yeah, that'd suck ass because I don't want them to just become "the Souls studio"
too many studios have that happen to them already
dude spoiled one of the few ridiculous things about MGS4 I didn't know about

Transformers is definitely almost there, but I kind of want them to do something with a lot of mobility and speed. Basically I want the speed of Vanquish with the combat of that Transformers game.
I was holding a copy of Wonderful 101 in my hands not 24 hours ago.
I guess I should play Wonderful 101?

New Beastcast up, with
Vinny, Austin, Alex, Jeff and Samantha Kalman. Five people!
Technically not mechs because they are not manned machines. Also I want big hulking mechs with tons of customization. A real mech game without anime bullshit.
There are a bunch of problems with it, and I'm sure they all feel a lot worse if you've been following the MGS series for more than just a year, but I'm loving MGS4 - it's a ridiculous victory lap romp from Kojima.
That said, yeah, the Naomi scene was the first major cutscene that just fell completely flat and made no sense (not even Kojima-sense). Was she ultimately good? A double-crosser? A scheming seductress (going by the the scene with Vamp)? Rather than just killing her along with Vamp, they played out her death in a tragic way that made it feel like we missed a major cut scene or two.
But whatever, the metal gear on metal gear action made up for it.

I guess they heard the feedback about how much people like Bakalar.

I was thinking of making a button (like that yawn button that Vinny made on an old 24 hour stream), that would play one of the various MGS monkey sounds when pressed.
Then I would send it to Dan in a mailbag with a "Press Me" sticky label on it
Oh GOD... Please do it!
Hell even just a website with a big giant button would do the trick (a physical button would be even better though).
This reminds me of something that happened to my cousins friend, involving a dog and a suitcase. I'll tell the story if anyone wants to hear.

Nope.
Don't want to hear it.
Also looooooooooool at that naomi scene.

It's both as grim as it sounds and not as grim as it sounds.

It's always good to paws and think before you make a decision.

Drew pretty much nailed the issue with Naomi in MGS4: She's just a plot device, a living macguffin with no real discernible goal in mind and who is used pretty much to do necessary info dumps throughout the game.
Why does she switch sides? why is she suddenly super into vamp for no reason? why did she hold on to that bra for so long only to toss it aside as a means to track her even though she never wore it so she didn't really have an excuse for having it on her?
She could've just been sexy rando scientist no bra lady and the plot would've gone trucking along without any issues.

yea, pretty bad. i wanted her to die faster
now you have no more tears to shed.
She caused like so many issues in the overarching plot too, with no real pay off

and she was delaying her death...to help liquid...but also to betray him...but to help him again...to betray him again
wtf, cmon now, make up your mind
yeah but again a rando scientist could've done this and at least with a rando character the flip flopping of sides could just be written off as the audience being unfamiliar with the character
Spoilers for the end of MGS4.

But agreed. It was poor until this part.
I hated the unnecessary constant changing of sides and romance with Otacon.
I wanted to tell my story, now I'm all melan-collie...

I don't know why you actually need to do it 3 times.

What a bummer
to give you an idea, Contradiction, a game we all wished had sold more, has sold about a thousand more copies on steam. Hope Samantha gets more sales, maybe a decent discount or two will help it move up in the charts

I will totally get Sentris, but I am waiting for the PS4 version she is doing.

edit: oh derp, read players total, not owners total. My bad.
Yeah, my Mac could run it, but I'd rather have it on the console.
Each injection inhibits nanomachines--which have been keeping Naomi alive. Do it enough and you might totally disable or lethally mutate/neutralize their ability to work.
