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.

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.

yeah its hard to tell with all those cutscenes and shitty gameplay inferior to splinter cell

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

>>321624758
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.

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.

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

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?
