dbminter Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 I am no longer certain of the mental states behind the creators of the Metal Gear Solid games. Take these images from Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence. Now, I thought the purpose of camoflague paint was to hide, to blend in, and NOT advertise you're an enemy agent with the U.S. army: http://www.konami.com/gs/uploads/JZw081205201224.jpg OKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY... http://www.konami.com/gs/uploads/txo081205201225.jpg GOOD GOD! IT'S A WALKING BOX! http://www.konami.com/gs/uploads/oaK081205201226.jpg
lfcrule1972 Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 I think the first and second pics are the unlockable extra's for completing the game mate and the walking box is a disguise so that you can use enemy transports to get to different missions or areas. Which game is that from ? I have Sons of liberty and Snake Eater but they have a habit of releasing a slightly different version some time after the original release with "subsistence" tacked on.....

Oh, I am quite familiar with the game series. I owned the first NES Metal Gear when it was new. (Subsistence will give me the first chance to play the real Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2.) In fact, I have a "record" in The Twin Galaxies Book Of Video Game And Pinball Records for Metal Gear 2: Snake's Revenge. (Long story.) Also, you can get Sniper Wolf's dogs to piss on you in the box in Metal Gear Solid. Those pics are from... Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence. MGS 2: Sons Of Liberty had Substance tacked on to the end of its re-release, though. Generally, the extras in the R1 packages of the re-releases were ones tacked on to the original R1 release when released in PAL format.
lfcrule1972 Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 I like the little extra's in games - have to admit at laughing like an idiot when Wolf's dogs pee'd on my cardboard box tho ! I seem to remember getting pissed on by a guard during a part of Son's of Liberty too ! Getting told off for shooting the seagulls in the same game was also funny - shoot them enough and they crap on you !
dbminter Posted May 18, 2006 Author Posted May 18, 2006 Oh, man, I love so many of the "dumb" things the MGS games let you engage in. Like one of my favorites: switch to the remote controlled missile and use its first person camera mode. Then, fire and guide the rocket in a loop pattern BACK at yourself and watch as your strike yourself. Oh, getting Meryl to blush in embarassment after staring at her then and THEN busting a cap in her ass! "What are you doing?" BLAM! Oh, and you wouldn't believe I'd be laughing to tears pulling the remote controlled missile prank on Meryl, too?
dbminter Posted May 18, 2006 Author Posted May 18, 2006 Getting told off for shooting the seagulls in the same game was also funny - shoot them enough and they crap on you ! And the rats from the first MGS: "Snake! What are you doing?! We don't need a goddamn rat catcher!"
lfcrule1972 Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 I had forgotten about taking pics of Meryl until she got really embarrassed It's those things that really make you laugh in a game and also keep you playing to find them all !!
