Title: mgs4 bosses look awesome
Post by: ananus on August 22, 2007, 09:54:56 AM: (http://xs218.xs.to/xs218/07343/68237_MGS4_122_707lo.jpg.xs.jpg) (http://xs.to/xs.php?h=xs218&d=07343&f=68237_MGS4_122_707lo.jpg)

they actually look terrifying, and after the fat guy with rollerblades and that emo woman from mgs2, anything is an improvement imo. someone on gaf was making conections to the mgs3 bosses (first part of the name) and mgs1 (second part).

I dunno, I think they look pretty bizarre, but not bad. I'd have to see them in context in the game to make any other comments, though they're not nearly as iconic-looking as Psycho Mantis or Revolver Ocelot from the original.

Post by: bud on August 22, 2007, 11:06:50 AM: crying wolf seems to be completely robotic.

Post by: Robo on August 22, 2007, 11:09:20 AM: Raging Raven doesn't have feet, which makes me think it's a robot also. Mantis and Octopus could be people.

Regardless, going from appearance alone, they look cold and lifeless.

Post by: Eduardo24 on August 22, 2007, 11:13:49 AM: It seems those guys are "Metal Gears" *sighs*

What´s the point in giving the name MG to everything anyway. They called the submarine-fortress in MGS2 Arsenal Gear, even though its not a robot. So dumb.

Screaming Mantis, Crying Wolf and Laughing Octopus?

Is this Metal Gear or Mega Man X?

Edit: After looking at the picture this is definitely a new Mega Man X game.
