>Motoko Kusanagi on the cover >you play as the Tachikoma
Can someone explain this blatant false advertising? I have to at least commend them for fooling so many people into thinking you will play as the Major back then. This is some high tier misleading right there into buying your game. They've done an excellent job.
They wanted to make sure you knew who the series' protagonist was.
Kevin Lee
And let me tell you, this cover art isn't even the whole thing. Motoko is standing on top of Tachikuma, which is the main focus of this game, but they deliberately cropped it out. This is some major jewing right there.
Benjamin Hill
Who cares, Motoko a shit.
Gavin Butler
you play as major IN the tachikoma
Aiden Ward
No. You play as some noname rookie, not Motoko.
Angel Perry
Okay step back.
What in the hell would a proper Ghost in the Shell game look like for the PS1?
Maybe a third person shooter type thing?
Carter Cook
...
Christopher Fisher
That was already done with the PS2 release of GiTS. How about not blatantly lying about your game?
Angel Parker
>That was already done with the PS2 release of GiTS. But OPs game is a PS1 game >How about not blatantly lying about your game? How about you read up on a game before it's release? Or look at the back of a box before you buy it?
Isaiah Cooper
confus
Robert Powell
Fuchikoma
Carter Turner
The information wasn't for widespread in the 90s. You can't deny that they were banking on the name alone and the decision to make it about anything but the main character is just baffling.
Nolan Butler
>The information wasn't for widespread in the 90s Maybe some magizine ads were hard to find. ... But the back of the box, user? You can read it there, it's obvious you won't be the major
What ships more boxes, spider bots or hot anime girls? Be serious.
Alexander Peterson
Between Norm and Bubble.
Benjamin Cook
The movie and anime in general were very niche back then, but probably the best known version of Gits at the time. The manga the game was based on was even more niche. Most people knew jack shit about the characters back then. The game was pretty rare itself. No one was mislead.
Isaiah Evans
Do you remember the fucking ad in magazines for this game? Super sexy Shiro artwork of the major with a huge ass machine gun.
Isaiah Green
...
Isaac Thomas

Josiah Powell
Nothing can beat the first GITS movie for that scene, even if it's been redone in some way in every iteration of GITS since.
Anthony Stewart
Don't tell me this is a remake of the original scene. The only thing worse would've been the Hollywood version.
Ian Young
Tfw double wide
Jaxon Moore
Jesus imagine if Batou looked like that all the time.
Cameron Price
Not really considering sci fi cjannel played them and all stores had an anime section
It actually is a proper GitS, if you remember how much of the story revolves around the Fuchikomas. Sure, it's a 3rd person shooter, but the story, voices, animation, music, and settings were pure GitS.
The artbook for the game was orgasmic, though the strat guide was B&W bullshit.
Henry Cook
Aren't the FMVs for this game on some obscure Japanese only DVD?
Jace Murphy
...
Christopher Rivera
>niche Fuck off, they were huge. Even normies were going on about how good the movie was. There was a lot of crossover between GITS and fans of The Matrix.
Nicholas Thompson
Actually I found much more overlap between the matrix and Aeon Flux
Jordan Rodriguez
>hurr let's just telegraph the purpose of her actions
Jason Bell
I've only watched the very first GitS. Are you saying they redo this exact same scene every series? That's a running gag at that point.
Elijah Kelly
Pretty much. I've seen it redone in Stand Alone Complex, I think Arise has a moment, the remake of course.
Kevin Reyes
...
Landon Lee
I didn't even know it was an F9000. I knew some of the grenades though. Felt good about that.
Nolan James
btw I meant a F2000
Tyler Collins
haha, no you didn't.
The F2000 is a military grade bullpup rifle with literally no use against cyborg parts, at the very most, it would probably dent the flesh.
Ryan Carter
>tfw SAC has been out on Bluray in Japan for almost a decade now
I love the show, but I'm not paying hundreds for these fuckers.
Elijah Flores
most underused character
Jason Lee
he doesn't need to be used more, he's just "the computers guy"
Samuel Wright
Nah bro he was essential with the nuclear bullshit at the end of Second Gig.
The most underused is the retarded fat guy with robot glasses. He barely says anything, ever.
Carson Moore
Did you just copy parts of the topic I made a few days ago?
Ian Johnson
Third guy from the left, big stupid fella. Even the asshole on the far left got an episode about him. He likes to bang chicks.
Can you say ANYTHING about our oversized, lovable mental gimp?
Grayson Hill
Fun Fact: The majority of SAC's english voice actors were used for characters in the Xenosaga games. Motoko's english va is also a voice option for female Cross in Xenoblade X
Xavier Moore
which voice option?
One of the guys who worked on the Arise series also worked on the concept art for the Skells.
Joshua Long
Fun game though, so who cares?
Gabriel Adams
This wasn't the only game on the Playstation that had Ghost in the Shell in it. The game also had Judge Dredd and Slaine the Horned God in it

