Or just have both. That's what these old games can't offer. They can be fun, but not look good (except for a couple of hyperstylized games). Modern games have the potential for both. But even then there is no excuse when MGS3 existed on the PS2. Truth is you nostalgia blind people just call anything you liked as a kid fun and then somehow make a nonsensical connection between graphics and fun game experiences yourself. Seriously, this nostalgic nonsense... PS2 games for the most part looked absolutely horrible. And before I hear any deflections about how cartoon graphics or the like looked always good, there are games right now with cartoon graphics or stylized artstyles which look far better than anything from the PS2 era without being hyper realistic too.

Yeah I don't care too much about graphics as opposed to other variables in a game. A polished turd is still a turd. I try to get into the new games but they all seem so uninspired(for the most part, obviously there are exceptions and you shouldn't generalize and blah blah blah) and I keep coming back to the games of old. That was such a damn fun time 😊

The Tommy Gun isn't really an odd choice when you consider the portion of the backstory where the island/jail/whichever (I don't remember off the top of my head) was used for bootlegging and mob activity back in Prohibition. It's implied or outright stated there were caches of guns and stuff left over from then.

What would be great is if they did that and it revived the series with new entries. They can still do more with the premise they had if they wanted to. Have more locations and more monsters based on those specific locations histories

He had an interesting story about his role where he was just kinda there and thus was casted. He also did the narration for the movie G-Force, and had a similar tale! His name is David Markus, he goes by The Vocal Chameleon, and it really fits because he's in so many things and I never know it's him. He's a really cool guy, check him out if you get the chance!
