If Dan doesn't get a little tear during
Ever since VGCW I've actually been very curious as to why exactly Wrestling storylines don't have bullshit like time travel or inexplicable magic powers. It fits in almost perfectly.

We're going to have wait until post E3 for that I imagine.

That one last dick measuring contest between John and Adamska, real men right there.
They also forgot that EVA defected from the US too.

I salute you, Crocodile Scanlon.
Also, LBJ's dialogue continues to be hilariously terrible.

To be fair, it is confusing.
"There are moments of BRILLIANCE, and then moments of sheer frustration. But they're-- they are special games. And... I love 'em!"
glad drew's still enjoying himself!
Solidus, in being President, was made aware of the Patriots' existence, and wanted to throw a wrench in their plans because he doesn't like the idea of America being ruled by a shadowy cabal. To this end, as his term comes to an end, he sends Ocelot to incite Liquid's rebellion and make off with REX's test data in the ensuing chaos, and subsequently leak the data to the world at large so that the Patriots can't control that data.
Incidentally, the Patriots are hard at work on a system to control all the world's data, rendering tools of conventional warfare (i.e. metal gears) totally worthless, so they don't really give a shit and let Ocelot go along with it so that he can remain close to Solidus to implement the testing for the S3 plan.
Not at all disagreeing, it's a jumbled mess of crazy conspiracy shit. MGS4 is only going to make it even worse (like it does virtually everything about the series)!

If I recall right, Solidus had Armstech and the DARPA Chief make Metal Gear REX and the stealth nuke railgun system, then sent Ocelot (who was actually working for the Patriots) to provoke Liquid into inciting the Shadow Moses Incident and recover REX and/or the REX Test data.
Personally, I'd like to see Metal Gear Scanlon 4 kick off on June 12, exactly 7 years after the launch of that game in 2008. My God, what an event that was.

Right before E3? So Drew can start the game and then not play it for a month?
I think it works much better when you pick the wrong gun.
Yeah I always liked the scene where Ocelot shoots.

Oh boy, is E3 really that close? Well, it's not like E3 is gonna take all June, what are you talking about a month for -
... Actually, episode 1 could be the full install and then watching the Act I briefing in its entirety with the Metal Gear Mk. II interactive bits. You only get the first chunk of the briefing in the course of the game, after all.
... ACTUALLY actually, MGS4 has that virtual range and Drew could mess around with the guns and controls in that too.
Ah whatever.
Plus it's the way you unlock the SAA to use in a New Game+.

I doubt its gonna be the end of the year, since Dan wants to get Drew caught up on metal gear before September 1st.

That was a great finale. I think Drew cried.
...
So I'm watching episode 10 of Breaking Brad, where Brad gets help from the 'blacksmith'. Goddamn Vinny is so confused haha

Damn that was good, a fitting end to Season 3. I had forgotten a lot of the later stuff, so that was a treat. Plus I never knew that the MGS database on PSN changed what it showed if you did or didn't have an MGS4 save, that's a really nice touch. Was that ever updated with new info once Peace Walker or Ground Zeroes released?
no, and its chock-full of information that was inaccurate at the time of its release
it isnt worth anyone's time, much less someone who's already confused about metal gear lore to begin with
metal gear sigint is where it's truly at

Oh they will, they've said that they're doing a bonus episode
What a great game. Ive been a casual fan of the MGS series at best, but 3 is one of my favorite games ever.
Giving Drew a decent break and coming back post-E3 seems like the best idea. Hopefully the two of them think up a new series in the meantime. Drew and Dan work really well together.

Sounds like they're not going to do Peace Walker, that's a bummer.
Aww, the salute at the end. I can't wait until MGS4. At the very least, I think Drew won't have as much problems playing the actual game, seeing as how it is the best playing out of all of them. That being said...there's not much to play of! I need to see Drew's reactions to the better parts of the game. I wonder if he'll revel in the grandiosity, or be one of the many fans who felt burned by it.
This is a pretty neat way to search for specific Bombcasts. Don't know why I didn't know about this site until now.

I wish I could find the Bombcast where they talked about some TV show and about some servers being down and Vinny made the joke that the TV shows servers were down. It's was a 2 sec thing but somehow stuck in my mind.
