Same for gameplay. It took several games for people to convince him that his motion sickness wasn't a good reason for MGS games to have a lovely camera and controls.

You mean the ones where you can do certain things to make Meryl appear in her underwear in cutscenes, or press a POV button to get Snakes view as he gives a death stare to Eva's cleavage?

Yeah, and that's more restrained than vagina bombs and Quiet. Wasn't saying the early games were completely devoid of it.

mgs 2 and 3 were fantastic. mgs2 didn't make sense to us back then but now everything it predicted came true regarding the "drowning in a sea of halftruths and content without context." MGS3 is just a great story about the changing times and the horrors of nationalism.

Reminder that MGS4 had four bosses that were supposed to be tragic war victims, but they are also designed after fashion models, wearing skintight suits, and you can make them pose like objects for you to ogle.

Kojima is a creep.
