I wish I could do that. It gives the guy something cool to do with his guns when he's not shooting or cleaning them.

If anyone in the game (including the "writer") had a brain, that would have been when an Indiana Jones moment would have taken place and the guy would have had a bullet through his chest before his next drivel about being an Ocelot.

Is that how the Japanese military works when it comes to nicknames, or is this more of Kojima's dementia showing through? It's never something natural-sounding, but some wacky "I'm called red-tufted albino South American gecko stabber, because they're proud creatures who prefer to lick tree bark during the full moon."

Liquid!

I think it shows how much of a wimp Ocelot is, that he doesn't just choose a simple name like Mad Dog and then kill every other guy who ever went by that name. He did his homework so he could be original, sure, but he mostly did it to avoid confrontation.

To be fair, in that scene they're surrounded by an entire squad with guns pointed at them.

When the second sequence started I expected a cutback to snake giving a "this again?" eye roll.

I swear by the game, MGS2 is the one that did nothing for me.

"JACK I SAW YOUR ROOM IS SO EMPTY, LIKE YOUR SOUUUUL"

I like the cammo system, but once you get the hang of the game and the enviroments you really won't need the cammos aside from trying to collect them for the sake of it. I highly enjoyed being able to interrogate the enemies, no idea why they dropped that from MGS4, then again, they dropped everything that remotely looked like actual gameplay from that one.

You need to work your way to the "The End" confrontation. From that point on, it becomes the best game of the series.

...but yeah. It takes going through two boss encounters to get there.

MGS2 is my favorite in the series. 3 didn't do as much for me but the fight with The End was fantastic.

It was so easy to miss the crocodile hate if you didn't know where to look, and you couldn't backtrack to get it.

FUCK THIS GAME


The proper order from best to worst MSG is 1-->everything else-->2

I'm even favoriting it to show it to other liberals later who will think it's awesome.

It's awesome when the real guy is doing it, yeah. The video game, not so much.

But I'd be more impressed if he was doing this AFTER he'd just shot the hat off a man standing 100 yards behind him while looking in a mirror and ricocheting it off a nearby barn swallow or something.

Yes, that too would have been awesome.

He probably wants to, but in this economy ...
