/vr/ - Retro Games

currently existing technology huh

IT'S NO GOOD, I CAN'T DO IT

>>4541660
NO, I CAN'T DO IT

Rule #1 is that people love threads about AVGN more than anything else.

A SURVEILLANCE CAMERA!?

five five sixers and pineapples

can you shoot me rookie?

Do you think love can bloom, even on a battlefield?

*pisses self*

This game fucking sucks. The entire franchise literally exists because it has a guy with a cool voice. That's it.

>First 3 games were extremely successful internationally on both the NES and MSX2 without any voice acting whatsoever
>Even had merchandise like novelizations
>The entire franchise literally exists because it has a guy with a cool voice
I love it when literal retards post shit as if they have even an inkling of a clue of an idea of what they're talking about

lol triggered so fucking hard

>>4541692
MGS is barely a 3 dimensional game, it’s basically a carbon copy of MG2

>>4541680
You've been blown out in every single thread you try to shill this retarded narrative in.

>>4541702
You're right, it has a bunch of parts where you crawl through 3D rafters, fight 3D tanks, fight 3D enemies and shooting from a 3D first person perspective, but it's "barely a 3 dimensional game". It's a carbon copy of an NES game... and that totally invalidates my point, too.

>>4541692
You said franchise. As in the entirety of Metal Gear. As in not just Metal Gear Solid you actual shit-for-brains

Also the first three games aren't even slightly similar to MGS? Well it's a good thing the MGS games removed
>Codec calls
>Characters such as Solid Snake, Big Boss, Gray Fox, Master Miller, etc
>The inventory with an icon system
>Metal Gear mech boss fights and plot points
>Sneaking mechanics
>Crawling
>The alert system complete with an exclamation mark
>Villainous organizations
>Recurring music such as the Theme of Tara which has totally never been remixed in the MGS games
>Ranking systems
>Cameras
>Infrared sensors
>Items such as goggles
>Weapons such as explosives
>Electric floors
>Gas mask segments
>Fights against vehicles such as helicopters and tanks
>References to the Outer Heaven event
>Incompetent guards

Fuck, you've made it painfully clear that you have never played the MSX Metal Gear games, the NES Metal Gear games, and the Metal Gear Solid games.

Now make like Otacon's dad and drown yourself fuckwit.

>>4541707
Lmao, imagine being such a buttthurt weeb faggot that you actually bother typing all of this.

>>4541692
>>4541694
Excellent samefagging, quite the coincidence your second post came just a minute after your first huh? 4chan posting limits can be a bitch that way I guess.

Fuck, you're as bad as you-know-who when he disables his trip to whiteknight himself and make it look like other people like him.

>>4541707
>Now make like Otacon's dad and drown yourself fuckwit.
Cringe.

>>4541708
>Starts the argument
>Whenever somebody replies he can only dish out buzzwords like weeb not knowing what they even mean

Lmao, imagine being such a butthurt low-functioning autist that you can't even fire up two working brain cells to try backing up your claims.

>>4541713

>>4541712
I'm not the one who posted a fucking trollface meme in 2018. I'll accept your concession though since you can't seem to stop posting buzzwords like weeb and cringe to look cool to your peers on an anonymous message board of all places. Unfortunately for you this isn't a Youtube comments sections lad.

God, 4chan needs an option to block certain posters. I'm convinced this shrimp dick is underage now.

>>4541676
...It's like one of my Japanese animes

>>4541705
I think it's just a zero effort troll now, just don't feed the kid any more attention.

>>4541706
Are you fucking retarded? Do you not know what first person is? The camera is third person and you can’t permanently change the position at all, the game is no differen’t from a 2D game. The Vulcan Raven fight is basically a fucking level of Pac Man.

>>4541729
This is partially why I prefer the Twin Snakes

>>4541732
That said you can use the sniper rifle to look in any direction for instance. One of the missile weapons did as well and I recall there being some first-person view segments.

>>4541740
Anybody got a gif or webm of Meryl exercising in her panties? I always rushed to the bathroom to catch her quickly so that she would wear them. Good times

>>4541740

>>4541734
There's also the rope segment where you can kick off the wall while moving diagonally and climb down simultaneously off the top of my head. Can't really pull that off in a 2D game.

