Despite being standalone from the original franchise, it left an amazing aftertaste. Good replayability, winning storytelling, graphics are stellar and the gameplay kicks ass. Stayed true to Metal Gear by all means. Highly informational too.

Came for the memes and music, stayed for the incredibly solid gameplay and storytelling. Reveangeance combines over-the-top, bordering-on-camp edge with great characterisation, thematic interludes, and social commentary. The game manages to tell a compelling story while not taking itself too seriously, creating some of the most iconic characters in gaming.
The game's combat system can be tough to learn, but Reveangeance's initial power-fantasy stages help ease players in. Properly mastering the game's controls is one of the most satisfying learning curves I've encountered in a game. This leads to some of my favourite bosses in all of gaming, with the fight against Jetstreme Sam perhaps being my all-time favourite. Armstrong is also up there - a near-perfect final boss. Add in the game's incredible soundtrack and these combat sequences easily surpass much of what I've seen in the medium.
Overall, an incredible game on all fronts - the mother of all omelettes, indeed.
