GamingSins: Everything Wrong with Metal Gear Solid
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ย. 2024
- Welcome to GamingSins where we nitpick the hell out of video games.
To celebrate the release of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain - Hideo Kojima's last true Metal Gear game and possibly the beginning of the end of Konami - we take a look at the game that brought the franchise to the forefront and cemented itself as one of the greatest games ever made. This one was easily one of the toughest GamingSins video to make as this is my (narrator's) favorite game of all time. But even so, EVERY game commits sin....even Metal Gear Solid.

I got through the game completely forgetting about the thermal goggles, and used the cigarettes to get through the lasers
whahaha, same here :)!!
Also got through using cigarettes. Good times.
Same. I actually did that on my first playthrough,
dude holy fuck i thought i was the only one dumb and clueless enough to have to use cigarettes for that
The game tells you this. So I knew.
So.... um you aren't the only ones.
I still say "A surveillance camera?" whenever I see one.
I say it alot.
l do that same but then l go too payday2 and strat hearing ''they haven't seen us yet"

@@noburu4717 hoping that 6 sense works because he's too close or you to spot:
All Snake's "Questions" are actually quite valid for a soldier being dropped into a mission, with a quick briefing.
They're not valid for the sequels and prequels though are they? Kojima likes to talk. And you're gonna listen. At least as far as he's concerned.
Let's just be honest dude.... Hideo is far far FAR too in love with himself. Great game, it is. But for all their faults, Konami are not to blame for Kojima's ego.
Preach. Kojima's ego is so massive especially when compared to other directors and filmmakers. It's not like hundreds of people have worked under you to make your vision a reality.
@@lonestar6709 Cool...what's that got to do with MGS1 though?
Here's a question is liquid voice loki from avengers
@@WHATEVERIDOWHATIWAN No. Why didn't you just Google it?
Actually, wrong. You can get through the laser portion with your cigarettes.
Oh and Liquid says they are launching the nuke in ten hours, because they couldn't actually launch the nuke. They couldn't override Rex's security, which is why Rex actually actives instead of deactivating when Snake inputs the PAL cards.
And you can shoot while running. Square button, hold it.
The argument that a Metal Gear can be taken down with a Stinger, thus it isn't the ultimate nuclear weapon is silly. A tank can be taken out with a simple log between it's treads, but it still sure as fuck is more destructive than a foot soldier ever could be.
+Mazzmaker69 You know you have a goddamn good point.
+Mazzmaker69 correct, and the stinger didn't do much anyways. Gray Fox had to destroy the radome to get the cockpit open. Even shooting the cockpit with the stinger didn't do much because the hardware was still functional in 4.
+Mazzmaker69 Exactly, plus Metal Gears' armour is made from depleted uranium, the same material current M1 Abram tanks use as armour.
Kenji Fukushima AS far as I know it's only ST-84 Metal Gear (Sahelanthropus) that has that. The little kritters use it to multiply and make more of themselves. Making the Metal Gear itself a nuclear bomb in the process.
+Mazzmaker69 was looking for this comment xD good old cigarettes
The "Do do do dododo Do do do dododo" Konami song didn't deserved a sin.
Victor Arêas it's from policenauts if you're curious.
He didn't sin the song, he was sinning Konami
Shooting guided rockets at Sniper Wolf reminds me of how you can completely bypass Quiet's boss battle by dropping supply crates on her head.
+Evnyofdeath oh my god...that's brilliant
+Evnyofdeath Yeah but on Extreme version she dodges :( but it's still a fairly easy S Rank.
MR Gaming You see, I figured out how to get around that. If she's lining up a shot on Snake's head, she won't dodge the boxes. So I just kept popping in and out of cover so they could hit. Granted, that was in the normal boss fight, since she'll dodge the second box. Haven't gotten to the Extreme version yet
Evnyofdeath I tried it a couple of times on Extreme and she dodged right away...she one hit kills you on Extreme so I don't really think it's an option. I have a vid where I S-Rank on Extreme...I died about 5 times on it, but then played again with fresh eyes the next day and beat her straight away. Enjoy the rest of the game :)
MR Gaming Alright then. I'll have to check that video when I get to that point then. And I am enjoying it immensely.
"A cornered fox is more dangerous than a jackal" such a classic line
I sat here for like 18 minutes reading this wondering why you typed Concerned., however you did not type concerned. Have a good day.
@@ianbell1168 🤣🤣🤣 it's all good dude, I'm dyslexic, I do the same thing all the time
I wanna touch on a few points that other commenters (that I've seen) haven't.
