For as completely barmy more mad than Josh’s taste in video games no L.A. Noire is NOT Rockstar’s best game you absolute maniac Metal Gear Solid’s story and world is, the weaponry usually plays things pretty safe.

It’s mostly down to Hideo Kojima’s love of western Hollywood action, and after MGS2 saw him hire a team of gun handling experts, it was machine gun, pistol and shotgun city for the vast majority.

The vast majority… until MGS 5’s utterly ridiculous overall everything, and the introduction of a freakin rocket-propelled fist you can send flying into campsites and up the rear-ends of anything with a heartbeat.

As confirmation of just how much Kojima and his team were LOVING EVERY SECOND OF THIS, Naked Snake’s Kiefer Sutherland even recorded a number of takes where he just screams “ROCKET PUUUUNCH”

It is GLORIOUS.

Born in Theatre, sits at a Computer. After over a decade of tinkering with Video Editing software, Rich gets to spend his precious time editing whatever's thrown at him. Also the go-to for Doctor Who, and could tell you why Sans Serif fonts are better than most. Still occasionally tap dances under the desk.
