Metal Gear or Resident Evil

[Jowy]

That depends if he's skipping cutscenes or not. =P

You're going to get a better storyline experience if you watch him play Metal Gear. Except for Sons of Liberty, because that just stops being coherent at the end. Resident Evil's story isn't as captivating, yet the gameplay seems to make up for it.

It's not Kojima's fault you lack lack brain capacity.

You know you got confused at least ONCE. =P

[Mirage]

Maybe, but I got it in the end. It's not fun if you get it all without having to think on it.

[Jowy]

Well, yeah. It makes sense at the end. But when Roy Campbell is going on about needing scissors, you're totally naked, find out your girlfriend is a simulation, and all of the other crap they threw at you during those codec conversations it takes a bit to decipher. =P

[Mirage]

Your girlfriend isn't a simulation though, just on certain frequencies.

[Jowy]

Eh, close enough. You don't get to see her in person until the very end anyway.

Metal Gear Solid seems like it has more cinematics and definitely more of a storyline. The voice actors don't suck in MGS like they do in RE1. Hopefully, it will be more of a pleasant experience.

One, you shoot the heads off Zombies with shotguns.
The other is creeping about and killing quietly.


Watching zombies and the like get shot up is much more enjoyable than a man playing hide-and-seek.

[Mirage]

Eh, close enough. You don't get to see her in person until the very end anyway.

Well, you do talk with the real Rose several times, and Jack had certainly met her prior to the game.

And you don't have to be playing hide and seek. I frequently go nuts with an AK or something similar.

Good lord do MGS. RE1 is bad... and not in a good way... Believe me the nth time you start screaming at him to turn around and cap the zombie coming from behind, but he can't cause the game has the worst controls ever will grate on your nerves.

MGS is like watching a movie, RE is six hours of looking for stupid puzzle pieces and finally getting some bad B movie stortelling in the last 30 minutes of the game.

But I'm bias cause I love my MGS and I absolutely hate Resident Evil. Zombies are not real threats people. We learned this in Castlevania. Zombies are the useless cannon fodder you deal with until you run into something that's actually a real threat:rolleyes2

Besides, Psycho Mantis is a better boss fight than... well let's be honest... anything the first three RE threw at you.

Well I havent seen Resident Evil but i know Metal Gear Solid has smoking in it, (used as a form of tool on occasion) so it might slightly provoke/promote you lighting one up (which really defeats the purpose of the "punishment").
However it delivers the message that smoking slowly drains your life and if you have a cig then smoking it for a few minutes will indeed kill you
But MGS is good fun [atleast you dont have to watch him play all 5 games (or more) in the entire metal gear series]
And if it were me i would enjoy watching as long as the playee edit: player (what was i thinking) had finished the game before and knew what they were doing.

I love both but go with RE if it's the remake version.

I like Metal Gear and all but Resident Evil definately takes it. Not RE4 though, just the first three and CV.

Here, here. I liked RE4, it was great, but the others are so much better and what Resi is supposed to be. Horror/thriller, not action/adventure.

Absolutely Resident Evil, MGS is not the type of game you watch someone play, it would be terribly boring. MGS is a fun game, if you're the one playing. However, in RE, it'll be like watching a horror movie, in its own way, which is better than nothing.

And again; agreed.

I've read it before and my feelings still stand... In fact the only good (and somewhat accurate) zombie game is Dead Rising. Face it, the only thing zombies have going for them is numbers.

And nothing is more pathetic than watching supposedly expert "special forces" agent get handed their ass by a slow moving rotting corpse that can be smacked out of the way if you move fast enough but apparently the cast of RE come from a unit where "special" has a different meaning than what we are led to believe. I bet they took the special small helicopter to get there:rolleyes2

Besides, you seem to keep forgetting that 90% of RE1 is composed of finding random objects to open secret passage ways and requires an insane and tedious level of back tracking. I would say RE is the game that is more interesting to play than watch. At least MGS has good acting and a wonderful story.

Pwnd!

Yeah, I always seem to forget about that little gem

(RE1 Remake = best RE1 yet + RE4 = best RE to watch someone play +
RE4 > MGS in audience fun factor) - my opinion.

Damn I need to go to bed.:mog:
