I still think, with all my Peace Walker knowledge from these videos alone, that the cardboard tanks are loveboxes where the second player gets to shoot at dudes.

(Also Coldman, what are you talking about with India having Nukes in the 70s?!)

Because India had nukes in the seventies - which most everyone forgot about until Pakistan developed their own nukes in the late nineties.

Let's Play MGS Peace Walker Vs Op - Lake Fight

This one's a bit different, we actually did a VS Op before Episode 11 which I uh, sorta forgot to finish editing. We went into it completely blind except that I googled whether or not Fultons could be used in VS Ops like they could in MGO 3. The answer I found was that 'fultons are useless in multiplayer', which apparently meant 'you can't recruit people with it' rather than what I thought, which was 'they're not usable in multiplayer'. The first person to backseat me on that I swear I'll hold a grudge against for the rest of my life. :colbert:

Grace and I are absolutely the kind of people who would pick Oddjob in Goldeneye multiplayer, but only against each other. You should have seen when we played Mario Party, I was pretty sure I was going to be killed. BUT I WOULD HAVE DIED A WINNER.

Sadly that was while Grace was in Canada, and we didn't have the hardware at the time to record it. Sad since Grace's reaction the fourth time I stole a star from him was pretty great :v:

Reenact your Mario Party reactions with Pinkie Chan and Lesser-Kun.

It will probably be pretty difficult to make them strangle eachother with their stubby plush arms, though :v:

Let's Play MGS Peace Walker Episode 17 - Whirlwind Tour

We did a bunch of grinding and I edited it to be watchable. This also gets a bit podcast-ey, but we also don't make any major progress. If you're only here for the game and not for us being idiots, you'll hate this.

This session was over three hours of footage. I cut it down significantly



IT WAS FUN THOUGH

Uhhh episode's going to be going up tomorrow instead of today because I had to get stuck with a bunch of needles, then when I finally got out of the hospital, I had just enough time to edit the video and set it to encode, and now I'm at work. Should be able to get it uploaded when I get home.

Probably should have said something earlier but, well, needles

Let's Play MGS Peace Walker Episode 18 - Alligator and Wombat's Second Honeymoon

Sure hope you guys like hearing me ramble, because we hit heavy Liquid Dan slightly before this episode started.

This episode is a bit of cleaning up, we clean up the cassettes we haven't heard, then clear out a couple of the side ops that happened while Snake was in jerk jail.

If you haven't already fought Peace Walker again, I would HIGHLY recommend playing until you've unlocked better explosives via side ops. In particular, you're going to want better chaff grenades.

Making the Boss's sacrifice look dumb and overwrought was one of the things Peace Walker did for the continuity. Another was showing that Big Boss was actually a massive tool.

Y'all shut your mouth this is a very emotional time for Grace and I :colbert: Our mom got turned into a computer who's trying to nuke the planet, tensions are high

Also as a side note, since I have no shame or dignity, Grace and I are playing Tenchu 3 in another thread, and we're using the same drinking game as we did for the other Metal Gear games. It's fun as hell and also I start blowing it hardcore, so it's all the Dan and Grace you've come to expect

Dan you're becoming popular. You're the second result for "Peace Walker Episode 21"! Either that or no one besides a few other dudes actually got to 21 episodes.

EDIT: Side note: With this part of the story over, I can finally bring this up. The Boss suffered brain damage upon re-entry during her trip to space, and thus lost about half her brain's functions (with her other half taking over). The World's Greatest Soldier only had half a functioning brain, and was a completely different woman from her time in WW2 and her possible relationship with Strangelove, which set off the latter's quest for revenge.

So David Hayter the voice of Snake lent his voice to a point and click adventure game called Deponia Doomsday where he plays an older version the main protagonist. The first inventory puzzle involves making an "improvised flamethrower" with a spray can and a lighter.

Actually blowing up a nuclear bomb that is about to launch isn't the worst idea. Nukes rely on specifically shaped centrifuges which facilitate fission. These are carefully made to ensure the nuclear material splits as much of its own atoms as possible. Damaging it warps the centrifuge, which makes the reaction a lot less efficient and less effective. So if it does launch, the explosion will be smaller. Not the pro-est strat for defusing a nuke, but if you find yourself in that situation, you're probably not gonna be choosy :v:

The only issue with blowing up the nuke is that you could vaporize the nuclear material. Inhaling that stuff isn't good for your health and it will likely float around the immediate area for a bit. Still a better outcome than a nuclear explosion though.

Holy poo poo Kojima your loving explanation about AI and brains :lol:

Now that you're past the first ending, do you want some hints about how to unlock some of the more obscure optional content?
