        Metal Gear Solid 3.

        This is easily in the bottom ten percent of wacky shit that happens in that game.

            PS2, not PS1.

            This is a game where your rescue mission for a nuclear scientist is foiled by a guy who controls bees, and then your boss, The Boss, launches a portable nuclear weapon to cover up that guy getting carried away by bees. That is how the game starts.

                It is by far the stupidest game I’ve ever cried over. You fight bee guy, a soviet catboy, an astronaut with spaaace maaadness, uncle grandpa who invented sniping, a ladder, a dead man, your gay lover who shoots lightning, a screw-tank, your thrice-betrayed boss with an animated snake tattoo, and the soviet catboy again, and it is all somehow a genuinely moving experience that also serves as criticism of late-20th-century geopolitics.

                And it was stupidly pretty for the PS2.
