    Kojima and he's staff out did themselves with this Metal Gear, bravo I say. I'm in Act 3 right now(Yes, I haven't slept) And the way Act 2 ended was one of the best things I've experience in a video game. The auto camo is the truth, the money system is the shit, and the fan-service is on BLAST! Let me know were ya at to discuss.

    Yo, act 3 is where it all goes off!! That is by far my favorite act. The gameplay even shifts there. It plays nothing like the first two chapters. I finished the game last night. I played it from beginning to end the day it came out. The game is hands down the best I've ever played. I even shed a tear at the end..XD

    Myke, I don't think the MMA thing is analogous because MGS is one game being discussed on a site where everyone likes games. It would be analogous to random MMA bashing if Nardone wrote "Videogames are stupid. Go outside, losers."

    For me and maybe others, MGS has been troublesome because we love games and it pains us to see such production values being lavished on a game with a, um, unique level of actual interactivity.

    That said, I still bought the game today. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif I had to see it and I am tired of using my PS3 for BluRays only.

    ^I guess you watch more cutscenes than other games with MGS, but you still play more than you view cutscenes in ANY of the four MGSs, including Twin Snakes.

    I think it's also important to note that this time around, you're not stuck with an MK22 at the start of the game. As far as gun inventory goes, you start off well equipped /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

    Re: GOD has finally arrived(Metal Gear Solid 4 Bab

    Why?
    Why are you so insisting?
    I guess you got what you wanted. We're not talking about MGS4, we're talking about you again...

    Fuck it. At the risk of being called a cockblocker here (for the record it has not yet been proven that Kristina is actually a girl and if you believe any "proof" that she puts up over the internet... just please, let's not go there):

    HappyFriend, you and I and probably most people here, know that if this user's name would have been, umm let's say, Fightgamefan and had she not been claiming to be a girl, you would not be defending her actions so avidly.

    The possibility that Kristina MIGHT be a chick is the only reason that we are still on the MGS4 thread arguing about wether she is a troll or not.
    The proof that she is a troll isn't just obvious, it's mothafucking obvious!
    So, for all of you that keep coming to Kristina's defense just because she MIGHT be a girl, PLEASE notice one thing: all that she has done to this thread is managed to take the focus off of MGS and tried to put it on her and her fucking opinion.

    Can you think of any other members that have done this in most of their posts? A few names come to my mind:

    420gamerforlife
    Shang
    Emx

    All of these people got called out for what they were (sadly, some of them still are /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif ) TROLLS.
    But now, all of a sudden, oh, it's not a TROLL because "if I come to her aid and help her out, maybe I can get something out of this person claiming to be a girl on VFDC" =/

    I came to Kristina's defense once, on the shoutbox, she wasn't even online (iirc) so I wasn't trying to get brownie points.
    I was pointing out to KtotheG that creating a thread about what gender she might be was not right, imo.
    Now, if somebody would have created a thread titled "Kristina, is she a troll?" I would not have said anything because it wouldn't have been about his/her gender. None of us got questioned about our gender, why should she get questioned about his/hers?
    If a member claims to be a female, fuck it, I'll call that member a female until I find out otherwise... but it doesn't mean I fully believe that it's girl on the other side of this computer /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif
    I still stand by my opinion even though I can't stand how this person gets on threads just to put her ten negative cents in.

    Honestly, HappyFriend, how many posts of her putting down Tekken/MGS/whatever and saying that it's overrated is it going to have to take for you to say "wow, I guess that is trolling" ???

    Let me guess... as many as it takes for you to get a little closer to Kristina, right?

    Dude, Kristina is playing us all for fools. Here we are talking about her when we should be talking about MGS fucking 4.

    Can somebody please make this a side topic or something so that Happy Friend can chime in and defend Kristina AGAIN and she can come and do another "QFT" and then shit all over "overrated" MGS and all of the stupid fanboys that have made it succesful?

    Sooo uhh who here saw the ending?

    Who got excited when <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Warning, Spoiler: <input type="button" class="form-button" value="Show" onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = '';this.innerText = ''; this.value = 'Hide'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerText = ''; this.value = 'Show'; }" /></div><div class="ubbcode-body"><div style="display: none;">Big Boss</div></div></div> showed up? They've been building it up for so long. I sure Kojima didn't plan for it to end up this way, but it's just such a logical conclusion, ya know?

