    MGS3 finished. Took me 13.5 hours. Did a bit too much backtracking, and them cutscenes be loooooong.

    Now installing MGS4's update. I'm guessing it'll take at least 15 hours.

    Just noticed I said "how's the hottest" instead of "who's the hottest" in my last post. I must commint Japanese ritual suicide to regain my honor.
    Better answer my damn question then.

    Sounds like a mixture of "commit" and "mint" like the word for making coins.

    GODDAMMIT! I can't believe I made yet another mistake and did not catch it. Now I must light myself on fire to restore my honor.

    Axe works really well for that sort of thing.

    MGS4 took me 15.5 hours without skipping any of the (obscenely long) cut scenes. Surprised I got the Hyena emblem. Didn't think I looted that much stuff.

    Now the question: go straight into Peace Walker, or watch stuff from Portable Ops first?

    Peace Walker.

    Gonna have to say Raging Beauty for me, but it's super closely followed by both Screaming and Laughing. None of the B&B looks bad.

    Not even an hour and a half synopsis of Portable Ops story stuff?

    Yeah true. Though I can't say I'm particularly fond of Screaming's hair. I don't know why, I just don't like it.

    Because it doesn't matter. So much so that one of the first things you hear when you actually get into gameplay in PW is "Finally, we can leave all that crap in San Hieronymo behind." And that's the only mention of Portable Ops in the whole game. It might as well not exist.

    That's super bizarre. There are quite a few references to events in Portable Ops during MGS4.

    HAYABUSA PLAY PEACE WALKER.

    Like, Kaz literally says "Lets leave that San Hyronmio or something thing behind us" at the start of Peace Walker.

    And also play PW because its my fave MG.
