I just wanted to address one of your gripes. The reason why Snake so often repeats information he is given is due to how Japanese communicate. Backchanneling or repeating what one has heard is a vital component of communication in Japan. So, rather than being a problem with the original writing, it’s really a localization problem. Source: I live in Japan, speak Japanese, and teach linguistics at a Japanese university. Anyway, I love these videos, man!

Despite what most people think, I don't consider The Twin Snakes to be a bad game or even a bad remake. Kojima stated that MGS1 is a parody on action movies (originally, there wasn't even going to be another sequel after this game) so I can appreciate the over-the-top cutscenes in the remake more than others: it was something he wanted to do in the original game but couldn't due to hardware limitations. It's undoubtedly an interesting take but the original is much easier to get a hold of and the level design of Shadow Moses wasn't made with the improved controls and mechanics from MGS2 in mind, having a detrimental effect on the difficulty.

@AluminumFusion22

Жыл бұрын

It does take away from the game's more emotional moments, like Meryl's speech after getting shot by Sniper Wolf or Sniper Wolf's last words as she dies. The English localization was surprisingly great for a PS1 game and it's obvious that even the voice actors took the material seriously, so having the remake be this over-the-top parody sort of takes the wind out of the sails of what Kojima is trying to say.

The Gamecube version's cutscenes are actually what Kojima wanted to do on the PS1 version but, there was obvious hardware limitations.

The letter "L" does not exist in Japanese Katakana. So whenever a word with an "L" in it is translated into Japanese, the "L" is replaced with an "R". So when translating Japanese into English, one has to guess whether or not an "R" is actually an "L" and vice versa. That is why Vergil is referred to as "Nelo Angelo" in DMC1 and holly is referred to as "Horry" here.

And that came from the guy who was still playing platformers on my SNES before jumping into this game.

About the Twin Snakes crazy cutscenes, those were the original ideas Kojima had and could not do for the PS1 hardware limitations.

+Ivan Simpson Holy shit I loved that game. I played Ghost Babel after I played MGS1 recently and oh boy is it a great game. Ghost Babel felt like a 2d version of Metal Gear Solid, which basically makes it... a straight up reimagining of MSX2 Metal Gear 2. Now that I think about it, the setting is pretty much same as MG2...

+MCProductions thank you for the information. I wish I could play metal gear 2 solid snake. I just beat metal gear for the NES. It was a good game in my opinion. I was super disappointed that I didn't even get to fight metal gear.

John, I just want you to know that your Snake voice is the best thing I have ever heard, ever.

Part of my childhood was enjoying this game. I remember being blown away with this when I first played it.

Congratulations. You actually did it the way the game developers wanted.

Can't believe i played this fantastic game when I was 8 and made me get into the series at such a young age thanks hideo for the memories.

A+ thanks for all the effort you put in. Also bonus credit for the nose flare 28:59

I definitely like the scenes better in the original. They weren't as over the top and were overall had more emotional scenes.

12:06 Here's lies Kazuhira Miller Played like a damn fiddle

I think one thing you should have mentioned were the added jokes. Yea snakes reaction to forgetting meryls codac was over the top. But when Sniper wolf catches you before the torture. The added scenes there were bloody HILARIOUS! XD

now I’m just imagining Snake going to a soldier while pulling out a camera and saying “hey, mind if I take a picture? need it for my job” with it being a disguise mechanic to get some goofy dialogue and a peaceful approach depending on the area

I would have kept the kangaskan

I seriously thought that Colonel Campbell was black for years

I love the difference in narrative between MGS and twin snakes. it's like the original is Snakes account of what happened, and Twin snakes is Otacons action movie fantasy memory of how it happened

God thanks for this series. Everything was easy to understand and presented very well. Thanks again. I'm 23 and I never really understood why my older brother liked this game/series so much.

meeeeeeetaaaaaaaaaaal geeeeeeeaaaar.

You think MGS4 had a lot of cutscenes? Xenosaga HAS OVER 20 HOURS OF THEM! Well there's over 100 hours of game play so I guess it's still pretty far from a movie, 1 hour of cutscene for 5 hours of gameplay.

@tyronetiggums6441

8 жыл бұрын

Yeah, MGS4 is 75% cutscenes and some of them are even worse and longer than in MGS2. The entirety of Act 1 alone has 90 minutes of mandatory cutscenes and Codec calls (ones that have important plot information). For comparison in amount of pure cutscenes (so not counting the time spent in gameplay segments), the Tanker chapter in MGS2 clocks in at 45 minutes and at 90, Raiden's getting ready to disarm the C4 bombs. In MGS3, most cutscene time has been diverted to the Codec conversations but even then, at 90 minutes the Virtuous mission is done and the plot's really starting to begin with the Ocelot encounter during the Snake Eater mission.

***** A basic summary of it but it's completely true so what's wrong with retelling it? The 75% statistic is a rough estimate based on personal experiences with the game however.

I like how generic this comment is

From what i've heard the cutscenes in Twin Snakes ended up like that because the cutscenes were directed by a Japanese director who is famous for his Matrix Style action scenes.

"But if you're into the more down to earth tone of Metal Gear Solid." Johnny, I cannot WAIT to see your reaction to the absolutely ridiculous amazing-ness that is MGR:Revengeance.

Jonny just keeps getting better and better

i prefer the "bad" ending over the "good"

I have Super Smash Bros. Brawl to thank for raising my awareness to Metal Gear. Although I've never actually played any of these games, they look promising and seem to deliver well. I can't wait to see what the rest of this marathon brings!

That ending sigh perfectly sums up my feelings when I try to explain the MGS 2 storyline to people.

I just realized we are the nanomachines.

27:13 I couldn't stop laughing.

"Questions?"

Johnny forgot to mention the "Snake? Snake? Snaaaake!" line that shows up when Snake dies.

BajikaMan It's about as iconic as Snake himself. It followed him all the way to his appearance in Super Smash Bros Brawl. Also made WatchMojo's Top 10 list for "Best catchphrases in video games".

I'm loving the new set. It was so jarring going from your old set up to this instantly but I really like it. :)

After seeing this I might consider playing this game. I keep hearing things about the franchise but I never had a reason to. Though I'm not sure whether to get the remake or the original.

+Red Lantern Reviews I disagree with starting in the middle of the series, especially when the graphics and features are a major upgrade from prior games. I say start with MGS1 and work your way up. You'll appreciate it that way more and every game going forward has call backs to previous games. Hell, MGS 3 isn't as interesting or fun if you don't have the relationship with Ocelot from the prior games first.

FUCKING FINALLY.

Two other things I wish you talked about was the game's OST and the little touches of Shadow Moses. The soundtrack for MGS1 was always so hypnotic and immersive to me, it really made Shadow Moses seem real. That music, paired with the snow effects, footprints, cold breath effect, really gave the game and Shadow Moses a level of atmosphere that I can't really use words to describe. The threat of a nuclear launch seemed real playing through it. As for the little touches, you covered it somewhat in terms of the optional story stuff, but I wish you showed a couple more of the neat little easter eggs and hidden things like seeing Liquid's parachute in the snow field and getting a codec call about it. I know it'd have made the video even longer, but the soundtrack was just such a key element of the game for me that it's sad to see neglected. Great review though Johnny, interested in hearing what you think about MGS2.

I think my favorite part of the Twin Snakes version is when that one soldier tells the DARPA chief to "shut up in there, will ya?" Instead of simply ducking, Snake *suspends himself on the ceiling corner with his arms and legs like Spider-Man*.
