Thunderbolt Games: Metal Gear Solid Touch Review

Metal Gear Solid Touch isn't a bad game, but only in comparison to other App Store products. With the media constantly pushing for the idea of the iPhone as a definite contender in the handheld console market, it's hard to not be disappointed when one of the biggest franchises in history ends up nothing more than a gallery shooter. If developers want to push the iPhone as a serious gaming device, they need to start treating it like one.

And will not ever downgrade the experience in the future.

and don't mean to downgrade MGS ever again, which includes plans to port future installments to the Xbox 360.

The sad thing is is that this game really is not that bad and its fun to just pick up and play. Its just a point, zoom, and tap shooter but it forces you to test your reflexes and it really shouldnt be taken seriously.
Its just quick gaming fix and nothing more.

I bought MGS Touch as soon as it was available on AppStore and I was hugely disappointed. It's not a bad game, it just isn't MGS, i mean they could have named it anything else and it would have been fine, but this is not MGS plus the price is way too much for whats being offered here. There alot better games available on AppStore for much lower price.

I'm still surprised people expected so much from this.

Did Kojima have anything to do with this? If not, then it just shows you how useless Konami is without him.

Probably down to the high cost of gaming. Controllers and racing wheels can cost as much as consoles.

This is why there will always be competition in gaming. The possibilities to make huge profits is just too enticing.

Pokémon Go Championship Winner Title Revoked for ‘Unsportsmanlike Conduct’

The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.

There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.

Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
