Just watched the death of Naomi. They bit where they are running towards rex is very sad.

I have a question for you lot. Should Raiden have died in Shadow Moses?
Probably. Him living makes the entire scene at the end pointless.

I feel it is fine as it is. His sacrifice would have been more powerful if he did, but I also like the way the character was 'reborn' and entered Outer Haven to help Snake one final time.

hey this is a mgs2 and 4 spoiler but it is referring to Campbell. this has been bothering me for sometime and thought i would ask. but in mgs2 you see that campbell was an AI however in mgs4 the real Campbell was able to recall the big shell incident and remembers Jack etc etc. so was it the real campbell until later where fake campbell came and was like "whats up?" idk lol.

I just assumed Snake or Otacon or Rosemary told him about the events that took place.

He is never the real Campbell in MGS2, in fact, he looks and sounds like him because that's how we perceive a colonel/commanding officer in a Metal Gear game. In fact, I don't think they ever call him Campbell in the game, just 'colonel'.

I assume that he was told of the events by Solid Snake or someone else who was there.

I'd say the same. In MGS2, you never hear the Colonel being called "Campbell", just Colonel. I'm sure Campbell was informed of the whole incident by someone who witnessed it.

Rose in the beginning refers to campbell as campbell when she is talking about her conditions on working with raiden.

i could be wrong but im pretty sure she refers to him as campbell a few times in the beginning. idk it could be possible for it to be an AI or just something that kojima over looked or whatever.... screw it nanomachines yea that makes sense :p

I just looked up to MGS2 script. The Colonel is never referred to as Campbell in the whole game.

I believe that the AI knew that the virus wasn't going to delete everything, only GW. Plus, they needed to keep the simulation going (S3 plan).

A youtube series I watch "All your History" which goes into the history of video game series, has been doing Metal Gear these past few weeks, they're so far 3 episodes in and it's been a great watch, I would recommend any fans watching it.

Part 1 - Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake

Part 2 - Metal Gear Solid

Part 3 - Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3

Part 3 is about 85% discussing Metal Gear Solid 2, not much was said about 3. I was expecting the regular shit before having seen it, because part 2 ends with "Tune in next time to see Metal Gear go mental" so I was expecting another GT type look on the game, for them to have a minute of the video focused on 2 call it contrived without backing it up then move onto 3. But I was wrong, almost the entire episode focuses on MGS2 and they go into what it set out to accomplish, how Kojima took breaking the 4th wall to a whole new level and I was extremely happy with this episode, major props to whoever wrote that, ofc shouldn't really have to be said but it's always nice with outlooks on MGS2 that isn't unjustified retard hate

Yeah, I'm familiar with that, I've read a few of these crazy in depth looks at MGS2, it's a little too much for me, I'm personally fine with just appreciating the game from my own point of view, I'm sure there's a lot that can be looked at from what was done with it, but, I'm fine without reading these crazy views on the game even if it can be interesting, it's just not something I feel I have to do to appreciate the story

Some stuff is interesting that I've read about in the past, a lot about what the game does in terms of story, playing with your expectations, etc.
