"This is good... isn't it?"

The thirst for information the Smash Ballot has planted will infest the internet. No one can stop it now. Sakurai will unleash that thirst unto the future. Sakurai... we're burning UUUUAAAAAHHHP Day 1 since the Ballot has "closed", yet the page is still up and running. I feel incredibly tense...

To think, after all these days, months, and years, Snake's fate in Smash 4 will very soon be signaled in the tempest-tost ocean of the Smash Ballot -- and we're all going to cross into this threshold together. It's been an absolutely grand time, everyone! I've got the utmost confidence in his...

"Why isn't he still here? Just for us to suffer? Every time I see the character select screen, I can feel his slot... and his Codecs... even his tech. The fighter I've lost... and the universe we lost won't stop hurting. It's like it's all still there -- you feel it too, don't you? I'm going to...

The truest words I've read regarding the anticipation of Brawl. I think one of the contributing factors of what made the Brawl craze intense was its unpredictability. Now, one could say that for Smash 4 and Smash games for generations hence -- but Brawl truly chiseled the Smash formula into...

Just some ten hours ago, all was quiet on the Smash front and now the tides of a maelstrom are gestating in a wondrous way. Shovel Knight amiibo is officially confirmed and now there's a Smash update scheduled for this upcoming Monday? I can't type out how I feel about this, so I'll let the...

A random thought wormed itself into my mind a good five minutes ago -- what if MGSV (Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain bundled as one) was ported to the NX? It'd be fashionable for Snake to return to Smash at the last possible moment coinciding with MGSV NX, after a point in time where the console...

I'm enthused for Kojima and the developers receiving stellar reviews across the internet. After all he's had to endure with Konami recently, I hope Kojima finds solace knowing the game will find the success it deserves. Fan reception will come later, and I feel that's where his sights are...

Word has it that spoilers for MGSV have begun to leak across the internet; apparently, the game guide was released in Italy and is already translated, while gaming sites have begun to post spoilers from their review copies. I suggest everyone should be wary and alert in comment sections/social...

To commemorate the 200 page extravaganza, I feel as though it's a fitting time to post my stories now. Back in 1999, I visited my cousin's home for a weekend and watched him play Metal Gear Solid from sunrise to my dweebish bedtime. It was unprecedented for me, watching the cinematic cutscenes...

If he had a costume for it, Gray Fox would certainly make me feel alive again when playing as the Swordfighter. On the note of people wanting Snake back for Smash 4; comedy sketch group Mega64 held a panel at Anime Expo and just uploaded a video of it. At the 9:23 mark, a fan asked them which...

I know I'm five hundred years late to this, but when it comes to Metal Gear music, it's truly hard to choose one song over another. With much hesitation over what to include without listing the entire catalog, here are several of my favorite tracks from the series: -Calling to the Night It's...

Exactly this. Can't speak for the rest of you, but since Brawl's release in '08, it's as if every Metal Gear or Snake related article on varying gaming sites I came across almost always used this photo, which resulted in me referring it as The Quintessential Snake: Snake in Brawl certainly did...

It's actually the cardboard box. Snake throwing the box away for his taunt represents deforestation and needless waste. Nintendo didn't want to be associated with global warming, so that's why he wasn't in the core roster of Sm4sh.

I was thinking the exact same thing the entire day. In addition to having animated blood, Shadow the Hedgehog encompassed a grim tone that felt as though it was pushing the E10 rating.
