The cheering sound effect has to be one of the funniest parts of the entire game.

[@Observer413]

14:54 "when you realize that the song is playing for the main villain and not you" the song playing("it has to be this way") is often considered Armstrongs theme because it plays during "his" fight. However the way the song is played in this fight, with vocals stopping and just instrumental version playing when Raiden loses the sword, like Sams theme would stop with lyrics when he lets go off the sword until he picks it up again, means it's Raidens boss theme. Raiden is the final boss of that game. This is further consolidated in Jetstream Sam DLC, where during Armstrongs fight "collective consciousness"(song from 1st phase of armstrong fight in his metal gear) is being played, not "it has to be this way".

[@Cypeq]

Oh it's all correct but the silly conclusion of Raiden being a boss... c'mon man, get a grip you're not playing as Armstrong but as Jack. 2nd Phase song is Jack's theme indeed also a reflection on the past. I love that those songs are actually written from the character's point of view.

Mother of All Omelette Recipe: Beat the eggs: Use two or three eggs per omelette, depending on how hungry you are. Beat the eggs lightly with a fork. Melt the butter: Use an 8-inch nonstick skillet for a 2-egg omelette, a 9-inch skillet for 3 eggs. Melt the butter over medium-low heat, and keep the temperature low and slow when cooking the eggs so the bottom doesn’t get too brown or overcooked. Add the eggs: Let the eggs sit for a minute, then use a heatproof silicone spatula to gently lift the cooked eggs from the edges of the pan. Tilt the pan to allow the uncooked eggs to flow to the edge of the pan. Fill the omelette: Add the filling-but don’t overstuff the omelette-when the eggs begin to set. Cook for a few more seconds Fold and serve: Fold the omelette in half. Slide it onto a plate with the help of a silicone spatula.
