10 Times Metal Gear Solid Was A Total Dick To Fans
5. Emma Emmerich's Escort Section
No one likes Escort Missions. Long the bane of every gamer's existence, there's nothing more annoying than having to factor in looking after what turns into an immovable led weight into a gameplay system that was previously hurtling along at a raucous pace. So after partaking in a slightly clumsy underwater section, you then had to grab the flighty Emma and redo it again, except this time due to her fear of water you were on a time limit that got increasingly tight if you racked up the difficulty. Add in the only way to progress through the level is by holding Emma's hand along with a terrible sniping section and you had one of the most stand-out bad parts of the whole trilogy. Oh but if you got too annoyed you could just knock her out and carry her to the end, proving that violence is the solution to... hey wait, that's actually pretty messed up when you think about it.
