I have already spoiled myself years ago, unfortunately. These are the big twists and plot points of MGS that I know about:

Solid Snake and Liquid Snake (who impersonates some kind of army officer in MGS 1) are clones of the super soldier "Big Boss", who you play as in MGS 3, which is a prequel. The antagonist of MGS 3 is "The Boss" and you kill her in the end, but you find out that she wasn't really bad. In MGS 2 you play as Raiden but it turns out everything was just a simulation. In MGS 4 Snake is old and will die soon because of some disease these super soldier clones get. Then something about a microwave and at the end you fight against someone and the graphics and music change to represent the different MGS games (did I make that up, because that sounds fucking awesome). Also, Ocelot gets hypnotized by his arm (or maybe vice versa?) and is allied to pretty much everyone in the series at one point or another.

According to howlongtobeat.com MGS 1 is 12 hours long, so that's not too bad. I will probably play MGS 1, then watch Metal Gear Scanlon season 1 and see where it goes from there.
 
who was it a week ago that was like 'well i can support drew still he's still pure'

I think there's a difference between direct endorsement of someone and appearing on someone's show.

Also ignoring the fact that his project would be at extreme ideological odds with what those folks are trying to spew.
 
Drew is a Youtuber now?

I hate YouTube but I love Drew.

I don't know what to feel anymore.

I have learned YT is fine once you find the right people and peel back the layers of shit. One of my fave Let's Play channels has only 15K subs, and I enjoy checking out out everyday.

I love YouTube as a tool. And some channels are entertaining. But I hate YouTube culture. It's toxic garbage.

What's the channel? I love finding new good and less well known Let's Play channels.

I don't think Drew will become a part of that kind of YouTube culture anytime soon.

Giant Bomb is on YT. Should we all hate Giant Bomb now?

Yeah, there are def good stuff on YT if you hunt and find it. Most of the bad stuff comes from when a channel gets large enough to attract trolls who actively try to destroy anything even remotely good.

This basically. I pay attention to the stuff from Folding Ideas, Game Makers Toolkit, Moviebob, Run Button Lets Plays and not a whole lot else

UPF isn't on YouTube.

We all love UPF now.
 
The only good thing YT ever produced is pimple popping videos

this is nearly the same thing as parents being worried that television when that was getting popular

pay attention to what your kids consume and it will be ok

I agree, but it's much harder to monitor a kid's YT usage where they could be in their room on their own iPad, vs TV where that's usually in the living room, fairly loud, and physically big enough for you to see it yourself

Kids watched stuff quietly on the TV in their own room plenty.

You can set parental controls or even manage the account yourself and see the Youtube History separate of the browser history.
 
It's easy to watch YouTube videos and avoid the YouTube culture by never reading the comments and not watching youtubers that talk about other youtubers.

Youtube is great, there are a lot of varied channels out there, which is why it's always disappointing to see people you like needlessly cluster around the shite when there are other options available.

No comment section on TV, either.

film & 40s: police story

I'd love it, but man finding good copies of old Jackie Chan stuff (and HK in general) is such a pain in the ass.

Of course I'm a dork about it, no shitty blu ray upscales, missing original sound track, shitty fake 5.1 sfx, cuts, dubtitles instead of subtitles...

I'm sure they could find something that works I guess

What about big wads of earwax being medically removed?

Man, this are always so good, especially the pimple pooping ones where there's a little puss coming out of a bunch of different white heads on a person's nose. I'm also a fan of any video with bot fly extractions.

Even GB hates him, haven't hung him on a wall in ages

Point taken.
