THE OFFICIAL METAL GEAR TUMBLR SURVEY

1. What was your first Metal Gear experience and how old were you at the time?

I was 8 years old and I played the demo version of MGS about a million times before I realized that I could buy the full game. It was love at first sight…

2. What was your honest reaction to the switchup that Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty pulled on everyone? For example, were you one of the people that hated Raiden and wanted Solid Snake back?

I was in a state of confusion when that switch happened. I kept waiting to be able to switch back to Snake before finally succumbing to Raiden’s bitching.

3. Do you have a favorite Metal Gear picture (e.g. a piece of Shinkawa artwork)?

They are all my favorite.

4. What is the hardest experience you’ve ever had in a Metal Gear game and did you ever overcome it?

The torture scene in MGS where Ocelot is electrocuting Snake. I could never save Meryl when I was younger! It took 10 years to do it!!!

5. Name the most attractive female/male (or both if you’re that randy) in the Metal Gear universe.

Solid Snake. Duh.

6. Have you ever played Metal Gear Online? If so what was your most memorable moment while playing?

I just started playing MGO. My favorite moment was when I was hiding in a cardboard box and snuck out and killed two guys right as time was ticking out.

7.What is your favorite Metal Gear game and why?

Metal Gear Solid. Best story. Best memories.

8. Which weapon do you prefer using in the series the most?

Mk. 22! I looooove putting people to sleep and stacking the bodies.

9. If you genuinely hate one thing about the Metal Gear series, what is it?

VAMP!

10. Have you ever played any of the Solid games on Extreme? If so, how was your time with it?

Started playing MGS on Extreme. It was ok.

11. Who is your favorite ‘Snake’ in the series and why?

Solid Snake in MGS2 because he still kicks ass even with a mullet.

12. What’s your favorite bit of music in the entire series?

The original ending song for MGS. It’s like a lullaby to my evil side.

13. Name one thing you didn’t like about each game (that you’ve played) specifically in three words or less.

Carrying. Emma. Emmerich.

14. What’s your favorite boss encounter?

Psycho Mantis!

15. What was your initial reaction to Psycho Mantis reading your memory card and moving your controller around (age is relevant here of course)?

I flipped a shit. And when you’re a 8 year old girl, that’s pretty crazy.

16. I hate shipping, but I may as well indulge you fanatics for a few seconds here. What couple do you think would work best in the Metal Gear universe (already existing or not)?

Snake + Meryl Forever!

17. Do you honestly think love can bloom on a battlefield?

Hell no.

18. Can you name the exact moment you fell in love with the series (assuming you ever did)? If you can’t just name your most meaningful experience with the franchise.

First time playing the demo. And the second, third, fourth…

19. Name something that you like about the series that borders on outright perversion. If you don’t have one, just name the moment that made you laugh the most.

Any Johnny moment. Especially when he runs to the bathroom when you are escaping the prison cell.

20. Do you earnestly want the Metal Gear series to continue or do you think things are pretty nicely wrapped up as is?

Continue!* (*As HD remakes for the PS3.)
