I really hope you enjoy this episode, I love MGS and it's always a pleasure to cover it.

7:16 For clarification: By PC version, he meant the PC version of Metal Gear Solid: Integral made by Digital Dialect, which was re-released on GOG. Not to be confused with the Master Collection version, which was the PS1 originals emulated.
I remember when Boba Skip was discovered. Everyone in the speedrunning community went nuts trying to replicate it and the resulting setup helped create a new milestone in Any%. Thanks, Kevin (What Boba called the skip)
What's especially amazing is that it went from being discovered completely by accident (which is insanely unlikely in the first place) to being repeatable with a foolproof method that always works, in the space of about 4 hours. I've never seen something move that quickly (heh) in speedrunning before. It usually at least takes days. Not hours. By 4 hours after it'd been discovered there was already a new world record using it.
I was on my first playthrough in a long time and figured id try extreme, stuck on that damn tower for a week until i heard about the Boba skip and nailed it first go.
Thats relatively recent. The vent glitch broke the game like no other. The first time its Speedrun was registered, everyone thought it was a hack. Specially on times of faqs and forums (early 2000s).
More son of a glitch isnt something I was expecting this year, but I'm here for it! Glad to see you back in action, especially after what must have been a well deserved break (as well as mingling with everyone's favorite hedgehog). Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Yaayyyyy another new episode!!! Thank you so much for all of the hard work and effort that you put into these videos!! I watch these all the time on repeat when I’m working from home and I never get bored re-watching your videos!! 😃😃🙏🙏😃😃
I'm really conflicted. On one hand, I cannot deny that the channel content is brilliant. Seriously, excellent work with all of your videos. On the other hand, I wish you would stop putting your voice on as much as you do if that makes sense? I suspect we're from the same or at least a similar area, and you sound so forced. Like it's obvious you don't actually speak the way you do in your videos. Just be more natural and your videos will be perfect. I hope you don't take this badly, I just want to give you some constructive feedback, because your content really is awesome.
I always find myself watching your videos every month or so. I’m so happy to see this video come out so quickly. I’m hoping one day the Low Poly series will come back but the episodes you have now are amazing enough as is!
love to see you back it's surprising how many episodes you're pushing out; with this one i felt it was a bit fast paced i'm not sure if i'm just slow but i lost track a few times, plus as someone who doesn't know this series i had no idea what was really going on
MGS is already a pretty short game if you know what you're doing, so some of these skips essentially let you cut past a huge chunk of the game. That's part of why it feels that way.
*opens door* *grabs infinity gauntlet* “Fine, I’ll push it myself” In all seriousness, it’s great to see you back to uploading. You have this perfect balance of straight-forward, no filler, explanations and engaging personality. There’s plenty of glitch/exploit tutorials out there, but near none that can do it quite like you
Ngl i miss your previous intros (mainly the old one that i think was used at the start of your channel) they had falir and gave your videos a unique identity imo but regardless, I'm glad you're back after a much needed break
Thats greatly done. Im playing MGS since its release, things evolved and people were discovering glitches little by little. Remember the vent glitch was described in the prison cell just to get over the bed for fun. Than it was used in the skip showed in video, there was no youtube and stuff was described in faqs and forums early 2000s. The weapon glitch too a while to be used to skip the communication tower, since if you do it before or after, you could get a soft lock. And than it came the boba skip, discovered my accident on a playthrough of a player that was struggling to get through the tower run already in 2020s people started to try reproducing it effectively, until they managed to do it. Once it was understood, even i tried and managed to do it. Well the game is several years old and this video showed lots of useful glitches. There are alot more, it felt somewhat rushed.
I was in a nostalgic mood last night and, on a whim, decided to rewatch the Oot 3D episode from yeeears ago. Lo and behold, there’s a new Son of a Glitch the next morning.
This is really interesting. I've been playing this game for, almost, 10 years, and never experienced any of these glitch. I think It's time to play it again to give a try to these new (for me) "features".🤣
Really? The boba skip made a fuss in the internet a couple years ago. And the vent skip have been around for almost 20 years now, its a staple for Speedrun.
I mean the gog version also gives you access to the randomizer mod which honestly will make GME pretty useful for beginners as the game becomes a challenge especially if you pick up ocelots bomb with 3 seconds on it. Stormbreaker Pirate has a tutorial on getting it set up if anyone is wondering how to set it up and play it
So cool, I found out as a kid that I could go back down before fighting the Hind D (he prob kicked my ass and I didn't want to fight anymore or didn't have enough rations so possibly wanted to get more) and those boxes were blocking me. I did go over them before but just went to the other side and got could not go back up, didn't know about falling to the side. Also weapon glitch I never knew about, just recently found out about the vent glitch. MGS is such a cool game game with come cool glitches.
The vent glitch have been around for 20 years, it revolutionized the speedrun people though the guy was cheating and it took a while to surface. Boba skip was discovered a couple years ago, it made a fuzz in the internet, discovered by accident, the community joined to test it and reproduce it, this was quite cool, i recommend you to search about it.
There is also technically a god mode glitch for console, it just isn't useful for speed running so you'd never see it. It's been a while since I discovered it so my memory on the exact details are fuzzy but it involves quick equipping the binoculars as you're exiting a vent. The easiest way to do it is to mash the quick equip button an you should scope in with the binoculars rather than getting the crawl animation if done correctly.
As usual, I enjoyed the Son of a Glitch episode but I've noticed that you don't use the intro sound anymore. The older episodes voiced "Son of a" followed by a female computerized voice saying "Glitch" and I always thought it was really cool. Just curious as to why you don't include that anymore. I'm sure there's a good reason. Either way, love this series.

