Well, if he can materialize a box out of thin air, why not a barrel? :wink:

yeah that struck me too, i guess it's just one of them magic things that happen sometime.. i love the metal gear though - so cute

[Vinny Testaverde]

did he kill a guy by grabbing his nuts or did I misinterpret what I saw?

(When he pointed the gun at the npc and searched him up near the beginning)

Unfortunately they didn't released MGS3 for PC, so I didn't played it, yet.

And prolly, they wont release MGS4 for PC neither, so I'll prolly buy a PS3

[Rick_D]

seriously though - this game is looking more and more shit by the second. I can't believe they think this stuff is cool, what the hell, it's gay. And that makes all japanese people gay.

I know this generally goes without saying Rick, but I feel it's worth pointing out anyway: not everyone agrees with you!

[Thrik]

I do find those comments somewhat humorous though as the series makes things involving Raiden, the blonde guy, a bit gay-ish on purpose. His grandfather (who looked the same) was depicted as the gay lover of the main villain in MGS3.

And of course, the last part of the MGS4 trailer was intentionally designed to look quite like an anal sex scene.

Kojima always injects some humour into the trailers that doesn't appear in the final game (like the "Grand Theft Auto" part of the old MGS3 trailer), although it goes over the heads of a lot of people.

I've seen lots of people playing and ranting/raving on about MGS but never played any of them.

I don't know why but something never clicked, possibly not wanting to be associated with weird sweaty PS fanboys nerdgasming over it in dark rooms.

the MGS on the PS1 was _amazing_ - literally made me buy a PS1 because of it, with no other games. One of the most fantastic games I have ever played, ever. In the history of everything.

When MGS2 was announced I was psyched; overall the game was utter shit though. Gay characters and bad guys, "Vamp" for example, and the fat bomb guy. Ugh it was all shit except for the boat scene and Snake calling himself Snake Pliskin (if you don't know what that's from I suggest taking a hot bath and cutting your wrists).

MGS3 was.. well it was interesting but you could tell they still hadn't learnt any lessons from MGS2 except that nobody wanted to play as raiden except the people who liked penis in bum.

Some of the MGS4 stuff looks great, but it's drowning in a river of faggy shit, the floor humping, the barrel (wtf.. honestly, rolling, and then throwing up and .. omg I don't even want to think about it), the gay little metal gear robot, the girlie mags (we have the internet, we don't need to buy a game to look at women whoring themselves) - the ball grabbing (you know I never thought to myself whilst playing MGS "hey you know I really need to grab this guys balls").

And setting it in "the middle east" - god that's so fucking uninspired.

tl;dr

SUMMARY-

MGS4 looks shit and gay.

[Skjalg]

Snake Pliskin? I dont get it...

[Thrik]

You're totally entitled to your opinion. I just disagree with the majority of it and think that MGS2 was a pretty great game (largely with regards to gameplay), and MGS3 was even better than both predecessors combined.

I have to wonder if you're just trolling or not, because your criticisms in that post about MGS4 are seriously ridiculous. The "floor humping" is slow proned movement, the "gay little metal gear robot" is a reconnaissance device, the girlie magazines were in the past MGS games and are used as an enemy diversion, and the ball grabbing... okay, the ball grabbing was a bit weird. But the rest of the stuff is excellent from a gameplay perspective.

And it's not just set in the Middle East. It's set across the world, and will take part in Europe and America. Just like with the past games, only a very small part of it is shown in the pre-release media but you're led to believe you're seeing a lot more than you are (although with MGS2 this kind of backfired, making most people think it was Snake all the way through).

If you think it looks faggy, okay. Those of us who loved all of the past games will play it and love it regardless of whether or not you do.

He was in the inspiration for Solid Snake.

Rick: Are you trying to set a new world record in obscenity?

Foul language doesn't make your arguments any stronger, in fact it does exactly the opposite...
