Arrggh! A Video Game Podcast from The Waffling Taylors

Underpants, posters in lockers, bands, a surprise Mei Ling, and an excessive number of Easter Eggs. That can mean only one thing: Alyxa is back (with a brand new invention?) to continue her chat about Metal Gear Solid 2.

Show Notes

Alyxa returned!

Well, she'd have to because her and Squidge weren't finished with their conversation on Metal Gear Solid 2 in our last episode.

Waffling Taylor's Lite: the pocket size podcast that packs a gaming punch.

In this serving of byte sized banter with a side of gaming goodness. We catch up with Alyxa the Kitsune (codename: Glitter Fox) about Metal Gear Solid 2. We cover everything from Easter eggs streaming mishaps to codec hijackings.

So without further ado, sit back, grab some snacks, and get ready for this episode entitled: "Metal Gear Solid 2 Part 2 - A What Vampire!?"

Take it away, guys

— Squidge

Sock Puppets!

Squidge wasted no time in getting to the good (read: "absurd") stuff by asking:

If you could take three characters from the combined universe of Metal Gear Solid One and Two and re-enact a scene of metal Gear Solid Two using sock puppets, who would play who and how long before you start burst out laughing?

— Squidge

It's probably for the best that you listen to Alyxa's answer, because it's almost as absurd as Squidge's question and includes a very deep cut back to Alyxa's appearance in WT Lite - Metal Gear Solid with Alyxa the Kitsune - aka episode 173.

Metal Gear - The Pop Group!?

You are tasked to form a pop group of four people from a list of characters from Metal Gear Solid, two, who is in it, and what is their first breakout song called. And a band name, if you've got one

— Squidge

Alyxa and Squidge kept talking about this question way after the recording ended, and Delilah had to get involved during the edit.

Solid Snake, Solidus, Raiden. And their breakout song, or their debut song, would be "broken bonds"

... It's broken bonds. Because what do these four characters have in common?

It's because of the whole thing with Solidus being Raiden's adopted father, Ocelot supposedly having Liquids arm. Then you have Solid and Solidus. It's a broken part of a family.

— Alyxa

Squidge answered this one, too. And his choices are bonkers.
