I like how Big Boss is accused of using child soldiers but that never actually happens in a single game. He takes in war orphans and just give them an education then when they become adults they can join his army if they want. Oh God the humanity I'm going insane!
Chico blasts ******* in Peace Walker
He's a sandinista and Big Boss did not order him to do that.

Snake Eater by far. Big Boss and his story will always be better to me then the other Snake.

This thread is for that Japanese game, Gears of War, right?

The original title being Waa no Girozu, I imagine.

Metal Gear (1987) for the MSX is not the best game in the franchise by any metric.

Metal Gear Solid for the Gameboy Color is not a separate option. Bad poll.

MGSM2Fix finally updated

Now you can play MGS1 Master Collection version in better resolution without lots of bugs. (Apparently, I haven't tested it yet.)

If you hate using emulators like I do, this is nice.

Looks like they successfully fixed the under water bug from the previous version of the mod. The last version made it all buggy if you played at non-standard aspect ratio.

And here's a nice 21:9 shot (Yeah, the UI gets stretched, but it's a small price to pay.)

Menus are still normal:

Some nice little optional bonuses included in the mod's ini file:

This is nice. I’m glad they reverted back to the blurred Johnny butt from the Western release. The Master Collection had changed it to the Japanese version where he’s wearing underpants. Sure, it makes more sense that Meryl wouldn’t take his underpants, but I always liked the comedic shock value of the blurred butt from the Western version. It’s how I remembered it when I was younger.

They also brought back the red cross for the medicine icon. Apparently, it had been changed due to trademark infringement or something like that. This version fixes that, which is great.

One advantage playing on an emulator still has over this one is the ability to remove the “PS1 wobble.” It’s still present here. It would be nice if they could fix that too, but I’m not holding my breath. Honestly, though, it doesn’t bother me that much.
