I had a battle with #2 this morning, and I lost. Wait, you're talking about video games?

Both, if you put it that way...

I'm not even sure that's Earth. When do the events of Halo 3 take place?

Siberian Huskies give you the creeps, or just their asses?

Haha, I think it has to do with that entire monologue. Director Kojima always likes to give that "creepy fireplace chat" at the very end of the old games. It sort of kills the mood after one of the coolest motorcycle chase scenes I've ever played through. It's like saying, " I beat the game and all I got was this cheesy FMV sequence."

I actually enjoyed it, greatly <.<

Even if they were easy, who has the time?

I kept saying that to myself whenever I keep trying to beat Final Fantasy 8. It's an easy battle system, but it's like an RPG marathon! Urgh.

How could Strider not be on the Virtual Console? Also, where the hell is Strider 3?

Yeah, it's a sin for Nintendo to forget about Strider. And I'll bet anything that they'll forget about it even when the Wii U comes out.

I really miss Hiryu. He was one of the characters who really made sci-fi ninjas look extremely badass. Even the cheap NES version had the killer feel of a side-scroller RPG, like an 8-bit version of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

He needs to appear in more games. I can't just play as him in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. I need mohr!

A Metroid-style action/adventure game starring Strider Hiryu.... *mouth waters*

I only beat #1 once on the PS1 and maybe twice on GameCube, but I'll never forget the game or that ending song. Good stuff!

Even though MGS3 was my favorite, I still love the first game and its action movie chase sequence at the end. Kojima really had a great way of building all the suspense with Liquid. He's like the Terminator!
