Best of Giant Bomb: 115 - Metal Rippin' Scanlon

I WANNA RIIIIIIP!

Until it is done.

Nanomachines, son!

This is the dumbest videogame I've ever seen, but it was pretty fun to watch.

I never noticed that big room where all the brains are has a radar shaped like a brain.

Rip n' tearrr.

I was able to get about half way through this game, then got preoccupied with either school or work. it was incredible to see the ending of this, I'll have to go back and play this again.

Thanks Derek for throwing these videos together for us to see, truly a pillar of our community here.

Only the best content here on Giant Bomb

I want to make a joke about the dude saying "make America great again" but it's too early.

Giant Bomb & Metal Gear: What a Long Strange Trip It's Been.

I completely forgot he said this and I had the same reaction as Drew. That really weirded me out.

This

I didn't see the series. Did they think it was a dumb game/story as in dumb dumb? Or cool dumb?

Revengeance is one of the best games of its ilk. Really love playing it from time to time all the way through again. It feels great.

I never realized they released all the episodes already, just saw the first one!
Guess I know what this weekend will be about...

God that game is so good. I can't friggen wait for Nier.

Man, the music was one of the best parts of Revengence. When the lyrics start playing near the end of a boss fight it makes it all that more intense.

Agreed. Unfortunately if you like it you're immediately juvenile around these parts.

Watching Dan react to MGR was intensely satisfying. It NEVER made sense to me that he thought the game was "meh," it's EXACTLY up his alley.

The follow-up is ALMOST as eerie, if you take "war" in a more general sense.

I unironically love Revengeance's soundtrack.

Drew + Dan <3

23 seconds in, dan looks like he's about to take his headset off and walk out of the studio...

Someone needs to make a 2016 supercut of all of drew's unappreciated puns.

MGR was the right kind of crazy.

Shame we won't see more MGS spin offs in the future.

To be fair "make America great again" came from Ronald Reagan and Trump just stole it and made it a joke.

@zevvion: To be fair, during the playthrough Dan & Drew were multiple times totally banging their heads to the music. Some of those songs are simply great and fit extremely well with the gameplay. Lyrically it might not set the world on fire, but it's the right music for this.

God MG Rising is a video ass video game! and i love it for it! Just all out fun. A total Popcorn Flick!

Drew is funniest person in world confirmed.

i see MGR is still the gift that keeps on giving in terms of thumbnails.

@zevvion: i don't think i ever heard that claimed, at least by the staff.

i personally think it's dumb, but dumb in an awesome way and totally appreciated. and yep RULES OF NATURE!!! doesn't fail to get me pumped.

Drew should co-sing in a speed metal band. He fits the look.

@deathfromace: Ahh! Didn't know that little nugget of history actually! Makes it less weird now, thanks!

Poor Drew. His puns haven't been well received by his colleagues lately. I still love them.

I only thought that Part 1 was on the site so I had no idea that the whole series was up until I saw the thumbnail for this video. So I watched Parts 2-6 back to back and those were great moments to choose from for this Best Of video. Also I downloaded the soundtrack because I forgot how much I loved the music when I played this game.

Excellent moments chosen as usual. Great job!

I can't stop this kids from becoming cyborgs, but I can stop them from becoming murders.

Honestly I hope nothing in that thumbnail is ready to do any ripping.

I still need to watch this. Nanomachines, son!

They should've called these videos "Metal Gear Ryckert: Drewvengeance."

Drew singing to the song at the final boss was amazing. I love the music in this game so much. It's great.

@zevvion: More cool dumb.

Drew: "Is Hideo Kojima Nostradamus?"

Yes

@darkbeatdk: A lot of people on this site would probably disagree with that image, especially when you relate it to a certain thing which happened on the Internet not too long ago.

@shtinky: Cant deny the truth from the God Hideo Kojima, and his son, Hideo Kojima Jr.

I played this game at release, how did I miss the MAGA prophecy up to now?

Blade Mode finishes was a really great feature for Revengeance. Also had the same realization as Drew and Dan about the music in the game being both really great and having MGS-like goofy vibes for fights.

Rippin in the fridge!

I wish the Best of GB series included clips from old videos, I understand the purpose of compiling and "advertising" the new stuff, but I would really like highlights of old gems.

Was it ever mentioned that the last boss looks like the wrestler Irwin R. Schyster? I totally need to watch that series now.

The "Make America Great Again" reference in Metal Gear Rising spiked hatred in my soul.

Hatred of reality. Nanomachines, son.
