Patrolling Shadow Moses almost makes me wish for a nuclear winter.
Is this what a gaming stroke feels like??
Patrolling the cold shadow Moses makes you wish for the LA li lu le lo
Patrolling Shadow Moses almost makes you feel you're in a Japanese anime
War….. war never changes.
@@DarkM072War...has changed never changes ch-ch-ch-ch changes
I like how Colonel isn't phased by the fact that Raiden killed dozens of people as a kid, then calls him a monster for killing a few birds lol
First of all, the fact it happened in the past can't be changed. And second, there are still rules, even in a war. One rule is to not harm non-participants/civilians.
@@enoyna1001 birds don't count as Civs
but as non-participants @@Dovah_Slayer
Same with Solid Snake though honestly... Campbell and that slut Naomi berate you for blasting n word chickens on the elevator down to the cold storage
the ai that is the colonel must make sure _to pass down the right ideas to raiden,_ for he truly is one of his _beloved monsters._
There is a legit use for making snake vomit in MGS3, if you eat poison or spoiled food you can cure him by doing that.
That's so rad I would of never knew that otherwise unless I read this comment, dope piece of knowledge I feel like this isn't known much tysm
also, to get out of my cell after snake gets captured and stripped of his weapon, I made snake throw up and the guard open the cell gate
Also it can be used to escape the cell
Ocelot getting his hand cut off in the ps1 version was wayyy better
I can't believe I'm actually learning some new facts after all those years and dozen of playthroughs. Awesome
7:56 The Thermal Goggles are only here in Very Easy and Easy difficulty. In Normal and up, they're located further into the game.
Here's a weird fact everybody gets kinda wrong about MGS3 that I spent way too much time researching:
So many people claim that Volgin's phrase "kuwabara kuwabara" means "mulberry field" and it's a protective, superstitious chant designed to protect a person from lightning because according to legend, mulberry trees don't get struck by lightning.
When I first heard this I thought "Okay, that's cool... but what legend are they referring to?" And researching this became a nightmare.
Some people claim it originates from a 9th century Japanese aristocrat called Sugawara no Michizane who admittedly, had a very interesting life... but people claim he ruled over a land called 'Kuwabara' and was exiled after a whole bunch of political conflict.
After dying, his spirit was said to throw lightning bolts at those who wronged him as part of his vengeance except he never struck Kuwabara (his home turf) and so people began saying "Kuwabara, Kuwabara" in hopes that Michizane would be hesitant to lightning strike them.
This is all well and good... but I can't find any evidence that Sugawara no Michizane actually ruled over a land called Kuwabara except for uncorroborated claims.
But it gets weirder still because there is a famous writer in Japan called Moku Jōya who is famous for writing about Japanese culture and he wrote a book called "Japan and things Japanese" which explains the origin differently.
He claims that Kuwabara was a village in the Izumi province of the Osaka prefecture (which technically does still exist today although Google maps just sends you to a random bus stop) and that... a bolt of lightning fell into a well in the village and the villagers managed to capture it. They basically negotiated with this bolt of lightning and said they would release it if it promised to never strike the village of Kuwabara again.
During research, there were also a bunch of people who claimed that a historical figure known as "Mr Kuwabara" was famously afraid of lightning... or something... I dunno, it gets really weird the deeper you look into it.
The bottom line is that it doesn't seem like anybody really knows for sure. The idea that a village known as Kuwabara became impervious to lightning is why people think Mulberry trees have something to do with the legend (because thats what the translation says) but this doesn't seem to be the case.
It'd be like if you went to a village called "Daffodil" and you found out that nobody ever got sick there and so you assume that daffodils prevent people from getting sick... somehow. Even if they don't grow daffodils in "Daffodil".
There is no evidence that Kuwabara was famous for its Mulberry trees... it might have just been named that for arbitrary reasons or reasons that became outdated as time went on.
I spent way too much time on this but I do know that... guess what... Mulberry trees aren't immune to lightning... because why would they be? I even found a video of one being struck by lightning lol.
this is some genuinely valuable research, dude. though it comes up inconclusive, this is very telling on the many iterations of Japanese folk tales. especially that there are iterations on this particular one.
@@tom_k_cook I'm being serious when I say this is just the tip of the iceberg. This rabbit hole runs deep and I found a whole bunch of other theories that have no official sources. I tried to condense my findings as best I could but I'm not kidding when I say this was simultaneously fascinating and frustrating lol.
The reason I began looking into it is because so many videos on TH-cam made the exact same claim of "according to legend..." and never specified what legend, like we were supposed to take it at face value like source: trust me bro. When you actually look into it, it's crazy haha.
