They said on UPF that it would go up next week, but nothing more concrete. It's probably two episodes, and I wouldn't be surprised if they put it up on Wednesday and Thursday or something like that because they're only in the office until Tuesday, and the GOTY stuff begins on Friday.

I would guess 3 episodes. I have a feeling the

is going to take him some time. As well as

[Myggen]

Ah; good to know. Thanks!

No problem. I forgot to add that Drew actually mentioned at the end of UPF that the MGScanlon stuff would go up before the GOTY starts on Friday. So it's pretty safe to assume that it's going up before Friday next week

Yeah, depends on how long they make the episodes. I'm sure we have 4-5 hours left, depending on how that stuff goes.

Never been more happy to be totally wrong

 

[Piston Hyundai]

yo fuck their reactions to Serious Sam being Gamespot's PC GotY

 

[Jintor]

you know now that i think about it i think my eyes glazed over it every time because it was called "Iron Brigade" and not Trenched which is a way fucking better name

fuck you, board games! Fuck youuuuuu

 

[Megasoum]

Watching the UPF right now... I really wish we had the ScreenedUnarchived channel.

 

[Alucrid]

Sure!

wait, what, when did this happen?

Spoiler

i realize the date is in the video title

That is the face of a man who has seen some shit. Good Lord the finale will be excellent.

They're posting it immediately right.

Hey Dan, make Drew watch this in a few days.It might help clear some thoughts.

Just give me the raw footage goddamnit.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Man, I kind of wish they'd just say fuck MGS3 and go right to 4. I need more batshit MGS.

There's so much about MGS3 that is right up Drew's alley generally speaking that it'd be silly to do that. MGS3 will just hook him more.

Yeah, you can't skip the best MGS game!

I don't know how he's going to take the lack of radar.

Well, that'd be foolish considering how far he is into it already.

 

[Antiwhippy]

MGS3 can be pretty batshit insane too.

 

[shadyspace]

There's no radar period in MGS3? That sounds pretty cool. Is there a replacement system for seeing where dudes are at, like something more limited due to the time period?

Sound radar I think?

That's the main reason I stopped playing MGS3 when it first came out.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Between the tweet of drew going in and the finishing tweet, we're looking at about a 3:30 minute finale.

 

[alr1ght]

MGS3 has no vision cones, just sonar.

[shadyspace]

That's the main reason I stopped playing MGS3 when it first came out.

Yeah, if you're just constantly wandering into dudes and setting an alert off and there's no system that helps you avoid that I can see it being an annoying choice of omitting a mechanic in favor of maintaining sense of time and place. Kind of an interesting trade-off, actually.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Honestly it's like he isn't actually using the vision cones half the time anyway.

Yeah, you can't skip the best MGS game!

He's almost finished with that one m8

 

[Misterinenja]

MGS3 is almost gaming perfection to me.

It's kind of a shame that Drew has to experience it through this for the first time. But it will be entertaining as hell for us.

It is kind of game that rewards patience and generally taking your time with it. Enjoying all the little details and soaking in the atmosphere.

Fuck now I really wanna play it through again.... I just bought a PS4 and should be going through Far Cry 4!

 

[FStop7]

Drew stared into the darkness... and the darkness stared back.

 

[Myggen]

Between the tweet of drew going in and the finishing tweet, we're looking at about a 3:30 minute finale.

Yeah, which probably means that he didn't have too many problems with

Nah man Drew HAS to play MGS3. It all helps as build up to MGS4.

 

[broncobuster]

MGS3 has an item far, far move valuable than a radar. Practically game breaking with Subsistence's camera.

 

[Gouda Jouji]

Hey Dan, if you're gonna do a bonus thing where you show Drew MGS3 trailers, you should skip the TGS 2004 one. That's the super spoiler filled one.

The E3 2004 trailer is probably the best one to show.

 

[Corgi]

hmmm need to catch up on mgs2 myself. About how many hours I got left? Just took out the harrier and spend 1 hr falling off the stupid ledges of that immediate area until i finally reached core 2.

This needs to go in the OP once we hit the finale.

 

[Zebetite]

Sudden realisation that at least one of Dan/Drew may well have shaved their beards before we enter the beardiest Metal Gear.

This. That spoiled some of the best parts.

 

[Corgi]

hope they play metal gear rising someday. i just want to see drew play a character action game lol.

 

[Jothel]

wait I thought you were Big Boss in MGS3? Is this another bait and switch?!

 

[Jimmyfenix]

You can't hama me!

 

[MG310]

So...when is Metal Gear Scanlon 3: The VirDrewous Mission?

 

[EmCeeGramr]

There are two sort of replacement radars in MGS3, which are both extremely limited compared to the Soliton Radar and run on batteries that can be depleted and need to recharge over time.

No, the best way would be the full E3 2003 one.

Bonus points if you can find the leaked version of the ending segment of the trailer that came out like a month before E3. It was insane waking up to that.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

double post i know but now i'm rewatching the 2003 trailer again and man I know that MGS3 is a mostly linear game like the others just with hill shaped walls, but now i'm remembering how the great editing in this gameplay trailer and kojima's comments about the jungle made me and a lot of other people believe it was going to be some massive open world survival thing with a day/night cycle and huge areas

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

Man, I kind of wish they'd just say fuck MGS3 and go right to 4. I need more batshit MGS.

MGS3 is needed because is not only a great game that sets many emotional pays offs (or the lack of it) in MG4... But because it tells a more grounded story that is needed after Colonel speech.

 

[justjim89]

Y'all need to watch this video and educate yourselves as to why MGS3 is one of the best damn games of all time.

I can't wait to see Drew fight The End.

 

[Anastasia]

That picture of Drew is amazing. Can't wait for the finale!

I can't wait to see Drew fight The End.

Hopefully Drew

Well he did one shot the bugs before tje elevator. The way he pulled out the coolant without thinking amazed me

 

[SteveWinwood]

once we're free and clear of mgs 2 it's only up from here

get through the worst one (2) and right onto the best (3)

 

[hammertomb]

You play as big boss.
