Yeah, even the voiceovers have that anime feel to them. BioShock and GTA feel more as though they're trying to ape film by comparison.Originally posted by Spatial101 View PostAgain, having had more time to reflect ,that's what I got from it too. To an extent it was giving me the same vibe I get from a really good Anime story but with added interactivity.
As you'd expect from a game from an Eastern dev company it has a lot of social and cultural traditions embedded in it. There's an inherent awkwardness about some aspects of it, some of which fit the very definition of lost in translation. A good example is the moment between
The game is still dogged in parts by corny dialogue and some annoying (albeit rare instances) of terrible voice acting (Otacon's crying just made me want to slap his head off his shoulders), but I found all these tend to become insignificant against the plus points that far outweighed them.
I do think that how much you get out of the game will depend on how much you liked the others and how much of a fan you are of Snake's adventures.
I said before it's release that I expected nothing less than fan service, and got it in spades.
I agree that you get much more out of the game depending on how involved you've been with the series over the years. Although every Metal Gear has social commentary, it's not what I enjoy it for. I enjoy it for the abstract insanity, the attention to detail, the fact that the game (more so than ever before when you consider how narrative has changed) feels completely different to anything else out there.Comment

It's certainly abstract - there's not many games that have a shaved monkey smoking a cigarette.
I'm just glad his did piss himself this timeOriginally posted by Zero9X View PostOtacon crying is a tradition.
You should remember him in MGS2. Hilarious!

Probably the worst thing that could ever happen to a girl. Getting killed by a MK-II.
I loved the Monkey. He had me grinning from ear to ear whenever he was on screen. He was super awesome!Comment

I think the DS3 work in the game is amazing, its subtle but the best rumble in a game yet imohComment

The rumble at some parts i think works really well too actually.
Especially noticable when there is a helicopter overhead, the controller seems to match really well with the rythm and sound of it.Comment
