Just shoot/punch them in the face if memory serves

I think you can just shoot em

[PotatoArmada]

Not working.

Now it's working. You gotta get Campbell to tell you to use the other port, then die, then he'll tell you to break the busts.

Finally completed mgs 3 after two half playthroughs that I never ended for some reason. Good god, I used to think mgs 2 was a masterpiece (porbably mainly because of nostalgia for it) but holy crap 3 really is a work of art. It's got me all hyped for ground zero now.

Gonna move on to peace walker now, it looks pretty awesome.

They nailed Emma straight on.

[QUOTE=Jamie1992GSC;39424119]Was it just me that did not enjoy MGR?

Also at the end of MGS 4 [sp]Raiden goes back to having a human body[/sp] So why does in MGR which is 4 years AFTER MGS4 does he revert back to a [sp]Cyborg Body[/sp]

Either way. MGR isn't bad, but I didn't find it great. Too hack and slashy. Maybe it is just me. I recall someone saying MGS 5 is in the works?[/QUOTE]
Why did you buy a hack and slash game expecting it not to be hacky and slashy

I honestly never knew you could break the busts, and I call myself a huge fan. For fucks sake I've listened to every one of Nastasha, Meryl, Otacon, Signt, EVA, Rose, and Paramedic call. But I didn't know about the busts. I guess that's why I love this series, every time I think I know everything about it someone tells me something new and I have to try it.

Don't know about you guys, but that just looks silly.

[QUOTE=judgeofdeath;39451919]Don't know about you guys, but that just looks silly.[/QUOTE]

Its one of the silliest things i've seen in a while, yet it looks pretty badass.

[Killerjc]

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;39451176]Why did you buy a hack and slash game expecting it not to be hacky and slashy[/QUOTE]

maybe because he's a loyal fan to the metal gear solid franchise and is personally disappointed with such a drastic change of game play that he finds it hard to consider maybe it wouldn't be so generic in combat

[OctopusGuy]

[QUOTE=judgeofdeath;39451919]Don't know about you guys, but that just looks silly.[/QUOTE]

"It's so silly it looks awesome" pretty much sums up how I feel about the game.

but its not a metal gear solid game
the name and tagline are different so that should be enough to differentiate the 2

[Hollywood SN]

Its not like this is new.

Metal Gear AC!D came out like 6-8 years ago and it was a turn-based card game.

[Bread_Baron]

Revengeance is canon though and this level of silly has never before been seen.

[Hollywood SN]

[QUOTE=Bread_Baron;39454608]Revengeance is canon though and this level of silly has never before been seen.[/QUOTE]

Oh really?

Like supersmart sentient AI's in the 70's wasnt silly?

Or the entirety of MGS2 after the harrier fight?

Or the codec?

:v:

[PotatoArmada]

What's silly about the codec?

[Bread_Baron]

I never said the series isn't silly, it's obviously silly. It's just never had the protagonist jump across missiles that have been fired at him and cut a helicopter in two, or rather a game full of stuff like that.

[QUOTE=Bread_Baron;39454608]Revengeance is canon though and this level of silly has never before been seen.[/QUOTE]

One of the many points of Revengeance is Metal Gears are becoming outdated by cyborgs because of how over powered they are. They kind of show that by having you throw a RAY around.

but you have never played as a op as fuck cyborg ninja

[FOOJE08]

From what I'm understanding MGR is meant to be canon, but that doesn't necessarily mean the entire thing is meant to be taken as canon, things like spinning a ray(den) and all that insane shit is no doubt intended for fun and for all we know future iterations may refer to the events of MGR in more realistic ways, replacing crazy fun game moments with believable versions of the events.

[Hollywood SN]

Big Boss benched press the body weight of Peace Walker during the boss battle in a QTE when it tried to step on him.

[Regorc's Chest]

I think it's a good sign about the writing behind Big Boss/Snake that they seem so human and connectible to that you forget how OP they can be at times.

Or maybe it's poor writing due to inconsistency :v:

Really now...? While I know the game is over the top sometimes you need to remember that Raiden already did some of this shit in MGS4.

The point is that Raiden is a badass and he can literally do anything.

[editline]2nd February 2013[/editline]

I couldn't find a video on it that only showed the scene but when Raiden stopped Outer Haven using his body... Outer Haven being like 500x larger than he is

[JackAttack]

[QUOTE=DarkZero135;39455391]but you have never played as a op as fuck cyborg ninja[/QUOTE]

But you have seen an op as fuck cyborg ninja.

See the post above me.

Regardless, we have mgs5 for classic stealth, this is just a spin off based entirely around being an op as fuck cyborg ninja.

That was like, the most ridiculous moment ever.
It was also the point where I was asking myself why the hell Old Snake was the protagonist when Raiden can outperform him in every way other than not being a bitch.
