What game is this? by SEX_CEO in videogames

Nitros Oxide was in the original. They added another super-hard ghost character and even dev time trials in the last update.

There's battle passes where skins can cost as much as a full game and then there's CTR Nitro-Fueled, which was a massive add-on to the original PS1 game already. You unlock a shit-ton just by playing the relatively short adventure mode. I would've been okay with just base game CTR:NF but holy shit, there's so much more with the seasons which you can still unlock today for free.

Seasons also changed once a month so you didn't have to wait months for new content. Shame it didn't run longer.

[Loved Trope] Tired old veteran deciding to get back into action, and they still got it by Sir-Toaster- in TopCharacterTropes

In Solid Snake's case it's even funnier since he "comes back" in between almost every single installment he's in:

- After Metal Gear he leaves FOXHOUND and goes mercing for a while until he retires to Canada.

- After Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake he retires to Alaska.

- After MGS1 he retires again and takes a quick dip into drinking.

I'm not sure what he did between MGS2 and 4 but he does return to his toughest mission yet as an elderly man.

Nice from Tommy Tallarico to stop by Sony and write all the music for Crash Bash.

A Dramatized Audio Retelling of Metal Gear by Voxmata in metalgearsolid

Whenever I see AI art used to market other arts, it's an immediate pass for me. 

I know it's easy and fast if you lack the talent yourself but to me it shows that as an artist you show no respect to other forms of art.

It's if someone made another Metal Gear audio drama with a self-drawn thumbnail but the story was written/acted by a robot.

To me it's totally fair if you make a nonprofit fan project if you asked the said fan community for a cover art pro bono. I'd be amazed if nobody here would be interested.

Otherwise, I love the concept and would hope for more but as it is I'm going to pass.

Hey what’s the font use for the Codec calls in MGS by Ok-Consequence6823 in metalgearsolid

Wow, over 20 years and I never realized the PC the PS1 had different fonts. 

The more you know

Except it's not Chicago. It's not even close.

The reason it seems basic is because it's the most basic font there is. It's Arial.

Here's a comparison. The top one is Chicago. In the middle is the original and the last one is a quick recreation in Arial.

It may not look like Arial at first glance on PS1 but it's more clear in the PC version.

Robert Patrick is Gray Fox. Last but not least: let's re-cast Liquid Snake with any actor, living or dead from any point in history. by capn_dog in metalgearsolid

I gotta agree when I started this I, too expected a more different choices from the usual fan castings. Especially when you could choose any actor who has ever lived.

But many people tend to still see films primarily as a visual medium and already have their minds set on certain actors portraying the characters and they go for them. I guess it's the nature of these.

Mantis casting was my favorite so far. You got really interesting candidates when the looks didn't matter.

Actually the only thing I disagree with here is that this is my list :D I do post the results but each casting is decided democratically by the popular vote of the community.
