Title: one game i could see being a mgs beater
Post by: kopking on June 23, 2001, 04:40:10 AM
There is only one game of the same type as mgs i can actually see being better ( as in action game) that is syphon filter 3. i loved the last two,but with better grapics some new stuff etc, i could see this being better that mgs2. mgs had a much better story line, but sf was so much fun to play...what does evryone else think????

I still have to go for MGS, yes both games you take part in covert operations, but, I dont know it is just one of those things that I have to stick with.  MGS was a great fun factor also, and yes a better storyline.

Okay, for one, Syphon Filter 3 is for PS one.

After playing it at E3 I quickly realized that it was more of the same that we saw in the 2nd title. The story is lagging and this game SHOULD HAVE been made for PlayStation 2. Moreso 989 is back making it and that\'s only bad news.

It\'s not going to be better than MGS2, no way in hell. It\'ll be likely if it makes out to be a mediocre title.

Yes, they\'re going to lose a lot by making Syphon Filter 3 a PSOne game.  Better than MGS2?  Even if it was for Sony\'s next generation console, I doubt SF3 could top Snake and the crew.

I bet MGS 1 will be a better ps1 game then syphon filter 3. It would probaly be awsome for ps2, but for ps2?NO! 989 screwed up with gameday, now since they will put syphon filter 3 on ps1 another screw up.

SF is a pretty average series. MGS is way better. That being said, I think SH2/X, Munch, Ico, WaveRace: BS, and lots of other games are \'MGS beaters\'.

i thought sf1 was better than mgs gameplay and fun wise for psone but mgs2 is the bomb. the ai on syphon filter crushed that of mgs easily but the 3rd installment back on psone ? come on what r those guys thinking

I thought Syphon Filter sucked d**k. You could just use that electric gun thing from anywhere. It had unlimited range and never ran out of ammo.

I could never get into that game. It just didnt have the story line, gameplay or atmosphere of MGS.

Well I dunno if we have to stay in the MGS catagory but I know one game that will undoubtly beat that game.  I t is simple, its going to be Final Fantasy X  no doubt.  If I am wrong you all can take your punches at me.

Final Fantasy X will be a great game, but better than MGS2?  HA!

a good final fantasy is better than any other game on earth, IMO...but im not sure about FFX, i think it may go the way of FF8 (not good)...but if its anything like FF7, 9, Chrono Cross etc. then i would pick it over MGS2

I have to say the best game I ever see on PS One, including best gameplay and best music, best storyline, and most innovate have to Be Final Fantasy 7.  I would voted it as best game of psone. MGS one might be second.   For PS2, I have to vote for Metal Gear Solid 2.  Best gamplay, best physics (innovate), best storyline, possibly could be best game of ps2, etc...  FFX doesn\'t really innovate.  Well in some area, yeah, but for the most part, whatever FFx does, MGS2 tends to do better like physics and shadow and gameplay...need i say more?  The staffs and developers, (HK) making MGS 2 really work hard, much harder than FFX staffs, they did a lot of research about military base and other think...you know what I mean...Even GT3 staffs did some better research about cars too.  Like they photo real like tires and capture cars in motion and other thinkgs.  FFX only have better graphic whereas, other things they doesn\'t seem to do a lot of research from what I see so far from the video download.  It just kind of obvious.  They just give it away when you watched the battle scene.  I wish more could be done for the battle scene, like when Yuna summon Ifrit, she could chant some magic spell like "Hellfire god, Ifrit, I call out" look, the gameplay have voice acting but I didn\'t hear she say something like that.  Or when they cast any magic spells.  Even the battle attack looks similiar to FF8, which i hated.  I hope we don\'t have to draw magics like ff8 or upgraded weapons....

