MGS4 and Fallout 3 Quotes

[Iwamori]

COMMUNISM IS THE VERY DEFINITION OF FAILURE

THE LAST DOMINO FALLS HERE

I DIE SO THAT DEMOCRACY MAY LIVE ON

I don't remember the exact wording, but this is from Otacon in Metal Gear Solid 4:

"Snake, to continue, you have to find the disk labelled "Disk 2"... You can't find it? Oh wait, you are playing on a Blu-Ray disk on the PS3!"

That just tickled my Sony fanboy interior and that's the lines that pretty much say no to the game appearing on the Xbox 360.

Until Konami gets fed up with the poor sales on the PS3.

What poor sales were those?

Well, I'm not saying that Halo is a good game, but it sold like 5 million in its first week, while MGS sold 1 million. Things just seem to sell better on the 360.

STDs are passed better if you sleep with as many cheap whores as possible. That doesn't make the sex better.

Yes but STDs are bad while sales are good

"i don't know what weapons we will use in world war 3 but world war 4 will be fought with stones and sticks"

"War has changed."

"War...War never changes."

Which idea do you subscribe to?

Personally, I can't decide. I'm too torn. I'm tempted to say the latter, what with human aggression being so common, but the themes presented in the former and the idea of PMC's controlling a world economy, well, that's a scary thought.

Ahem, anyway...you thoughts?

War has obviously changed as warfare has become more technical. Overall however, war doesn't change. Enemies kill each other until one side is either all dead, or surrenders.

Great thought there, war never changes, cause otherwise it wouldn't be goddamn war. Saying something is still its definition is stupid. Its like saying "the French are still from France".

You can also consider who said the line. Snake, a soldier who was used to honorable fights (the kind he had with Gray Fox), now has to work with soldiers who aren't fighting for any cause other than that nice fat PMC paycheck. They all use ID tagged weapons instead of the traditional ones. For him, war had changed.

He fought alongside Raiden and didn't think war had changed.

Gray Fox came before cyborg Raiden. The ninja/scout skills weren't that odd for snake.

(sorry about the late response, AFK for a long long time.)

Anything by the mister gutsy bots is pretty damn awesome.

for my favorite single quote, I have to go with Wherner's quote at the beginning of "the pitt" when he says the clint eastwood-esque "Thats the difference between you and me; I've got a lotta guts."

"Oh God,I need to get out of *screams* Where the hell am I? I just got an Email from my own brain? No, brain, I do not like it better here. I thought you were on my side! *begins sobbing*"
-Birras, raiding Vault 92 (I think it was 92. It was the one where you would occasionally be warped into a different location with a purple filter on your vision.)(By the way, that's all entirley true. I am easily scared when I am half-asleep, as I was when playing Fallout 3 at 2 A.M.)

That was Vault 106, North of Jury Street Metro Station and NorthWest of Vault 101. I remember that place to from my first playthough. To think I was looking foward to going into a nice Vault just like the one I came from. Boy was I mistaken. That place genuinly creeped me out unlike RE5.

 

[Axle_Bullitt_19]

it doesn't change the fact that real men go out to stare death in the face;

That is no longer the case in MGS4 because the soldiers are pumped full of Nanomachines which prevent them from emotionaly reacting to what they are doing. Just like a video games, but instead of Nanomachines its just fake.

 

[Mad Maniac with axe-firing chainsaw]

You can't say war hasn't changed because every time they kill you in a new way.

 

[chromewarriorXIII]

I like what the Prototype Medic Power Armor says when you get into battle. I don't remember the lines exactly but it talks like the Mister Gutsy robots and yells insults at the enemies.

Also, anything said by Liberty Prime.

COMMUNISM IS THE DEFINITION OF FAILURE

CALCULATING THREAT TO MISSION: ZERO PERCENT!!

As a historian, I would say that war has changed quite significantly - so MGS wins this one. Perhaps you could argue that the reasons for war haven't changed (people are just as vain, arrogant, hateful and greedy as we were five thousand years ago), but ultimately Fallout 3's tagline always leaves me shaking my head and thinking "Well, actually..."

 

[Kailias]

Best MGS4 quote ever has to be

"It's all so f***ing histerical!!!" -Laughing Octopus

Anyway, I think what MGS4 was trying to say was the way war is FOUGHT was changed the goals have not changed at all.

"War has changed."

"War...War never changes."

Which idea do you subscribe to?

I think I'll go with the second one. Ron Perlman makes a good argument about how war has ravaged since our ancestors first figured out how to hit each other with objects. And we're still doing it.

Also, I'm not gonna argue with Ron Perlman. Are you gonna argue with Ron Perlman?

MGS series. War has changed. I dont care I'll argue with Ron Pearlman, he aint shit on me!

I'm inclined to agree with Kojima. When Snake says that "War has changed", he's saying that war has become pointless, that people are fighting just to fight, were as normally war is for a reason (religion, disagreements in the oppositions method etc).

In 3 dogs case, he's refering to how war is generally waged for survival ( which isn't always the case.

Of course the goals have changed; War has been waged for land, religion, possesions and in MGS4's case the economy.

 

[Gerazzi]

God bless America! And no one else!

I'll have to go with MGS's view on war. It has changed quite a bit.

Ahhh, Nathan, I'm so glad the Enclave killed you, saved me the bad karma...

Well that wasn't what the thread was about but both of the quotes the OP made to not kill each other at all.

So instead I will find my own quote,
"Let 'em eat lead!"
- the HEV Prototype Medic Power Armor

Snakes inner thoughts after jumping from the helicopter to land in the Shadow Moses level
"OWCH! I landed on my keys."

What I ment was those have ALL been the goals of war since time began. Every war has a different goal but they are always one of the examples you listed.

"War never changes."

Snake obviously doesn't own a dictionary. I'm behind Ron with this one.
