Yeah these games are timeless. I'm almost 25 and I've had my snes since I was 9, and my 64 since I was 10 or 11..and still play them more than any other game. Some of the games like Mario World I've beaten countless times. You're right man these games really are timeless..that's why they've held up so well, after 20 and in some cases almost thirty years

Yeah for real man! These games are always going to be good, no matter what. They have held up so well, and it's like even playing them now it still as refreshing and fun to play as it was the first time many moons ago.

We need a classic gaming thread in here somewhere, I can talk about the golden age for days

I've also played 2 and 3. Of those two, I really appreciated 3 for the direction they took the gameplay, and the complex story, that tied in really well with history. Even if some of the bosses were a bit over the top cartoonish, I still loved some of them, like the Sorrow and the Boss. In fact, while MGS1 may be my favorite. 3 has my favorite ending. If I watch that ending, more likely than not I'll cry.


"Snake, history will ever know what she did. No one will ever learn the truth. Her story... her debriefing, will endure only in your heart [...]She was a true patriot"

So powerful.

ps I tried to hide that with spoiler tags but idk how, cause i'm still a n00b. So i cut it down, a bit, trying to take out spoilery things

I never had a Ps3 so I haven't played 4 yet unfortunately. I'm such a sucky MGS fan haha :[

There probably would have been more if Hideo could have fit them on the discs (after all... It was 2 discs for an 8 hour game). Still, even if you didn't like that I think the gameplay mechanics for Guns of the Patriots are the best... The octocamo thing was genius and made the whole thing very smooth.

There's still plenty of story in Peace Walker, but I think you'll probably like it because its toned down a lot (but again... Probably just because Hideo couldn't fit anymore onto a PSP disc). My only complaint about that one is the missions got a bit repetitive. You definitely need to play it before 5 comes out, though... It sets up a great deal.

I really wish I could have gotten into No More Heroes though, but I just could not get the hang of the Wiimote and as such couldn't get past one of the bosses. One of these days I'll get a non-retarded controller for the Wii just so I can say I beat it. Are you excited for his new game, Killer Is Dead?

But yeah, once you do get past the first level the game really opens up and you kind of get into a good groove with it. It's funny too cause I borrowed the game from a friend and when I hung out with him the other day he admitted that he didn't make it past the first level himself.
