8 Video Game Moments That Made You Go....WHAT?!
1. Psycho Mantis' Mind Read - Metal Gear Solid
Metal Gear Solid is basically the Bret Hart of video games, the best of the best, the excellence of execution, and while other titles in the series might have gone bigger and even broader with their over the top experiences, the PS1 outing will forever be my sweetheart.
The action was intense, the story was complex but not fully disappearing up Kojima's own backside and of course, we had classic moment after classic moment thanks to the brilliant stealth focused gameplay and utterly memorable boss battles.
However, it goes without saying that Psycho Mantis stood at the top of the house of cads in no small part thanks to his fourth-wall shattering introduction. As a lad who had plenty of Konami titles locked away on that little plastic memory card it felt like a true invasion of privacy and I genuinely thought a prank was being played on me. What a fool I was for it was just Kojima flexing his creative muscles to excellent effect.
