Port Over The Original!!!

[Zer]

How is HL2 better on consoles? There's mods, K/M controls, and the ability to fuck around with the game, like flying around, shooting that damn combine who tells you to pickup the can...

And Halo 1 and 2? And Crazy Taxi? And whatever that first one is? If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were trolling.

I used to mostly be a PC gamer and both of the halo's have new high res textures on pc as well as map editors (halo ce for halo 1). Crazy Taxi runs better on PS2 imo but mabe its because my PS3 upscales games. I prefer shooters on a gamepad so thats why I say HL2 is better on consoles (ps3 alows mouse support too). Nobody says you have to agree w/ me.

But... the MODS! And killing the combine guy who tells you to pickup the can! And the MODS!

They added some gameplay from MGS2 like 1st person aiming etc. But not a big change overall IMO.

And they made all the cutscenes CRAZY DRAMATIC AND SLOW-MOTIONY.

And Mei Ling lost her accent.

As did Naomi, but who gives a shit? Twin Snakes takes entirely too much flak. People always bitch about the cutscenes, the acting, the music. None of which are valid arguments. Aside from the rocket jumping shit, the cutscenes weren't so overthetop, and were actually quite an upgrade over the originals. People who whine about the scenes must not have played MGS2 or MGS3. Also, I guarantee you, I can take comparisons on the acting and sample them to people unfamiliar with the game, and they'd be split 50/50. It's a case of vocal delivery nostalgia and nothing more. Also Frank Jaeger wasn't black, so it's probably a good thing that he stopped sounding black. The score was changed from a very limited masterpiece, to a very broad masterpiece. They created as many amazing tracks as they omitted, and inserted a lot of less noticeable but highly appropriate BGM. Each boss theme was unique and amazing, (aside from the Solid vs Liquid fistfight, which might as well have been Yakety Sax).

Would you like a valid argument? Try: The facial modeling of just about every character.

Hey, I just thought Mei Ling's accent was hot.

In any case...yeah, the cutscenes WERE over-the-top. The MGS series turns more and more from a spy movie into a cartoon as the series progresses. Is this bad? I don't think so, I like it. But it's certainly a big change from the original.
