Throwing Money Down the Drain!

I dunno, I never found any characters in WA2 as endearing as Rudy, Jack, Cecilia & Hanpan. I also thought they handled the Western meets Fantasy motif better. And you aren't forced to use the item dupe glitch, I mean that's like faulting a game for having an infinite lives code.

I thought the story in WA had a more epic feel, and to me, they've just never topped that one. Still a big fan of 2 though, it's a great game. Definitely had a great battle system, they really refined it in that one. And I like the way you allocate "points" for character growth. Never finished 3, don't know why. Got about 30 hours in and just... lost interest, I guess. It was certainly a solid game, don't know why I was never compelled to finish it.

Anyway, agree on all other points. I absolutely love the dungeons, and the tool system is a great idea. The first two games in the series are among the best RPGs on the system, as far as I'm concerned.

MSX is Japan only, and is highly likely to stay that way.
So, who care? Metal Gear 2 was an awesome game, but Metal Gear Solid pretty much recycled it.

NES Metal Gear was crap by comparison, and Snakes Revenge was a bad joke.
