Metal Gear Solid 2: Bande Dessinée

Metal Gear Solid 2: Bande Dessinée (French for "Franco-Belgian graphic novel style") is a digitized version of the Metal Gear Solid: Sons of Liberty comic book released as a DVD Video in Japan on June 12, 2008, the same day Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots was released worldwide. This digital version of the Sons of Liberty comic has been edited to features sound effects, animations, and music in a matter similar to Metal Gear Solid: Digital Graphic Novel on the PSP, only with full voice acting added as well, essentially turning the comic into a movie. The Japanese DVD release includes a second disc containing a redone version of the original Digital Graphic Novel with full voice acting. Both movies will be released in a single Blu-ray Video disc as part of The Legacy Collection, added in so the player can get through the story in case they weren't able to actually beat the game. The story is based on the Metal Gear Solid: Sons of Liberty comic which was written by Alex Garner and illustrated by Ashley Wood.
