Well, I got a kick out of it.

The Metal Gear series is pretty massive. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_Gear

Metal Gear Solid on the PS1, 1999. Spent hours on that f***ing thing. Easily the best game of all time.

Wow! As a former hardcore videogame nerd, this thread has just given me the ultimate nerdgasm!

That's pretty cool. Suda 51 (creator of NO MORE HEROES and friend of Kojima) also loves Morrissey.

Certainly one of the best.
A bit short though.
Final Fantasy 7 was my choice back in the day.
I've still got an original playstation and only last year played it again.
The dated graphics are a bit much now,but the game play once you leave the city is fantastic.
The opening sequence hooks me every time.

Of course I keep going back to Lara as well.

Excellent

the only thing cooler is if the japanese dude who created the Silent Hill series would tweet how much The Smiths influence his work.