    Re: GOD has finally arrived(Metal Gear Solid 4 Bab

    Dude, you assume too much. I have bitched about MGS forever, in much harsher language than she used. If she is near banning for her offenses then I should have been gone a long time ago. I have actually toned it down in these posts.

    You are freaking yourself out and expending much more energy than is necessary to defend a game, and attack said game's detractors. The game's gonna sell a billion copies whether you promote or defend it or not. I even picked up a copy today and the series annoys me in some serious ways.

    And as for Kristina, I don't care about her gender. I am not going to waste energy thinking about it. I have a woman and if you knew me and her you would laugh at any insinuation that I am try to curry favor with a VF chick who may or may not be a chick according to you guys.

    Re: GOD has finally arrived(Metal Gear Solid 4 Bab

    This is unbelievable.

    Happy_Friend, you are choosing to ignore the fact that KristinaNardone has a recent history of trolling way too much. You were oblivious to this fact, so it has been pointed out to you a couple of times now. Please stop ignoring it.

    I could have used a VF example of trolling, like a VF4 fan going around posting in general VF5 related threads to let us all know how much they hate VF5.

    Trolling is trolling. I don't know how else to put it.

    We all know you've bitched about MGS, and many other topics, but you aren't obsessive about it to the point where you troll other threads on a near daily basis. This is what Kristina's been doing, and has only been a member for 3 weeks!

    I also want to say that I think it's utterly stupid that Kristina's gender is even being discussed (again). Kristina's a girl? So fucking what? Kristina's a guy pretending to be a girl? So fucking what?

    Regardless of who you are, if you troll you'll be asked to stop.

    This is my last reply on the issue.

    Re: GOD has finally arrived(Metal Gear Solid 4 Bab

    How do you know that I choose to ignore anything? I have not seen the threads where she is alleged to have trolled. She may have or may not have. Why assume that one guy on a site has read every other thread on the site?

    Kristina, if you have trolled on other threads then boo on you! And stop it!

    Ok, is that better?

    Re: GOD has finally arrived(Metal Gear Solid 4 Bab

    So... MGS4, how's everyone enjoying it so far?

    It's too immense, I haven't been able to stop playing it, haha. Not sure what chapter i'm at but I just fought the 3rd of the Beauty and the Beast unit Crying Wolf. I really like these bosses, the character design on them is awesome and when drebin explains how they become what they are, it's actually quite sad /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif

    The end of the act in Europe was pretty fucked up, i'll not say anything about it but those who have got that far will know what I mean....

    Oh and to those people that were saying it's not as much about Stealth as the previous games. You're right about this if you are playing on the easier difficulty setting but on the harder difficulties it's very difficult to just shoot your way through.

    I'm playing on Big Boss Hard and I frequently have to use the Mk.II/Mk.III to scout for enemy positions before I sneak in and knock the enemy unconscious... You also get more Drebin points for not being spotted and for taking out enemies without lethal force ( Figure out how to do this on each member of the Beauty and the Beast unit and you'll unlock some cool stuff /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif ), so stealth is still the best approach to take, imo.

    You chosse how you want to play the game. You don't have to engaged in combat when the PMC's are fighting the Rebels, you could work yourself around without being spotted. Is about Stealth in the Battlefield. Or Mayhem, lol. Act 3(The way it ended)was nuts! Even the beginning caught me off guard. But fans are in for treat when Act 4 starts! This game is good.

    This game is the ULTIMATE: its the only thing that could get GTA4 out of my drive. If Kristina stopped at saying MGS is overrated, it would be fine, but she had to go too far and IGNORANTLY claim it's a game for ps3 fanboys. She should be cockwhipped for that.

    Metal Gear was originally a Nintendo game, twit. In the past twenty years it's graced Gamecube, Xbox and PS2, and even gameboy.

    To paraphrase Jay and Silent Bob strike back, f--- Kristina, f--- her up her stupid a--.

    I almost got my copy signed by Kojima on release night, my group was the next in que, but because of poor crowd control he left. Im nowhere in single player, just past the Meryl part. Because Im always on MGO and I insist on playing SP on big boss hard mode. Look for me online, player name sna.ke.e.y.e.s. , in the OTACON room.

    ok well maybe the game has its merits or whatever, but the above is a good example of some pretty devoted fanboyishness.
