One little bit of amazement: the game ends with an unexpected love song duet.

Really? How random is that.

The song is "The End" by Hayley Chipman and David J. Franco, for those of you just Googling in.

Those flashbacks are more or less a recap of the entire game, minus the thing about the dark shadow jerk who intends to destroy the world. That bit isn't that important.

Were this Metal Gear Solid 2, the internet would be alive with a chorus of complaints about the love story intruding on the stealth action gameplay.
