Why have loads of cut scenes with awesome action scenes and not let you at least press triangle to do stuff, Shenmue-style?
|
well, I don't have Shenmue but I do have a DC so maybe someday I'll check it out.
but you can control the MkII during cut scenes, that's how you get the digital camera and extended life battery for the MkII and solid eye.
you can also get an up skirt peek at Naomi somewhere and some other tid bits if you search Easter eggs.

No one likes playing as nano-f-ed grandpa Snake.

hmm, I'm in the middle of MGS 1 and I like it alot but Old Snake is just as cool imho. gameplay wise, I don't see how it matters. you can collect face camo and play as several characters anyway.
what I really want is to play with the corps camo/skin you get from using over 55 continues (or something like that) heck, I like playing as Drebin too !
as far as weapons go I agree I only used a few weapons I found and never bought any but nevertheless, it's plenty of fun to have a wide range of weapons ( like screaming psyco's doll) at hand just for the fun of it. I see it as something to up the appeal to a wider market. more ways to play, more people enjoy playing it.
I didn't like the sneak stage either, I didn't notice the texture/geometry repeats myself but I did get bored...I liked the final shooting part on the back of the bike. no stunning game play. -equip patriot, lock on target and hold fire button- done.
but it was fun to watch.
I agree Shadow Moses was the most fun level for me and hell yess remake that game w/ the new game engine !!
I definitely liked the Drebin weapon system, it made it more fun overall when you were in the mood to take advantage of it.
I also liked the cut scenes alot, and the plot. but then I don't game as much as you might. sure they were long and I've skipped some in my second run through but first time through I was glued to them. I also downloaded the MGS encyclopedia thing off PSN so I guess I'm geeked out on it now anyway lol.
I do wish there were more weird/cool mechs in MGS2 and 3 cause I really kiled the gekkos and scrabs in this one.
you guys do know you can get the digital camera and tranq each boss (err maybe not Vamp
) equip the camera and be whisked away to a photo stage to take pics of the girls...they are supposed to dance for you if you play the iPod. it would require some Easter egg research to find out exactly how.
anyway...thanks for your thoughts
this game for me has made all others (action adventure) seem sorta lame. I haven't started MGS 2 or 3 yet but I have them now....
