Does it build on the story of MGS3? I heard Portable Ops takes place between the two.

This thread is like secret Twitter.
It takes place ten(?) years after Snake Eater. I never liked how it plays, but the story is quite good and explains a few things the main series doesn't. So unless you just want to watch the "movie" on YT being linked here, I'd recommend it.

Cheers, I do have it on 360 so I may try and play it and if I'm not a fan of the gameplay I'll watch that instead.

I've never seen any video of this game. I know it by reputation only. I'd certainly like to see someone at GB play it. Not necessarily all of it, but at least a quick look.
Been a couple of really good weeks, especially this last week. So you've got a lot to look forward to!
This week also produced one of the best GB videos of all time!

I've been listening to all the Bombcasts again and I rediscovered this wonderful two-hour all-request emailfest. I hope it gets you in the Christmas spirit (in October)

I was on vacation so i'm in the same boat. Have an entire page of QL's to watch. Don't think i've ever been so behind.
To anyone who's on a quest to play the MGS games along with Drew, I did manage to get MGS2 to work for PC. It took an hour and this thread: http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=390464&highlight=metal+gear&page=3
and a bunch of googling to get my 360 controller to work, but it's pretty sweet. Obviously, completely locked at 60 fps, unlike emulation.

Uhhhhh
It "builds" on the story of MGS3 like a 13th floor builds on to a hotel or how you can build on to a sundae with cilantro.

He should probably stick with Drew for further Playstation Underground/Pizza Hut discs, but mix it up for other consoles. Bring in Jeff for Dreamcast games, maybe there's some hot Shenmue action on one of them discs.
This is a good idea.
That's a solid idea, actually. There's a distinct lack of Dreamcast content on the site.
Maybe there's a Sonic Shuffle demo on one of them.
They got some PC Gamer disks right? bring in Brad

Dan should bring Geoffrey on to do some dreamcast stuff and Geoffrey should tell the story about his appearance on GMA which resulted in Diane Sawyer touching his leg and wearing a FUBU jersey.

Portable Ops is in a weird place. Is not canon but certain elements are, there is almost no direct references in other games to to it but introduces a big twist in MGS4
Fox Unit, Big Boss, Ocelot and Eva are the Patriots

Peace Walker is very cool and builds on MGS3 and provides the bases for Ground Zeroes (which leads directly into MGS5 Phantom Pain). It might not be to everyone's liking with the short mission driven gameplay as opposed to the longer continuous flow of other MGS games and the boss fights mostly suck (giant bullet sponge enemy robots unless you have super good weapons unlocked which you wont have the first time you fight them). The story is pretty good though with Snake learning to accept the his title of Big Boss and working towards building a what is essentially a proto-Outer Heaven. It looks like with GZ though that Phantom Pain will be covering this plot thread again (Portable Ops kinda did this too).
POPs is the clunkier of the two portable games and the one that is pretty much ignored canon wise (just a slight reference to it at the start of Peace Walker). It does have a cool story though and cool bad guys but can be a bit of a chore to play through.
Diane Sawyer wore a FUBU jersey?!

After hearing the story of Dan's Game Informer promo video, I'm starting to believe in magical thinking.

I've always hated the design of Metal Gear RAY. I thought REX was great. The MGS 2 series is going to be so good. Whether you love it or hate it, It really is the defining game in the series.
Metal Gear RAY is one of the most anime-looking things in the entire series.
It's on my Premium list!

Breaking Brad Doom 2 is underrated.
One of the best, i also love the geometry wars one where Jeff and Patrick are just mocking Brad the entire length of the feature, amazing.
What if Dan Ryckert's blind optimism is the only thing keeping the world from total collapse?
It's not that much of a stretch if you start from assuming John Drake is the antichrist.

Hah! Do you have a QR code for the Mii? I tried to make my own Dr. Tracksuit but wasn't satisfied with how it came out.
Edit - Also this is what we should use our weekend weirdness on. Giant Bomb Mii Fighters!
