TLS Podcast Ep.32: Metal Gear Memory Tour

August 18, 2015

Metal Gear!!!
There's only a few weeks left until Hideo Kojima's next (and possibly final) installment in the Metal Gear franchise hits stores. So we here at The Loaded Screen have decided to make August Metal Gear Month. We're big fans so we think there's no better way to celebrate than to take a trip down memory lane and take a look at Metal Gear Solid 1 and  Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. In this episode we'll be chatting about:

* Our first time playing a Metal Gear game and what we thought of it.
* What are our favorite memories of each game.
* Do we think they hold up in this modern age of gaming
* And finally we argue about the cast of our hypothetical Metal Gear Solid 1 movie

Some possible casting choices:

* Director: Christopher Nolan
* Solid/Liquid Snake - Kevin McKidd (seriously just image search Kevin McKidd as Solid Snake (http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yHaaJ3CKhc4/UFziPfQP8xI/AAAAAAAAACY/agAV3HaX938/s1600/Solid+Snake+-+Kevin+McKidd+-+02.png))
* Ocelot - Daniel Day Lewis/Gary Oldman
* Naomi Hunter - Rosamund Pike
* Roy Campbell - Stellan Skarsgard
* Psycho Mantis - Jared Leto/Cillian Murphy

Next week we will be taking a look back at Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. It's sure to be a lively discussion.
