Between all the games, my favorite is Metal Gear Solid, since its writing has so many interesting bits that they don't take place in Metal Gear Solid 3, but the latter offers a more interesting and memorable story than the original. Especially since in the latter, the actions that take place haunt the character and to an extent the player since they are the ones who must pull the trigger to end The Boss' life, and feel like spitting in the face of the CIA for what occurred.

However, in Metal Gear Solid, things like emotions, and the story itself is told through the characters. Otakon falling for Sniper Wolf and being emotional, wondering whether love can bloom in a battlefield can be a metaphor for some of Solid Snake's thoughts since he is at the time, falling in love with Meryl. However, Solid Snake is a cold blooded and haunted killer who can't really express those emotions, especially on the battlefield that was Shadow Moses, so Otakon, a more common person who hasn't suffered from atrocities and war, he works as someone to deliver emotional responses that albeit are silly, they are essential ones that Snake cannot comfortably express.

On Metal Gear Solid 3, the relationship between the characters is slightly worse than what it was in MGS, nonetheless it's good, but the relationship between who Big Boss interacts with it's always either limited, or you know that he's being played by EVA. On the other hand, it compensates by giving a mentor like The Boss and the most interesting codec calls in the series. From fun ones, to depressing ones and simple explanations of game mechanics and weapons, the codec is something people try to listen again and again without a stop simply because in MGS3 it's more awesome than it was in MGS4 or what it will be in the future.

But the codec had its moments in Metal Gear Solid, and it's even more fun how it literally breaks the fourth wall for you to find the codec number for Meryl. There are some interesting conversations, but they are mostly told via Miller or Nastasha, and they hold up for you to learn more about either Alaska or the guns you're using and the military systems.

So, I think hands down, Metal Gear Solid is superior due to its characters, storytelling, but albeit loses a little in the fact that the characters in the codec are more interesting in Metal Gear Solid 3, since most people never speak to Miller or Nastasha outside their automatic calls.

Now, for the worst game? I am confident that Koji Pro lost its track while making titles for the PSP. Portable Ops for example was an interesting game, but didn't offer that much on the table like Peace Walker did, I think it's unfair because Peace Walker upped the standards for PSP games in a sense, since it offered a whole experience, and not just another spin off or side story, it's an actual Metal Gear Solid title, on the PSP, and it's a great game, but yeah, for the worst in the series, Portable Ops+ is my choice.

Oh... I see.

this is a joke that was posted a lot when you weren't very active

Skyrim will be remembered through nostalgia glasses as one of the best games ever made.

Sky rim is the benchmark for modern gaming...

Arigato, Kojima-san.

This isn't new, people have been doing this (and done much more in-depth) work in GTA: SA's mutliplayer mods. Of course, the "journalist" on Kotaku doesn't mention that, nor brings it up, since they probably don't know. Just another trashy "look at this shiny" article without any real depth or meaning besides making more content.

I find someone that looks like me to appear in public in my stead, and leave the country running to someone else meanwhile I am chilling in my villa retreat somewhere in the world.

Kingdom Hearts is the only game that I hate.

He has to pay 100k USD, when he is the type to steal 30 USD. Yeah, he's ruined.

Tate, 18, was booked at the West Valley Detention Center and is being held on $100,000 bail, police said.

Stop what?

stop it

It's funny how thinking about this does actually make you want to be violent? So it kinda kills the purpose of punishing someone for playing a game with a backdrop of violence? Maybe, the truth is that pedagogy is messing up the current generations so much, that the society we are developing will be so thirsty for violence that will lead for so many people to seek violence through the media, and so the media will always give more and more violence and sex.

Oh wait. It's happening.

When I was in first grade, on Halloween, me and my friend both had plastic swords and got into a sword fight. We both got our names put on the board without even a warning. To this day, I think that was a bullshit call.

This is just some next-level shit.

Yeah, Cheat discussed this stuff with me the other day. I can confirm that at least from what I saw so far it's a solid plan, but the couple months ETA is accurate with the amount of things we're pushing into a huge, much needed and promised update. (Mobile users, please don't kill me yet)

Couple months, most likely. I'm still working out the details, but that, groups, and a slew of other things will be fixed and improved.

These two jerks and Capra Demon are probably the biggest challenge for many players.

Lol

inb4 War of Gears a "free" game that allows you to play through the tutorial, and then you pay $0.99 per level, and you get some relevant ads that know your Google searches from the night you don't remember. It also drinks your phone battery as if it were water in an oasis.

In Greece, a country that borders with so many regions it seems ineffective. There are too many bases, and despite the amount of men who are put into mandatory service, those bases are still mostly empty. A modern country needs a professional army, not a bunch of weekend temporary soldiers.

Also, the role of indoctrinating people into society has been mostly replaced by higher education such as technical schools and universities that further show how this system is obsolete when you have near-30-year old conscripts spending nine months in an empty military base on some mountain.

It's not unethical, but it lacks any fundamental need besides a waste of resources, money which lead to the manipulation of statistics (conscripts don't appear as unemployed) and semi-free human resources for the military. (In Greece, conscripts get paid 10 Euros per month, regardless of their duties, but it might vary on current family status; e.g. number of children and age in family, dead parents and similar things)

There are also suicides committed during conscription, but those are largely underplayed by the media, and sometimes completely covered and forgotten. Some conscripts also are concerned about poor sanitation (instances of a random conscript with no training being selected as paramedic and injecting people without the skill or know-how, or cases of using the same needle on multiple soldiers)
