the MGSV stream is showing gameplay for TPP and holy poo poo it looks good.

I've never played any MGS (need to get around to that) but so far it seems in MGSV you can distract the enemy with an inflatable version of yourself, then sneak up behind them, attach a balloon to them and launch them into the air. It's jokier than I was expecting.

MGS was always pretty jokey.

That and horribly written, but that's what makes MGS special.

No one will ever agree on this question, but if you're interesting in getting ready for MGS5, the only ones you need to play are MGS3 and Peace Walker. If you want to play them all, play in order of release because each one gets a lot of game play refinements, but MGS3 is a prequel that requires no previous knowledge and 5 is a direct follow up.

Play them in order. If you have a gamecube and can play twin snakes instead of 1 do that.

You can also skip MGS:POOPS for psp. 5 is basically the continuation of 3 and Peace Walker.

The order goes 3, Peace Walker, 5, 1, 2, then 4. But just play them the order they came out.

Great cheers for that, I can get them all pretty cheap on PSN it seems so will add them to my backlog of games. This stream is totally selling me on the franchise.

If you can play Peace Walker on PS3 or Vita do that. The 2nd stick makes it about a million times better than playing it on a PSP.

Yeah I can do it on either, so will probably do it on PS3. I'll have to play the first one on PSVita though.

Theres a puzzle at the beginning of Fez annoyed me enough on 360 that I never went back to it and it's doing it all over again.

I'm pretty sure it's this one except there are only 4 cubes in my game making it seemingly impossible to complete. What the heck am I missing here? I've been trying to make the shapes with 4 cubes for 15 minutes and it just does not work.

Just got done with a quick 3 player game of Fibbage and holy hell this game is pretty great.

It's played exclusively from a smartphone / tablet, you just jump onto the page on your phone browser, type in the room code and your name and you're in. It will be cool as hell to play next time some jerks come over. A nice break from Cars against Humanity, anyways.

The games are pretty quick, maybe 10-15 minutes at a pop.








Oops, sorry, what I meant to say was:

Destiny sucks / is the greatest and is too much like / not enough like Diablo 3.

Others have answered this question well, so I'm just gonna focus on the worst course of action. From personal experience, if you are ever in a position where you end up playing MGS2 first, Do not, under any circumstances, tell the game this honestly when it asks. It takes this as a cue to skip the tanker chapter at the beginning, and you spend the entire game even more clueless as to what is going on.

So from that Silent Hills trailer, does that mean PT really was representative of the final product? I sure hope so because PT was fantastic and terrifying and Silent Hills looks to be more of the same, which is a very good thing.

I think the Feb 6th release is worldwide, but it's probably just the Asian release.

I'd say no, in the horror department sure, but not the same with the plot and gameplay probably.

I think if they retain the horror aspect it'll still be fine, but the gameplay part would benefit from change compared to how gameplay was in P.T.

If they released a full $60 title with P.T.'s gameplay complete with asinine-rear end puzzles, I'd buy the poo poo out of it.

I mean, that's not gonna happen, but it would be great.

That's an interesting design choice. I think I am going to start with 3 because I got the HD set off PSN, and from what Surlaw said, and have 1 on my Vita for next time I go travelling / am stuck in the office on a Sunday with nothing to do.

I didn't need to install drivers for it, I just configured the controller in Emuhawk. The problem doesn't seem to be with my drivers, the problem is with the controller unattaching itself from the PC so it can try communicating with the PS4 in the next room. I tried with another controller, this one is working and I'm not sure what's different.