Just my opinion.:D

wELL after playing the mgs2 demo. There is not a game out right now that beats it. And SF story was so bland. It could never be a MGS2 killer.
Title: one game i could see being a mgs beater
Post by: Sublimesjg on June 24, 2001, 08:58:22 PM
yea but how would you know if FFX or MGS2 are innovative - i mean sure you may have played the demo of MGS2 but how different is it really over MGS and also FFX hasn\'t even had a whole lot talked about it gameplay wise - at least not as much as MGS2

all i am trying to say that is like comparing PS2 and Xbox gameplay wise - you can\'t seeing how you haven\'t tried Xbox
Title: Metal Gear Solid 2 vs. Final Fantasy X
Post by: on June 25, 2001, 11:18:04 AM
I think that Final Fantasy X may have a chance to surpass the invincible Metal Gear Solid 2 I mean if its something like  Final Fantasy 7 then it will be a good competitor to Metal Gear Solid. But if its something like Final Fantasy 8 then it will stand no chance.

I don\'t really understand what is so great about the MGS series.  I mean at least the first one.  Sure it had a glitzy storyline, but you take that away and you have very mediocre gameplay, except for maybe some of the boss challenges, with no sort of replay value.  Syphon Filter (I don\'t know about the second one) made you spend more time playing, than just passing you along easily so that you could see the ending.
It kind of scares me that gaming has gotten to the point where people think a good game is a game that you spend more time watching than playing.  Personally, I think storyline should try to be based around gameplay, not the other way around.  After all, they are games.

NO NO NO NO NO.  How dare you say that Mgs on psOne had mediocre gameplay?  Obviously, you are one of those types that like to blow up stuff mindlessly.  MGS for ps1 had innovation, a new storyline, and plenty of replay value.  You have two endings, for instance, and you don\'t really focus on shooting the hell outta each other but stealth, sneaking up on the enemy, not bieng caught, etc.  Sf had none of these awsome factors, but "run, shoot, reloaad.  Rinse, lather, and repeat."  Shame on you, for you have disgraced the world of gaming.

Baah baah baah, you\'d buy crap on a stick if it came from Squaresoft. ;)

MGS2 will surely rule all FF games ever made. Or perhaps I\'m just biased because I hate FF. :)

I liked Syphon Filter, it didn\'t quite beat MGS, but it was also a good game. Too bad SF3 isn\'t for PS2 though.

Again, there\'s the storyline factor, you keep bringing up.  Storyline has nothing to do with great gameplay.  While you are right, the innovation of "tactical espionage action" (which originally appeared on NES)  is great it didn\'t actually mix well into the game.  Basically, the game material and the gameplay didn\'t mix well.  In the game you constantly found yourself going back through areas that you had already been through.  After, you get out of the first two buildings you just had to return back through them twice, and then get caught by Wolf and sent all the way back to the first.  At the end, you had to go back through the final building twice also(to get the card heated and cooled).  The gameplay would have been better if the levels weren\'t so repetitive.  Also, the constant and insurpassable codec calls cut up alot of the gameplay.

You also seem to think that simply becuase I didn\'t like MGS as much as you did, that  I enjoy more simplistic (I guess you good say) gameplay.  You must not remember that in the game there were several times when confontations with the guards were inevitable (such as in the elevator with the camouflage guys, going to the top of the first communications tower, the first elevator trip down in the final building, etc.)  The reason why the added this is becuase they thought that people would soon start finding gun cameras not such a challenge.  MG on NES was much better.

Your also wrong about Syphon Filter\'s gameplay.  It brought up plenty of challenges along the way.  You did have a portions of stealth action, as well has having to complete objectives like getting to the end of a dark tunnel using a nightvision sniper rifle, stopping an airborne missile, finding your way through catacombs, and locating and terminating scientists(which is of course the trademark of a truly great game =))  It wasn\'t just running around and shooting stuff like you suggest.  The only problem with Syphon Filter is it didn\'t have the massive marketing campaign that MGS did.

Well, first off it was just an inside joke to Bobs_Hardware. Secondly, I actually don\'t like FFVII all that much. So how can you say it\'s say it\'s the best videogame of all time? It is, afterall, just opinion. For me FFVII is most certainly not the best game of all time - I enjoyed MGS a whole lot more. I know lots of people praise the FF series, but I\'m not one of them. :)

BTW, welcome back Soul Reaver! Long time no see.

Final Fantasy X might have a chance if it follows the line of Final Fantasy 7 but if not Metal Gear Solid 2 will dominate.
