This game discourse considers the controversial 2001 release Metal Gear Solid 2. Eagerly anticipated as the sequel to the Solid Snake saga post Shadow Moses - fans and industry professionals alike were shocked by the bait-and-switch reveal of Raiden; an androgynous rookie who replaced our protagonist Snake as the central player-character.

To this day, Metal Gear Solid 2 is divisive - considered a post-modern masterpiece by some - and an outright betrayal by others. In this Metal Gear Solid 2 analysis - I consider why!

In this episode I'll be discussing

- The Raiden Big Shell chapter
- The Solid Snake Tanker chapter
- Solidus Snake as the controversial third twin
- MGS2 Analysis through dystopian fiction analogues
- The Patriots AI as a metaphor for Big Brother
- Whether Metal Gear Solid is anti-Russian or anti-American
- The story of Revolver Ocelot - Shalashaska - ADAM
- Olga Gurlukovich as Cyborg Ninja
- Dead Cell - Vamp Fatman Fortune
- MGS2 easter eggs
