It was that magical time where nukes were seen as the solution for all problems. The problem in this instance was "How do we give our troops more firepower in case the Russians start over running us in Western Europe?". And as for Snake surviving even a small-yield tactical nuke, we also could take the terrain into account: the area is pretty mountainous and uneven, so it could be that the explosion got contained by the mountains and hills. This could've also shielded him from the flash of the explosion, but somehow I doubt Kojima thought it that far.

Danaru posted:It probably doesn't matter how big the nuke is when you stand up and just stare at the explosion for the entire duration of it. Snake wasn't sent to Tselinoyarsk for his intelligence. If it's in the game, there's an almost 100% chance it's real!

*comes running in panting* was...was...someone having questions about Godzilla...??? The Crappy US one that Dan is talking about was in 1998. In 2004 a Godzilla movie was made, Godzilla: Final Wars. It's the last of the Japanese made films and is pretty action-packed, and does indeed feature the Japanese Godzilla beat the crap out of the terrible American one, as Grace asks.. It's got a pretty whackadoo plot but I love it. Also, Para-Medic's comments about waiting until 2004 to see the original Japanese cut of Gojira was because at the time, the movie was FINALLY making it to American shores, and doing art theater tours. Before that it was very hard to see legit in this hemisphere. (I had seen it in 99 at a convention on a bootleg tape myself). In the sequence right before the first aid bit where you briefly have R1 accessible to look around, iirc you can look all the way to one of the sides (perhaps the left?) and see The Sorrow's corpse just hanging out. I want to say this is the same river where the boss battle with him occurs.

The guy who directed Godzilla: Final Wars, Ryuhei Kitamura, also did the cutscenes for Twin Snakes. The action scenes with the human characters in Final Wars are just as ridiculous as that game.

The human character stuff is more ridiculous than anything the giant rubber suit monsters do in that film. Final Wars also has Don Frye and his majestic mustache in it. Now of course, Godzilla has pulled off some crazy stunts in the past. This isn't quite backflipping off a nuke, but... yeah. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOhlfnnX1po Godzilla vs. Hedorah (Godzilla vs. Smog Monster) is a weird movie.

There's a scene where he plays kaiju soccer against King Seesar, a monster that looks like those chinese lion puppy things. The ball is Anguirus, basically an ankylosaur monster. Rodan tries to help but gets in the way. There's also the Gigan fight where he ends up cutting off his own head because he's a dumbass, and then the badguys bring him back with motherfuckin CHAINSAW ARMS.

Has it really been that long since the lovely one?  Godzilla's always been one of those weird things where like, I've only seen the worst Godzilla movie ever, but I can still recognize and name off a poo poo ton of the monsters that appear in it. I always liked King Ghidorah for being a loving three headed dragon, and Mothra because giant moths are adorable

I always eat a game over after the encounter with Ocelot. Because dammit, it's just not MGS3 if Campbell doesn't yell at Big Boss for creating a time paradox.

MGS3 was the first MGS game I played and while I had some familiarity with the series when I played 3 but I didn't fully appreciate the story, which is easily the best in any MGS game. Having seen LPs of all the other games it great to see all the setup and references to the other games, and just how big of a tsundere Ocelot (who's full rank is probably Major-Pain-In-Snake's) is for Big Boss.

Honestly, the story for MGS3 holds up perfectly even without the story of the previous games, knowing about the others is just icing on the cake. I pity anyone who played MGS4 as their first Metal Gear game.

I feel I should mention this but even with lightning powers you can't really do much firing a naked bullet. The bullet casing would just kind of pop.

  Let's Play Metal Gear Solid 3 Episode 3 - From Zero to Gut-Punch The Boss is such a JERK The SR-71 was made in 1966, so I have no doubt that rocket drone is real. The SR-71 is loving awesome by the way, look that poo poo up. It's idea of evasive maneuvers is "go faster than the bullets because gently caress you I can do that." Session 2 reached just after the Pain, before reaching Graniny Gorky.  Vote here for Session 3's drinking condition!

Why would they put the prevention of WW3 in the hands of Snake? They say he's the only person who can kill the boss, but the only thing we've seen him do is get his rear end handed to him on literally every occasion, what's more, the person he is sent to kill was the one who beat him senseless. I know he eventually becomes the world's greatest soldier, but his showing in the Virtuous Mission should make him the absolute last choice for a mission of this magnitude.

The best part is, the Virtuous Mission was his first mission with FOX, so going into operation Snake Eater, he and his unit have failed 100% of the missions they've been assigned. I want to imagine that off screen The Boss has been putting people into coma's left and right, and Snake's the only one besides the Cobra Unit who's still able to stand properly. I can appreciate The Boss basing her hiring process on who can withstand the most dunks at a time.

Horses aren't taboo to eat... Well they were for a while during this administration (I think they finally got rid of it in 2013) they kinda hosed up the horse industry in general. But like before some sort of regulation that banned the consumption of horse meat- it was fairly booming and they weren't considered sacred.

... wait, you were drinking beer? The capitalists beverage? Forget what I wrote up there. That's advice only for vodka-drinking, communist like- minded comrades!  I always figured out that ADAM was Ocelot: appears at the facility, is close to Volgin, and is the only other gun nerd who could've procured the 1911 that Naked Snake spergs so much over in the next part. And I kind of suspect EVA was actually Raikov, but it's just a theory of mine.

The drone carrier SR-71 is the M21, and it didn't work very well. It basically was supposed to work pretty much exactly like they showed in the cutscene, maybe not rolling over but basically the same.

Was the coyote roadkill or hunted? If it was roadkill the taste might have been due to car bits stuck in the meat.
