The best metal gear of all time.

The Phantom Menace of Metal Gear.

The Avengers: Age of Ultron of video games

That's literally 3 but ok

>>719755336 (OP)
only true mgs fans understand this
>>719755425
fuck yourself with the star wars bullshit its not even remotely similar to that.

>>719755336 (OP)
Phantom Pain is better in tech, gameplay and general game design (there's ACTUAL levels with actual skill involved!), but since it's incomplete, 4 is still the best when you consider plot+gameplay

>>719755336 (OP)
It has the best core gameplay in the entire series

Blackpilled incel raiden was kino

>>719755937
literally this. Play it on The Boss Extreme and its just pure excellence and challenge.

Shit movie, you need to be a nigger to like this

>out of touch director gets exposed for the fraud he is
>awkward forced humor that only infants laugh at
>beloved characters ruined for no reason
>"why does this even exist?" appears in the head of all people above 100 IQ while playing.
>fanbase is full of people who like it ironically/post-ironically or literal retards
>the unironic fans will point to "badass scenes" like pic related (the EPIC old snake vs ocelot fist fight at the end) for reasons why it's actually still good
It's the same exact thing.

>>719756336
Neither the phantom menace nor metal gear solid 4 were that bad. Phantom menace just had too many moving parts during the climax and jar jar was annoying. MGS4 screwed up a few things but it gave the series a proper ending.

>>719755336 (OP)
It was a cool movie but being forced to play a video game every 30 minutes became very frustrating.

Thankfully the last hour doesn't have any of those interruptions.

people who liked this piece of shit game have to be the embodiement of that pseudo intellect absolute bottom of the barrel losers who wear dusters and shit.

>>719755336 (OP)
you know, for some reason, i feel like the few parts where you actually get to play this movie, are more memorable than anything in mgs3. I might be misremembering though. Also, i like the idea of cutscenes where you can move around and observe specific details. Someone should explore that idea more

How the fuck is this reknown AAA game still stuck on ps3

>>719758768
Act 1 and 2 are great after that its low quality gameplay like: follow the tracks on the hallway with your nvg, follow weird man on the hallway and avoid detection, on rail shooting, nostalgia trip with barely any enemies, etc

2, obviously.

Nah. It sucks. Not even the first two acts are worth much in terms of level design. I replayed it a week ahead of Delta. Time has softened me on it a little, but only in that I no longer hate it and feel more apathetic about it. It's not good either way, though I think the art direction is better than I gave it credit for at the time.

>>719755336 (OP)
I always believed this but after playing MGS Delta, my belief is only getting stronger. MGS 3 has so many needless exposition in comparison to 4.
4 was literally trying to explain the whole timeline, connect the dots in the best way possible and try to make sense out of the whole nonsense MGS 2 started.

4 is the best case scenario.

Doesn't mean it's perfect, the beauties for example were very tacky
>Snake, did I ever tell you about the cringing goat who was forced to live with goats in her childhood
Some stupid shit like that where Drebin is there to say it. The few gameplay moments were great. MGS 4 is one of those few games you wish it had more gameplay.

>>719759215
Dude everything is explained with nanomachines, the poopoo caca funny man marries snake's bitch, theres so many shit that wouldve been better unexplained

You are actively a lesser being if you enjoy MGS4. And I don't say that for many games.
MGS4 represents the CONSOOMER mentality better than most games. An absolutely unnecessary game from a series that should've ended already that gets applauded by braindead retards who don't care if the game's existence actually improves the series' tone and instead just wants to see their favorite characters (even if they get butchered beyond recognition).
Chock full of nostalgia pandering, but nothing of substance. "OH WOW, METAL GEAR REX IS FIGHTING RAY! SNAKE AND LIQUID OCELOT FIGHT SIMILAR TO MGS1'S LIQUID FIGHT"
What substance does this actually add to the game other than shallow "hype moments and aura", as the kids would say.
Not to mention a desire to tie things together just for the sake of references, even if it doesn't make any logical sense, such as the MGS3 codec team actually being behind the Patriots the WHOLE time !!!111!!

>>719759215
>4 was literally trying to explain the whole timeline
It didn't need to do that, too. MGS4's entire mission statement is terrible.

>>719758876
-Act 1 is probably my favorite just for gameplay but I wish it had just a little bit more gameplay
-Act 2 is okay. I don't like the start of it but Laughing Octopus is a fun, So is the Frog section afterward and it has that Raiden/Vamp not-sex scene
-Act 3 is garbage, Everything about it is terrible. Long cutscenes, annoying tailing mission, Raging Raven fight is lame, On rails segment with Big Mama because hey remember the better one from 3? let's do it again but in the middle of the game instead of at the end. Thankfully they didn't put another escort Eva mission after that section but they were going to.
-Act 4 is bad but only gets a pass because it's on Shadow Moses and they throw in a Rex vs Ray fight at the end.
-Act 5 is good but there should have been more stealth sections after you breach Outer Haven

This is good, Isn't It?

Thanks for literally proving me right here >>719759563

>>719759215
Interesting cuz after playing Delta I realized just how baby mode 4 was by giving the player easy tools like Octocamo which WAS cool but still easy, the Solid Eye and the Metal Gear mkII.

And I liked 4 but looking back it was really streamlined and easy. Hell you can breeze by the start of Act 4 by just tossing Chaff Grenades and running to the next location

>>719759113
as someone who wanted to play the portable titles are they really not that good?

>>719759563
>"MGS3 codec team actually being behind the Patriots the WHOLE time !!!111!!"
Still upset over geeky weeaboo Para-Medic being Dr. Clark? She was never a good person or rather her fate was sealed when she's talking to Snake about how cool cloning is.

>>719760259
It's a relative ranking; D is harsh but not as harsh as it seems. I like PW quite a bit despite its faults. PO just sucks, though.

>>719760204
It's the truth. It's still a bad Act but it IS carried by nostalgia.

I have literally nothing nice to say about 4. People who praise the gameplay or whatever are grasping at straws. There are 0 memorable boss fights or interesting things going on. The only thing I can remember is there was like a noir section (I don't remember it being particularly good either).

>>719760698
The only reason Laughing Octopus is a decent fight is because of all the hide and seek gimmicks. And it's only decent because we never did get a fight with Decoy Octopus so there was nothing to overshadow it.

I think Laughing Octopus is the best one, Crying Wolf is the most annoying but still somewhat memorable because of the big open snowfield, Screaming Mantis and Raging Raven are whatever.

That's not MGS 1
