It is impossible for anyone, even the genetically enhanced Snake to jump onto a missle, or survive a missle blast. Ridiculous. They were also too long.
Well, for one thing, it is a game so of course it's expected they would make the main character or whoever do impossible things...as Il said, the game is supposed to be flashy. Of course, I don't completely disagree with you...the cut scenes were good, but were a bit overdone.

Why? I think what they did with the rooms or weaponry was just fine. The only problem is that the AI was far too smart in this game. Granted MGS was easy, but the AI became a real problem in tiny rooms.
Yeah, I also didn't mind this. I didn't find it a big problem getting away from the enemies...I usually just hide in a dark corner or something or hide in the cardboard box and they usually never find me.

But then you always think that every MGS game, on any system is a Godsend.
That's a bit harsh. Maybe Makg just really like the MGS series...some people are just so in love about certain things that regardless of flaws or problems, they still find it the best thing ever. And then, there are some people who notice the flaws and actually give it an accurate rating through it. It's just up to the person...but it's your opinion after all.

Oh and BTW, has anyone else noticed this: How many times did you actually use the new hanging feature. I can honestly say, I have never once hung on a ledge in the entire game. Another stupid/useless addition.
Well, I used it a few times, but I really didn't use it all that much. But it's not really a stupid/useless feature...there are some people who've played MGS2 and hung off the ledges and if they play "Twin Snakes", they might be looking to use this ability as well. And since every ability from MGS2 is put into "Twin Snakes", why not just add the hanging ledge feature?
