Episode notes

I feel like this game really establishes what Metal Gear Solid is in my brain much more than Metal Gear Solid 1 does. It handles some heady concepts, especially in the AI dealing with sorting out fact and fiction. You can just not spend quite so much time talking to him about the day you met, that would be huge.

This week, we're joined by GameSpot's Tamoor Hussain to discuss the second installment in the Metal Gear Solid series. How well does the game's AI-controlled vision of the future match up with our own reality two decades later? Also, what's Raiden's whole deal? Like, what's he even DOING here?

Also discussed: Diablo IV beta, You Must Build a Boat, Destiny 2, Octopath Traveler 2, ForeTales, There is No Game: Wrong Dimension, Dark Souls 3, Resident Evil 4 Remake, Dredge
