"Things that needs to change"
Lol.
Anyway, I think it should be set several years after MGS4, with new characters, with maybe a cameo or two from the old guard. It needs to be free of the web of current plots and subplots.
The amount of articles on this is hilarious. Seriously, just play some fucking games and quit whining. People seem to have forgotten about gaming in the PS1 and PS2 era. Bunch of fucking crybabies.
Bit late. Anyway, I got the special edition on launch day, so I got all the DLC.
And MGS1 came out two years before Deus Ex.
He seems to have gotten a less smarmy expression in each game.
HELL YES.
He's busy kicking the shit out of that asshole Blake.
I thought original Alyx looked attractive enough, these shitty mods just fuck it up.
The Japanese demo was much better, it actually had a story section just like the demo for Yakuza 3.
Personally, though I think it was a nice distraction, the orphanage section lasted way too long. Glad this one starts off with a bang. Not much has changed, but what has changed has made it much better. The fighting style of each character feels incredibly distinct, story's as gripping as ever, and there's loads of distractions. Can't say I'm looking forward to doing batting and golf again, though. Curse my obsession with getting 100% in Yakuza games.
PS2 version didn't look that bad. Sure, it wasn't as good looking as the Wii version, and the cutscenes were pixellated as hell, but it still looked great considering the hardware.
Learn to read, jackass.
Just wait for Super Duper Street Fighter X Tekken Turbo Arcade Edition 2.
The cutscenes in Uncharted 2 are pre-rendered, which is why alternate skins and such don't show up.
Why not just leave them as is? It's rarely a good idea to try to expand on characters who were already well fleshed out in the first place. Some things are best left untouched. Just look at Vamp. He was mysterious in MGS2, and a fucking joke in MGS4 (his powers are explained by fucking nanomachines).
Leave behind the current canon and start anew, maybe several years after MGS4. No need to add in more plot threads. Making more and more prequels would just give us more retcons and complicate shit even more.
@Gaffyh - Thing is, while the story in MGS4 is good, it doesn't come close to the previous games, with poor tying up of plot threads (NANOMACHINES) and irritatingly indulgent cutscenes that were a step back from MGS3's more balanced cutscene to gameplay ratio.
The first and third games are my favourite in terms of plot, but the second and fourth games get needless convoluted a lot of the time. Still better than most games out there, but people praise MGS4's story like it's the second coming.
Played Star Ocean 4, great combat system, but terrible fucking story and characters, with shit voice acting and bad controls (large analogue stick dead zones, annoying camera that zooms in or out if you want to just look vertically). Also, the general look of the game make me feel like throwing up. Not sure why exactly.
Yeah, the cutscenes in MGS4 tended to go on and on. The ones in MGS1 and 3 were much more straight to the point.
But have you played any of the other games? "Robot guy with high heels?" Really?
@BiggCMan - Yeah, they were done well, but I disliked how they were so stretched out. "Metal Gear?" "Metal Gear!", etc. It is possible to have a great story without an over-abundance of cutscenes. They could do it like Uncharted and m...