-Most of the questions Snake asks are good questions that a highly intelligent Soldier would ask. His repetition in other points may be to punctuate their importance for the player. Additionally: you've obviously never seen Escape from New York if you don't get the reference.
-Just because a base is near Alaska, doesn't mean a RUSSIAN MILITARY helicopter should be on a US military base.
-Snake is probably yelling at Meryl to get her to snap the fuck out of it and get her head in the game. When I was in the military, they actually did a pretty cool thing where they gave us a minute to find as many words in a crossword as possible. They then had the person next to us yell at us and had us work on a fresh one. To my surprise, almost everyone did better when being screamed at.
I'm sure there's more, but I can't listen to this video anymore. The fact that you didn't bother to use the CODEC to find out you could use your cigarettes to see the laser hurts my brain.
Brandon this channel’s videos are purely for comedic purposes. I understand if you don’t find it funny but try to take it easy
GG
"Most of the questions Snake asks are good questions that a highly intelligent Soldier would ask. His repetition in other points may be to punctuate their importance for the player." I can't remember what it is called (if someone knows please tell me), but it is actually a thing in Japanese to provide verbal interjections to prove you are still listening. It is considered polite. In English, we'd assume that people constantly going "yeah" or "uh-huh" everytime you said something was being an asshole. In Japanese it is considered rude if you don't do this. Furthermore I believe that repeating stuff but as a question could also be a Japanese thing.
Anyway I agree with you. I don't think this is really a "sin". It is probably a quirk since the game would have been originally written in Japanese. MGS still has probably one of the best English localizations. There have been many games released years later that had really shitty and annoying VA (like Final Fantasy X). The VA is just generally so good that I don't really care if Snake is just repeating stuff.
@@kiri3567 - some things, like stating you cant go without thermal gogles through laser part is not funny, it makes GCN sound stupid. But i love this channel anyway.
@@Gunbustarhymes Yeah I read that somewhere, I forget where, but I remember it, that the reason Snake repeats things is because of how the Japanese converse with each other, they repeat a lot.
u have good points. I remember crying because I didn't have a ps1 memory card so I couldn't save and my neighbor who was like 6 wanted to play a different game my mom argued with me and I was soo close to the end. I cryed like a baby when my mother pressed that power button.
lol
Yeah. Parents are practically a gamers worst enemy.
That actually made me tear up a little.
Damn. I too don't have a memory card. But that right there is the ultimate pain.
jerkygirlx gta 3 i didnt have a memory card for awhile no way in hell i was ever gonna beat that game in one sitting
So cutting the FucKonami thing this game only got 51 sins? That's pretty damn good for a game.
51 sins for a half an hour video.
That's actually a little disappointing.
yeah considering that most of em were pretty dumb,inaccurate,unfair and cliches really dont work if we talk about a game of that age soooooooooooooo..... i would say that there are about 25 sins accurate in this video and yeah if the action part was forced then so was this video....
Kazuhira Miller the fiddler how would any of the cliches not apply please enlighten me
+GetFrisky this game is old things they used back then were used firstly like some years ago enlightened now smarty??
This game has less glitches than any AAA big publisher game since 2013.
How about the fact Otacon designed an armored robotic tank on legs with laser guided missiles and a rail gun, but acts surprised when he realized they plan to use it to kill people.
He was only surprised about the nuclear missiles.
@@filipeflower The rail gun was designed to launch nuclear missiles
@@RemyJackson Otacon didn't know that at first.
It was as far as he knew design to fire Patriot missiles missiles designed to safely neutralize enemy missiles the fact it was capable of firing rockets makes perfect sense he just didn’t know how it would be used
A good guy with a robotic tank on legs with laser-guided missiles and a rail gun can stop a bad guy with a robotic tank on legs wth laser-guided missiles and a rail gun.

Before that name became toxic
@@ElPatron42069sssssniperwolf?
Correction: Liquid says that they will launch the first nuke in ten hours to give snake enough time to figure out the key cards and activate Rex.
Mason Love Also, Campbell mentions that the US and Russia are going to hold negotiations on nuclear weapons reductions the next day, and if any evidence of the US developing new advanced nuclear weapons got out, the US would lose all leverage they had being the dominant super power at the time and Russia/China would start bidding for the Metal Gear tech from Liquid. Snake even mentions the 10 hour deadline during this codec call.
A lot of you are pointing out that you can get through the lasers without the thermal goggles and that you CAN run and shoot. Honestly, we forgot. Hey, every game - and TH-camr - commits a sin.
I like the fact that you put 321 stars from ddr in this vid
+GCN There are different types of psychic abilities. Not all of them can read minds.
