Hopefully Vinny tries to explain DBZ's story again. I just watched all the DBZ quicklooks again not too long ago and him fumbling his way around the story is just hilarious.

He always seems to be stuck/confused on the GT Goku thing where he becomes a kid.

GT was sucky ass attempt at keeping the series going after original series ended. I hated it.

I don't think I ever actually watched all of it. I know most of what happens during it I guess but I think I only watched the beginning few episodes.

from that twitter thread, vinny seems to be really liking the game lol.

It's pretty ridiculous he caught up until buu :p

He would have been what... in his 20s when those were on cartoon network?

Damn, I totally forgot about the being naked in the box part in MGS3. Much thanks to Dan for letting Drew know about that. Man, that cracked me up. XD

Man, the /v/ GB threads get pretty weird
 
Finally just got around to starting MGS3, and it's already off to a wonderful start. I think this will be the most entertaining one yet.

I had no idea Kyle Cooper did the titles for MGS3. I mean, it's been around 10 years since I played it, but I figured I would have come across that information at some point since then. Easily, one of my favorite title designers out there, and this was no exception!

edit: Rorie reminds me of Andre from Prison School in that photo, haha

You're a big guy.

He's doing Phantom Pain as well! Should be amazing.

Finished MGS3 ep 2. Dan wasn't that bad. People made it sound like he was a major distraction. I thought Dan's suggestions were useful. Naked in box, hahaha

Bah, Dan, keep doing what you're doing.

Stuff like the naked/box calls probably wouldn't happen unless Dan said to do it, considering neither of those things really have a reason to happen otherwise (the box is made obsolete by the camo, and the naked camo is pretty much useless).

Yup, it was a great moment, happy they did it.

Agreed. A lot of what he was telling Drew was stuff he would have never found out on his own, and stuff that a lot of people found out by looking on the internet anyways.
 
Trin from Cards Against Humanity has a PAXamania promo, it's pretty good.

https://vimeo.com/121198127

Does anyone have any links to the other ones?

Haha. I know some people aren't into this stuff, but I think it's great!
What actually is Paxamania this year? More than just the Rumble?

3 matches. Dan vs Alex for the title, grudge match Samantha Kalman vs Dr Tracksuit, and a 'newbie tournament', winner gets an invitation to the rumble

Ah, I see. Thanks!
Looking better than the Mania card already

I wholly disagree about the box.
gets SUPER useful later in the game.

Also, why did Kojima ruin this game with this? You guys probably know what I'm talking about.
goddamn escort mission

Yeah, I agree. I think people forget that Drew isn't a "Vinny", hes not the type that just explores the limits of a game and does wacky stuff. He needs a little direction. Telling him that he can shoot the bridge and throw snakes at people are things Drew would likely never discover on his own.
 
I got it basically by blind luck the first time I played it so who knows

also

It didnt really seem like a luck thing so much as just getting
the AI to cooperate. I was lucky, I just had the enemies file into a corridor and I mowed them down with the M63 or whatever the big machine gun was. That thing basically carried me through the game.

Also I was about to post about how that game really helps me understand more about what I've read about the MGS story from wikis and the like but then
I finished the credits and wait what excuse me?

She's making Vs.... Like Vinny... Like her new boss.

Follow the money


On a related note... Apparently she blocked me on twitter at some point... I, honest to god, have no idea how that happened lol. Never talked to her or even followed her.


Edit: According to the search this is the only tweet where I ever mentionned her https://twitter.com/Megasoum/status/553293687829331968

I guess that's fitting considering my original post here lol...

Oh well

Smoke grenades and claymore are your best friend for that
escort mission.
You can also use TNT to
to blow up a tree trunk that functions like a bridge so the enemy can't follow you past that point.
 
Aside from the stuff I'm still confused about, which is all well and good, here are the problems I had with MGS3 story/gameplay wise:

All the crappy on-rails sections at the end on the motorcycle. Not fun.
100 billion dollars doesn't really seem like enough money to control the world.
I think that's all I can think of right now. Aside from what I've already said about
the escort mission.

it was the 60s

back then you could get gum for a nickel

so the philosophers are essentially just BIG GUM manipulating the market

also I'm bummed because I
tranq'd the boss at the end (made easy by using snow camo during the fight) but I didn't make it over to her camo drop in time because I was using the mosin.

First spoiler
M63 helps. Infinite ammo, hold down that button and sweep the area. Snake does a Rambo yell. It's cool.

I'm trying to figure this out...

At GDC there is going to be some kind of big Project Morpheus event, possibly multiple Valve things, and who knows what else. Why would GB not cover this?

I wouldn't really care, but it seems like they just did their dumb panel/wrestling thing at PAX South. Why are they so locked into PAX's schedule? GDC isn't some fluff videogame expo. It's a real thing, that can provide some really interesting content.
