Metal Gear, RP, Christmas - In That Order

So, I started Metal Gear 3 yesterday. I...really don't have much to say at this point. I started it a touch too close to bed, as I didn't realize that 'playing' it meant 'a small fraction where you can actually move Snake, but mostly you're watching a movie'. Which I only really understood bits and pieces of, as I was tired when I was playing. I grasp the actual mission, which I suppose is the important stuff. The random information about Godzilla and Snake's penis? Not so much getting what that has to do with anything.

Essentially, I haven't actually played enough to comment on the gameplay or plot or combat or anything much at all. It's a damn pretty game, though, I can say that. And I find it funny, so I just hope it was meant to be funny.

I'll be playing more today, and will hopefully get to some actual playing. And now I'm playing about 5 games at once. I have a problem.

Grocery shopping this morning, laundry today, the usual. Though all kinds of fun and hilarious and horrible things are going on at my various RPs. Christmas season has hit at CU, and Henry's...well, let's just say he's in a very playful mood. :D [livejournal.com profile] damned is a bit more full of angst.

Speaking of RPs.... *prods [livejournal.com profile] rewritten folks* Have we hit another little dead period?

Anyway, I've got to get dressed and whatnot to head to the store. Thank you everybody who left presents under the tree, I got a kick out of them! :D Save for whoever it was who gave me a lump of coal and told me I sucked. No, I lie, I did get a kick out of that. How can you take an un-capitalized 'u suck' seriously?

I'M NOT DEAD! Have just been a little busy with eating, shopping, Christmas decorating and I've got a houseload of people descending upon me this weekend *facepalm*

I'm not sure what we've got coming up next? I think Shana was going to talk to Keman the morning after, but I'm not sure if Emi threw up a log or not yet...

MGS3

OH GOD

Yeah, MGS3 is supposed to be funny.

Have you got the Snake Eater version or the Subsistence version? The Subsistence version has a bonus disc with Metal Gear 1 and 2 on it (not Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2, the late-eighties-early-nineties MSX games).

I would just like to make it known that Metal Gear Solid 3 is hands down THE most beautiful, heartbreaking, incredible game I've ever played. It is right up there with Ocarina of Time. It literally made me laugh and made me cry. It's a masterpiece.

Give it some time. ♥

MGS certainly has a humorous quality to it, so you'll probably be laughing at parts. But uhh, it's most likely going to tug at your heartstrings, too. Anyway, the games are fantastic and I'm so excited that you're trying one out. :3
