I was half-expecting Boss to tie Ocelot's legs into a pretzel after Asselot threw that bucket of icewater into Boss' face in that new 30-minute demonstration. Getting icewater dumped on you is much less pleasant than it looks, I assure you.
Speaking of legs, I wonder if Miller ever got a replacement after his amputation. Seems like kind of a dick move for Boss to get a sexy prosthetic robohand while Miller has to limp around on a crutch, given the resources Diamond Dogs has access to.
My girlfriend has gone home and now I feel like shit.I guess I have MGS for company now.

Dunno about PS3 though.You can do it on PS3 also but it's better with the DPAD.I'll try both, but I might stick with the d-pad anyway.Make sure you use the thumbsticks when you fight Sniper Wolf. Using the d-pad is awful with the sniper.Sniper Wolf? I'm stuck on Revolver Ocelot right now -___-UPDATE: Ok, got past Ocelot (finally) and now I'm outside. Picked up a FAMAS, a silencer for my pistol, and a mine-detecting device, which I suspect is about to become very important. Taking an anime break right now.I'm so careless, missing visual cues and such. Truth is, the most stealth game experience I have is a few Splinter Cell games here and there (the earlier ones I've never even finished yet, and I never played any of them as much as they probably deserve) and those two stealth segments in Ocarina of Time. I'm not nearly as patient as I used to be, but I'm improving through trial and error. The cardboard box has saved my life exactly one time so far.Also picked up MGS HD Collection at GameStop today. It was lot cheaper than I thought it would be. Apparently MGS3 features Metal Gear 1 & 2...? The box doesn't mention it, though.

Most of my attacks weren't doing anything, and Campbell wouldn't tell me anything useful for some strange reason. The TV input fakeout gave me a weird feeling, even though I haven't had a CRT television for years. Looked up the fight to find out what I was doing wrong and remembered about the controller port switching, and only THEN did Campbell mention it. RQ'd for the night, but about to play more later today.>.> even though I got the HD Collection, I might eventually pick up Substance and Subsistence on PS2 for my own vanity.

Few months ago, she was feeling down, went browsing some forums, and found me. Months later, I go over there for a week, and then she came over here. Was nice...

TFW I can't use the ground zero app, since they don't have one for PC/Steam

Most long-distance relationships don't work. At least, in my experience. How long have you guys been together?

Is Revengeance 'that game' for the series, like Reach for Halo, or is most of the Metal Gear series like that? Because if it isn't, I might have a look into it.
So, I have a question. A while back I watched NerdCubed playing Metal Gear Revengeance, and it looked ridiculous and really put me off getting into the series.Is Revengeance 'that game' for the series, like Reach for Halo, or is most of the Metal Gear series like that? Because if it isn't, I might have a look into it.