+GCN lol i was wondering how many people were going to point that out, i recently replayed this one for the new one, and i didn't even know about the socom untill i watched this.
+GCN Sin life is stange
You can run while shooting if you press X. Filthy mgs noobs sinning this video. Jk, loved it. Keep up the good work
"No metal gear solid fan can justify this, without thermal goggles, you pass through lasers blindly with luck"
My response: CIGARETTES
I wanted to close the video at the very begining when I saw he added 100 sins for the opening scene. I gave him another chance, then a fucking song started ("hey konami..."). I closed this bullshit...
+SeigneurSidious I kept watching, yours was the right call
+SeigneurSidious exact same here. cringeworthy
Agreed
+SeigneurSidious Exactly my thoughts...
+SeigneurSidious great choice
You CAN shoot while running.
another sin for GamingSins *insert sound here*
true
Mariano Gianelli
Oaksosmszwkw**
I was going to say this!
IIRC you hold both X and square to shoot and move
i remember you could shoot while running by holding down the square then pressing the x buttons at the same time
is the running while shooting controls simple? and easy to figure out without experimentation? im asking because i haven't played the game also maybe cgn voice guy just didnt do it for that reason, he didnt bother to expiriment
@@electri-citywatts The controls are simple, running while shooting from a controls perspective is also simple, but this being unknown to many fans of the series is a fault stemming from how the game handles it's tutorializing: Throughout the entirety of the first segment (that is you rescuing the DARPA Chief and Arms Tech President) you receive codec calls that give you (quite immersion breaking) tutorials on how to do certain actions, like climbing ladders, interacting with elevator panels etc. But when it comes to actual combat, the game is sparse with information.
This means that some parts are just left unexplained and some of the more intricate things one can perform (drag around guards in a choke-hold, holding throwables to wait out part of the detonation time, lingering stinger lock-on, running while firing, sticking C4 to guards) are all basically unexplained and only people who, either figured this shit out by themselves or have played through the MGS: Integral VR mission pack that was re-released at a later date or dug through the manuals could figure some of these things out.
@@Pr0manStream thank you for explaining, i just figured maybe he didn't know
I remember looking through the manual and going, "Wait, I can do that!"
There are a demo of vr missions when you beat time or in mgs vr mission game I dont remember where and you see the demos beating the clock levels and it was the first time I saw him running while shooting I was like 😮😮😮😮 whatttttt we can ?! Haha
13:05 - they can't launch the missile right away because they don't have the codes! this scene was acting to imply to snake that they already know the codes when in fact they dont!
Everything Wrong With Metal Gear Solid: NOTHING. The end.
Nootka Rey Except for certain things mentioned, The End.
No, a lot of these are just pointless, inane musings. Kind of like your entire life.
Desmocedici wow, did you really just get on the offensive because somebody disagrees with you? damn dude, that's pathetic as shiiiiiiiiiiit
It hasn’t been remastered is the only sin
Desmocedici it has a few flaws but other than that it’s amazing
You know what I wanted to see in metal gear games? The Boss' exploits in WWII. From the beginning to her being separated from her son (Ocelot) and the death of the Sorrow. She could be the perfect badass female in gaming. Sadly we'll never see it because Konami has their heads so far up their own assess to make an actual game. And Kojima can't make any more Metal Gear games. That is the true Gaming Sin! Like if you agree
Agree
fuck the konami
+Blinking Zero Watch out we got a new gcn sin counter LOL
+Blinking Zero you had me until you said "Like if you agree"
Agent North Dakota hey the more likes the more people will see it and maybe I'm just hoping if enough people want the same thing maybe the sh!t smear that is konami will listen.
15:08 Actually in MGS1 you can shoot and RUN
+SolidSnake11 Indeed by holding Square and X. Sin on the sinner for research failure
+Driver6647 wtfomgsmhlmfao
+Driver6647 Hey don't be a dick, the whole point of a sin video is to point out minor to major flaws in the thing you're reviewing and so what if he made a little mistake. Also male Anita Sarkeesian seriously? He's nothing like her! She thinks video games are bad and blames them for shit whereas this guy just makes sin videos. Please don't hate or troll.
Driver6647 Well like I said before a sin video maker is just here to point out ridiculous to legitimate flaws on something. It's not about whether or not they can make a game themselves. If you don't like him and his videos so much then you should stop watching if you haven't already.
Driver6647 Well that's a solid argument you got there I mean with the- Oh wait that's right, you just strung together a whole bunch of sex words and called it clever. My my making yourself stand out from rest in a unique productive way I see?
