This week on VGS….
We celebrate the insane brain child of a Japanese man that enjoyed 24 and wasn’t big on narrative. Metal Gear Solid is 30 years old this week Andy, Travis and Richard talk through their favourite moments in the series and some dangerous role play between Richard, Andy and his girlfriend.

_NEWS OF THE WEEK_
Last week, Ark: Survival Evolved developer Studio Wildcard announced that its dinosaur survival game was getting a price increase on Steam from $30 to $60 (or £23 to £50) “to ensure retail parity” (match the price of the console versions) ahead of the game’s August launch.
DayZ creator and Ark fan Dean Hall called the increase “greed—pure and simple.
Is this greed or just the cost of doing business?
