Good article and I totally agree.
I had a similar experience with MGS4, in fact when I learned that you returned to Shadow Moses Island I went out of my way to get a copy and play the game, despite not owning a PS3 of my own! I always loved the Shadow Moses facility setting and to return to it was amazing. To see how it had decayed and to remember all the things I had to do there. Also, simply being able to walk right through the front door was a joy for me! That Otacon and Snake both commented on their past adventures there was just the icing on the cake.
When playing The Longest Journey: Dreamfall, my mind was blown away when I got the chance to return to Venice and see the Borderhouse and the Fringe. I guess I'm easily amused.
