Clean out your hard drive and dust off your gamepad for Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance, which you could easily tell originated on consoles if you didn't know it already. In fact, this game bears the dubious distinction of not just being a port of a console game, but a port of a port of a console game. Originally, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, a critically acclaimed espionage thriller for the PlayStation 2, was released in 2001, and it was then ported to the Xbox last year with a new name and some new features. Now the Xbox version is available for the PC, and it requires a DVD-ROM drive along with a whopping 3.9GB of hard disk space, and that's for the minimum install. Plus, the default keyboard-and-mouse controls are practically unusable, so a gamepad with at least 10 buttons is more or less required. And no one bothered to remove the specific references to the Xbox control scheme from the game or the manual. So it's fair to say that MGS2: Substance could have been ported over a lot more gracefully. Yet this is such an unusual, intriguing, and shocking game that despite the rough translation, it still makes for a one-of-a-kind experience on the PC.
