It was a major studio release. Low budget =/= B-movie.
>I can't imagine how stupid you must be that you don't see the parallels between 80's action b-movies and Metal Gear Solid
If its so obvious you must be able to name at least one example in the first and third games, and yet you can't. There are similarities and homages, but to call it a direct rip off is disingenuous.

It is though, everything is ripped straight out of 80s and 90s cliches in action films and actors. What he made was a b movie in video game format. It's never been a secret Kojima never wanted to make video games, wishing he were a director, but was never a good enough writer to make it in Hollywood. He found a niche among casual video game consumers with nonexistent standards in narrative.

also honest hearts is the best faggot take that back. it tells the story that is missing from the main question, the history of joshua graham and his redemption. the conflict in the mojave is put in its proper perspective. second would be lonesome road, for ulysses and his background exposition or the courier. dead money and old world blues are completely skippable. they are only relevant if you give a shit about the brotherhood of steel and what happened at helios, which is a story that isn't really used to the fullest in the main quest. ncr came and took helios one, elijah disappeared at the moment of crisis. big woop.

Not bad for a game released in 2000. You should definitely play it if you haven't before.
