20 years ago today, what might just be the most prophetic and thematically important video game of all time was released. Happy 20th anniversary to Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. I got into the Metal Gear games for the very first time this year, and with both the series and our world being the way they are currently, I don't think there's ever been a better time to experience them, especially this game in particular. I'm glad that more people nowadays can recognise it for the thought-provoking masterpiece that it is. Thank you, Hideo Kojima, for this absolute work of art. "Life isn’t just about passing on your genes. We can leave behind much more than just DNA. Through speech, music, literature and movies... what we’ve seen, heard, felt... anger, joy and sorrow... these are the things I will pass on. That’s what I live for. We need to pass the torch, and let our children read our messy and sad history by its light. We have all the magic of the digital age to do that with. The human race will probably come to an end some time, and new species may rule over this planet. Earth may not be forever, but we still have the responsibility to leave what traces of life we can. Building the future and keeping the past alive are one and the same thing." - Solid Snake / David Sears, 2009 (2001)

Snakes speech to raiden is so relatable to me metal gear solid has gotten me through very bad times in my life currently going through a break up it’s hard for me I really loved her but she treated me badly metal gear solid will forever be in my heart

What a way to cap off what was supposed to be the end of the series. Rest In Peace Carla White.

This is without a doubt the best song to fit the epic ending of such an awesome life changing game. All in this game was outstanding and unrepeatable. Love how a game could mark you for life like this one .

Metal Gear Solid 2 is the greatest video game ever made. I say that without exaggeration or hesitation. MGS2 is the only game, to this day, that moves your soul and leaves you speechless. The gameplay was perfect, the music immersed you into the shoes of Raiden, and the narrative was poignantly meta, where it made you question why you played the game. Other games may want to keep you hooked and want you to buy another entry to expand some fictional lore, but not this one. Through this format, Kojima was giving a brilliant commentary on the nature of video games and how to better create a legacy outside of it. As in, "We spend so much time living the fictional lives of others. What about us?" And at the end of it all, the game itself, through Solid Snake, directly tells you to find something to live for and pass your dreams to the next generation. That's not a video game. That's the human spirit made manifest. No other game could hope to hold a candle to this 22 year old Magnum Opus.

Thank you for this beautiful comment,"@S3xOffender".

I started with metal gear solid 2, when I was maybe 13 or 14... by the time I was 16, I had gotten in deep in metal gear solid 3. I was addicted. To the game, the pain, the music, and even the realism in my mind. When I was 19, I tried to play Metal Gear solid 4 and I couldn't hack it in any way... Then, I turned 24 and played metal gear solid 4 again. I learned something that day... I was too young, too immature, and just not good enough at gaming to even make it anywhere in Metal Gear solid 4. I finally beat the game, through and through.. but it finally did it. A game to stand above all else in my eyes. A game to entice the mind, the heart, and even speak to the soul. I never thought it possible in any way, but I learned that sometimes you love what you hate, not because you hate it... but because you don't understand. Now that I think I do, I look for an understanding in everything, that I may not already know. Never give up. And remember; The fight may be harder, but watching others try and fail is harder.
