>>340828006
Fug XD
>>340828235
I've never played Prototype, what makes his life so hard besides his good looks?

>>340828006
Prove me wrong
>>340828690
Thanks for reminding me I need to finish that game. I'm sure the sequel will be even better
>>340829082
What sequel?
This is the end
(Or you mean old blood aka cod Nazi zombies)
>>340829214
I thought it was all but confirmed Machine Games were announcing a sequel at E3
>>340829349
Yeah, it's been rumoured for a while. probably going to be a more stealth-heavy game staring Anya.

Nobody has had a harder life than max
>>340829627
But is Max forced to commit mass genocides against entire dimensions of people as a result of a debt he acquired because he was wrongfully accused of being a pedophile and a terrorist, which only happened because his brother cucked him out of his dream job?
>>340830125
okay fine.
max has had the hardest cop life.
Brad Armstrong, who did nothing wrong
>>340830315
to be fair he brought all that shit on himself. He was a piece of shit prior to the game then suddenly decided he wanted to change his ways when it was too late.
>>340830315
Now im sad
>>340830246
That's a pretty solid pick.
>gets used by his best friend
>gets called a heretic
>forgotten in history
>doesn't even get a proper grave
>>340830497
> He was a piece of shit prior to the game
his dad was Irish so its not his fault
>>340829627
The final line in 2 where max comes to terms with all the shit he's dealt with was so sad for me, mixed in with the music. I'm glad they gave him a reasonably positive ending in 3.
>>340828006
Big Boss had it worse.
>>340831525
I would argue Raiden had it worse
>>340828006
He did nothing wrong
>>340831525
>>340831578
I think it's fair to say BB, snake, and raiden all had it pretty rough for different reasons.

Issachar had a hard life.
>>340828006

The fact that he died alone in a cave is just sad.

>>340833234
No, anon.I used to say "fuck year" a lot but severe memory problems made me forget.
>>340833215
Heavily implied, and many an interpretation deem it so.
>>340828563
Long story short, imagine a literal sociopath who dislikes humanity finally learning to care and even have compassion for some people and possibly even humanity as a whole despite how self destructive it is. Sadly they fucked it up in the sequel by making him an edgy "HUMANITY IS AWFUL" faggot.
>>340832494

what a shitty way to end a great series. I remember getting excited as fuck when the Ground Zeroes trailer was released in 2012 and even more excited after the 2013 E3 footage. Then I finish the game feeling indifferent...

1-3 are one of my favorite horror film franchises. Didn't care for the rest
>>340834596
Kojima will either make another MGS game involving the REAL Big Boss and say that TPP was just a prank to make us fans feel "the phantom pain".
OR
He just remakes MG1 and 2 and brings back David Hayter to voice Solid Snake again.
>>340835302

>involved with Metal Gear
>>340835302
Kojima left Konami.
