Considering you call pretty much every major title for AMAZING, I have a hard time taking your opinions seriously.:p
 
GameSpot gave Halo 3 a score of 9.5, what's your point?:p
 
I dont like gamespot since they went whit the .5 only thing in the score
 
I'll be buying a PS3 shortly, the gameplay vids on youtube have given me a hard-on for this game

Does Ocelot ever regain control of his body? I like him as a villain more than I do Liquid.

I've heard that they sort of merged into one person: Liquid Ocelot (Should have been Revolver Snake :p) but I've not actually played the game.
 
I've just got to act 5 and I am absolutely loving this game!!!!! :D

I squaled like a school girl in act 4 when

you were able to play mgs 1 for a couple of minutes and when you control rex!!! :O
 
Can somebody tell me why did the devs have to be douchebags and make Johnny comic relief again? The gag got old years ago.
 
just completed it. Man oh man.






Awesome. For real this time.
 
BTW I was wondering is it just me or is it alot harder to be stealthy this time round? It's obvious they are definitely trying to emphasise more on the combat with the huge increase in number of weapons and the inclusion of drebin. In the previous games i could complete them with no alerts with relative ease (except the 3rd one that camera caused all sorts of problems) now it seems much harder. o_O
 
I almost finished watching all cutscenes on Youtube. Except for stupid egg cooking it's amazing and truly epic. Activation of the system in our capital city is definitely best MGS moment in my book.

Yup i do that...keep thinking that.

ANYWAY I'm not going to let anyone get in the way of my tears right now. Such a powerful experience. 11/10 Best Franchise of all time as of right now. Best franchise story!!!

Man I'm still trying to let it all sink in.


and.....

most of all.....


its over ;(
 
I just finished and I repeat everything asuka said!!! :O

11/10 best


ending


ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am not ashamed to say that I cried at that ending ;(
 
The story makes sense, but objectively, damn, this is worse than a Brazilian soap opera.

Urgh.

Presentation is fine, but Kojima apparently utterly fails at delivering quality storytelling. I mean, come on, why is there no sense of urgency in the cutscenes?

"We need to get out of here fast, but allow me to muse for five minutes on the nature of modern warfare and its implications, son. Disregard that Gekkos are going to arrive by the time I finish, I REALLY NEED TO DO SOME PLOT EXPOSITION" --EVA

"I need to make it quick, so let me chatter into the camera for five straight minutes about things borderline related to what I'm going to say." --Naomi
 
OMFG Mikael how dare you diss MGS in a MGS thread, you son of a bitch!!
 
Yeah i know they do that. But who cares. It's awesome.
 
OMFG, just started the 5th act...
Couldnt help but jizz all over my PS3 when i realized i'd be able to control REX. Aaargh i love Kojima. <3
....best game ever.

And how did the controls feel. In most games robots feel clunky. I remember
in riddick the mech controls was pretty shitty though it was still fun. Now
how was rex, arcady or more realistic, you know where your view go's up abd
down as wou walk and you can't turn on a whim.
 
If you're gonna reply to spoilers please put it in spoilers too, seriously..
 
Screenshots of snake sitting in it have been shown on pretty much every gaming site and I think it was even in the trailers.

Not really, doesn't seem any harder to me. I'm on my second play through trying to get the bandana and stealth and it hasn't been hard so far, though I'm limited to just using the tranquilizer pistol and sniper rifle, shotgun, stun/smoke grenades and GL.
 
Just finished watching the cutscenes, the story is good, real good, although Kojima gets lost a bit.

I mean, BIG BOSS reconstructed from spare parts from Liquid and Solidus? I can understand that, but wouldn't they be, you know, stiff? And wouldn't a lot more be missing from Liquid's body than just his right arm, as we are told in MGS2?

Still good though.

I also arrived at the conclusion that MGS is more of a movie with interactive segments rather than a game with overly long cutscenes.

Still, they could've cut down the exposition.

Totally. An excellently flawed, epic gamers game/movie. I've been glued to the screen all weekend and, due to a combination of more melodrama, twists and angst than my brain is comfortable with, and some of the most downright amazing moments in gaming, feel absolutely drained. Say what you like about MGS, but **** me it's epic and awesome, and MGS4 is the most epic and awesome of the lot.

Buy me a PS3 and a copy of MGS4 and I will say whatever you like!
 
It'd almost be worth it to read your posts taking apart the story :)

Kojima really does deserve a medal. The story, charatcers and their relationships are ridiculous, but i'm hanging on every damn word. It's like an awesome soap opera for people who like cool shit.

The boss fights have been particularly good this time around.

Oh well it must just be me although admittedly i was doing the game on normal difficulty whereas I usually like to do mgs on easy :pBut I still don't see how some acts can be done stealthy like the last one o_O
 
Try leaving Playboys on sentry routes, throwing empty clips to draw attention away from you, tapping on walls to cause distractions, and have your box/barrel nice and handy. Sleeping gas mine can also be very useful.
