Talk:Meme gene scene

Latest comment: 18 years ago by Tomlillis

This article strikes me as a little dubious. There's no source for this information. It it a phrase common in some community? Is it something from the game designers? Is it just something one guy made up that sounded interesting? From the content, I'd guess the latter. --William Pietri 12:14, 9 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

I'm no expert on the matter, but i've read a few interviews with the games creator, and have also participated in multiple online discusion forums about the games in question, and i've never heard the 'Meme Gene Scene' idea put forth. It is an interesting little pnumonic... but at best it would be a backronym. The game producers don't often put out definitive statements about what the MGS games 'mean'. And summing each game up in one word is definantly not in their style. That, and 'scene' is really stretching it.Bigmacd24 22:31, 22 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

I got here through the AfD discussion, and while I don't feel qualified to vote on the matter there, I am almost sure I've heard this before. I want to say it was from an interview with Kojima explaining the E3 2003 trailer for MGS3. I say this, of course, with no authority. Even if it is factually correct, the thing is a little bit crufty... Tom Lillis 09:08, 24 November 2005 (UTC)Reply