@@duffman18 it's almost foolproof. Snake's damage animation is still very much a coinflip at best.

skipping the sniper wolf bossfight was so popular that they gave us legit ways to skip the "the end" bossfight
From years with few uploads to two uploads in two weeks is an amazing change, glad to see more uploads again
Yeah, I'm back for sure :)
@@AStartShowand how about that sonic chaos remake? 😦
The man of all bugs, the father of crashes, the son of a glitch has returned
How on earth do people find these glitches 😂😂😂
@@randomsimpsonsquotes6033accidentally, sometimes by brute force, and sometimes purposefully
Son of a Glitch, he’s posting more consecutively
Indeed I am :)
You son of a glitch, I'm in
Son of a Glitch, he replied to my comment :O
You have said a bad word. Perish, as you feel the weight of you actions because I'm telling mother. You are a fool
I wonder if this means his Sonic Chaos remake is coming soon
You really are back at it! Real world work must have run dry if you're pumping em out this fast ahaha! Great to see!
Colonel, I'm out of bounds.
Loving the show, always a great sight to see new episodes.

OMG 2 episodes in less than a half a year , dreams do come true. Welcome back!
I am very much back :)
I am SO INCREDIBLY HAPPY you're back Andy!! This is the best Christmas gift ever!!
Glad to hear it :)
This is definitely a new form of tactical espionage action, amazing.
Great video A+Start, this would actually serve really well as an introduction to speedrunning MGS1. And thanks for the shoutout on my Boba Skip video!
This is a video I was hoping you would make for a very long time, so I'm really glad you actually made it =D
Yeah, I've been meaning to make a dedicated video with every major glitch in the game. Glad I could finally do it for you :)
That's the best plug for Patreon I've seen yet. Very fast and gets your attention.
I love how Boba is hated so much that people straight up refuse to call it the Boba Skip.

Boba Skip ?

Does people?
What? People love her! Stop slandering!
Glad you’re posting more videos. I miss these videos
It's really cool that you've returned with a callback to your previous videos

Is the series actually back?

Great to see you back man.
It is indeed back, but RUclips isn't pushing them out so people still don't know, there are two more episode before this over the last month

Another one!! Thanks for the fun content Andy
Thanks for watching :)
This channel was hacked once and he lost loads of subs. I'm just commenting because he deserves it. ❤
I'll never skip a metal gear video great work and great glitches legendary!
5:35 hell yeah, boba skip
I'm glad that he's uploading again, I stayed subscribed for a year in case this happens, and I'm glad I didn't unsubscribe.
Why would you unsub? It doesn't cost anything to stay subbed. I'm still subbed to users that hasn't uploaded in 10+ years.
FINELY!!! A new video
There are two more from this month, brand new, check them out :)
You sir just saved my metal gear run. Im so bad at the game I've essentially given up, but that god mode trick makes me want to go boot it up. Thanks
Lol
Ngl i miss your previous intros (mainly the old one that i think was used at the start of your channel) they had falir and gave your videos a unique identity imo but regardless, I'm glad you're back after a much needed break

1:21 🎶Baby you light up my life like nobody else🎶
i think it’s funny how Johnny is still sitting on the toilet even though the player can’t see him
MY FAVOURITE GAME OF ALL TIME ON ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE RUclips SERIES. LIFE IS COMPLETE.
I missed you this year sit at the fire with your chrismas sweater
_Maybe the real glitch is all the friends we made along the way._
Still waiting for that sonic chaos remake.
Another episode so fast, man it must be Christmas or something.
Trying my very best for you all :) Happy Holidays
I never sow this game so glitchy. Things i never tought they were possible.😂 good job again.
He compressed basically all glitches in the game discovered in a lifespan of almost 30 years and presented them
The legend is back again
I have waited for this
Merry Glitchmas!
HE'S BACK! I hope you enjoyed your hiatus!
Am I dreaming? Are you actually uploading consistently again? Welcome back!
Holy shit, I thought you died. Welcome back!
We all missed you!
So in an attempt to spare her, players accidentally found more ways to kill sniper wolf?
