I think after all this time, I've finally been convinced that MGS 2 was the master piece of this series. I thoroughly enjoyed MGS 3 but I do think that's when the series started to rely heavily on fan service. MGS 4 is ultimately kind of a hilarious mess.

This most recent game is a mechanical masterpiece so I will always love it for that.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Yeah, I think MGS2 had the most solid "metal gear" style story, a nice twist right at the start compared to what the trailers were saying, and good story pacing overall. The robo-colonel is still so damn memorable, where as I feel that most of MGSV's story is going to be very forgettable.

It took till now for you to realise MGS2 was the masterpiece of the series?

This has probably been posted back when the Contradiction videos came out, but I just saw the Jenks/Simon parody video, it's great! Also the thank you video from Emma's actress.

Irish and Spanish oh lawd.

Nintendo better not celebrate too soon.

For those wondering, I did not (yet) buy a Wii U. I'm using the one from the GB office!

After revisiting the series through MG Scanlon, yes. I hadn't played through the entirety of MGS 2 since soon after it was launched. When I played MGS 3 , I appreciated its less convoluted plot, however, now that I'm looking back at the series as a whole, I see MGS 2 was quite a bit more ambitious than the others from a story standpoint and it mostly succeeds.

I don't have a WiiU... Someone should record a playthrough of the level, I'm curious.


Edit: Wait.... I totally have a WiiU lmao... Forgot about that... Well I don't have the game anyway lol.

I sometimes forgot I own a game, but never did this.

Yep, they are the sole reason I carry a silenced lethal assault rifle on me in my otherwise non-lethal gun loadout.

This is one of my favorite posts ever.

 

[Teddified]

Do you guys think Battlefront will end up being good?

 

[The Dear Leader]

Wii U's are just that forgettable folks, it's a fact.

 

[Data West]

I love Splatoon and I have the thing for Xenoblade and SMT x FE (whatever the fuck that thing is now), but I have to look at Wii U as the worst console I've ever owned. Over the Saturn and the Wii(which did have an amazingly varied library even if I hated most the motion control shit. Lots of niche titles that I picked up for cheap years later that I didn't know about and ended up enjoying) where as the Wii U... I know everything that exists. And I know I don't want 90% of it. I think my biggest 'ok I give up moment' with it was when they announced fucking Animal Crossing Party over a new Animal Crossing.

 

[shadyspace]

Yeah, but what if Zelda Wii U ends up being the best Zelda ever tho

 

[demidar]

My Wii U would get more use if Nintendo games dropped in price :/

Right now it's just waiting patiently for Xenoblade Chronicles X.

 

[Data West]

then you can buy it on the NX

It's okay. I sometimes forget I have an Xbox One since I do most of my gaming on PC and PS4

 

[Data West]

I had no idea NIS was putting out a Deadly Premonition Collectors Edition.

I'ma have to get that

 

[Jothel]

WiiU game prices in Japan are mentallll - game prices in general actually, really sucks renting games is illegal here.
I'll probably get Zelda when it comes out and try and get through it in Japanese, annoying they region locked it

[skLaFarebear]

Wii U actually ended up surprising me from how good it was. I bought it for Bayo 2 and Xenoblade X, but I still have yet to play a game on that thing that's better than Wonderful 101, even though the games I've played on it so far have been pretty incredible.

Still have to get my hands on Pikmin 3 and the eventual Pikmin 4 as well.

 

[ScottSullivan]

LOL I just saw Dan's tweets about trying to get Norm Macdonald to come on Danswers while he's in town.

Paul Ryckert's response? "If you make this happen I'm quitting my job and flying out there"

MGS2 was certainly the technical masterpiece of the series. The amount of stuff they fit into that game while keeping a solid 60 fps is unbelievable.

 

[CoolBatteryCharge]

I have to leave for class in six hours but maaaaaaan that D has come.

Even though 2 is my least favorite of the 5 main games (not including PW), its a pretty fucking incredible game.

D has come to, and so have I

 

[Moaradin]

woo almost 2 hours

 

[skLaFarebear]

Its only been a few weeks since the last Metal Gear Scanlon, but I've missed this setup so much ;_;

I'm gonna have to rewatch all of MGScanlon one day soon. My favorite content on the site so far.

 

[Teddified]

No matter how many people tell me how great the gameplay of MGSV is I probably wont play it or if I do it'll be a long time from now.

I don't have any interest in the story of this game and I've already spoiled myself. And I can't really play games if I don't care about the story at least a little bit. I guess I just have no interest in playing it any time soon.

Also I'll probably just experience this game through Drew.

 

[shadyspace]

Dan's overwhelming enthusiasm is already grating and they haven't even pulled the game up yet.
