THE REASONLESS ASS-PULL WAS THE BEST PART OF MGS2

Lotta cool moments like that but every time I think about Naomi, I wish they'd kept the accents.

I had a regular, non-HD TV. I got an HD-TV from woot.com because of that game. That's how long ago it was.

I like to think MGS2 was very well intentioned: things *seemed* unreasonable, outlandish and outright aggressive in its assertions that it needed to be the way that it was
But displacing time away from it and examining the entire experience having been something with deep intention from the start really makes the case that everything from jungle boogie to "I need scissors, 61" being faithful elements in the hellthread that was MGS2
but real talk Naomi should have stayed British but I realize they really liked Hale and she's not a bad egg, so there's that I guess

@Soma @p @Koropokkur @Tony @admin @fuckracists @graf @locagainstwall @miscbrains maybe in the regard of "please let me make something else other than MGS games."
still, PW needed to be made, and the world wouldn't be the same without Revengeance

@p @Tony @admin @fuckracists @locagainstwall @unlight @miscbrains @Koropokkur @graf The entirety of 4 felt like a hate letter directly from Kojima himself.

I'm pretty sure that in the universes where it didn't get made, Bizarro @p has some terrible sense that he's been cheated and is bent on revenge.
> the world wouldn't be the same without Revengeance
To be fair, Kojima didn't have to do anything for Revengeance to get made.

doubt that had anything to do with outrage, just peculiar English VA decision making: a little bit of nepotism with the Ocelot VA's wife calling the shots or something if I recall correctly
Kojima involved himself by.... not involving himself, in a way: after Platinum picked it up and ran with it people pestered him to try to get him to do shit with it and he was like "nah let people who love the franchise do what they want" at that point, and the rest is history
a Revengeance sequel would have been the correct move instead of Metal Gear Survive in hindsight

People would have bought a Revengeance sequel.

I would want to see a DLC with Senator Armstrong wearing a MAGA hat and being the president.