Look he made a video for those who would like it, not for the critics which despite being rather dimwitted, narrow minded, rude, boring, primitive, immature, and slow you qualify as.
Yeah you can hate all you want, but it won't change anything because he's STILL going to make the videos his way, and you're STILL not going to like it. You could've offered some constructive criticism but that would've required some thinking whereas you're all impulse no intelligence.
So if you STILL want to be a guy that has shit coming out of his mouth as well as his anus then what can ANYONE do to reason with you?
4:22 the laser section is EASIER without the thermal goggles, you can obtain them but I actually recommend using cigs as it's far easier to tell which laser is closer to snake.
15:11 To shoot while running, Press Square, then HOLD X, You can let go of square, and keep moving while Holding X, to stop firing the Assault rifle, you can hold onto square to keep aiming the SOCOM, this is a feature in Twin snakes as well
I actually made it passed the lasers with the cigars. I never knew there was a socom pistol at the beginning:0
great video by the way 👍
Congrats u learned something new
+Rodolfo Hernandez Same here!
+Rodolfo Hernandez I didn't even know there were thermal goggles because i'd always get the socom pistol where the thermal goggles are suppose to be.
+HailedNine346 only took over 15 years
+Rodolfo Hernandez Me too! The first time I played it, (16 years ago) same thing! I used the cigs! I actually could see the lasers with my eyes if I turned the brightness up in first person view mode. lol

Truly a line that deserves applause
3:28
This bonus mission is not available after completing the game.
I laughed. XD
3:19 "This bonus mission is not available after beating the game" That sent me hahaha
@4:14 , i actually never got the thermal googles ever before, but how i always passed it as a kid, you could smoke his ciggretes in the laser sections, and it shows you the lasers :D

+baby dick Yeah, was pretty darn effective really, and I liked it when I accidentally died by cigs instead of lasers once while doing this section... I have one messed up brain I guess
I don't believe it in twitter Konami copyrights FAN ART FOR KOJIMA?! You gotta be kidding me!!! How can you copyright fan art?!
it just go's to show how low konami will go. its like watching a company play limbo with their fanbase, only the fanbase hates playing limbo.

You can make it through that laser hall way without thermal goggles. You just need to use cigarettes.
this was the comment i was going to make. first several times i played it, i didnt know there was thermal goggles.
and?
Joshua Owens this is comment # 10000 of people saying the same thing
I was going to say this lol
You never know...
I just have to say in the US military even operators and combat veterans ask questions during mission briefings. So Snake is doing the right thing by asking questions during briefings.
"inability to shoot while running" *did you play the same game that I did? because I know can shoot while running*
right like wtf
Bro you played MGS twin snakes
He is playing the original version
@@ShandaliyaAstrology I played the original version and you can shoot while running.
@@ShandaliyaAstrology Holding down the fire button (square) and while doing that tapping the crouch button (x) allows you to move around and shoot. Does not only work with the Famas, but also the SOCOM pistol, which is handy, as it allows for the laser sight to help you aiming while walkng. This makes the fight with Ocelot a cakewalk as you can just chase him down and fire easily and makes the stairwell a walk in the park.
This is however an issue with the game itself, for explaining it's game's mechanics in-game horribly, when it has been doing so from the start (Not a practice I am a fan of, but oh well). It has been explained in the Manualbook the game came with from what I remember, but those that played through the Integral VR mission pack could also learn about this feature and other neat tricks when it came to the Gun-training VR missions, especially the Famas parcour course where you had to destroy several targets in a timewindow. It was even showcased in the idle video intro that plays on that mission pack (great music compilation in that video).
Other tricks and quirks the game fails to mention is the lingering Stinger Lock-on that allows you to shoot past obstacles, if your lock-on is still engaged and you turn and react quick enough. Then there is the recollection of Claymores while crawling, which is a bit more well-known already and the ability to stick C4 to guards, and to drag around choked guards by holding the choke button (square again), instead of tapping it to break their necks and probably a bunch of other things I failed to mention.
@4:20 Well SOMEONE did not know you can make those rays visible with your cigs xD
They even TELL IT to you by codec :D

I'm surprised there wasn't a sin for Meryl enduring the Alaskan climate just fine with an orange vest.
Actually, if you miss the socom, you can get it when you fight the soldiers with Meryl after the DARPA chief dies.
Damn, 20 years later and I never realized the 2nd Sniper Wolf fight could end that easily
Even m'aiq never knew that
I used those or Stingers.
How?
