here's a photo of a Toronto cop brandishing a semiautomatic weapon in the middle of the afternoon to redirect traffic during a protest last week. I counted at least three others with these guns. TPS just announced that we'll be seeing a lot more of this going forward: www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/arti...

MGS2 and other games from earlier generations should be part of game art education and learning and not only about only real time and the latest tech. If you can make a hallway interesting with just an electrical box and a handful of pipes and let colour and light work for you then you get it.
