This looks pretty cool. A nation wide MGS: PO tournament. I regret to admit that that is one of only two MGS games I haven't played along with Twin Snakes. It looks very good and it does actually tie into the storyline of it's PS2 counterparts. I'll definately have to try it out ASAP. Maybe I'll even buy a PSP before the summer so I can have it while I'm sailing. I'm sure that I'll need something like a PSP or possibly even my PS2 to unwind after a long day of handling lines and standing bridge watches. I really can't wait for MGS4, it's gonna blow my world. Hideo Kojima is the man. I can still remember the rst time I played MGS. The old days of Shadow Moses when the characters didn't have eyes but simply dark lines where they should have been. Phrases like "what was that noise" still echo far away in my dreams at night. MGS has definately come a long way as far as AI and graphics, but it's always been the greatest storyline of any game that I know of. I guess the only bad thing about Kojima's masterpiece is that some day it has to end. Snake has to die and Metal Gear has to be stopped once and for all. Until then, I'll just keep enjoying the genius of Konami.
