    Once I get to peace Walker the stream will basically be a lets play since I'm gonna play every mission and watch he cutscenes

    what about all those tapes??

    (some of them are pretty amusing at least)

    also poor mgs4, no votes. i was really close to voting for it just because as far as entertaining gameplay it's the best one i've played, but it's such nonsense on a story level that 3 is a way better game overall.

    i bought ground zeroes for pc. looking forward to playing it if what people say about the gameplay is true.

    wait which ones do have bullshit unfun penultimate boss fights

    the penultimate boss fight is usually against metal gear

    REX, the RAY fight, the Shagohod, and Vamp are all fun fights

    if anything the final boss fights are the bullshit ones

    fuck liquid

    and the final fight of 4 is awesome but it's also super fucking hard on high difficulties

    the only other metal gear I've played is revengeance, and I hated jetstream sam so much that it almost retroactively destroyed my good will for the whole game

    I think the idea behind the sam fight is incredible, but the execution was unbearably frustrating to me

    honestly, that pretty well describes my relationship with metal gear as a whole

    it's why I prefer to experience mg by watching your videos or reading the hiimdaisy comics instead of playing it myself

    Wait which Sam fight?

    They're both pretty basic 1v1 duels, so there's not much to execute. You cut him up and prevent him from cutting you up

    EDIT: unless you're talking about his DLC, which yeah can be pretty hard if you're playing him like Raiden. Apparently you can combat roll! Which I didn't know the first time playing through

    I heard people were talking about Everybody Loves Raymond in here?

    Remember that episode where Frank says something mean to Marie and Robert voices his resentment of Ray? That one was my favourite.

    Putting Revengeance on the poll isn't fair to the other Metal Gear games. They're good stealth games married to bizarre stories and lots of parts I find dumb, whereas Revengeance is a superlative action game married to THIS motherfucker:

    Just finished the main story of Ground Zeroes

    That sure was a poopy ending but my god, the actual game part of it is phenomenal. Definitely gonna go back to the side ops.

    this is how i feel about the armstrong fight. it's hilarious in concept and is sufficiently ridiculous, but damn if it isn't frustrating as hell. mainly when he tosses the debris at you and if you miss the slices it's a whole health bar lost. it's not super intuitive that you can just run away either. like when it puts you into that blade mode obviously your first thought is to slice stuff, but doing it with such precision and in such a small amount of time feels almost impossible.

    and i liked sam as a fight. i didn't really feel like his mechanics were bullshit or unavoidable.

    I can't think of a boss fight in recent times I've hated more than the Giant Enemy Crab Gear and Armstrong fights in Revengeance

    They should've put the Sam fight at the end

    every single part of revengeance is incredible except for all those annoying parts where it gives you control over raiden

    Metal Gear Scanlon 2 will conclude next week.

    Sadly it won't be live, but it's a nice Christmas present nonetheless.

    MGS3 is the only one I've actually completely played through

    I kinda wanna go back and play them all, but for now, I just have to live through metal gear scanlon

    I wish that someway, somehow, that I could save every one of us

    fuck liquid

    and the final fight of 4 is awesome but it's also super fucking hard on high difficulties

    Wait, when was Vamp a penultimate fight? Don't you mean Screaming Mantis?

    The age of heroes is over, buried alongside The Boss and her bankrupt beliefs.

    A deterrent for hire, an army without borders - from now on, our only heroes will be machines.
