    Loke: Don't know yet, but from what I hear it does. They better give me my damn stealth suit or bandana too, if there's any dogtag crap I'm gonna be angry. :P I'll let you know when I find out, probably later today. :)

    Nil_IQ: Extra fight? No, but the fight did seem to take a LOT longer this time around (punching damaged really toned down I guess). There is another "fight" in a cutscene, but you just watch it, that was probably what you had heard.

    BigMadSteve: You went forward one game with your question, so I went back one with mine. :P And it was MSX2 to be specific ;)

    Galeia or something (I can't spell it right) was the Air Force base the bombers took off from AFAIK.

    I'll hit you with an easy one: What elite military group did Liquid Snake serve in the Gulf War?

    Gah! I thought I would have pwnt you with that question.

    I can't be 100% sure on this one. I think it's either Foxhound or Outer Heaven Inc.

    What did Otacon originally think Metal Gear was made for?

    Automatic missile defense system or something along those lines.

    Sorry to jump in but wasn't Liquid working for the SAS if I remember his personell file correctly.

    As for Otacon, I think it was to shoot down incomming nukes, some sort of theatre I think was the term he used.

    I have a gamecube, yet I will not get this game until:

    A: My tax refund check arrives, because I need money
    B: Until after finals are done, becuase I need one less thing to distract me whilst trying to study.

    But after all of that, SHADOW MOSES, I HAVE RETURNED!

    I never finished MGS:1, but I thought MGS 2 was excellent...despite everyone here thinks its sucks. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo--> Sure it was far fetched...but still a good game.

    BZZZT. Liquid was a part of the SAS. (gj Josiah Bartlet)

    And Otacon originally thought Metal Gear was a mobile TMD (Theatre Missle Defense). :)

    In the original MGS1, what did you get for Snake upon beating the game TWICE on the same save file?

    and zig: there won't be one. Before you comment, be sure to read my disclaimer. ;)

    Tuxedo?

    But was that for just beating the game twice OR getting both the bandana and the stealth suit?

    So...MGS3....you can eat snakes and stuff. Yeah. Um. It doesn't look like the locale...uh..changes much, though.

    "It's a mobile TMD, it's designed to shoot down nuclear missiles. Purely for defence purposes of course."

    "Liar! I already know that Metal Gear is nothing more than a nuclear-equipped walking battle tank!"

    Ph34r my quoteage. And damn you for beating me to it. Yeah, the other one was Galena, I remember because it's also where the diversionary F-16s take off from... only to be shot down by a Hind. I know liquid is supposed to be good, but damn those pilots must have sucked <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    *edit*

    O.k, I have one. There's a rumour going around that there is a 3rd ending to the original MGS, but no-one has unlocked it yet; is it true? I doubt it somehow, but meh. I personally didn't want to play through the game 50 times to find out if it's true you get to plat mini-metal-gear if you play that many times <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    gj Burr, that is correct. :)

    That rumor isn't true. I've beaten MGS about 9 or 10 times on the same savegame file, nothing is different after getting Bandana, Stealth Suit, and the Tux. So I'd say no, you can file that with "Sheng Long as secret boss in Street Fighter 2". :P

    p.s. its "nuclear-equipped walking death-mobile." ;)

    Does Psycho Mantis refer to saved game files on your memory card?

    I'm not sure about this one. He claims to read your mind. I always got you are very cautious because I completed the game like 8 times that way. Maybe he does. I know that he can detect dual shock controllers and you can switch the controller.

    I honestly don't remember hearing about Liquid being in the SAS. They probably said that during the briefing.

    Here's a nice easy one. What's the only kind of round that's able to penetrate Metal Gear Rex's armour according to Otacon?
  • BurrBurr Join Date: 2002-11-19 Member: 9358Members
    Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of other games that are on your memory card (Like in the PS one he refered to some Konami games if they were saved on the same memory card)
  • BigMadSteveBigMadSteve Join Date: 2003-02-12 Member: 13472Members
    I never had any other Konami games on my card so I wouldn't know <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Yes he does :)

    "I see you enjoy adventure games... You've been playing The Legend of Zelda, haven't you?"

    "I see you enjoy action games... You've been playing Super Mario Sunshine, haven't you!"

    There's a 3rd game it mentions but it was something silly I didn't play. It shoulda been Metroid Prime, but meh. I think it was F-Zero but I'm not sure.

    Sadly, the "Hideo Kojima respects Mr. Miyamoto too" line isn't in the game, I guess that was for the E3 trailer only :(

    I couldn't get the vent trick to work, but I don't remember it all that well, so maybe I wasn't doing it right. The bathroom trick does still work though ;)

    Oh and as far as what penetrates Rex, my guess would be depleted uranium but that's a wild guess. :P

    Here's a toughie: The mercs that were contracted to the Genome Army, where did they all originally come from (that is, where were they before the US Govt. bought out their contracts)?
  • Nil_IQNil_IQ Join Date: 2003-04-15 Member: 15520Members
    The answer to Steve's question is a HEAT (high explosive anti-tank) round. You couldn't get THAT? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    No idea for DOOM's question; probably Zanzibar.

    And yes, it IS "death mobile", you are quite right <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    It's a shame though, because my MGS1 disk is scratched beyond repair. I can still play it if I do a minimum install, but it's missing some fairly critical sound files, including <span style='color:red'>**SPOILER**</span> The one where Nayomi is revealed as a spy, and Liquid's big long speech on top of metal gear. <span style='color:red'>**SPOILER**</span>

    How did this happen? Well I was having a new CD ROM put in, and I kind of forgot to take the disc out first, and rather than just plug it in to another computer and take it out that way, I decided to go in with a pair of plyers. Not a great idea on reflection.

    The question seems a bit ambiguous to me. Would it be, in Naomi's words: "Those rent-a-war ****'s at Outer Heaven Inc"? If it's the genes then they came from Big Boss.

    I seriously thought you would have got that armour question. Oh well. I'll hit you with a tough one to return the favour <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    What university did Vulcan Raven go to?
  • DOOManiacDOOManiac Worst. Critic. Ever. Join Date: 2002-04-17 Member: 462Members, NS1 Playtester
    I got no idea on that one. I don't ever remember him mentioning a university in the game... O.o

    Oh and Nil_IQ, you're aware that every CD-ROM ever made has a pinhole in it that you can push a paper clip or something into to eject the CD tray even w/o power, right?

    Also the missing sound file is something that MGS does on Windows XP. It just doesn't work with it :( Later in the game (right before you fight Rex) the game actually gets stuck in a state and it won't trigger the next cutscene no matter what, even after you leave the area and etc.

    Neither do I. If you give your advisors a call while fighting bosses they usually give you some background information. I think it was Naomi that tells you.

    Are you sure it doesn't work on XP? It's been a while since I played MGS but I'm pretty certain it worked. Microsoft also had a hand in porting it from PS to PC so there is probably a patch.
  • DOOManiacDOOManiac Worst. Critic. Ever. Join Date: 2002-04-17 Member: 462Members, NS1 Playtester
    I usually play through MGS about every 4 or 5 months, and when I moved to XP it suddently stopped working, so yeah. I'm pretty sure.
  • RaVeRaVe Join Date: 2003-06-20 Member: 17538Members
    Don't know about that issue DOOM, MGS runs fine on mine, and it runs on WinXP Pro, without making any compatibility changes.

    Problem is mine doesn't have sound or videos....only ingame sfx (footsteps,enemies,etc) and music.
