Weihenstephaner is amazing, but for some reason it's only good when it's on tap. I had some at Wurstkuche (German sausage place in LA, highly recommended) and it was loving amazing. But when I buy it in the bottles, it's not the same.

Weihenstephaner kristall, even bottled, is really loving good though and I recommend it.

An even bigger shame is that it was paired with absolutely terrible levels and nowhere to use the slow crawl.

The first level was pretty great and had some legitimately good parts. The second was sorta alright too.

Yeah the rest were pretty bad.

I saw a dude run Metal Gear Ac!d about 1/3 of the way through. It was like someone decided to take MGS2's Snake Tales and put it on...well, acid. Seriously, you are not prepared.

I have personally seen a single swig of Bud Light Lime induce nausea in a sober person. Because of how absolutely foul it was, not because of the trace amounts of alcohol they put in.

Fair warning, he's a lovely person who thinks "in the kitchen" jokes are the height of comedy.

I was serious about mine. They come up often enough to make a drinking game, but not often enough to cause alcohol poisoning.

How to (pretend to) be pro at MGR: Tap Blade Mode trigger after finishing every combo. If you're pro, this lets you cancel the longass animation on certain moves. If you're not, it looks like you at least know what you're doing.

Hitting things on various levels of elevation when you have a camera view like this is disorienting as gently caress and the controls don't help. MGS2 luckily alleviates this.

To answer Grace's question a while back, no that was not the show Dan watched. He was talking about Sonic Underground. You were talking about Sonic SATAM.

Also, for the record, there's one thing Dark Id didn't cover in his LP of Ghost Babel--the game has a vr missions mode. :shepicide:

Why do they have so many "get sighted and fail" objectives given how finicky the controls are?

The water laser is actually based on a real life thing, although filtered through Kojima's mind: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_jet_cutter

Seraphic Neoman
Jul 19, 2011


There's a theory on the internet that Kojima never intended the events of MGS2 to be real. They were supposed to have happened in VR, with Raiden being a Guinea pig for the S3. Unfortunately people took umbrage with MGS2 so Kojima had to say "nope it was actually all real" and MGS4 became what it is.

Seraphic Neoman
Jul 19, 2011


We already use floating cameras to take videos of marriage vows. I'm pretty sure the military already has a batch of spy camera drones.

Has Kojima ever tried to make a statement about drone use in wars? I know the Gekko sort of went in that direction, but that was more about asymmetric warfare and less about drones.
Cause drone use really has almost no rules and makes the US look really bad.

Choco1980 posted:

Also also, you showed a few of the bombs off early--they're totally active then and can be detonated with bullets to game over if you're dumb.

I'm no bomb disposal expert but I'm pretty sure C4 doesn't work like that.

EDIT: Yup.

C-4 Wikipedia article posted:

C-4 cannot be detonated by a gunshot or by dropping it onto a hard surface. It does not explode when set on fire or exposed to microwave radiation.[8] Detonation can only be initiated by a combination of extreme heat and a shockwave, such as when a detonator inserted into it is fired.

What I'm trying to say is that even considering that, Grace is way, way, WAY better than Rose.

One of the things Colonel would say is the first Idea Spy 2/5 from Ghost Babel.

It also gets referenced in a weird loving way in MGS4.
