Good racing games have guns on the cars or let you otherwise use weapons and items while ideally not even racing. Vigilante 8 Second Offense remains the good non-kart car game.

If you made Gran Tourismo for guns and then added it to a Gran Tourismo game some people would never do anything else again. And that's almost certainly a good thing.

Games where you race cool hovercrafts, pod racers, anti gravity motorcycles, or magical go-karts that fire turtle shells while going through half-pipes, loop de loops, and jumping over bottomless pits, all while power sliding and never letting go of the accelerator, will always be superior to games where you drive some dumb European vanity car around in a circle on some flat asphalt. If I wanted to responsibly drive on pavement I’d just go to work in the morning.

That's a tough one because Wipeout is indeed the best racing series and it has weapons but it's not the best racing series because of the weapons.QuarkJets posted:and uh i forget how the rest goes

My pitch is Wave Racer with sea turtle shells, corexit shrimps, exxon slicks, and a cloak of crows that dives underwater and teleports under another waver in a torrent of hellfire.

MGS2 is my favorite game of all time. It just masterfully hosed with everyone on every conceivable level and was still an extremely polished game with a compelling and thought provoking narrative. For my unpopular opinion, I think that Peace Walker and TPP are complete phoned in crap.

Metal gear solid 2 sucks poo poo, Kojima doesn't deserve praise for being out there and being anti fan or avant garde, he needed told "no hideo, just do the thing you are good at that people love". He must have listened because snake eater is the high point of the series

I played MGS2 when like MGS4 was being made so I had none of that "hosed with" feeling. It was just a good MGS game about being an MGS game.

I played 2 well after 4 came out and somehow never got spoiled on anything or even knew Raiden existed despite having internet access, so the whole game was kinda mind blowing for teenage me.

I'll never understand those pure racing games like Forza and Gran Turismo. The Burnout series is fun because the whole point is to make the other cars crash

I remember being 12 and watching the end cutscene of MGS2, not knowing really wtf he was talking about and having to piss so insanely bad and you couldn't pause it and it was like 20 miutes long. My brother got me a Raiden action figure before I played the game and I was like "Wtf who is this guy?" and he was like "ehhh don't worry about it yet." I played that game like five times and got all of the dogtags, games are awesome when you're 12.

Gran Turismo and wipeout are both fun For those who ~~don't understand~~, getting a faster time around the track is the good part whether you are in a car or a hovercraft

Caesar Saladin posted:MGS 2 in general has so much cool stuff in it. So many people wanted an awesome cool guy snake game and he didn't want to make that and instead made a totally unhinged game that pissed tons of people off. Kojima is a weirdo who desperately wants to be an auteur. So he packs his games full of distinctive, meta, and often meaningless elements that are still neat when you know about them. And he packs his stories the same way and they're godawful because he has absolutely no talent there which is why we get superlong exposition dumps, lovely attempts to pretend whatever bizarre thing he included is "realistic", and philosophy by the guy who got really stoned before going to the introductory course but thinks he got the gist of it. Kojima the game designer is cool, Kojima the writer and wannabe film director is awful, and unfortunately he thinks that it's the other way around.

Easy solution, just get a pair of glasses and tap a small strip of paper that says "health 100% " to them at the bottom. Then you can go into what ever grungy industrial infrastructure you want just like you do in video games! Plus while you do, you'll always be feeling really healthy!!!

He should definitely be a little edgy and hosed up after what happened to him, but he made Ocelot not possessing a dude through his arm seem positively mundane with how much of a flip switch he takes. If that game wasn't so fun and silly, it would bother me more but instead I'll fight the president.

I got Jak II a couple years later and god drat was it jarring. Although, sticking with the game Jak gets way less growly and angsty after the first 30 minutes of the game and it mellows out into a slightly gritty action comedy.
