Metal Gear Solid 2
From what I understand, it's pretty obvious Kojima wasn't allowed to make the game he wanted with Sons of Liberty due to pressure from Konami and then because of 9/11. Kojima apparently won an inner power struggle after fans hated Sons of Liberty, because Snake Eater covers the same themes but much better done. The stealth is a little more difficult in this one which holds it back, but that might just be a skill issue for me.
