Mario Kart Wii is always interesting with four idiots drunk. Rock Band/Guitar Hero are also amusing as the drinks pile on. For single player, I play games like CoD4 or Battlefield. The alcohol numbs all rational thought and I make it a point to start killing the people who kill me, even if...

Amusing to me how this thread started a little over an hour ago and half the posts are a small flame war. (I'll put $5 on shatnershaman) Anyway, another set of games that lost its luster for me is Hitman and Hitman 2. I absolutely love the Hitman series and still play Contracts and Blood...

Have any of you read a book called "Eats, Shoots and Leaves"? Although it is not a perfect grammar book, it is still quite funny and the author is about the closest thing you can find to an obessive grammatican with a keen sense of humour. One of her grammar exploits sends her to a local cinema...

The Syphon Filter series has become very disenchanted for me. I used to love the first two games on the PS1, but now they just seem redundant and rather poorly done. Of course, they were smashing back in their time, but I just finished playing both and found myself feeling empty instead of...

I totally forgot about the secret theatre! That was easily my favourite part of MGS3.

Pretty much any racing game that does not allow you to blow up the other cars. Honestly, the only time I have fun in a car in a videogame is GTA or Twisted Metal. Part of this is my inability to be good at racing games, but then a big part of it is my anger at the fact that people can get their...

Perfect example of why spell checkers should be required for everything that allows you input type. But poor grammar and typing ability aside, the point is quite vaild and I am inclined to agree. I guess it's the whole 'we want to see the car crash' syndrome: we like to see violence as long...

Running around in cardboard boxes always put a smile on my face. Especially the conversation with Sigint in MGS3 when you're wearing a box as you call him. After unlocking the stealth in MGS, I spent my entire second playthrough smacking guards upside the head and never getting caught.

I can confirm that I am an idiot, hehe. You are correct, the Essentials pack DOES NOT have either MG or MG2. My brother misinformed me when he purchased it, saying both MGS2 and MGS3 where the expanded ones with all the fancy extras added in like VR missions and the other games. I just called...

Actually, for me this was the quickest boss fight. I guess it's not inconcievable that this whole area could be set up that quickly, as you are correct, it's not that hard to make a tape recording. Maybe I'm just a bit bitter because I thought the whole tracking part was fun, but on the side of...

Ahh, that makes a bit more sense. Somewhere along the lines I heard the words 'vital stats' and thought of this, but you've cleared that up. Thank you. Also, I would like to point out that the drones at the end could have just as easily attacked the Mk. III while they were atttacking...

Actually, it's the same Johnny from MGS and MGS2. The Johnny in MGS3 is his grandfather. Our Johnny even tells Meryl he was in love with her since Shadow Moses, which clearly makes him the same one. Check that helpful database you mentioned, it's there. I think the Patriots are supposed to...

Call: Guns 'n Roses Chinese Democracy will never be released when Axl says Call: Princess Peach and Princess Daisy are secretly lesbians, hench why they never put out to any male character Call: Uwe Boll's next videogame movie after 'Postal' will be just as bad as everything else he has...

Before we get into this topic I would like to say that I am firmly pro-Metal Gear and despite the flaws and questions that are about to follow, this is easily my favourite game series. That being said, it's certainly not a perfect series. Here are some lingering questions the end of MGS4 left me...

Figures this would turn into a fight between Metal Gear lovers and haters. But thus far, no one has really answered one of the original questions, and that was where to find Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2. If you have the Essentials pack, you will find both games included on the MGS3 disc...
