Stand Alone Complex is arguably the best of the franchise. It replaces a lot of the weird spirituality and philosophy from the movie with political intrigue, though.

Arise is completely skippable, however.

Absolutely not.
The sequels are fucking atrocious and the tv series is just a crime drama with little to no plot in the vein of the original film.
Its a waste of time.

481 KB, 1799x2500
Ghost in the Shell on the PS1 is the best licensed game; it has you piloting a Fuchikoma with the ability to walk/slide entirely on walls and ceilings and fighting these huge badass bosses. Every mission feels unique and has original anime shorts between them, the soundtrack is fantastic aswell.

Unofficially, Binary Domain. On the surface it looks like a generic third person squad shooter and though it is exactly that, it's so much more. It was made by the Yakuza team so you know it's gonna have 10/10 characters and over-the-top bosses and you'd not be disappointed with either. It feels like they just watched SAC and said yeah lets just make a video game about androids and robots in Neo-Tokyo that would be cool as shit and it is.
Also one of your squadmates is a big black dude with a heavy machine gun that asks you if you want to double team some underage prostitutes and is the only person to approve of you hitting on underage girls so take from that what you will. Soundtrack is also cool
>>
>>341922402

Watch both, as they are both pretty good.
>>
>>341922532
Except SAC is actually awful.
>>
>>341919790

Dude, it was all 3 of those things. I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

The laughing man arc was awesome. Lots of discussions about AI, how technology and society integrate, about identity, a surveillance state, etc. The Tachikomas develop their own personality and arguably become sentient. One of the Tachikomas even gives a definition of God that I'd never heard before.

What should a new Ghost in the Shell game be like? First Assault does not have the kind of gameplay I had in mind for a GiTS game at all.
Stealth, planning, slow progression, a few very intense gunfights and story are what I had in mind. Multiplayer should have been something closer to the Rainbow six: Siege or one of the older game in my opinion.

I just don't understand why they went for a CS, TF2 and COD hybrid.

Deus Ex is a good framework for a GitS game. I'm unfamiliar with Rainbow Six as a series, but making it somewhat like SWAT 4 would have been cool too.

Honestly I don't think a Section 9 game could properly encapsulate the feeling of the anime at all. The action scenes are great but they're few and far between to break up all the dialogue/hacking/background checking

No two episodes are really the same, but that would be such a difficult thing to sort out in a video game without just making everything a mediocre jack-of-all-trades type deal

We've always got NeoTokyo though

>'Tis

>>341925667
Earlier Rainbow Six games had a planning phase that would let you determine the point of entry, the equipment your squad would have, and a plethora of other options before you went in to execute the mission.
I'm not sure how SWAT 4 does it, but I think the gameplay is pretty similar.

PS1 game is a lot more original, and has these delicious cutscenes with art direction based on the manga.

The PS1 game has an all-original story, but it's based on the manga. Shirow himself worked on the script of the game, I believe. Or at least he helped with the art direction on the cutscenes.

The mech that appears on the game is a Fuchikoma, not Tachikomas. They appear in the manga, but not on the movie.
>>
>>341927346
The visual design is based on the manga
It's not a Tachikoma, it's a Fuchikoma
It doesn't really matter anyway, it's entirely it's own thing and can be enjoyed without any knowledge of the manga, films, anime, etc

>>
>>341928401
It's a bit more prevalent in the anime, but regardless, I'd say that a good 30% of HnK is Ken seeing thugs harassing random wastelanders and punching them using either the hundred crack fist or whatever technique he decides on that week. In fact, even the movie where they cut out most of that stuff, the character introductions are still largely just them harassing random no-names. (Ken saves Lyn from that group of thugs in the first few minutes, Rei just cuts through a bunch of guys faces with no real effort, Raoh spends most of his time just running over useless peons while conquering the wastelands, et cetera, et cetera)

Here's an entire page all about comparisons between the animators. http://www.kanzenshuu.com/animation-styles/

Now, can we discuss more GITS?
Is the new online game any good?

Bad CS clone. Not fun, community only plays TDM and nexon tier grinding. Not worth your time. It's free to play though isn't it? You can check it out then.

Yeah I got it in the humble bundle because I wanted the monster hunter demo and psychonauts

Well a bad CS close is still a CS clone. Better than nothing I suppose.

Yeah I played it in the beta and a little bit on release. Super dead community, I can't even play any tactical modes, just lame TDM.

What bothers me the most is that I've still even played better CS clones then this. I wish they would have tried something new or just held their cards untill they got more money for something better. I hope people won't think of GITS video games as a dead end because of this. I'd love for some one to take another shot at a GITS shooter. Something like GITS or Divine Cybermancy.