I commend anyone that reads this whole comment
I'm after doing some research myself and it turns out that mulberry trees are only native to west Asia, China and the Eastern United States....but there are mulberry trees on a Japanese island that are highly regarded for the wood quality
cool research friend. seems to me like one of those urban legends or little stories the kids like to spread around, while the origins might be true, its been spread around so much and other groups of kids have added their own flair to the story that, over time, its true origins become forgotten, but what remains is the ritual or the legend itself
5:06
*Both* posters are from Policenauts (specifically, the first poster mentioned). It is not from Zone of the Enders, as that game was years away from being developed.
In the opening tanker area of MGS2, one of the dog tags you can get off a guard is for Jean-Luc Cougar, protagonist of "poor's man's Metal Gear solid" shooter WinBack: Covert Operations on the N64 & later PS2. Cool nod to a fabulous game, one of my childhood favorites.
I would like to point out that the two posters shown in Hal's lab are both from Policenauts in MGS1. ZoE wouldn't release until 2001.
The Enclave definitely has a metal gear in the storage.
15:29 Another fun detail is if you've eaten spoiled food, you can spin Snake around until he pukes to "cure" the food poisoning. I'm pretty sure guards and dogs will react to the puke puddle if they find it too.
Cheers. Your facts videos are mint. Good job
Glad you like them!
Finally, valuable TKsmantis content
I quite prefer the useless facts videos. I feel like i can watch them without too many spoilers
9:33
If Naked Snake was on the codec instead of Raiden:
Campbell: Snake! Do you actually enjoy abusing helpless animals?
Snake: Animals? I only saw the daily breakfast meal.
I have come to notice no one ever mentions when shaking Ocelot for items the first time you encounter him in MGS3, he drops 1 item, and only 1 item.
A single 'Mouse trap'...
Kojima is letting it be known right out of the gate..
Ocelot is the rat.
And also it's a joke about him being a cat
The twin snakes had great voice acting. I can’t help but notice that fox wasn’t mentioned in this. I feel like this is more a case of someone falling so I love with the original that any deviation, even a good one, is seen as heresy
27:00 if you've ever played the demo version of metal gear solid on the Pizza Hut demo disc then you remember that Sean Barker was also credited on there as well.
Kept you waiting huh.
Moving from one of my favorite series to another. "Amazing, that right there is why you're the best Boss! The one and only!"
OH MY GOD..... IM IN FUCKING (outer) HEAVEN
“War never changes” to “war has changed” in the intro
Every dialogue difference between MGS1 and twin snakes is the biggest case for the appropriate amount of poetic freedom in translation I've ever seen in my life.
Every single adaptation in MGS1 original elevates the dialogue.
35:32 Meryl does not have python tatoo, that's original FoxHound logo from Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake
I dont actually know how many game overs it takes for Ocelot to change his tune as even with my subpar skills at this game i don't get more than 2 or 3 game overs on the fight also let me just say i love that mask its so cool
23 years later and MGS (especially MGS2) ::STILL:: manages to surprise me. It’s little special details like rare interactions between guards sneaking up on eachother is what makes this a series like no other. Details anyone else that isn’t Kojima & Co. could never imagine. MGS was my favorite series ever. But KojiPro not making it just isn’t the same. But good luck to the next developer.
I have a fun fact for you, I am sure you gathered by my screenname that I am a fan of Metal Gear, one time I played MGS1 for 24 hours straight to see if they actually did anything knowing how many secrets there were in the game, sadly there is nothing for the 24hrs I guess they assumed no one would be as insane as I am.
would have been funny if there was a secret timer... and if it reaches zero, a cutscene plays with REX firing a nuke and Game Over
You're pretty good.
Thank you so much!
😮 i remember on old game cheat websites in 1999, seeing guides that said to shoot the mantos statues to easily beat him, but they never mentioned the codec convo part, and i spent lots of time failing to shoot the statues up, so much that i thought it was a hoax up until seeing this video
Man despite looking better i forget how much i hated the voice acting in twin snakes until i see it the next time
More like 20 minutes of facts and 40 minutes of scenes from the games.
WHO ARE THE LA LI LU LE LO ?!?! I mean who are the patriots.
Revolver ocelot with his arm cut off: ahh. Stealth camouflage
Me in same situation: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGHHHHGHGGGGGGGGHHHHTFGGG!
Bri really said SOCUM
Whats a bri?
I don’t remember this fallout game but it’s amazing
Son of 2 legendary soldiers... ocelot absolutely has the gift of foresight or some type of parasite that gives him some level of supernatural ability/genius intellect..
the first one took up 9% percent of the video
Yooo My Goat Tks Mantis Is a metal Gear fan aswell Thas awesome
one the best game series of all times
I think Meryl just gave up and started making snakes snake solid 7:11
I just got my copy of Twin Snakes last week, it was amazing. I don't get why peope don't like it.
