Forums - Gaming - David Jaffe: Metal Gear Solid Story "Ham Fisted/Cheesy" (BLASPHEMY!)

http://criminalcrackdown.blogspot.com/2009/03/my-lagtvcom-interview.html


The twisted storyline of Metal Gear Solid might be beloved of many gamers, but not so much for outspoken God of War creator, David Jaffe. While he has professed his love for the series, he called the story "ham-fisted", going on to call the plot of Gears of War 2 (which he calls his game of 2008) a rip-off of Aliens.

Speaking in an LAGTV interview about why video game movies are generally pretty turd, Jaffe said, "Metal Gear's one of my favourite series of all time, but if you really just strip the gameplay and the graphics out of Metal Gear and you just look at it as a story, it's a really ham-fisted, kind of cheesy story.

at least he is not saying it is Oscar-material :P



the words above were backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

How many times has GOW outsold MGS???....NEVER!!!!



Ha, the guy behind Kratos' character and God of War's plot calls MGS4's plot ham-fisted and cheesy? I have nothing to say.



Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.

Except Rol, only MGS pretends to have a good story.



Tease.

@CGI

He need to play more JRPGs. I haven't played SO4 yet but saw some of the cutscenes on Youtube. Some of those cutscenes were just downright embarassing to watch(in SO4, not MGS). Atleast MGS has decent voice acting. SO4 has some terrible writing that is next to non existant in MGS.



Heeeyyy...dont talk about SO4..plz

And that's related to the quality of the story in which way? Going by that, Mario Kart Wii has a better story than all of your favorite games and it doesn't even feature a princess that needs to be rescued from the bad guy!

LOLL. Does that mean the Wii Fit also has an amazing story? =)

 



I kinda skipped every cut scene once Ninja guy cut off both his arms and slowed a battleship with his body. I could no-longer suspend disbelief no matter how hard I tried.

I think Pokemon the cartoon has a better story line than MGS the series.



Tease.