Justin Butler
...
Dominic Nguyen
how long did she have the full cyborg body for in Arise?
I guess it would feel very alien at first if you just suddenly didn't have to eat anymore. It's one of the most basic human instincts, but than again I'm probably giving Arise more credit for this than it deserves, unless that is actually adressed at some point in Arise.
Parker Wright
that works, especially with all the different outfit options. Looks more like the Major than the Arise version does.
Evan Cruz
Wait, is Arise a full re-imagining of GitS? I thought it was generally the same as SAC and the two movies only taking place before all that.
Brandon Carter
I made a Destiny character that looked sufficiently like the Major.
Jayden Kelly
the movies and SAC are not connected and I don't know if Arise is officially canon to either of these.
Jaxon Mitchell
>Calling the Fuchikoma a Tachikoma
Kayden Hill
>gameplay literally on the box if you knew what GitS was you knew what you were getting into and it was fucking great. If you didnt know then it didnt really matter. it was just animu character art. S rank everything and get every fmv of delicious motoko.
Easton Johnson
nigger this was before the matrix.
Colton Hill
>the movies and SAC are not connected The entire character arc of Motoko in 2nd Gig centered around her becoming despondent enough and learning enough about full virtualization to actually do it in the movie. They are in the same continuity.
David Wood
That is a plot point repeated in every GiTS continuity, except maybe Arise as I haven't watched it.
Asher White
This is probably the best thread to ask this. Has anyone played the PS4 Psycho Pass game? If so, is it good?
Chase Hughes
>ywn be the old neckbeaded IT specialist dealing in linux, videogame consoles, and pre 2030 data technologies like the VHS.

That one new terminal conquest map is pretty good, but terminal conquest maps should be big by default anyway. Also Port is like a shittier version of Final Destination and I fail to see why it gets picked so often. Fun to shotgun around in, but not much else.
Also, did they nerf SMG's a while back? I used to rape face with one, but I feel like it got nerfed to hell and back as of late. Didn't check older notes either.

Jack Murphy
I like most iterations of them.
I haven't seen innocence yet, so I'm still wondering what that's like. Stand Alone Complex is pretty good for learning about sexuality and the perfunctory sexual urges. The movies are just plain biblical, cyberpunk love letters that almost define the genre entirely.
Adam Torres
I just watched the 1995 movie for the first time last night, what should I watch next in the series??
Isaac Robinson

Kayden Adams
I spent a solid minute trying to figure out if there was some sort of brand ripoff with that label. I was seriously racking my brain to figure out what the fuck "Forcyborg" could be because of that shitty letter spacing. I was mentally pronouncing it "Forsee Borg." Christ. This is why I'm not a scientist.
Jack Rivera
I got the 2 operative pack while it was on sale for 5$ (was like the 20$ package). Idk they say they're making progress and actively working on it. so they say.

