Some people have been bemoaning the fact that since Snake starts out with the stealth suit in this game it must be based on the &#8220;bad&#8221; ending of MGS.  [Warning: Spoilers for MGS]  To them I say:  Meryl was a whiny useless character, the typical heroine of an action movie.  She went into the situation with no experience and no concept of reality.  She got in Snake&#8217;s way half the time and impeded him doing his job.  She DESERVED to die.   If she couldn&#8217;t get herself out of there, then she had no business being in there in the first place and no business expecting Snake to save her ass.  So, frankly, I think it was the good ending. <\/p>\n<p>And now, I get to leave work!  T-07:00 until the HP movie.  I may sacrifice a pair of my contect lenses to it.<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear:both; padding-bottom: 0.25em;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MGS2 shipped today!
