I want to make a quick plug for Revengeance ITT. It's not a stealth game like the typical Metal Gear game, but, rather, an action title developed by Platinum Games (makers of such fine games as Bayonetta, Vanquish, and The Wonderful 101). It takes place in the MGS timeline after MGS4 and focuses entirely on Raiden (the main character of MGS2) and his war against an evil group known as Desperado. The game, while short, features a hype soundtrack and some truly satisfying boss fights. My personal favorite part of the fights is when the bosses enter their "second form" or whatever you'd like to call it, lyrics come in for the song. It really punches it up a bit.

It is not essential at all to the upcoming GOTY The Phantom Pain, but if you complete your MGS July games and want to give a game with some different pacing a shot, check it out! It's got some extremely cheesy one liners that rank up there with Leon calling Saddler small time.

The best boss fight in the MGS series is The End.

Can't you give the fear poisoned food or something

It's a good strategy. I was doing a nonlethal run and that included bosses. The Fear is one of the hardest because he will shoot food down and eat it when you get his stamina low, so what I had to do was go around and shoot all the food out of the arena and pick it up to eat, then throw down my own poisoned/rotten food. It was very time consuming.

Plus the games, despite being out of chronological order, have call backs and references to prior games, so you have those little treats to look forward to as well.

In Training posted:

I never knew you could (MGS3 character spoilers) have a duel with Ocelot during his boss fight. I triggered it when we were both one shot from death and he walked up and the moment I hit square he domes me and I died. It was loving sick. Apparently if you have the SAA on a NG+ file he will notice and start showing off and you can just spin revolvers at each other for a while, lmfao

this is really cool

i just realized that they are having a players guide come out the same day the phantom pain releases. that means someone who is not on the development team is playing this game to 100 percent and writing about it.
