The Document of MGS2 script transcript by Leiner Hanvåg
Finally, we get the script.. although Leiner Hanvåg had to do it by hand and copy all information from screen since a text dump was never done.
You can get it at the Junker HQ Dumps page

I downloaded it and read it at ... um... work. Wow. Very interesting to be able to look at an item like this and see the intentions of the writer (stage directions, intent of certain passages and such).
First, thanks Leiner, it's an incredibly readable translation. Even nicely proofread.
A few things I found interesting:
The way that the original script explains that a "hint of Meryl" can be detected in Olga. I certainly didn't look at it that way. The fact that Snake "momentarily mistakes [Olga] for Meryl" surprises me, too. Was this moment in the game?
The way that Rose's first appearance is described is neat too;
Rose replaces(almost a morph effect) the Colonel in the window. (lot of
static). She wears a beige suit with a blouse, revealingly unbuttoned. A pair of
earings and traces of makeup complete the somewhat unreal effect. With the way that he describes Rose's reality(?) at the end this seems to fit right in to the "unknown" distinction.
Just very informative.

Yes, it is a quite interesting read. I do believe that the pause Snake makes after talking with Otacon in the codec and checking the ships information is the scene the text refers to... I did have such a feeling, not as direct as it implies... but since I tend to use the codec a lot to find reactions (somethings snatcher left me, specially in Kojima games) the conversation that Otacon has with snake when you watch her asleep is even more direct.. maybe what I recall feeling from the scene is more derived from that though....

Also, do not forget that Kojima had Kyoko Terase voice Olga, who played Meryl in MGS, and Policenauts.Snatcher wrote:the conversation that Otacon has with snake when you watch her asleep is even more direct.. maybe what I recall feeling from the scene is more derived from that though....

This link doesn't work for me: http://junkerhq.net/files/TheDocument.zip, regardless of whether I right or left click.
Anyone else having problems with it?
