Fallout 4 Mod Lets You Play As Big Boss And Quiet

The Diamond Dogs have arrived at the Commonwealth, ladies and gentlemen. What you’re looking at above is not a photoshop.

Not Your Everyday Metal Gear Cosplay

Omi Gibson, the Queen of Metal Gear cosplay, has over the years taken on some of the most iconic characters in Kojima’s series. This, though, is a little more niche. 2010’s Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker featured a “model viewer”, where players could take an isolated look at the characters featured in the game. Skilled…

What Game Would You Fund With Your Powerball Winnings?

As a relatively poor human being, I enjoy fantasizing about what I would do were I to suddenly become obscenely wealthy. As the Powerball jackpot has shot through the roof, to $1.3 billion for this coming Wednesday’s drawing, I’ve naturally been thinking about that a lot this week. Hello! I’m Phil, and I’ve returned to…

Always Make Sure Metal Gear Solid Supplies Are Dropped In A Clear Area

That Time Kojima Deceived Everyone About Metal Gear Solid 2‘s Main Character

Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty was one of the most anticipated games ever. 1998’s Metal Gear Solid blew everyone away with its attention to detail and imaginative world. The sequel, one of the first big PS2 games, would herald Solid Snake’s triumphant return. Snake came back…but not for the entire game. In 2015,…

When the news was revealed, the audience…

Metal Gear Solid V‘s Not-So-Secret Nuclear Disarmament Event Is Go, Still Seems Impossible

Uncovered via datamining way back in September, Konami has confirmed Metal Gear Solid V’s Nuclear Disarmament event. All players need to do to activate it is dismantle every nuclear weapon in their platform’s region, a task so easy Superman could do it.

The Weird Thing that Happened to Metal Gear‘s Japanese Voice Actor

In Japan, the voice of Snake is Akio Otsuka. He’s famous! In the past, he would often appear at Metal Gear events, which make recent claims by a Japanese TV show all the odder. Namely, that he refuses to show his face. On late night talk show Shabekuri 007, actor Tori Matsuzaka was asked what…

Students Remake Metal Gear Solid’s Heliport in Unreal Engine 4

A nine-week class project carried out by four people, resulting in some cool Metal Gear Solid fanart. The heliport was one of the first areas Snake entered on Shadow Moses Island in MGS.

Studio Wanted To Sue Kojima For “Ripping Off” Escape From New York

THR has a great interview with John Carpenter up on their site, and tucked away neatly in one corner of it is some interesting stuff about a Metal Gear lawsuit that never was.

Terrific Raiden Cosplay Has All The Moves

We showed off Masazi’s Raiden outfit when it floored people at this year’s TGS, but in the meantime she’s gone and made this very cool short film with Rescue the Princess which really showcases what the suit (and helmet) can do. You can see more of Masazi’s cosplay at her Facebook page

No, It’s Not A Good Idea To Use Snake’s Abilities In Real Life

Mega64 is back with a new video, messing around with Metal Gear Solid V features, trying to rocket punch everyone on the street with Snake’s Bionic Arm. No one gets fultoned, it’s just a ton of disapproving reactions, as always. 27 of them to be exact. Enough for Rank S! To contact the author of…

Fantastic Metal Gear Solid V Cosplay Has A Real Diamond Dog

Look, I’m not trying to take anything away from Maul Cosplay and Maja Felicitas’ incredible work as Snake and Quiet respectively, but having actual live wolves in the shoot steals the show. We never actually find out what breed of hound the game’s D-Dog is, but when grown up he looks pretty wolfish, so these…
