I just hate it that so many parts of the story are completely unexplained, and therefore the acting does not go with what has been happening at all.

This game is SO good at some times, among the best I've played. But other times (usually after about 45 minutes of sitting through another fucking cutscene) it is SO BAD. But you can't just skip the cutscenes, or there would be no point in playing.

What this really does is make me hopeful that someone will copy the gameplay style of the 2nd act. Maybe Splinter Cell will do that or something.

I do plan on playing it a second time through (already went through act 1 twice, after learning how to play the first time). Maybe I'll play the first 2 games before I go through again (or at least the 1st and 3rd, as I hear MGS2 is pretty bad)
