Been playing some Peace Walker yesterday. My favorite gun in MGS is always the silenced hand gun, the MKII Hush Puppy in PW's case.

The tranquilizer guns have always been my favorite ones, as you know.

It's a pretty fucking genius addition, I really love that they gave us the possibility to go completely non-lethal through the entire game. It's a pretty original concept too, giving the player a tranquilizer gun to keep throughout the game so he can avoid killing people, I mean I'm sure there's been games before MGS that had some tranquilizer rifle but not used in the same way

Yeah, I usually try to kill as few people as possible, right now my PW equipment is the hush puppy and the anesthetic sniper rifle.

I love all the weapons of the Metal Gear Solid 1&2 area. They're all incredible iconic to me. M9, USP, PSG-1, Nikita, Stinger, Chaff Grenades, FAMAS

That's not say I don't love the weapons of MGS3, but I do think the ones from the first two games are more iconic and identifiable with the series.

I always find shooting in MGS games a lot of fun. The weapons sound very realistic and different from eachother. It's very satisfying.

I like God of War, but don't worry, I like MGS boss fights as well. They are some of the most original boss fights I know, and there are always many ways to tackle them.

Still tho, recommending all dem games and MGS was nowhere to be found.

I shouldn't bitch on GOW for it's Quick Time Event bosses, I'm sure there's shit in-between that (if not tho, they can fuck off, but I believe there is stuff in-between) But any games with boss battles really are doing shit right, there's too little of it now, it's a shame.

It seems like if you want boss battles you'll have to turn to hectic hack n' slash games and it's a bit of a shame.

Anyways, watch this

It's super entertaining, the guy is... fucking ridiculously good, how many times would he have had to play to pull off those shots?

Yeah, God of War boss battles aren't just QTEs (in GoW3 a little more), although I do like QTEs. But that's a matter of taste.

And holy shit at that video.

Something I would've loved is if for MGS1 Snake's VR Missions they used the Genome guards, they already had the model ready for use, since Genola is featured in the game and he's basically a monster sized Genome soldier. I get why they didn't tho, to keep with the VR theme and all that, but would've been cool

I've had that same exact thought!

Just wondering why the world doesn't care about Metal Gear Zeke but Metal Gear D is a big deal. Could Zeke not launch nukes?

It can. Perhaps the next Big Boss -game will explain OR retcon the lack of awareness of Zeke.
WHOOOOOOOOOO

I don't think anyone but the members of MSF actually know about ZEKE.

The Tanker level is the best level, from all MGS games.

I do thoroughly enjoy the tanker level in MGS2. The beginning cutscene with Snake jumping off the bridge onto the Tanker, so fucking sweet. Extremely well designed and well paced. The music, the climatic event....just amazing. Easily one of my favorite moments in MGS.
Would I say the tanker level is the best? No. It's definitely top 3 in my opinion.
