Solid Snake is a man of few words. When he does talk, his sentences often consists of repeating something he just heard about or saw in a questioning manner. But at the same time, he is also a character with a surprising capacity for self-reflection, his own ideas about morality, and, from time to time, a philosopher’s attitude. These qualities are displayed in the following fifteen quotes, that expose Snake's personality or show his beliefs about the world.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD have been delisted from digital stores without warning.
Stupid headline. Should state that they are being updated or discontinued. This makes the crazy people that only read headlines think it some kind of conspiracy to take away peoples already purchased games.
If you want to all of a sudden own them now and haven't played them yet because a remastered is coming out, shame on you. I can't believe people are complaining about this 15 years later when it was bound to happen anyway. "A new remaster is out, quick, I'd better buy the original from the shop."
Gamers: "Physical? who needs physical? everyone knows that digital online games are the future. stop living in the past. we don't need no stinking disc drive"
Same gamers: "How dare the delist a digital game that I own!!!!"
And? What is your point?
Same gamers: "How dare the retailers to delist (quit selling) a physical game that I own!!!!"
I think you just read the headline and don't know how dilisting works with Sony. It's common knowledge that:
"Players who already bought the games will still have them in their library and can download and play them as usual."
So again, what is your point?
A quote from Hideo Kojima brings up the notion of the wavering quality of modern day gaming, and a deconstruction of what constitutes a good game and artistic value follow suit.
Hideo writes: "We experimented with magnetic motion capture in "Metal Gear Solid: Integral", and in MGS2, we adopted optical motion capture for the first time. Was the shooting done about 25 years ago? Well, back then, everything was trial and error, but every day felt fresh and exciting."
His most memorable line for me, was his conversation with Otacon near the end of MGS 4. When he brought up switching discs again. That was hilariously genius.
My favorite quote made the list!
"I’m a shadow, one that no light will shine on. As long as you follow me, you will never see the day."
EDIT:
I loved the exchange between he and Otacon as someone above mentioned as well.
"Snake! You forgot these!"
"Hm...no, thanks. I'm quitting."
"Snake..."
"These things'll kill ya!"
You've got a great butt!!!!!
MGS4 man... Really need to play it again. As silly and convoluted and outright ridiculous as Metal Gear's plots usually are, you just gotta love the characters and dialogue.
For some reason one quote that gave me goosebumps was when he yelled at Solidus; "NO!! That is not Solid Snake!" The combination of playing as Raiden and knowing Pliskin is Snake just made that single line all the more badass.
