I've played MGS2 countless times years ago. But since I had the game memorized, i skilled all conversations and cutscenes to actually get to the awesome gameplay.
I can't do the same with the other ones because I don't know the story and it's just depressing. These are interactive movies, not games.
Yeah I was younger and I think the cutscenes didn't bother me as much back then.
I'm just finishing Snake Tales in MGS2 and I've got a couple of hours into MGS3 already.

The speed it runs out is crazy fast, looks more like a jump pack.

if your just starting a MGS game, get your popcorn ready, but once the stage is set your pretty well off (MGS4 being an exception)

I was addicted to MGS1 and 2 back in the day. I really want to get into 3 but the damn cutscenes/codecs are so long and boring.
It's like every 2 areas I go through, I have to watch a movie.
So many weapons and still no Grenade Launcher.

I completely understand, the gameplay in 3 is so good though that its worth it, Im not blinded though, the cutscenes are intense, in 4 there is one particular cutscene that lasts nearly 2 hours I think.
I wish you luck getting through Snake Eater, its totally worth it

it looks BEAUTIFUL. One shot per clip? Thing's probably a monster. Can't imagine what would drop it in Campaign though.
Awesome! I'll going to argue with myself on why I didn't go to PAX while I sit on this thread and wait for scraps.

Whoa! Can you Pause them/ skip them and watch them later in MGS4? I know in the older games you couldnt pause them, which was stupid. A 2 hour cutscene would totally kill a game for me, I would never be able to get past a burden that big unless I could download it and watch it on the train or something lol. MGS4 is the one game I really want a PS3 for, but I have only heard bad things about it
Man MGS3 really was a thrill, Snake Eater!

I bought a PS3 exclusively for it back in the day, still worth it
I can tell you without bias that it is one of the best experiences this console generation, I keep saying "experience" because there is alot of
You can pause (and skip!) the movies in MGS4 though, I wish it was more accessible because like I said earlier, as a fan of the series, it was literally the perfect ending.
The gameplay is astonishingly good, its the MG game you wish we had all along
edit, i guess it wasnt 2 hours, it was over an hour. but sometimes if they are coupled to close together the memory runs together

An Ancient Evil Awakens?
Leads me to believe Didact isn't the ancient evil, just that you revive him to be your battle bro for Halo 5. Maybe even play as him like the Arbiter.

So, I think there is only one new weapon we haven't seen yet, which would be the crossbow looking one.
Hopefully it wont take too long to up it..

What if Master Chief is THE Ancient Evil?!
For those on twitter, I'm using 4-5 people from twitter talking about the panel on thc - http://halocouncil.com/content.php?r=744-Halo-Reborn-Panel-Live-Updates

I will check again to confirm, but I believe they are pausable.
MGS4 is really divisive on GAF, it seems. For me it's everything I could want as a long time fan (anything that can make MGS2 actually *make sense*). I don't want to spoil it, there's one change I would have made in how the game ended.
From a pure technical level it does some amazing things that I'm still stunned no one has adopted - the seamless integration of cutscene and gameplay, and the side-by-side cutscene/gameplay are just incredible.
I love it. But I love a lot of games that have very high highs and some significant flaws. I don't think you can have the one without the other, really.
MGS3 is my favorite. Hearing Kojima say he wants to make a Boss game nearly stopped my heart.
Halo: looking forward to heckfu's coverage. Liked what I've seen so far. Unsure if I want to watch a 10 min campaign vidoc though.

The Hero awakening is obviously the Chief. Will be talking about how they're making him more of a character, like the March reveal of the Chief design & HaloFest last year.

I don't think that is actually a "weapon" just a variant on the "knights" melee weapon. Unusable.

When I heard that I was so hyped, a Boss game would be incredible for sure, for me she is still the most interesting character, I mean she was the one that basically made everything happen yet she is so mysterious.
Between you and Nillapuddin im really considering getting MGS4 and a PS3!

That was up earlier than I thought, watching now!
I know the line was long enough that people waiting hours got screwed out of getting in. They won't even let people wait out those that usually leave, just told everyone to GTFO. It was only like 15 people that stuck around too.
There aren't TVs outside or a remote theater for people to watch either.

Welp fuck it.. Since I'm trying to avoid spoilers I'll see you guys around ;]

Yeah, that last fight, and then the ending sequence w/ Eva's monologue...Damn.
With a PS3 you also can get Journey, which IMO is a must play for this generation.
Whoa wtf. Watching now. Suck it PAX bums! lolololololololololololol