Alexander Howard
You're allowed to have that fanfiction so long as you ignore the chronology, but it's best not to confuse others by stating it as fact. As far as official canon goes, there's three: GitS, Innocence SAC, 2nd gig, Solid State Society Arise, The New Movie
Nathan Hernandez
She looks younger than that, give her some credit.
Also, milf doesn't mean old.
You aren't playing devil's advocate very well.
Lincoln Fisher

There are some pacing changes, but it really isn't much different from regular gits

Oliver Fisher

Nathan Torres
There is the very minor detail that GitS takes place three years earlier than 2nd GIG. Any attempt to fit them together requires rewriting the timeline, which is fine, but still makes it non-canon.
Charles Scott
I guess that's why I'm not a linguist, either.

n Japan, fans of the manga were surprised that the casting caused controversy with many already assuming that the Hollywood production would choose a white actress in the lead role.[27] Sam Yoshiba, director of the international business division at Kodansha's Tokyo headquarters (the company which holds the rights to the series and its characters) said, "Looking at her career so far, I think Scarlett Johansson is well cast. She has the cyberpunk feel. And we never imagined it would be a Japanese actress in the first place... This is a chance for a Japanese property to be seen around the world."

Lincoln Brown
She's a woman, the sources saying she was once a man was a mistranslation of Shirow saying that she's a masculine character
Jaxon James
Who the fuck cares. The game is a very tight shooter with a great gimmick, which is all that matters. If you just want to jerk it to robot women, well, you gotta beat all missions in a row without losing once or quitting the game then.
Cooper White
>Zelda in the title >you play as Link
Can someone explain this blatant false advertising? I have to at least commend them for fooling so many people into thinking you will play as the princess back then. This is some high tier misleading right there which encourages a girl gamer like me into buying your game. They've done an excellent job.
Nolan Cruz

Logan Carter
>HAY, REMEMBER THIS FROM THE 1995 MOVIE At least SAC had some creativity and class when it borrowed moments.

What the fuck are you talking about? Motoko Kusanagi IS enlisted within a 'government agency' (Section 9). She would have to disclose access to her personal information which would include her medical history (D.O.B, DNA/Blood Samples, Cybernetic Implants/Upgrades) would reveal that Motoko is a woman.
Ryan Taylor
Willl you be able to create a character? kinda like the actual game? They gotta have some sort of jacket/one piece swimsuit and purple color with short hair option when creating a character or Styrofoam looking chest armor with h vr looking head sets for the eyes, you can't have a cyberpunk piece of media and not give a nod to stuff like gits and blade runner.
Hudson Gutierrez
>Appleseed will never be finished or have a good adaption Kill me.

Some old mistranslated interview had either Oshii or Shirow talk about how Motoko isn't really that girly, ie she's masculine. Bad translation turned that into "she's a man", and we've had this crap for 20 years.
Matthew Nelson
don't forget the shoulderpads
David Rogers
when was the last time a cyberpunk game did not have references to GitS in it? They will probably have that shit in 2077 unless it's a fixed protag.
Cameron Gray
The whole movie deals with her questioning if she's even human and the only thing that makes her human is because everyone tells her/treats like she's human but in reality she isn't. Maybe she's not a woman, well not anymore.
Wyatt Lewis
YES Big Puffy Shoulder pads
Evan Miller
>Bad translation turned that into "she's a man", and we've had this crap for 20 years >for 20 years
Can you give me sauce on that my friend? Also the GitS manga is way better than any of the movies & series in my oppinion. While the first movie is one of my favorite anime, both visually and aesthetically a masterwork, it kind of lacks the irony and lightweight humor of the original manga. The movies and series are also heavily infested by Oshii's "deep" philosophys. Also why is there no fucking adaption of Man-Machine Interface, it's like it's made to be adapted into an anime.
Oliver Cox
did it always look this shitty or did someone add a smoothing filter to it? This is tweening to levels that not even Production IG would resort to.
Nathan Ward
What are you on about? It looks amazing.
Matthew Gomez
Well she went full frontal in under the skin which is pretty much gits with aliens instead of robots, so maybe an ass shot and some side nipple shot under careful lighting since this is not an artsy film, would be col if they made her bottomless like the movie about show her full chest as well. Under the skin even moves super slow like the gits film and barely anyone talks init.

