Cool Podcast. As for GTA4, I haven’t gotten that far into it, maybe like 12 missions? What made the game impressing is the online game play, I’d wish they improve on it on a larger, easy to manage system. Who wouldn’t want to play zombie mode in Liberty City?

I know what you mean Simon, there’s some big games out on the PS3 that make me eager to play them (i.e. Little Big Planet and Uncharted) but in terms of games I would buy the system to play, Heavy Rain is way up there, I’m pumped for that game.

Great cast guys, as always.

After taking a look at Heavy Rain, I’m pretty sure that’s the title that will convince me to get my own PS3.

I do agree that I was alone in defending Metal Gear, but that’s part of the allure of the show, haha. To their credit, no one else was really a die hard fan like me.

@Chris

Good points. I hated how twin snakes was redone. If Kojima had to redo them… i shutter at the thought of the original direction…
Well back on subject, mgs4 has fan service written all over it, if you missed/didnt enjoy the originals then itll be pretty hard to understand mgs4. My point being is that without know parts/scenes from previous itll be kinda hard to find any of the characters(Eva, Zero, Naomi, Otacon, etc.) to be compeling. Damn! I gata send in a Email lol! I know you guys arent bashing the game, its that i dont like how you guys left the subject. I gave my buddies a listen, and they agreed. It felt… to negative. Its like if i said Halo had horrible back tracking, and then i talked about nothing else but how bad it is. I hope i come off clear, and not like a raging fanboy lol.

Any ways, keep up the good work fellas
Laterzz!

PS: do you guys have a direct download link/rss feed? i dont have an ipod.

“The AC¡D series were not made by Kojima”

I said that!

In regards to my comments on the cutscenes in Twin Snakes, this is the press release at the announcement of the game:

“Twin Snakes was first announced in 2003 by Nintendo of America, confirming that Silicon Knights would be developing under the guidance of legendary developers, Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima and Mario creator Shigeru Miyamo its cut scenes were developed in-house at Konami and directed by Japanese film director Ryuhei Kitamura, reflecting his dynamic signature style, utilizing bullet-time photography and choreographed gunplay extensively. Kitamura created many of the games cinematics to look identical to those in the original Metal Gear Solid, but upon inspection Hideo Kojima had him redo them.”

What I was referring to is despite the fact that Kojima didn’t direct the new scenes, he certainly had a say in them, and chose to go forward.

Thanks a ton for your comments, by the way – we’re glad you enjoyed the show. Please register and grab an avatar; we’d love to hear you input in the future.

First time listener here and i can say that i like the show, you guys got good podcast chemistry, keep it up. My only gripe would be how wrong you guys could be about the mgs series, well not wrong but misslead. The AC¡D series were not made by Kojima, the Twin Snakes version was done by Silicon Knights in which Kojima had only a little to do with and the scenes where Directed by the guy who did the Japan cult movie VERSUS; Who also did the choreagraphy for games like DMC3 and 4, you see the connections? MGS4 is convoluded to those who dont understand the MGS series as a whole. Id say whole heartly that if you havent played mgs3, then you wont enjoy 4. SPOILER AHEAD without having any connections with the characters in 3, you wont appreciate 4: Paramedic = Dr. Clark, Sigint = Armstech Chief, Major Zero = The Patriots. Id go more indepth as to why but maybe in an email. MGS4 is fan service written all over it, from long codec to long cinematic to comedic relief. Johny doesnt have SOP. ill email the rest lol