@@2adre just stand in the bottom right corner behind the small cliff area because Sniper Wolf can't hit you from that angle, then just shoot Nikita at her. she'll ignore the Nikita missiles as they come at her.

"classic villain clichè"
and this game was released in 1998, right
that's like saying damsel in distress wasnt a cliche before the 21st century
it makes no sense
so Campbell lying is a sin? I'm going to assume that you're going to sin the fact that the darpa chief was already dead because you must not like a plot twists.
This guy doesnt even understand how to have an entertaining sin counter, let alone actually know how to play these games. I’d say a quarter of these sins are legit, the rest is trying too hard to be funny.
@@defaultclips6478 ok
@@defaultclips6478: Well, to be fair, the game pads its runtime by making you backtrack a significant distance three different times (five if you count each PAL card trip separately, six if you count the drainage ditch). I think Faux Jeremy can pad his sin counter.
"see my eyes? clearly open?"
me: *looks at the snake model's face* eyes? what eyes?
I was 12 when MGS1 came out, I still get nostalgic when I think of how badass and cutting edge PS1 graphics seemed back in the day Lol
Well, I must say that even someone like me, who loves the Metal Gear series to death, I accept most of these sins. However, you missed a few sins... For example, the Sniper Wolf getting Nikita'd to death. You should've sinned the fact that she could take all of those missiles! Why didn't you? And also the scene right after, you could've said that Otacon basically pulled out a Zero. "What am I fighting for?!" Classic.
Zero8000 And Liquid pulled out a Dracula and said “Have at you!” During the Final Brawl
I nikita'd the shit out of Sniper Wolf, on just about every playthrough. I think I didn't know the first couple of times, and I'd snipe her every now and again. To be fair, the sniping controls were not all that great, so I didn't feel much remorse.

@@stephenahern9562 well, he ain't wrong
"what the he'll is with all of these camera turrets?" well shit dude, it's almost as if just past those turrets is a massive bipedal nuclear equipped tank.
And that means they need 50 camera turrets with the same line of sight?
thermal goggles??? I used cigarettes and I did just fine
so?
The video states that you can't progress without the goggles ^
You can use tabacco in the lasers if you dont have the thermal googles and if youre dense enough to not use it they are stil visible, just barely but visible. Also, not needed for anything more, it helps, but not needed, the invisible soldiers can be seen, wolf too, mantis too... Sorry, but very bad sin, you're not that of a fan as you say you are, this is basic info from MGS.
"A cornered fox is more dangerous than a jackal!"
Gets me every time.
You can shoot while running. Hold the Crouch button while shooting and you can move and shoot at the same time. Then, just hold in the crouch button and stop shooting and you're free to shoot whenever while you run.

it's amazing that at 25 years old I can still cry with a scene from a 1998 game
If you bought MGSV Ground Zeroes, the Deja Vu mission has you either look in the digital manual or the back of the physical case to a clue as to what one of the "memories" is.
Glad to see that Kojima Productions would do that again.
+Dennis Claros Yeah, just what I need, another game for Gamestop to sell people without the benefit of the box or even access to the manual if you don't know where to find it.
Devan Evans I believe that Kaz mentions that the manual is in the pause menu.
Maybe. I don't exactly remember.
+Dennis Claros The digital manual that's packaged with the PS4 version of the game has it as well. Probably true of the rest.
I'm so confused as to why there are two MGSVs. Why not have the most recent one be six. Unless it's a prequel to the fifth one or a direct follow up, which would make more sense. I don't know too much about the newest one because I wait for significant price drops.
William Morse Kojima was afraid that he would take too long to make Phantom Pain (This was before Konami decided to put all of their talent in the trash). He also wanted to see how people would react to the new control scheme. That's why we got Ground Zeroes then Phantom Pain and why there were some changes to the control scheme between the 2 games.
@ 24:25 and 24:32 are two times that Hayter ever actually drops his Snake voice. I wonder if there are more.
when you played that torture audio both my thumb and my controller's O button got PTSD
and it was a bigger nightmare if you didn't save before getting busted by Sniper Wolf.
I love to reload during a battle. There's nothing like the feeling of slamming a long silver bullet into a well-greased chamber
I have no idea, but the way Snake says Fox at 24:25 sounds funny to me.
That's because he doesn't. It was added.
You forgot that Liquid attacking Snake w/ the Hind-D doesn't make any sense given that he's trying to get the latter to activate Metal Gear REX.
15:09 "inability to shoot while running"

I'm one of those rare gamers who never got into this game or this series. I played the PC port of MGS and it frustrated me to no end. Here are a few reasons why:
* A stealth game forces you into numerous open gunfights where you have no other option but to mow down enemies. I kept thinking I'd done something wrong.
