The Wild West Days Of The Internet Are Over

I knew it couldn't last forever. It was getting more controlled everyday but I didn't think it'd happen this soon. It was a wrap once the old men in suits got accustomed to the internet..its all over

RIP to the wild west days 1995-2011

Where am I?

it was all good just a week ago..

We must stop The Patriots from censoring the net!

i agree with you, the us government is doing everything in its power to control anything and everything and they use missinformation and media control to do it.

Oh well, there is always anonymous.

The internet is a pile of sh!tty memes and crappy videos though. We wouldn't be missing out on much.

SOPA and PIPA are definitely not the only enemy for the Internet. It's not over yet, but there's a chance that the Internet may lose.

I'll cherish those memories of it's golden days :(

Maybe I just don't understand... but why should we have more freedoms on the internet than we do in life?SolidSnake35

Do we?

maybe to you, if you only check forums no wonder you come up with that answer, but internet is very very powerful for those who use it for more than reading what some basement dwellers with too much time on their hands write.

on the internet rests basically everything that humanity has ever accomplished.

I love the game for my own personal nostalgia but i can see why.

1. Raiden is the antithesis of Snake. He's a bum bandit.

2. The Emma Emmerich crap. Annoying

To be fair convoluted plot is something thats in all the games. :)

I'm happy talking about the Solid though.

It got too much convoluted after 2. I'm still trying to digest some stuff from 3. On a side note I am proud of myself for highjacking this thread and turning it in a MGS discussion. :lol:

Thats because the Patriots keep censoring it. :(

Digest 3? What was there to digest? MGS3 was probably the most straightforward game in the series. >____>

I just wish 4 wasn't so short.

Also, MG1 and 2 need remakes, badly. I want to see how a modern narrative would handle the stories presented in those games.

Wasn't SOPA shelved on friday or something?

Learn the lesson of Napster: no matter how hard the law tries to step on piracy (Napster), someone out there will find a new way to steal (every file sharing site/program that came after Napster).

It's not like the government can raid a physical warehouse and confiscate the stolen property. It's always going to be out there, and someone will always find a way to get to it/send it to those who want it.
