Grind my Metal Gears

After some important ass-staring, we finally begin our trek to the hangar where Metal Gear Rex lies, only to be interrupted by a psychic sicko who possesses our game consoles (which we're totally using by the way don't worry about it). Then after making friends with some wolf dogs and backtracking to find a sniper rifle, we face down again Sniper Wolf in a test of patience with the game's sniper controls only to get captured anyway.

We're back at it again on Shadow Moses Island. There's still a Metal Gear to stop, but first we've got to fight a tank and regrettably learn about the guy driving it. Fortunately, we also got to fight a cyber-ninja who actually turns out to be [REDACTED]. But most importantly we get to meet Snake's new boyfriend Otacon and learn about Japanimation.

Now that we've dug through the main menu for all its juicy info and lore, we can finally start playing MGS for real! We kick things off by getting our bearings on Shadow Moses Island before meeting the DARPA Chief (RIP) and the president of Armstech, Kenneth Baker (also RIP). And finally we face off against Revolver Ocelot and try not to get distracted by his sick gun flip tricks.
