Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (1990 Video Game)
A fantastic sequel to a great series
27 May 2004
"Metal Gear 2:Solid Snake" surpassed it's original successor in almost every way possible: it looked better, it played better, it sounded better, and most of all, it was a true sequel to a great series created by "Hideo Kojima". When I first heard that there was a true sequel to the original "Metal Gear" only released in Japan, I knew I had to play it, because here in America we got a bad sequel. I finally played "Metal Gear 2:Solid Snake" the year it came out in 1990 in Japan, I fell in love with the game, it was fun and exciting and wonderful when I first glazed eyes on it's amazing graphics for an old 8-bit game, it's truly unbelievable and it quickly became my favorite game, and it still is to this day followed by many others I will keep to myself at this time. If you played "Metal Gear Solid" or "Metal Gear Solid 2:Sons of Liberty", you MUST play this awesome amazing sequel only released in Japan, find a rom or visit Ebay and look for it, whatever it takes you need to play this game to see how wonderful it really is, and it also has a very interesting plot. Simply put:"Metal Gear 2:Solid Snake" is a great game not played by many. Find it now! good luck and enjoy this awesome breathtaking sequel masterminded by it's creator, "Hideo Kojima".

A great and very hard sequel which surpasses it's original successor.
3 February 2004
In 1986, Nintendo released the sequel to the smash hit "Super Mario Brothers" in Japan on the Famicom Disk System. It proved to be a very successful sequel in Japan, because the Japanese love challenging games, however, it was not released anywhere else due to it being too difficult for others to enjoy.

The sequel's graphics look the exact same as it's original successor in every way, but with a few nice details which I love so much. The ground is now more rockier, the mushrooms and clouds smile, the red Piranha plants, the gust of winds in some levels, the springs which make you jump even higher, and of course the poisonous mushrooms.

At the start you have two characters you can choose from: Mario(well balanced character but jumps shorter) Luigi(skids and slower to control but jumps higher) *the choice is yours*

I love the extra nice levels (depending on how you finish the game)they added into this game: Finish the game without using warp pipes(access to World 9) Finish the game eight times(access to World A - D)

This sequel blows the original out of the water, it is my favorite Super Mario game, and I truely recommend getting a Famicom Disk System plus this game "Super Mario Brothers 2".

I give this game a 10/10!!! truly a mighty sequel that is hardly known. Give it a try if you love challenging games.
