I thought about it, but it would be hard to get a GameCube copy running on PC, I think? I'm not sure if unmodified DVD drives can read the GameCube discs and access them for an emulator.
It would help if the models had actual faces and and things like that.
Nostagia helps a bit, especially when it comes to overlooking the warping textures. The visuals are good enough to convey the cold, oppressive environment, though, and the voicework and music are still top notch. I'd figure newcomers would be more annoyed on the gameplay/controls front.

I need to keep track of multiple community threads now? You all need to chill.
The deliberate lack of texture detail is actually a huge part of what makes MGS one of the few PSX games that still look great today despite the system's technical limitations. There's simply things you can't do on a 10x7 resolution with pixels wobbling all over the place, but the MGS art team used those shortcomings to their advantage and created a very distinct, coherent style around them. Vagrant Story would be another example of this.
TTS is a joke
Nah. In the postmortem article in Game Developer Magazine (by Akihiro Imamura and Akira Yamaoka) it says "Even though the Silent Hill 4 project was a proper sequel to the Silent Hill series, our top objective for the game was "change". Not sure if there are any other quotes from people actually in charge.
If you're interested in the whole article, it's in March 2005 issue, which you can legally download from the GDC Vault, along with probably every other issue released before the mag closed down :

This is both the Steam and MGS OT so you actually have to keep track of one less thread
I did not know that, thank you sir. I still managed to log in and do my war table missions before fucking off to work, cloud save werent working so I hope nothing gets fucked up. Had to leave those 5 hour missions doing tho!
Steam and MGS are a match made in Outer Heaven. Konami pls.
Chapter 5/6?
Just giving away a spare. Must be used by the 25th.

git gud?
git rekt!!
There's checkpoints everywhere though? The alien shouldn't be that much of a problem either if you keep moving at a decent pace.
e: yeah, chapter 5 is a bit more difficult than anything else in the game but same stuff works there, don't crouch or hide if the alien isn't close.
Try to get past 6.
After that you'll have some downtime till the flamethrower will be at your disposal.

It's long? I feel there are not enough missions. There was an outcry when EA announced there won't be any DLC on PC.
I was making pretty good progress, going from cover to cover. I went into the room with the list of names, made my way back out, and was heading for the next area when it would all of a sudden magnet straight for me every time. Happened five times that way.
Dungeonmans is out of Early Access on December 9th. It's a fun little roguelike, with turn based combat, an overworld and a "academy" that you upgrade with loot for your next dungeonmans.
y'all motherfuckers need jesus.
IN some cases there are set paths to follow, use distractions if you can as that will buy you time.
Linear corridors suck though:
I just wish I had a oculus rift for this game.

Here's a gamespot video of Alien Isolation with Oculus Rift. Pretty funny to watch. NSFW language.

Oh god, it's another zombie game too.

Look around dragon age nexus.

eh, i really don't give a damn about that, the story's and the performances are great and ridiculous in a way i enjoy, having faces would add up but not playing mgs1 over such a silly thing is dumb
Whoa, you can change your GAF username? How do I do that?
Hi,
Here is a compilation of shooters you might find interesting. Steam doesn't have a reliable system to check keys, so if one is bad or used please don't hesitate to let me know so I can try and resolve the issue.
PM an admin your name change request and they may grant it.

Received the same message (and link) from a different 'user' yesterday. I wonder how many accounts these guys juggle as part of this scheme? Would love to know what their strike rate of success is, but there must be some incentive for them to persist with these rather lame (and very poorly written) shenanigans.
I imagine their success rate is minimal, but still successful. Best to keep mentioning it and showing their names and the way they word it, so that more of us can be vigilant!
