dark10x at least sounds somewhat reasonable most of the time. SSX is a fucking loon, no matter how many posts he has.

Yeah but did you do it in your first post.
Ninja Scooter said:
SSX is not an idiot, nor is he crazy. He's just real passionate about Konami, and that can lead to situations like this one, where he is just plain wrong.
MGA may look substandard right now, but I have to believe that it won't look like this when it is finally released.

MGS2 is not perfect in this regard, but it holds a solid 60 fps the vast majority of the time. Most of the slowdown occurs when copius amounts of particles fill the screen (such as during the Fortune fight) and when a TON of geometry is being displayed (for example, during the Fatman fight, the entire Big Shell is viewable to the player...and the Shell is quite a detailed structure from the outside). Both the tearing and the framerate problems are rather minor and rarely occur.
TTS, however, has framerate problems far more often than MGS2. Nearly every single area involving any AI has problems with the framerate. The only areas where the framerate can maintain 60 fps usually consist of a simple room with no enemies present (or very few, patrolling guards). The second they spring to life or you start firing in first person, you're at 30 fps. It is a rare moment indeed that one can fire the pistol and not have a framerate hit.
Perhaps I am sounding a bit too harsh, but these problems are on par with games like Sonic Adventure DX or Ecco DC (though that is 30 fps with slowdown, not 60 with slowdown).
I'm almost nostalgic for these MGS-TTS sessions...

You'd have to be on acid to forget how much they're ****ing up this game.

Considering Konami is known to push the limits of technology while not breaking them, this looks terrible. It's a bit weird that Konami is using their most popular franchise, taking out all the fun of what makes Metal Gear and then making it look awkward (artwork mixed with real time graphics, which look bland and uninspired) doesn't make me believe that they're putting much effort into it. Possibly because of the cost of software development.

This is about the close as you're going to get right now:

That's the really short E3 trailer.
From the description, this sounds like some kinda point and click flash game (or maybe more like the old arcade laser disc games) where you use a card (instead of pushing the joystick at the right time or clicking somewhere) to move. That just doesn't sound very exciting for a Metal Gear game. You can tell Kojima isn't really involved.

Why do you people even care what this Jpop-sushi-eating-school-girl-outfit-wearing-Japanese wannabe thinks? Honestly...

To me , this game sounds a lot like X-Com and other turn based strategy games, which I frankly never much liked. The whole card thing seems to be used the same way you would select an option to attack/defend/etc, from a menu in the X-Com command panel.
Heh, you seem to care enough to insult him, no?

Robby to Kojima: Metal Gear Solid on the GBC kicked so much ass! Of course Metal Gear's gameplay could work on a portable system, PLEASE MAKE IT SO.
I guess a card game is decent? I'm not interested at all in this title but that isn't the developer's fault they just haven't released enough info to grab my attention.

You should either get better at this, or just give up.
Then again, you are progressing... Last time it was what?... just a copy paste of something someone else wrote. Now you're adding couple of words of your own.

Actually, I've felt some X-Com vibes too. And since I loved the X-Com games, I'm hoping Metal Gear Acid will be a similar kind of game.

MGS on GBC was kind of cool, but the crappy hardware degraded the experience for me. The bleepy music, the static viewpoint, the lack of voices...it was really hard going back to this after playing the 3D MGS games.

Looks good to me. It's the first game that's got me interested in the PSP.
