Anyone else catch the Wilhelm scream right at the end during the top-down section of Rearmed? Sweet.

Hope no one pirates Guitar Hero: Metallica, :P

Excellent video. Have been playing through all the games in chronological order in preparation for MGS4. Just finished Portable Ops, so Metal Gear is next for me. I'm glad Subsistence had professionally translated console version of Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 on it because it was lame many years ago getting a stupid MSX emulator to work right. I eventually did, and was able to experience MG1 & 2 in all their fan-translated MSX glory, but I love the new PS2 versions.

Of course, having been introduced to the series by MGS, it was awesome to finally play the fistfight between Snake and Gray Fox in the minefield that played such a big role in MGS.

Made my Grade 9 Science teacher cry many years ago by standing up and stating to the whole class that she was evil right in front of her (I had previously caught her talking to the Vice Principle about how crappy we all got on some stupid assignment she hadn't given us proper criteria for).

Quest for Glory 4: Shadows of Darkness. It was rushed for the holiday market, and had SO MANY bugs, that Sierra had to release multiple patches, which was VERY rare back in 1993/1994.

Multiple bugs made the game crash or unwinnable... It wasn't until about 3 years ago that someone online finally removed two terrible bugs from the game that crashed it instantly (And during fight sequences that you couldn't skip if you wanted to beat the game).

Ick. Equilibrium was super terrible. Kurt Wimmer just tried to throw as much symbolism and crap into the movie without even trying to figure out what it meant, so the whole thing was a giant mess of visuals that were not consistent.

Plus there was tons of plot holes. For example, if there was supposed to be no emotions, and a huge part of the plot revolved around taking pills to repress your emotions, why was Taye Diggs laughing and joking and mugging for the camera the entire film??

Snatcher. Give me downloadable Snatcher episodes on WiiWare, ala Sam and Max on PC or something. The first 3 could be a remake of the original game. Then the story continues.

WayForward is awesome. Shantae is one of the best, if not THE best GameBoy Color games out there (Not counting DX games). Sigma Star Saga was pretty great too. Can't wait for this.

Played it for 3 hours today after picking up, with my girlfriend snatching my DS away every time I was stuck. Great fun, and I hope it sells like crazy.

Hopefully this will mean Ubisoft will start pressuring Microsoft to get PoP 2&3 working on the 360. I know MS said that backwards compatibility was winding down, but that doesn't mean that there isn't one last update coming in the next year. I don't want to have to bust out my giant Xbox 1 just to play WW and T2T, especially considering they'll look like ass on my TV (480i on an HDTV... Yuck!)
