Personally, while MGS1 & 2 are very good games, I do find them extremely over-rated...

I would definitely not say they are blueprints for the ideal video game. At lot of people found the torrent of cut-scenes in MGS2 boring. I myself found them to ruin the flow of the game some times.

There is no doubting the sheer quality and presentation of MGS2 is top notch - but to claim it is gaming perfection and should be imitated is somewhat ludicrous in my opinion.

I don't think there is any one game out there that can be called gaming perfection and used as a blueprint. It's all about taste, and one man's MGS2 is another man's Army Men...
