actually, there is a reason for long passwords. that's the only way you'll get to keep the items you had when you got there. in other words, when we didn't have Memory Cards or console memory, that was the closest thing we got to save our progress in cartridges without inner memory. remember how in Zombies Ate My Neighbors passwords were only four letters long? and when you entered them, you'd get to the stage you want with only the clothes on your back and the crappy water gun?

Ok. A word about passwords. Each digit in a password is to tell the console, what items you have, how many consumables you have ( ammo, healing items,) how many permanent items you have aquired, your game progress ( bosses killed, areas you have cleared, etc). So when you put all that info together in a password, you get a huge set of nunbers and letters. I, for one, was so glad when the Legend of Zelda introduced a battery to save game info and make passwords an unfond memory. 😂

@DragonHeart53

pat442389 The reason it's "some plastic explosive" and not "some plastic explosives" is because the item in question is a single lump of the plastic explosive. so it's one explosive item. for example, C4 is a plastic explosive. and because of this, it's in the form of a dough like material that can be packed together and molded or shaped. so it's a single unit of explosive. like one stick of TNT. And the reason it's refurted to as "some" plastic explosive, is for the same reason as C4 being in the form of lumps of moldable dough. it's just a portion of explosive material packed into a single unit. so what snake had found was a single packed up explosive, made of a C4 like explosive material.

Zelda appears briefly when you get the Ocarina of Time in MM. Link's Awakening would be a better example as she didn't appear at all, but only mentioned by name in the beginning of that game.

The guy at the beginning said "I'm getting sleepy" at 7:37, so there was clearly a different version where the game was proof read by humans, not monkeys

Punching them as compared to raping them and having them around to perform sexually, are three different things, but he did neither, so you failed the force x3.

I would love to see the AVGN visit the Metal Gear Solid games. Maybe have a marathon very similar to how he did the Castlevania Marathon.

@Bauglir100

Жыл бұрын

It would be great to do that, considering that the early Metal Gear series just got confirmed for the Switch. But I doubt it will happen, since I don't think James has the same emotional attachment to Metal Gear that he has for Castlevania or Contra.

I could spend the rest of my life watching AVGN.

10:00 the fact that Big Boss forget to tell you things is because he actually wants to kill you. So its not a flaw, just the story messing you up :P

By far, one of my favourite AVGN episodes.

Metal Gear was one of my fave NES games from back in the day, loved all the different weapons, great classic

0:00 is a siren which was also used in a couple of “MTN Gang” episodes as NYPD cop cars.

8:52 - the transceiver trick works, but it's based on one hell of a glitch. What happens is that if the trap is opening, and you go to the transceiver screen, the trap stops opening. When you leave the transceiver screen, the trap is no longer visible, but is as open as it was when you went to the transceiver screen. The trick is to switch to the transceiver as soon as the trap starts to open. It'll still kill you if you step on it, but it's a lot smaller, and won't open any wider. There's actually one spot in the game where you have to use the trick to progress without fail. What the fuck, indeed!

10:10 Well, Big Boss always wanted for Snake to die, he even starts giving you wrong directions towards the end of the game and disappears all together, part of the story

+Cinemassacre I bet people remember the PS1 version, because of the game over screen

I know I've watched every AVGN episode, but I forget watching this one so it's almost like a new episode?

For those who do not know the chronological order goes: Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops (considered non-canon) Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain Metal Gear Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake Metal Gear Solid Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons Of Liberty Metal Gear Solid 4 Still probably one of my favourite game franchise ever! :D

Portable Ops is still considered canon by Kojima, though he does seem very reluctant about it. Possibly due to the fact he didn't have a hand in its creation.

Today I learned that the song Justin Whang always plays during his videos is that song from Metal Gear, which is played at the beginning of the video here. Hearing James talk over it is so surreal, but now I’m thinking, wouldn’t it be awesome to hear James do a “Tales from the Internet” video?