>>4541760
Good lord, everyone on this board truly is underage or a brainlet. You could EASILY do that in 2D

I've played Battletoads dude. Rash isn't moving backwards or forwards to the camera, only horizontally and vertically.

>>4541116

>>4542096
YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH

>>4541721
are you an otaku?

Are MG1 and 2 worth playing?

>>4542443
Yes, same goes for the memed into oblivion Snake's Revenge, which is actually good too.

>>4542443
They play more like actual games.

>>4542443
The MSX2 version of MG1 is a legitimately great game that has aged very well. The NES version is a bastardized port. A lot of people like MG2 but I couldn't get into it at all, just didn't like the feel of the game but you might appreciate it more. I didn't enjoy Snake's Revenge either but it's been so long since I last played it, I remember the writing being a huge mess even for an NES game.

There's also Ghost Babel which is underrated as fuck, albeit kiddified. Legit my favourite Metal Gear spin-off, I think.

>>4542608
I should probably point out that Snake's Revenge and Ghost Babel aren't canon though so they can be skipped and it would be of no consequence

>>4542610
Do people actually care about the MGS games? I prefer to think they're all connected by dream/Hollywood logic so actual inconsistencies and retcons don't matter.

>>4542815
Sorry, should read "...about the canon of the MG games?*

>>4542815
Well they are movie games with terrible plot. Of course people are gonna care about story.

>>4542610
Ghost babel is at least as good as the MSX games, if not equal to MGS1

>>4542818
It's one of the first big franchises people "played" for the story rather than for the game itself, thus causing a decline in the medium since story-based games are designed so that even people that don't care about game mechanics can beat them (aka babbified).

>>4542938
True, MGS was the beginning of the decline in the game industry

>>4542948
That would be portal anon

>>4542958
>2007
>the beginning
Even MGS is a bit late to me lol

What are some old games which you consider being overrated and/or having aged badly?

>>4543108
lol you're persistent, anon. I guess you want this thread to get closed to kill MGS discussion. I'm not even a fan but I found this funny.

>>4543108
Final fantasy 7

>>4543120
I don't like that game at all but considering how much hate it gets here I don't know if it's overrated anymore. It certainly used to be, though.

>>4542938

This is why I prefer VR missions. It's all action without much cutscene stuff at all.

>>4542608
>The MSX2 version of MG1 is a legitimately great game that has aged very well.

Hello bizarro /vr/.

>>4543108
>aged?

What's with /vr/ and their hate for this game?

>>4543846
If a game has more cutscenes than gameplay time, it's automatically a piece of shit.

>>4543863
the result of a failed filmmaker and hack who has never had an original idea in his head

>>4543863
In your opinion.

>>4543846
>>4543929
It's called liking games and not movies with light interaction.

>>4543867
He was never a filmmaker and all his games really are games first. The cutscenes are all there to enhance the gameplay.

>>4544235
The game part ain't even half bad, it just sucks that the movie parts are so intertwined into it and happen to be unskippable. Oh well.

>>4544241
>unskippable
But they are skippable.

>>4544241
The game part is bad too. Literally any other stealth game ever made is better than MGS's stealth. Even the sneaking parts in Wind Waker and Shenmue are better.

>>4543846
game?

>>4544273
You're too hard on it. I like the arcade feel of MGS a lot.

>>4544273
Game's fine, the VR Missions disc are great.

Twin snakes wasn't balanced around the new aiming system and it made it too easy.

>>4544394
Play extreme game over if discovered no radar and then say that to my face fucker

>>4544394
So don’t use it brainlet

>>4544392
There is a newer one that shaves off +30mins

Metal Gear 2 isn't even on the NES, retard.

>>4544378
>the arcade feel of MGS
I never thought I'd read something like this. You can't be serious. Either that or you just aren't really into arcade games to tell.

>>4544790
He got the platform wrong, but that doesn't invalidate the rest of his argument.

MGS is the best ps1 game.

PLAY VR MISSIONS

>>4545818
Not even the best of its ilk for the system, lad.

>>4543121
It's not. Never was. Was always a great game.
