Metal Gear series: Say I'm not the only one

[Outer Heaven]

I don't know what's not amusing about shooting melons, hiding people in lockers, throwing them from large heights, making guards pee themselves, and kicking young women in the face. It's just awesome.

Thats one reason why I still play Metal Gear Solid.

But enough about the MGS series what about the Metal Gear series, the originals!!!???

They totally blow MGS away!

LOL. I haven't played them, but if they were anything like the Gameboy Colour version, they sucked.

Of course they are like Gameboy. But they are fun!

[Reine]

I found the game boring, and the controls crap.

So im with you Maxx.

It's all preference. If you don't 'get' a game, it doesn't mean it sucks. I know several people who don't like the Metroid/Castlevania 2D games. They're great games, but just not their taste.

You're talking about me, aren't you?

Yep. You need help. That's all there is to it.

I agree with everyone else. It's not like it's a bad game, it's just that you don't like it.

I could never get into MGS, the third one just screamed "Hey watch these japanese movies and buy these japanese foods, while your at it go visit japan and meet the great japanese people. Dont forget to try the Ramen!"

I dont hate it, I just dont find it very interesting.

I love Splinter Cell, but i can only play them once, they have no replay value for me.

Definately something wrong on your end there buddy.

[Elite Lord Sigma]

Heh, I really don't play stealth-action games...except for Second Sight, which is currently lost at my friend's house. But anyway, I'm sure you aren't alone, Captain. I really don't get why GTA is so popular myself, along with possibly Gauntlet.

GTA: Grab gun, go on shooting spree, get killed by cops/helicopter, wake up in hospital, repeat

Gauntlet: Kill, and kill, and kill, and kill!

[Lawr]

GTA is fun because you can take out your anger
on the people.

If you like Splinter Cell. Get help.
If you are a Pirate Red Mage but hate MGS anything. Get more help.

I can see why people mightn't like the MGS series, though it's one of my personal favourites. Not playing the games in order could be problematic, though - playing MGS2 first plunges the player right into an on-going plot that's too heavily linked to the original MGS, and it's also (in my opinion) a little pretentious and fond of its own complexity. MGS3, while with a more separate story, is intended as a prequel; it also has more complex gameplay than the earlier titles.

Pretty much your loss at the end of the day, 'cause the MGS games have all been extremely enjoyable to me, even if MGS2 totally went to crap in the last hour or so of the game.

The best part of MGS2 was Snake's mission, by far.

No wai! That part was the best! I did the last part of the game like six times to try and make sense of it! How's that for replayability?

[DK]

I made sense of it, I just thought it was stupid. It had been so promising with the Katana, too.

[Alixsar]

100% your loss.
