  1. ok weird one classic gaming moment: Psycho Mantis.

    In Metal Gear Solid, Mantis checks ur PlayStation memory card and mentions specific Konami games uve played. He also does things like make teh screen go black as if the TV switched inputs.

    To fight him effectively, move your controller to port 2. He cant read it there, so he stops dodging every attack. Its both a puzzle and a joke on the player, and it still holds up as one of the best boss designs ever.

  2. ahh classic on teh GameCube remake, The Twin Snakes, Mantis comments on Nintendo save files instead.

  3. hmmm if you don't have any Konami saves, he comments on general things instead, so the effect depends on ur memory card.
