Why is Metal Gear so memetic? I have never played any of the games, only watched the cutscenes of the first game as if they were a movie. The whole premise is stupid and unrealistic...and yet, there's as strange charm to them that makes you love it.

It's almost as if it were some kind of video game.
Unique characters, intricate plot, deep symbolism, mesmerizing music, nanomachines son.

Because they combine both fiction with reality in a plausible way. That middle ground between fantasy and realism makes the series unique.
Great games series, I played the all except the last one.

If you went into MGRR expecting solid stealth gameplay you fucked up.

You just don't understand Monsoon. What he's talking about is some top tier philosophy. Cheesy, sure, but fun as fuck.

The Metal Gear is pretty memetastic in itself but MGR:R is a special case. The whole game is a meme. There isn't a single line of dialog that's not been memed to death.

What the fuck is going on in that webmd?
Hijacking this thread to ask an important question
Is there any video game character that can defeat this motherfucker ?

It's america seen through the eyes of the japanese, which is ultimately more ludicrous and fantastic than how americans view themselves.

Raiden
>>321632745
did you not play the game ? he's fucking invincible
>>321633060
Yeah but Raiden has a sword imbued with anti-invincibility magic.
>>321633060
He only yells that he's invincible second before Raiden jumps at his back ignoring frontal reactive-armor shield and slashing his back

>All this butthurt

HOW ABOUT THAT QUIET SFM PORN?
>>321627069
Splinter Cell?
>>321635960
Huh.....
>>321624758
>last boss fight
I haven't had so much fun in a long while, I didnt even have an issue with the cutscenes. Press X to punch was great.

How about you OP? Are you mematic?Cuz you're full of shit.
I recently played through this game and i was appalled at how short it was. The downloadable stories did add a bit of extra gameplay, but otherwise i could effortlessly shoot through it in a single day. Why is this?