It's a mixture of two things, modification of the cutscenes, and the gameplay additions. The cutscenes were changed to make them nore like action movies, which made them feel less real, less grounded, and less genuine. It felt a lot more goofy in comparison. Next, the game was made with the PS1 version's controls and limitations in mind, but it wasn't really changed to fit the gameplay additions of MGS2's engine, meaning a lot of the gameplay got trivialized, especially certain bosses.
Thank you. With these facts in mind, my replays will be even more fun when Collection 1 comes out soon
If you give Otacon a photo of girls which you can find in the lockers, he would blush and say he will make backup of the photos.
19:32 you can see a neon sign that says solid snake
11:59 ocelot lore
Alot of these details are things games would sell themselves on nowadays......I wanna climb the fucking mountain howard
Twin snakes is so goofy hahaha
nice video, ,but zone of the enders came out a few years after mgs :)
This guy aint a metal gear expert
Holy shit! A new TKSMantis Mgs video! Fuck yeah :D
Funny, in the version I played ocelot says "my hand!" When it gets sliced off
Campbell will also give you the codec frequency for Nastasha once you enter the tank hangar, were you to call him.
you answered my prayers with this one
excellent work sir
It’s just a box!
"Useless"? I had no idea about this first fact!
LESSSSSS GOO!! !
The Moai heads are actually from Konami's Gradius series. They aren't easter eggs only because they are from easter island.
I hate The Twin Snakes cutscenes so much
Corny as fuck
Beat the hell out of almost every single metal gear solid game aside from the GameCube version. I really need to go back and play through the GameCube version since it was the one version I always wanted when MGS2 came out. "Imagine if they redid part 1 but with MGS2 graphics" I'd always say to myself and yet they did lol.
The fact that you never know everything about mgs it’s so crazy. A lot of people in the comments with hundreds of hours learning new stuff
30:50 the what now! 🤯
thank you mantis for msg content
I've never been able to play twin snake's im hoping they can put it in metal gear solid master collection volume 2
if you can show me a msg3 fact I dont know I'll be impressed tbh
Shalashaska is a far more skilled than your average genome soldiers which is why Grey fox switches up his sword grip he only does this when fighting ocelot or snake but I've been a fan of metal gear since I was a kid plus Meryl is a lying about that psycho therapy to destroy her interest in men bc she fell for snake after like 1 phone call either snake is the rizz god or she just easy but this rabbit hole is worth exploring it's not fair how they did Kojima at the end
Here goes my next hour
Crab battle!
Nice
Wonder what happened with Mei Ling and Otacon? .
Played the shit out of this game as a kid and I never knew about the rope at 31:03 either bro 😅
You make great content. Can we see more useless facts about metal gear solid trilogy please?
YESSSS
there are older and better channels for this
Finally.
Goodnight brothers
Hey you, Snake. Go sneak that shit! :-)
Yes yes yes yes
There are no useless MGS facts.
I don't know what i did for thiis to happen but not just 1 person was i. there underwear everyone was, any idea how tf that happened, only ever once my very first play through
Like the video?
jheeze I know you gotta fill an hour but the first 5 minutes the clips just run on too long, instead of highlighting the parts that change, you seem to just show the entire cutscene start to end
The "soak em"?
Funny thing about the ocelot fight i got the good one, i never knew about the other until my friend tried playing, he keep dying & ocelot said he's disappointed
This is a weird fallout game
metal gear solidDaa
S tier content!
I beg your pardon? That’s an S++ grade
socum
No joke i want an israel/palestine MGS. I feel like Kojima is the only one crazy enough to do it without provoking the ire of tbe entire "world". 😂🤘
Seeing as he nearly pulled mgs2 from coming out over the 9 11 attacks i doubt he would do what you said.
@@adrianocollinzo5712And the ENTIRE Arsenal gear crashing through Manhattan section was removed in response.
@@NeroLordofChaos yes sir.
Could've removed the "Useless" from the title of the video. You are celebrating MGS Collection and refreshing memories but calling it "USELESS" is kinda counter intuitive. Furthermore it's ONE HOUR LONG. Why would someone be reminded of how all these fictional facts are useless when we all know they are but we ignore because it's fiction and we love fiction? A simple word can change a lot of meaning. The entire video feels painful to watch when you realize it's called "USELESS". It's like saying "Let's watch this amazing USELESS movie" or "Let's play this game that is uselss and wasting your time".
Hell yeah man! Knew you'd drop one of these collection vids since the new mgs collection is coming out.
Since I was a little kid Metal Gear Solid was my favorite franchise
Long before I ever experienced fallout, or any Bethesda games
I do hope eventually Guns of The Patriots gets a re-release or remake
No matter how many times I've played the game, no matter how many videos I watch. I always learn new things about the franchise
The Easter island head represents the an ready game...
