Agreed with these.

About Rose: I read Kojima actually had a really psychedelic plot in mind for her. She was supposed to be on the oil rig, and Raiden would chase after her across the separate platforms (serving as a motivation for Raiden to deal with the threat), but he would never find her. This would make both Raiden and the player question whether she was real or just another AI made for puppeteering the fellow. Great scheme IMO, but the team veto'd the idea and instead we run around with a squirt gun freezing bombs.

Zombies suck regardless of medium.

As for the pansy part: Dark Souls has shown me the path as it has done for many, many others and I'm glad it gets a lot of love on these forums.
