Make Peanut Suffer!

[Peanut]

So, this thread is all about making me play a game from a series I dislike. Everyone knows I'm a hater, but I'm a hater with reasoning. I play a game before I openly bash it. So here's the deal, I'm going to put up a list of games that I've played little to nothing of, but are from some of my most hated and/or disliked game series. You all vote on which one I should play through. And I mean all the way through. I'll do it.

LET THE SUFFERING BEGIN!

[Barkworm]

I'd say MGS3 but you should definitely buy "Subsistence". And if you want to check out a Castlevania game it should be "Dawn of Sorrow". If you don't like that you need to die. I'm serious.

[Peanut]

LISTEN! JUST VOTE, GOD DAMN IT!

There's a good chance I'm going to hate whatever it is that gets picked anyways, so I'm not really looking for the "best" game from the series or whatever. That being said, if MGS3 was picked, I probably would have got the Subsistence version anyways. And I just picked that Castlevania because it was the only one I've heard about being released recently.

[Mecha Cow]

Metroid Prime is suffering in video game form. You can't go wrong. Or right, I guess.

[Jed]

I voted Metroid, I really like it so maybe if you played through it you might enjoy it more than you thought... but I doubt it, lol.

[Barkworm]

If you hated MP, there's no way in hell that you'd enjoy MP2.

[Jed]

I thought he only played a bit of MP and gave up on it?

[Aelia]

I'll say Resident Evil, BUT just to be a bitch, I'll make you play the remakes for the Gamecube. Have fun trying to figure out how to move around! Then I'll let you play RE4.

[ThirdMarioBro]

I voted Castlevania. Even I'm not that fond of Prime 2. If you want a really good Castlevania and none of this anime art crap, go with Symphony of the Night on the XBLA in a couple of weeks with its timeless gameplay, surround sound music and now high def sprites. Portrait of Ruin is pretty good though.

You've inspired me. I'm about to play through MGS1 & 2 for the sake of my own suffering, so what the hell. Let's all boil.

[Brodie]

Play the GC RE1 remake, and RE4.

[Spitfire]

I dare you to play Resident Evil 3 Nemesis or Zero for the GC. You'd loath those games.

I'd also dare you to play DMC 3 on Dante Must Die Mode. You already dislike the game as it is haha you'd want to break the disk.

This is the stupidest thing I have read all month. Pushing forward makes you move forward at all times, no matter how the screen is angled. It actually flows well once your used to it. Your just an idiot.

I'm not going to go into an argument with this, because I already know I'm an idiot. I just couldn't figure it out because back then I had just gotten my GC and had rented the remake of Resident Evil for it. I got fed up because I couldn't figure out how to aim Jill's gun and Chris Redfield's starting weapon sucked. On top of the my controller was broken. I had really sworn off any future RE games, until I played Resident Evil 4 which would probably be one of the best games I've ever played.

[愛]

Play Resident Evil REmake, jerk. Or you could go for the best out of all of them and play RE2. Awesome game.

And you're my bro. Just listen to me and play RE.

[ThirdMarioBro]

And you're my whore. Play Castlevania or I come to your house, force you to play it, and drink all your beer.

[Ra]

Resident Evil, FTW in my opinion. Now play the game, damn it! Play until your thumbs fall off and your eye balls roll in their sockets! :evilgrin:

[Peanut]

Some how I knew that damn Resident Evil would win. I'm going to have to stab my eyes out. I'll give it a couple days before I pick up the game with the most votes.

[LogicDonny]

Since you always been a jerk to me Penut, I want you to play all the games on the list and I voted metroid prime 2.. the other ones are too good.

If you want to tortue peanut, play super man 64.

[Peanut]

Drop dead, sh*t head.

[Dr. Doom]

for the love of god, go get MGS3

[Cure]

I'll be an oddball and vote Final Fantasy. Somehow, I can see you having no patience for that kinda stuff.

[LogicDonny]

Drop dead, sh*t head.

well you made this topic, why else would I say something here, lol.. dude you wanted to suffer by playing through a game you hate..

:lol: ok peanut, make me suffer through a game I hate.

[Spitfire]

well you made this topic, why else would I say something here, lol.. dude you wanted to suffer by playing through a game you hate..

