Can we discuss actual retro gaming instead of has-been publishers selling their old games back to you again for easy profit?

I'm so tired of being relentlessly and aggressively marketed to because

"You enjoyed this thing we did 20+ years ago that was unique back then, but we're scared of risks now so we want you to buy that thing again please. Remember how much you liked it? Also we want to sue people for enjoying the original if we can."

...so tired.

Literally 1 paragraph article and a tweet. Journalism?

[-] Kain1@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

At least it's on point. Unless you want the author to write what he ate for breakfast today.

They aren't paid enough to care.

Wow, people here forgot the most important part!

Fuck Konami

Fuck Konami

Sincere question: what did Konami do?

I remember loving the idea of having the MGS2 mechanics, specifically first person aiming, but the limited buttons on the GameCube made using it super awkward lol

[-] cfi@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Also the first person view made a bunch of fights stupid easy

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 1 month ago

Surely the fight against Liquid at the end would be harder in first person.

[-] cfi@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Oh its not locked to first person, you just have the option to look and shoot in first person, like in MGS2

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 1 month ago

I am familiar; I just mean if you wanted to do a challenge run entirely in 1st person haha

[-] heavy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

Just port the twin snakes to something other than the GameCube and call it a day.

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

I don't think they can because Nintendo published that one.

[-] sparky@lemmy.federate.cc 5 points 1 month ago

Kind of surprising that it hasn’t happened yet, honestly. I feel like this is one of the few remaining big PS1/2 titles that hasn’t gotten a remake. Do Syphon Filter next!

babe wake up! it's time for your 4pm mgs1 remake

[-] taiyang@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Actually, hijacking comments for a question; I'm thinking of playing MGS all the way through for the that time. Should I do PC version of PSX or emulated GameCube twin snakes version (or emulated PSX?).

RetroAchievements recently released an achievement set for the GameCube version, so all three check the metagaming box for me. Is Twin Snakes the best or is it lacking anything major?

[-] Bartsbigbugbag@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

I prefer og psx, personally. I’ve never played the PC version though.

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

If you want the retro challenge, play the PlayStation version. If you want an easier time, crazier characters, and just enjoy the game, play twin snakes. It plays a lot more like MGS 2.
