    Phantom Pain AND Ground Zeroes are Metal Gear Solid 5

    Metal Gear is essentially an anti-war/anti-nuke video game series made by a hippie with a chunk of the series having some anti-Americanism. I'm fairly certain anything that made the series' storyline good left with Tomokazu Fukushima, who co-wrote the first 3 games, as well as Ghost Babel, and...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    Tried playing Dragon Age: Origins recently, and I swear I couldn't be bothered to spend more than 10 minutes playing. I played it a few times when it came out, and thought it was decent enough. Bland plot, and as much I can appreciate their attempt to gray out their C&C, it all still felt...

    What Josh Sawyer wants from Fallout 4

    I don't see what replacing Slovakia with Stalingrad does to change your argument. You have to remember that these are video games, as in fiction; not every post-apocalyptic game has to follow the same approach that Fallout does. Keep in mind that my question, which was meant to be a bit...

    What Josh Sawyer wants from Fallout 4

    You seem to misunderstand what Josh meant by saying certain players want to be tourists. It's a metaphor for escapism without the game being overly punishing and difficult, not necessarily that it has to have a super friendly society and story. That's why your Slovakia argument was irrelevant.

    That was aimed towards your comment about post-apocalyptic games in general.

    What Josh Sawyer wants from Fallout 4

    And I agree, as far as Fallout goes. Sawyer is merely point out what some people want out of the games. You were disagreeing with his whole statement as if it pertained particularly to you, or to how the games should be. That's not the case. It's not about expectations, it's about escapism, and...

    What Josh Sawyer wants from Fallout 4

    I don't know how you can disagree with that. The notion that some people are just looking for a good time, to enjoy a game without many, if any, difficulties is true. I've met people who play things on the easiest difficulty because they don't want "stress" over a game. The type of people who...

    What is your favourite Boss Fight?

    Tough pick between Senator Armstrong in Metal Gear Rising, SA-X in Metroid: Fusion, and Artorias from Dark Souls' DLC. I know the popular pick for Rising is Monsoon, but I thought Armstrong was a challenging, and satisfying final boss to beat once you got the hang of things. It ramps up the...

    Any excitement left for Star Wars?

    Were I still into Star Wars, I might've been looking forward to it to some degree. The script is one thing, but the action could be entertaining. At this point I'm not even paying attention to what's going on. Might watch it 5 years from its theatrical release like I did with the 2009 Star Trek...

    Help topic: Identifying books/comic books/movies/anything

    I didn't. Afraid I can't help you since I'm unfamiliar with third party controllers, but I wanted to confirm that since it seemed obvious.

    Help topic: Identifying books/comic books/movies/anything

    Are you sure it isn't the NES Advantage? You say it is likely to be third-party, and rare so I'm inclined to not entertain that notion, but I don't know any other turbo controller that fits the description.

    Good PSP Games?

    Metal Gear AC!D 2 Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth I know you said you already have MGS games, but I'm assuming that doesn't include any of the AC!D games. AC!D 1 is definitely completely optional as the sequel isn't that...

    Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes Huge Disappointment

    Uh-huh... Well, then I must've greatly misinterpreted these lines then. Bolded parts for emphasis, obviously. But if I did misinterpret these, then I apologize.

    Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes Huge Disappointment

    I worded that poorly. Solidus has Akio Otsuka as his VA in MGS2, and we all know he's a perfect clone of Big Boss. Then in MGS4 we have Big Boss being old and all. So it stands to reason that Big Boss should've been voiced by Akio in MGS4 as well (just like Solidus and Snake was). I was...

    Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes Huge Disappointment

    Not quite. You could justify the voice if he was an exactly clone, but he's not. And regardless of what the Japanese version does, it isn't entirely out of the question for Solidus' voice to be different (or any else's for that matter) since your environment and other factors can affect what...

    Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes Huge Disappointment

    That's what they say, but every other character has retained the same voice actor. Don't get me wrong, I have no issues whatsoever with Hayter being replaced. His voice got so ridiculous to the point where it's almost like he's doing a parody of himself. Not an exact clone, and even then...

    Th4if no more.

    How exactly am I judging it? Did I make blatant statements about the game? I said it looked alright as the stealth seems to function pretty well and it seems to keep in line with the previous games, at least, to some degree. After watching TotalBiscuit's video, it looks better than I...

    Th4if no more.

    I saw a livestream of it for about 1 minute before I closed the tab. It looked alright, but I didn't see enough to get a good impression of it. Doesn't surprise me if people think it's shit, tho.