:lol: ok peanut, make me suffer through a game I hate.

Play Brain age. I'm sure it will be the hardest game you've ever played.

[LogicDonny]

Play Brain age. I'm sure it will be the hardest game you've ever played.

Ok besides that.. that game is easy, it's more play 15 mins a day game.

i mean a really game I hate.. come on you guys read my posts, there is a game i don't like.

peanut, sorry for hurting you and not nice calling me sh$t head.. lol i was just playing with you bro.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Play Brain age. I'm sure it will be the hardest game you've ever played.

WINNER!!!!

[Ra]

make me suffer through a game I hate.
I've got one. "Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly". I hate that game with a passion. It's annoying. It takes ages to load. The characters voices and mouth movements don't line up at all (ie Their voice starts talking, and 3 seconds later the character's mouths move). Everything is slow. The mini games are annoying. The soundtrack is bad, or just bland. Everything about the game, except for the visuals, is very unimpressive.

Play that, and a little part of your soul will die. Trust me.

[LogicDonny]

Lol well i dunno.. i heard of that one.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Play Brain age. I'm sure it will be the hardest game you've ever played.

oh damn :lol: you're the best, spit.

[Cure]

Play Brain age. I'm sure it will be the hardest game you've ever played.

Zing. :lol:

[Mr. Snackpants]

But anyways....yeah, all of these games would make me suffer. I voted for FF because I hate those with a passion.

[Dr. Doom]

I've expressed this before, but if you liked the first MGS and didn't care for the second, the 3rd will probably be right up your alley. I know you have difficulty with the low gameplay to storyline ratio, but the gameplay is so much more expansive in Snake Eater than it was in Sons of Liberty.

[dejawolf]

super-man 64. i heard it was abysmal

[LogicDonny]

Uh noo.. That game is the worst game ever.. I won't touch that game wiht a 10 foot pole. in fact superman 64 is the worst game ever next to E.T.

[Cure]

What the hell do you think abysmal means? He definitely didn't say it was good.

[Mr. Snackpants]

What the hell do you think abysmal means? He definitely didn't say it was good.

:lol:

I have never played it but have heard terrible things about it.

[LogicDonny]

well any real gamer would understand the frustation and horror stories of the game Superman 64. Its' like the tails doll except much worst. I hear stories that those who own the game, the game will haunt your nightmares until you destory the cart.

If the game ever comes to the wii, and anyone downloads it, then their wii is cursed. it will utter the words that should never be heard.

[Peanut]

It'll never happen. And yes, it really is as bad as people say. It's also frustratingly difficult. As far as I can remember, you soar through rings for just about the entire game...And the sky is pink. Stuff pops up about a foot in front of you, so you never know what's coming. Worst draw distance ever. I found it funny how they worked that into the games story, though. "Lex Luthor has set a terrible, pink cloud of poison throughout the city!". That was certainly clever, at the very least.

ya and the cars are block and there are no people around the city. i mean the idea of super man 64 was cool but it was pulled off in the wrong way..

i think death and return of superman on snes was the best?

Wasn't it a green -- i.e., Kryptonite -- fog?

And I've just completed Snake Eater from one end to the other over the weekend -- 17 hours over two and a half days. Awesome, awesome game.

yes. It is a really awesome game. In fact my favorite metal gear solid game. the ending was really sad but very well-done. I felt sad for hours after watching the ending.. how emotional.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eyrHhByfxY <---- ending of metal gear solid 3.. spoilers alert!

[Ecto Jedi]

yes. It is a really awesome game. In fact my favorite metal gear solid game. the ending was really sad but very well-done. I felt sad for hours after watching the ending.. how emotional.

Yeah, the ending was awesome. As for my favourite MGS game, I think the original on PlayStation still qualifies as my favourite...Though Sons of Liberty will always have a special place in my heart. (Damn I spent a lot of time on that game!) That might just be the haze of time talking, though. Snake Eater was a fantastic game from both an artistic and technical standpoint.

Oh, and Peanut? I'd say MGS 3: Snake Eater -- but you're not worthy of its awesomeness. There. I said it.

[Peanut]

I'm not worthy of horrible story, boring cut-scenes and laughable dialog? That's cool by my standards, chump.

