It's a shame cause it was my favorite franchise back in the day.

It could have been great if Konami hadn't aborted it halfway through production.

At least V wasn't a fucking movie.

does killing other franchises count

>>334349337
Exactly. The whole franchise was about interactive cheesy movies. V dropped all that and it became a Splinter Cell wannabe with repetitive missions and shit for story.

But PW did that first.

4 clearly didn't kill it since we got Peace Walker, GZ and TPP.

TPP is de facto the killer of the franchise since Konami is out of the AAA business, Hideo is gone, TPP was a massive disappointment to metal gear fans, and very few people are going to consider Metal Gear Solid 6: Mobile Ops in those same terms.

Also, if you look at the cutscene/gameplay ratio as a percentage, MGS4 isn't that far off from MGS2. It's just that with more game, more cutscenes and longer ones back to back.

>>334349638
And that's why I didn't buy V.

Based on the betas. I guess SP could be great, but the game just doesn't have the speed or fury of Doom classic. Fucking console players.

Holy shit, that's pathetic. It's more like WWE meets the Power Rangers.

>>334349678
I didn't mind this fight. It wasn't an over-the-top fuckfest of explosions and gayness. Then at the end Chief just fucking walks away like that guy wasn't nothin. I thought it being conservative spoke more volume.

That being said that game was awful.

Yeah, can't wait to see what they come up with for MGS6: Mobile Ops, or MGS6: Tactical Lever Action.

F.E.A.R., F.E.A.R. EP, F.E.A.R. PM, F.E.A.R 2, F.E.A.R. 2 REBORN were all so great. Then...this piece of shit happened.

If it makes you feel sad, play some Brutal doom. That shit lifts my spirits in an instant.

That will never get a sequel because it fucking sucks.

Literally the last thing Baron von Notedgeworth says after the final trial is "You know, a Japanese dude betrayed me before, but whatever I'll tell you that some other time..."
Then a bunch of other stupid shit happens as well, and upon every single fucking thing the characters reaction is like "This looks like it would be interesting.. some other time..."
THE FUCKING LITTLE GIRLS DAD IS DEAD AND NO ONE FUCKING TELLS HER

NO ONE
JUST FUCKING TELL HER WATSON BIT THE DUST IN THE FIRST TRIAL


INSTEAD IT JUST ENDS WITH SECRET MORSE CODE THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY PART OF SOME INTERNATIONAL SECRETS BEING SOLD FROM LONDON SELLING SECRETS AND SHIT WHICH HAD YOUR HEADBAND BROS NAME ON IT, DETECTIVE "HELPS CRIMINAL MAN" AND DOCTOR WATSON ON IT
EVERYONE LOOKS AT IT, FUCKING SHURGS TO THE CAMERA AND IS LIKE

WHATEVER

WHY
>>
>>334351185
Other than the man character being fucking obnoxious, X was pretty good. It has some of the best gameplay in the series, in fact.

Only the first FEAR and maybe Perseus Mandate were decent. Rest was crap. A lot like Crysis actually.

way do street fighter fanboys hate fighting games
>>
>>334349225
Okay, so I've seen this one a couple times. I'll admit to only having played this one on Xbone.

It's a pretty good time. Easy to fuck yourself over or miss important trinkets if you don't know what you're doing. Sure the city hub's a convoluted mess, the load times are killer, and there are lot's of points where only one interaction is possible. Despite all these, it's a welcome change of pace.

So what's it doing that's so damn unacceptable around here?
>>
>>334350021
sorry. it was a disappointment to fans with good taste. better?
>>
>>334353108
I think it's the addition of the jaunt or whatever the sliding mechanic is called, also the fact that it was originally a reboot before the team backed down and made it a sequel.
>>
>>334353260
So, mostly fucking around with continuity and some unwelcome mechanics, then. I assume the jaunt lowered difficulty too much for fan taste? Or is it just poorly implemented, because it doesn't impact detection much?

5 is better than 4, 2 and peace walker

>>334353260
It's still pretty much a reboot. Although they handled it in an absolutely retarded way where there's old Garrett and a new Garrett.
>>
>>334353861
Yeah but at least they tried making New Garrett into his own character.

The series was stale as it could be. Something needed to be done to shake things up, it was the completely wrong thing, but still...
>>
>>334354781
>some
I recently discovered the MGS4 camera mod and CQC camera removal one. It makes a huge difference to the look and feel of the game. If only there was a mod that added a button to stick to cover.
>>
>>334349678
Do they tell kids going through spartan training to telegraph their moves as much as possible?
>>
>>334349867
so why did you post a picture of V over peace walker?
>>
>>334354558
But Ace Combat isn't dead. We're getting an honest to God good looking sequel on ps4 and we had a good remake of 2 and a mechanical good multiplayer game that was only ruined by its shit pay to play fuel mechanic.
>>
>>334355875
can you link them?
>>
>>334350021
Konami is out, believe me.

Metal Gear was their only betting card, they are fucked with Winning Eleven or Pro Evolution Soccer.

4, 2 and even peace walker had much more variety to their missions, which makes your statement, untrue

you couldnt even say WHY you like V more, if your life depends on it. Suck on this, nu-male!
