Did you play GZ yet? Some of those scenes got me squeamish, and I've got a pretty good stomach for this sort of thing. I guess violence against children is just something you don't really expect in games out of all mediums. While it was handled well, I can't help shake the feeling that all those scenes weren't exactly necessary. It's clear there is no more room for comedy in MGS.

Yeah there was no room for comedy, but no room for justification either. When OG Snake got his eye shot out I felt for him so hard, and now it seems more carnivalesque than emotional.

Won't get the same feels as I did with Snake Eater, that's for sure.

I did kinda' think that the emotional downfall of Snake was well done however. With Kiefer doing the VA and Snake appearing apathetic to all sorts of crazy shit in the new game, you lose empathy for him real quick. Good set-up for those inevitable MG1&2 remakes ;-)
