the real problem with PW after the first "ending" is grindng to build zeke. running side ops and zadornov missions is fun, but you have to get those AI pieces to trigger the ending unfortunately

Those are the same things. And at least for me by the time I finished the 1st ending I had a wide variety of powerful rocket launches enough to make the AI grinding a total joke.

 

[JayEH]

I only had to rerun the bosses like 2 or 3 times to get all the AI pieces so it wasn't that bad for me.

I still can't figure out how to get the fucking head parts.
I have more than enough of the other 3 things, but I can't get one head part. I keep trying not to attack the head but I still wind up getting jack shit in the end.

It's a bit harsh to write someone off for one creative misstep in a series of otherwise impeccable games, don't you think...?

I wouldn't call any of the Metal Gears impeccable, especially after replaying them recently. Even the best ones have a severe case of verbal diarrhea, and conspiracy-laden melodramatic plots that can't be taken seriously even though they're supposed to be. The series would be in the so-bad-it's-good category if it weren't for the ambitious gameplay, goofy humor, and technical spectacle.

And Peace Walker makes it two missteps.

I should really change my avatar.

I just watched it & I don't quite get what you're referring to. You mean after he shoots the first soldier and then sidesteps while he aims? It didn't look like reflex mode was on. All he did was aim and then hold the analog stick to the right.

You are right.. looks like reflex mode was not on...but it does looks like his step to the right was more like a quick side step rather than simply normal movement to the right but that may just be me reading the trailer incorrectly

Probably a TPP only feature.

Everything you listed as a negative about metal gear is actually what makes it so good ... everyone is going to have different options on it though

Lol can't be associated with Metal Gear gaf anymore? PW isn't that bad. Even if there are two missteps in your mind, it's a lot better than most series.

Even the "bad" Metal Gears have something redeemable about them and I would definitely say the first three games are some of the greatest of all time.

All the reasons I love Metal Gear. It does all those things impeccably. I'd say the series is really consistent compared to most, but that's probably obvious given the thread.

Also, I never seen it as cut and dry as "being taken seriously". Every game in the series has moments where it puts forward serious issues or drama, but it also has moments where it's very aware of how silly it is. That's all part of the charm, man.

Nah, I love you guys! Just not a big fan of the series anymore. Still hyped as hell for MGSV though, if only because it will be a magnificent cluster-fuck.

Saka Osamu? He also voiced The End. Kojima sure likes his voice actors.

 

[JayEH]

Instead of the VGAs this year we're getting "The Game Awards",http://thegameawards.com/. There's an "advisory board" that does something but Kojima is part of it so I guess this confirms TPP will get a release date there? Probably shouldn't get hyped though...

I just wanted to let you guys know that David Hayter is doing a AMA on Reddit:

http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/2lvggo/i_am_david_hayter_vo_actor_writer_xmen_1_and_2/

It started less than 40 min. ago so you can still ask questions.

 

[JayEH]

I still am baffled on how bad Reddit's UI is and Hayter's favorite MG is MGS3 so that confirms it as best.

Reddit Enhancement Suite helps a lot. Many of the features in that browser add-on should be basic features of the vanilla website IMO.

Release date must be announced before end of this year so yes most probably around the show in December or shortly after. And expect one more trailer before the launch trailer.

is there a thread about this event specifically? perhaps we could coax a response from him in there. he has dropped hints/hype about content the last few times MGS was shown

I expect to see the MGO reveal before MGSV release since Kojima said in the twitch interview when MGSV releases Metal Gear Online will be ready too.

Indeed. KOJIMA DA GOD.

Let's be honest though Kojima is Konami at this point lol.

Also Kojima loves Keighley so it isn't surprising. I think he's also been at almost every VGA/X and Keighley is always the host of interviews/shows for MGS.

 

[Batzi]

Let's hope he'll be teasing a new trailer soon!

Wait a minute, it's in Las Vegas?! I can fucking go to it then! Is it open to the public? It's on the same day as the Playstation Experience?!