* A stealth game has no non-lethal options for taking down certain bosses. Remember, the tranq gun was not introduced until Twin Snakes.
* The game gives you no choice but to kill people, and then tries to make you feel guilty for taking their lives.
* Snake is completely unable to knock guards unconscious for more than a few seconds. This forces you to either kill them or run away.
* The PC port still uses the checkpoint save system. (To be fair, so did a ton of other early console ports.)
* The main plot pretty much resorts to a Hollywood understanding of genetic science.
* The game gets rather preachy about how nuclear weapons are the most evil thing ever. Given the full scope of everything that happened in World War II, I have to respectfully disagree.
* The ethnic backgrounds of certain characters, like Sniper Wolf, has very little actual impact on their character development, and feels tacked on.
* There is a distinct lack of dialogue options during conversations or dramatic moments, so you have to go along with whatever Snake says, even if you disagree with his choices.
I just felt too limited and too restricted the whole time I was playing. I would have preferred a branching storyline that is affected by the decisions you make, the ability to do no-kill runs, multiple options for dealing with specific mission objectives, and a greater degree of interaction.
+FrozenWolf150
So basically, MGS3 and V would be more your style?
+Falling Pictures Productions Thanks for the recommendations. I didn't mention earlier that MGS was not my first stealth game, even though I know it introduced millions of gamers to the genre. By the time I got around to MGS, I'd already played Thief and Deus Ex. It was Thief, which came out just a few months after MGS, that cemented my idea of what a stealth game should be. "A true professional doesn't leave a mess, don't kill anybody." Your character is weak and vulnerable, and can't afford to charge out and plow through guards. In addition to no-kill runs, you also had the option of doing "ghosting" runs, where you touch absolutely nothing except the loot.
So when the PC port of MGS became available, I tried to apply the same strategies and the game simply wouldn't let me. I realized I had no choice but to mow down all the guards when Snake says, "Don't think, just shoot!" I had no choice but to murder the boss characters, even though I would have preferred to either sneak past them or talk them down. The only alternate strategy that actually worked was against the Metal Gear itself, where I found you can run between its legs to escape its LOS and then fire the stinger at its chin from behind.
I have actually played Silent Hill 1 several times, and it's one of my favorite survival horror games, along with System Shock 2.
The role of nuclear weapons in history is not all that black-and-white.

These points are debatable obviously, but I specifically said that in the scope of WWII, they're not the most evil thing humans have ever done to each other. The Axis powers, including Japan under Hideki Tojo, murdered millions of innocent people the conventional way. And to this day, there are still historical revisionists, akin to Holocaust deniers, who try to sweep atrocities like the Rape of Nanking under the rug.
If you do get a chance to try out MGS3 and V, let it be known that while you may still have to kill some characters, you can do a very pacifistic run, and in MGS3's case, it may be in your best interest to do so.
+FrozenWolf150 Japan is shit. They still consider those monsters as heroes but that is not excuse for usa killing civilians with nukes. Usa still proud of it, Pilot is so fucking messed up he still consider himself a savior of mankind. Countless propaganda films and cartoon for kids about nuking japan. And nowadaus usa still pretend like usage of nuclear weapon somehow stopped the war. Japan was already surrendering, papers were ready but usa just wanted to show WHOLE world and USSR how strong they are,
Good reason to kill people right? And lets not forget that Japan is still usa slave considering terms of peace. They must serve to usa military on Japan land and ask permission to every big change in internal policy.
22:05 If you call Master Miller when you shot down the Hind D, he won't response
4:18 bad research bro you can use the cigarettes instead of the goggles. One sin for you
You have a good point.
also you can run and shoot you just need to hold the X Button down while shooting your FMAS
Man, we're on a roll with the corrections.
Also im suprised there wasnt a sin for liquid communicating with snake and him not knowing it was burst transmission even though snake calls it out when Fox contacts him
This game had all of the feel good moments that games fail to instill today.
Should have been, at least, 1 sin added back in for the "epic final battle".
Liquid is piloting a vehicle that shows (in the very same cut-scene) that it is capable of destroying pretty much all the cover in the room in a matter of seconds, yet Grey Fox and Solid Snake have time for a nice leisurely conversation about Naomi, and Fox's relationship/history with her. If you watch Liquid in the background, he kinda just aimlessly pokes around all the areas where Fox and Snake aren't, with a level of confusion that is totally unbelievable. They should have been gunned down 8x during that cut-scene, but they are allowed to chat (100% uninterrupted) because the game demands it.
