I loved that MGS4 made Raiden cool, it redeemed the character. I still hate him in MGS2 and resent they made me play as him.

I still think MGS2 is trash. It’s the only one in the series I only played through once. 

MGS2 got a lot of shit back in the day for similar reasons, and well deservedly. It’s still the weakest of the 5 numbered MGS titles.

You didn’t play the game, apparently.

What broke my heart was the point in the story where you play as the “villain”. They wanted you perhaps to feel sympathetic for her, even giving her a cute doggie. That part to me was torture, I did not want anything to do with that comical ball of steroids. I hate-played through her whole story just to get it over…

The first one didn’t have exactly a happy ending, it was bittersweet and satisfying. This game has an unsatisfying, tragic ending. I won’t compare both because they are both in different leagues. I think this story chose shock value, and exploited capital invested in the first game, instead of standing on its own. It…

THIS COMMENT HAS SPOILERS, YOU MADE IT THIS FAR DOWN SO YOU MUST KNOW.

2- I can assure you the script is the first thing they finish in development, and is definitely done when advertising time comes.

I rather have devs not lie to me to sell their product.

Call of Duty: MWWZ, with the inclusion of Scrapyard, is getting one step closer to the MW2 remastered we were waiting for. Add to it Rust, and two MW1 maps that were playable in MW2 (Vacant, Crash). I think Terminal is in the pipeline, and they have assets to build Afghan, Skidrow and Highrise.

I didn’t know that was a thing. About a quarter of the people I follow on Twitch are black and that was 100% unintentional.

Could readers please post in the comments any screenshots of racist nicknames or clantags you run into today? As for me, I am tired of asking them to ban the incendiary [TRUMP] and [MAGA] clantags. 

Many of those companies have black employees, so don’t be surprised if they’re the audience.

The biggest hypocrites are Activision/Blizzard, first they show contempt for the protests in Hong Kong, second, Call of Duty has been ignoring requests to ban racist usernames and clantags since the release of Modern Warfare.

Luke, here’s a scoop: Call of Duty pulls this stunt to show “solidarity”, yet they have been allowing racist usernames and clantags in Modern Warfare. The petitions to do something about it have been popping up in their subreddit since launch. This puts in question the sincerity of their message.

For you, as for me who hates anime, the only anime that makes the cut is Castlevania on Netflix. The dialog, the pace, the writing, it’s all your prayers answered. I can’t recommend a show more, anime or not.

Count me as one of the people who don’t like anime. There are some specific things that I don’t like about it, so for me to like these shows, they have to avoid the criteria of the stuff I dislike about anime, regardless of story:

The loot in those bunkers is... underwhelming. Why not have a killstreak in it, like an AC-130 to rain down hell from your bunker, or a juggernaut suit (maybe fight a juggernaut NPC to get his suit), or guaranteed grenade launchers (they show up at random anyways, like the keycards). There must be a ton of cool ideas…

Come on people, it’s canon that the best THPS soundtrack song ever is Superman by Goldfinger.
