Something I've noticed with Metal Gear stories is the situation as initially presented is always not what the mission goal actually is. This isn't a critique of Metal Gear specifically as it is a trope of espionage fiction as such fiction relies on misinformation and plot twists for drama but the knock on effect as a long term fan is I never take the initial mission briefing at face value anymore. This does open up a possibility for subversion however as if we're conditioned to assume there's an ulterior reason for the mission, having the story play out such that everyone is being honest, while appearing suspicious or everyone is honest and the protagonist is actually the only character with an ulterior motive.

MGS Portable Ops is a bit shakey but that's more down to them trying to fix the entirety of MGS3's moveset onto the PSP's limited buttons. It certainly shows the lessons learned when playing Peace Walker. Hopefully this guy'll play Portable Ops because it's interestingly designed, has some unique quirks, a precursor to Peace Walker and MGSV's base management systems and a great, if soft-canon story (it's officially canon but some parts conflict so you just ignore the conflicting parts). It also has interesting place in the Metal Gear timeline as the first action by Zero to form the Patriots, secure the rest of the Philosopher's Legacy and was the earliest release to hint at Zero's involvement in the Patriots prior to MGS4's release, as well as being the turning point of Big Boss shifting from being just a foot soldier to being a commander.

It's so crazy, that the snake in that game is a clone of the one from metal gear acid 1, who supposedly died. Which doesn't make sense because I played metal gear acid 1 and that snake and teliko made it out alive. Also the snake in metal gear acid 2 has brown eyes while the solid snake from 1 had blue. And liquidus in thermodynamics is the liquidus temperature is when a solid completely becomes a liquid. Just as there was a Solidus snake, there should have been a liquidus snake and metal gear acid 2 should have been liquidus.

I just caught something: they said that this Snake was created from the body of the real Solid Snake on the island....they never specify that it was his "dead" body. The real Solid Snake went on his merry way to climb that mountain with his new battle buddy. That is, unless they specifically say he died....in which case...they surely couldn't be lying or misinformed, right? Also, it's important to remember the fact that Snake is one of several genetic and memetic clones of Big Boss...whose DNA is already out there. A clone of any Snake (aside from memetic clones like Venom Snake and Raiden) is as good as any other. Also, didn't Snake get some kind of injection of something during the first Acid? That could be when and where the genetic sample was taken from his body.

After merely starting 1 and adding the famas from 1-2 upgrade it to a load style and acquiring Venus and her m4s with 8 shots each (cue frank fontaine reveal laugh) Ha Ha Ha. Needless to say those who’ve played deep understand why with mild deck building as in some cost reduction m4 and m4+ and movement plus heals and I was able to smoke extreme boss rush with relative ease. But I have to ask, is that really impressive? Or is this game pretty spongy? I’ve wondered since and nobody’s played this game deep enough to answer that.

Ac!d 2 was such a dramatic improvement over the first game, in terms of gameplay, aesthetics and mechanics. Its just a damn shame the story was such paper thin dog****. I genuinely loved playing it, but i couldn't stand the story. Its a shame too, because I loved the first Ac!d's story. Also that final battle with the Metal Gear Kodoque was such BS, due to its broken ability kill you by walking over you at any time... with no real way to counter it. As a result, despite the VAST improvement's to the gameplay, I prefer the original Ac!d to its sequel by a wide margin, overall. PS. Did you know about the Solid Eye Tobidacid attachment? Basically it was a little cardboard stereoscope goggle attachment for the PSP that allowed you to play the game on your PSP in 3D. It was kind of a predecessor to Smartphone VR Headsets. Was pretty cool... just a pain to use, as it essentially meant holding the PSP to your face while playing it, and it slid around too easily.

You can tell this team absorbed Kojima's essence, because the doctor lady has boob physics and there's a lot of really dumb names and designs for characters. Also, Snake's supposed death is quite simple to explain: they're lying about Snake dying at the end of Acid 1. At some point afterwards, his DNA was taken in a similar manner to Big Boss's for the Les Enfants project. They're lying now to keep the fake Snake from going looking for the real Snake, because that'd be a real nightmare for anyone trying to build Metal Gears.