The room they're in just isn't big enough to justify Liquid having such a hard time finding them.
this is my first time watching gaming sins and i'm already loving it. keep up the great work guys!
Why only 1 sin removed for Meryl’s code being on the physical box when you gave -20 sins for so many other points?! That definitely deserved -20 too!
As for the Konami rant at the start. They may be way different today, but the 100 sins added for it was entirely unnecessary.
I figured Miller was liquid as a kid. When you fight Liquid in the Hind and call Master Miller you don't receive a response
If you played MGS5 there was a kid named Eli who is Liquid as a child and he was manipulated by Psycho Mantis which is why he was in Liquid's group
The game doesn't force you to kill wolves. Use the box. Let them pee on it.
Or stun grenades
That last sin is actually worth about 20 sins. I like the story and it does go on and on at the same time.
''Top Sins committed by GCN on MGS''
1. If you complain in an old game how you can't walk, when you don't have to, then you might as well complain the last 2 games how you couldn't walk there either. Walking, sneaking, roll forward, a proper run and gun mechanic were implemented in MGS2 and Twin Snakes.
2. Actually, there is a way to run and gun. press both square and X at the same time. Let go of the square button while X is still pressed down. Now you can run and gun. Press square to fire while running with equipped weapon. Be careful not to let go of X while you are at it.
3. Liquid is the one with superior genes in ''Twin Snakes'' remember that: ''Twin Snakes''. Ocelot didn't reveal to ''mister president'' in MGS1(PS1) that Liquid was the superior one.
BONUS: by the way, how did Grey Fox pick up Naomi when she was little? did he kill them in front of her? or did he kill them at a long distance or... what?
+TheCommentGuy8 It doesn't really matter if it was Twin Snakes or not, Liquid having the superior genes is cannon for the series.
+pdragon619 now what doesn't make sense is that liquid having superior genes but having all the recessive characteristics (blond hair and looking nothing like big boss) where solid has all the dominant traits. I think they have it backwards
Andrew Scheers
Dominant/Recessive genes don't refer to the traits that you personally have. It only refers to whether the gene is located in the first or second allele of a gene. For example being born with pale skin and ginger hair is a recessive gene, and no matter how many people in your family end up with said traits, genetically speaking it's still a recessive trait.
The fact that Big Boss has dark hair ,means that of the two he shows more recessive traits of his genes than dominant ones. That doesn't change that the gene for blonde hair is still the dominant one.
+Andrew Scheers Except Big Boss was born with blonde hair and for whatever reason, he changed it. It's said that Solid Snake had cut and dyed his hair to prevent being too much of a likeness to Liquid Snake (who hadn't changed his appearance and looked like what Big Boss would've looked like if he hadn't modified his appearance) before the Shadow Moses mission (which disregards the continuity of Solid Snake's appearance in the Metal Gear series, but when hasn't MG/MGS disregarded continuity). What I'm also getting the gist of off of revisiting the lore of Metal Gear Solid franchise is that when they talk about dominant and recessive genes, atleast to a higher degree, is they're talking about strengths in combat, as Ocelot says at the end of the game to Solidus Snake (then president of America) "the one with the weaker genes won".
+TheCommentGuy8 just because it is old doesn't mean it can't be criticized for it faults it like saying you can't insult old movies for there effects
I would love to see them nitpick all the mgs games
lmao, how do you forget that you can run and shoot.
Thank you for the compilation of Snake asking so many questions. That made me smile, lmao.
that thermal goggles part was bullshit u can use the cigs
Yeah leave it to a moron to make a sins video
4:21 cigs man. Cigs
right.....fukin rookies
I did that part with out the googles I used the cigs
Same here
I didn't use anything...I always crawled around.
rekt.
Fluorescent Schine I was just thinking that I didn’t find the thermal goggles til the second playthrough and I just crawled everywhere as well
I actually missed the socom in the truck and never got the thermal goggles and still beat the game, the whole time I thought that the game was glitched cause some guides kept mentioning thermal goggles and I had no clue where they were
Please do Snake Eater.
The lader. "+1"
:p
YESSS SNAKE EATER DAN NA NA NA NAAAAAAA NOT FOR HONER BUT FOR UUUIUUUUUUUU SNAKE EATER
J H that was my mom's porn name
Fuck no, MGS3 has ALOT of problems!
They might as well do all of them
Thermogoggles aren't needed to get out of the hanger, use your cigarettes.
Hold the fire button and crouch button to run and fire.
Sorry these are pretty basic points in the game. Otherwise a good video, thanks for the upload.
