| Akvod said: Gonna bring out my inner fanboy and say my speculations/accusations =P: Xbox fanboys celebrated when Rising came because PS3 lost another exclusive. When Sony fanboys retaliated by bringing up Kojima's interviews, and his Sony E3 conference, with accusations that the game is a spinoff and an "Lightning Bolt Action" game. Xbox fanboys retaliated by saying that the entire series sucked due to poor dialogue and are going further by saying that the creator, Hideo Kojima himself, made the Metal Gear games bad, and therefore Rising will be better than the original Metal Gear series because Kojima will be gone. I don't know why Xbox fans are happy that the Metal Gear series came to the 360. It sounds like they hated it in the first place, and that everything the die hard fans of Metal Gear loved (Kojima, the Japanese infusion, the story, dialogue, etc), they hated. /fanboy |
Don't be silly. Some of us loved Metal Gear Solid because of its perfectly crafted gameplay mechanics, inventive use of the hardware, the way it interacted with the player, and having some of the best boss fights in the business. The writing and story, he over preachiness and the stereotyped characters and what passes for foreshadowing and cleverness? Those have always been the weak points of the series.
The problem with Metal Gear Solid is that it's a wonderful game, but a terrible movie, and there is a lot of movie in those games.
