You could argue they put the things they see working together nicely, but that is not innovation.

OK that’s interesting, but why is Squall’s jacket so short?

My thoughts exactly, made me feel like he is being condscending at Munn, and annoyed of being involved in the matter.

Comms were spotty but they did work. And they had Bishop, who would serve the same purpose as a drone.

Well, they have been involved in prior “bug hunts”, and Apone certainly was a very capable Sarge. Arguably, the colonial marines could have won their first engagement hadn’t they been caught with almost no guns due the Xenos’ unfortunate choice of hive placement.

That crossover comic did exist, and surprisingly wasn’t an 90s comic (it was published in 2000).

But the 90s actually closed with another gem, a Witchblade/Darkness/Aliens/Predator crossover published nov-dec 1999. Because lol 90s. It even had a sequel.

I recall reading in a interview with the Retro guys (I think it was for IGN), that apparently the people in Nintendo Japan had no idea what an actual Bounty Hunter is and does. Like, they were planning a series of bounty-hunting missions for MP3, but they got orders from Japan to scrap the whole thing because…

Nope, that was much earlier this year. The “event” on the director’s twitter started with a message by the Colonel, then at the middle was a message by Sniper Wold, and this is the last one with Snake and Ocelot.

What killed the game for me was the utter lack of cool and unique boss fights, which is a staple in the franchise.

The whole event started with a Codec message from the Coronel. Look it up, shouldn’t be that difficult to find.

Absolutely. I recall finishing the game for the first time and thinking “damn, this guy is going to be the best metal gear villain ever”. And then Phantom Pain came in, and Skull Face somehow ended being the worst. Yes, I put Hot Coldman above him.

I honestly enjoyed Ground Zeroes better than Phantom Pain. Yes, it’s basically a glorified demo, and Phantom Pain has so much more gameplay going on, but for me Ground Zeroes was a tighter, better paced experience that actually felt like a classic MGS game.

As great as it was to hear Snake again (and the Colonel, and Ocelot), the best part of this celebration/pitch/hype train concocted by Vogt-Roberts was hearing Sniper Wolf’s codec bit, which was completely unexpected and awesome. Kudos to Tasia Valenza for agreeing to do it.

Problem is, in Japan the voice actor for Venom Snake is the same guy who has voiced Big Boss and Solid Snake, so that justification for the switch is flimsy at best.

MGS4 has a different voice actor for B.B.

The only good bit of voice acting Sutherland had in MGSV was the “you are all diamonds”speech, which actually sounded like he put some heart on the words. Other than that, it always felt like he was just reading from a piece of paper in front of him.

I am level 3. Plenty of people with level 4 and 5 have reported that they only got 1 box. It seems that ther endorsement rewards activate at random, and a few (including me) got them at the start of the event.

Yup. I actually got three event lootboxes but plenty are reporting just one. I guess it’s related to the endorsement level.

Even as a kid I never found Pepe funny, because I though his “guy who can’t get a no for answer” gimmick to be creepy, and nowadays his cartoons are unwatchable for me. I mean, just look beyond the whole funny animal thing, and it’s basically an asshole who thinks WAY too much of himself and stalks a girl to the point…

You have achieved the much coveted but seldom seen Internet Victory.  Congratulations!
