Part 5 of a retrospective on Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid series. Featuring anything from Snake's Revenge to Survive, as well as deep lore about his relationship with Konami. Very cool.

The emulator app you'll need is PPSSPP. I don't remember the settings that get it running the best, but if I remember correctly, it already runs better standard than the first Ac!d did for some reason. And all the Solid Eye stuff can be done with a cheap VR thing you could get at Wal-Mart.

If you approach the Acid series mostly as a turn based stealth game, you're gonna have a rough time. When I first came across Acid 1 I felt the same way you did with the whole system because I had no understanding of how these type of card games worked. After I got into card games like Hearthstone, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Shadowverse, I went back and I absolutely loved it.

Acid 2 looks great overall and I actually like *most* of Snake's design here, but holy shit how did the game get all the way through development and to release with those, like... Camo chaps or whatever the fuck those are on his thighs? It looks like the guy put on full combat gear and then decided to wear his boxers on the outside. You can't even try to ignore how stupid it looks, either, since the light greenish colors clash completely with the entire rest of his blue/black scheme.

It was. I did that thing with the broadcast color test screens, cuz those usually show up with tv signal done broke, and these games kinda done broke too, so it seemed fitting, and therefor the credit sequence fit with the theme too. ...though realistically, I was just kinda tired editing this video and didn't know what else to include lol.

Gave you thumbs up although you didn't like the games. The video is your personal view on it. In my opinion they are way better than you present them. I agree, the story is weird. But I really loved the gameplay. For instance, life itself is by chance. Why should it be a problem in this game. Just deal with the cards you get. The empty areas you showed are rare (as I remember). There is a challenge behind almost every corner. I recommend to try the games, play a while, understand the mechanics and then the game gets you (or not). A lot of people will love them, too.

Couldn't get into Metal Gear Acid, but I loved the soundtrack. It really reminded me of MGS1. It's like how I would have imagined a sequel to that game to sound before MGS2 existed. Back in those quaint days before we knew the existence of Raiden, or post-modernism.

Everyone makes the same stupid incorrect points. There is a save system mid game. You access it through the same menu you end your turn. As for the waiting for cards, you should have added cards that let you draw or discard your hand for 6 new cards. Literally most of the complaints about this game are user error issues. Am I the only AC!D master???