Dunkey literally made a video calling out on Snake´s constant questions.
Konami shows thier logo
GCN: That's a sin
Adds 100 sins (You went kind on them you know)
gaming sins should really do a sins video on until dawn its the perfect game for this channel lmao
No
Dion Panday Yes
That's dumb. It's meant to have horror cliches
+Jeamus Ken even the director of the game said its influenced by typical horror cliches.
+Ribby That's dumb. Only boring games uses constant cliches. Until Dawn takes the cake.
In MGS you can shoot while running !
X plus weapon button (usually the square button).
136 is literally my favorite...WHY DO YOU NEED THAT MANY CAMERA TURRETS.
BECAUSE RUSSIANS !! (I guess... D:)
In Soviet Russia
Camera shoot YOU
Well damn I wish I had those cameras in my room so no one goes and tries to steal anything
2:58 - My house is not that far from my neighbor's house, but he'd still want to know why I'm sitting on his couch.
GCN can you sin dying light?.
+HellFireMonstersHD Yeah, fuckin' sin that shit! Oh, I created a catchphrase. Feel free to use it!
#Sinthatshit
StygianTraveler141 Well actually the game's cool but it is sinfull
oh yeah and sin LoL
#SinThatShit
HellFireMonstersHD It would be much cooler without the dream sequence and QTEs. Also, that weak-ass ending. So yeah...
#Sinthatshit
StygianTraveler141 Well i have completed it 2 times in total and I dont really remember that there are QTes.Im not bitching or anything just asking cuz i dont remember.But yeah so unexplained ending but i am keen on dying light 2
HellFireMonstersHD When you face Rais as the final boss, you have to use QTEs to be able to "defeat" him. Also, we'll see if Dying Light 2 will solve the mess that the original game created or not.
there should be a sin because the music in the beginning is from policenauts and not metal gear
AudioXVNVX :
How dare hideo Kojima use music from hideo Kojimas game! Hideo should sue
.... 50 sins, eh .....( c'mon , you never use the cigarrete ... and also, you can run and shut)....
SHUT
The point's still valid.
But his points are valid. Resorting to petty insults shows your lack of maturity.
FulanoConPsicosis You know this game is old he could have just forgot.
Yeah... auto... incorrect
It's actually really hard to miss the thermal googles. After Meryl's escape from the cell block, you'll have the SOCOM with you, one way or another (the game just puts it in front of you if you hadn't found it until then).
After that, you can find the thermal googles in the second spot mentioned in the video, where you would find them if you got the SOCOM from the truck.
So there is not any actual design flaw in the game. You just assumed there was.
Seeing the comments, there's no need to remind anyone that thermal googles are not needed to progress through the game, they just make things easier.
What the fuck did I just watch at 2:20?
The meaning of konami of course
The best song ever
A BIG FUCK YOU TO KONAMI BITCH!!!!!!!
Sinning a metal gear solid game? Tough. Sinning the series? Impossible
Yea he could never do it #reversepsychologicals Kappa
Thundernoob88 Not out of some reason like: 'the game is too good to be sinned' but that the entire series....it's just too long.
And there's another one coming out soon!
I would settle for a Meatal Gear solid 2 video
Thundernoob88 Or peace walker, let's see how people treat that.
You can get past the laser section with the cigarettes in case you guys didn't get the thermal goggles, took me a while to find it online.
Or you could just Codec your support team and they'd tell you about the cigarette thing. Do people not normally use the Codec when playing these games?
+PinkCharmander no
You can beat it without thermal googles the first playthrough. You can use the smoke of a cigarette to see the lasers.
"Most peole never played the first two metal gears" *Facepalm*
1:14
+kai cheek Those that are in the NES, where you kill punish snake. The PS 1 it´s not the first game...
Manuel Guzmán no shit
Well, for your comment it seems that you don´t know...
Actually, the NES had a horrendous port of the first game and an unofficial sequel. The MSX had the actual first two games, so yes, it's extremely justified to say that no one played the first two, because the first game was ass on the NES and the second game never made it out of Japan
why aren't you sinning mgs2
so basiccally there were 52 sins (most of em unfair but whatever) and yeah without counting ofcourse the stupidest of reasons to give this game 100 sins
Kazuhira Miller the fiddler Konami is a reason for 100 sins. Fuck Konami
yeah but dont blame the game some folks that dont know how great the game is might form a bad opinion.
I'm surprised that there was no sin for liquid saying
"If you cross this line, you'll fall and you won't survive! But when I fall. I'll survive and make a awesome car chase at the end!"
I'm REALLY surprised it wasn't a sin