All of them are awesome.. each one has a story so epic and amazing it will make you wonder what is in Kojima's Mind.

The remake of MGS on cube is awesome more but too much matrix style cutscenes.. The ps1 version is good but the cube version takes the game up a notch by adding some new stuff in from the otehr games.

Now what about the psp one? ANyone here played that one?

[Ecto Jedi]

Of course, of course. After playing through SoL and SE, there's no way I could go back to the 32-bit PlayStation graphics...Very, very primitive. The GameCube version rocks ass -- in fact, they should port it to PS2 or PSP.

[Spitfire]

Aw you won't get to see a man in a thong, nor will you get to see a soviet general bad ass sex up another man and grab your balls when he mistakes you for his man lover.

And online you won't be able to take the joy in playing as the soviet generals boyfriend, in which you have a move where you grab the enemy by their testies and squeeze them to knock them out.

Your totally missing out dude

they should but they won't probably.

Anyways, my last question is about the psp metal gear solid portable ops.. Anyone here besides me played it? I will be buying it soon.

So I assume it's good?

[LogicDonny]

So I assume it's good?

yes.

I only played a bit. it plays differnetly. in fact you recruit soldiers, you also can search for them via gps and you can use other metal gear games like mgs3 and metal gear acid to unlock new soldiers.

also since the umd can only hold 1.8 gigs, don't expect the game to have full voice acting. The voice acting only happens in the cutscenes. The cutscenes are not your "console style" movies, it's more comic style.

still it's pretty cool. the controls may feel a little weird to use but once you take the time to play and understand the controls, the game will be a smooth ride. I haven't played online but i heard it's fun.

[Peanut]

The control of that game is awful.

[愛]

Metal Gear on a portable is a bad idea. The point of a portable is so you can pick it up and play it anytime you want. Do you really wanna be riding on a bus and get to your stop, only to be in the middle of a 15 minute scene of dialog and suspense? I don't think so.

[Ecto Jedi]

The control of that game is awful.

Doesn't seem to affect any of the scores I've seen online; most people rank it as the PSP's killer app. I haven't played it myself, but if it's anything like the console versions (but different in certain facets, of course), then I'm inclined to believe them.

you got a big psp fan.. me! I played it and I even admit the controls were awarawk but once you get used to them, the game is fun.

peanut just syaing 1 bad thing.. overall the game is fantastic. it feels like a metal gear game and in fact this game is the sequal to metal gear solid 3 and takes place between mgs3 and metal gear.

[Ecto Jedi]

That's what I'm most interested in. I think following the adventures of Big Boss during the 70s, after the events in the Soviet mountains in Snake Eater, is a fantastic idea. I mean, what's not to like about the character? It's Solid Snake, only more legendary, and with a bad-ass eyepatch. :)

That's because it's a Metal Gear Solid game. If any other game controlled/played like Portable Ops, it would have been panned.

Easy now, don't confuse him too much. You know he's probably already upset because the drool all over his keyboard is messing with his typing.

Which just goes to show that the series' trademark production values and engrossing storyline are strong enough to overshadow any minor quibbles people may have with the controls. It is Metal Gear, after all.

Never said otherwise, my friend. But by all accounts, it's a little more than minor quibbles. I've heard numerous people say they wish the game was ported to the PS2, just because they want to be able to play it for the story without the retarded controls getting in the way.

Either way, I've played it and the moment I had to use four buttons to peak around a corner, I was pretty much done with it.

[Raven]

I would say MGS3 because....well I'm a huge fan of the series which you already know but I really dont feel like forcing that on you, because by now if you dont like it you wont like it.


So I just went with the next thing that I personally like on the list, FF.

But may I ask why you think the story is horrible?

I know you are simpily just making a joke but.....your making a joke out of joke, because Major Raikov is a parody of Raiden. This is why I think Kojima is such a great guy because he dosent ignore all critsim, he takes it all and some times uses it in his own games to make fun of him self (that being how many Americans said that Raiden was gay)

Yeah I know I've followed the series like a religion since PS1 version came out. Then I quit after 3 because I didn't plan on getting a PS3. And after returning to 3 I don't miss it much.

The Raiden video on the 2nd disk was comical.
