hours of gaming goodness to be had here.

Just what I ordered!

Just what I ordered! I had trouble when I first started the game because the character in the first cut scene was a white silhouette. I adjusted some video settings and everything worked out fine.

Classic Gameplay

I originally played MGS on the PS1 when it first came out and was impressed by the massive cut scenes, great plot and intuitive (to me at least) controls. Feeling a bit nostalgic, I decided to get MGS2 for my PC. I wasn't disappointed. It was great to return to MGS and I found I enjoyed this version of the game as much as the first. While the cut scenes and graphics don't stack up against more modern games, such as Splinter Cell 4, I still found myself thoroughly absorbed in the gameplay.

Good effort Konami!