Owen Jenkins
Your dick would probably be grinded to a pulp in her robot vagina or something. Still worth it.
Colton Peterson
It's definitely been filtered, reminds me of those shitty BD encodes with all the grain taken out.
Tyler Perry
There's a weird digital filter applied to it adding frames where there weren't any.
Jack Bailey

Brandon Flores
I personally hope there will be character customization (at least gender and maybe hair color/style, don't care about face cause CDProject Red always have god tier females).
We know for a fact that clothing customization will be there ala Witcher 3. And if dialog choices that witcher 3 had are any indication we will be able to differentiate our character (from Zero-shit-given to save as many as possible).
We also know we can play 1st and 3rd person (deus ex style). So all that is left is that we get cool quest/missions that are inspired or make reference to other famous (as in good) cyberpunk media.

Is The New Movie actually good, but contrarians say it's shit for the sake of being contrarian and later down the line it will be remembered as being great or is it really bad?
Jaxon Harris
i link you the live performance of this, and the innocence soundtrack. kenji kawaii who wrote these pieces is also performing. youtube.com/watch?v=z64HCi2rQkE
It's just more of Arise, mediocre and forgettable.
Easton Perry
Why the fuck not? What the fuck are you event alking about, you retard?
Austin Campbell
Her body's pretty interchangeable, but it's kind of silly to cast a jew as a japanese nationalist.
But worst of all is that scarjo is: 1. Ugly as fuck 2. Cannot act her way out of a paper bag
Liam Torres
This is amazing, that concert was recorded 2007, and it sounds EXACTLY like the first time they performed these pieces for the movie in 1995
Levi Perez
Thats.. that was just beautiful, im kinda tearing up , seeing the innocence final showdown part being performed on stage is something quite amazing
Christopher Thompson
a modern day big budget movie can't go 1 minute without someone talking. Even if it's an action scene they have to cut to some random guys screaming or making a bad one liner every couple of seconds.
Joshua Sanchez
I liked that this game had the character's more fun loving incarnations from the manga.
Not that I don't love the movies and SAC.
Matthew Cooper
I've only ever watched SAC and 2nd GIG. How many movies are there and are they before or after SAC? Also, is Arise worth watching? I avoided it because it looked cheaply made, but that was only my opinion.
I need something good to watch.
Isaac Richardson
First movie is a masterpiece of visuals and aesthetics. Second is worth watching too, be aware that the movies are on a different timeline.
Henry Martinez
Arise ends with it.
Jordan Diaz
just watch the 1995 film and its sequel, they're not in canon with the tv series or the manga. arise is technical a prequel to the films but it's mediocre at best
Leo Hall
tbqh, if we're speaking purely visually, i think patlabor 2 was largely oshii taking the same visual language as the first gits but executing better on it.
Ryder Sullivan

WHICH ONE IS TRUTH
Aaron Allen
At some point Batou or someone berates her for constantly getting supermodel bods, instead of something more suitable for their kinda work, but she doesn't really say anything about it, just scoffs it off like she does with most of Batou's off-color humor, when she doesn't make him punch himself in the face.
Jose Wilson

Odd that they would create a new timeline but then in season 2 make such effort to lead into the original movie.
Andrew Fisher
>SAC>2nd Gig Can't agree with you there.
Chase Williams
Well they didn't really lead into the original movie since they followed up on 2nd GIG's ending with SSS.
Carter Richardson

William Gray
Lucky for you i'm writtings a paper on this subject, after analizing data collected from 1000 individuals from different social and ethnic groups i've reached the conclusion that nigga you gay.
Chase Turner
Also she isn't part of Section 9 anymore by SSS.
Austin Clark
no, she just controls bodies remotley like she did with the waitress in the first season to lay low. Though she can controll two bodies at once and the pupeteer in SSS seems to be controlled by her subconscious as he is seen walking into her hideout at one point.
I only recently noticed that there are actually 2 different Motoko's at the end of the original GitS, because the medical equipment next to her flips sides between shots and you can still hear the sound they make after she leaves Batou. youtube.com/watch?v=Y8fuP8VFm_I no idea what exactly they mean by this though.
Cooper Wright
Titties.
Justin Taylor
She left Section 9 at the end of 2nd gig.
Zachary Diaz
That's not a skill she had in SAC or 2nd Gig. That's a skill after she became virtualized and left Section 9. It all fits together.
David Gomez
No she didn't. 2nd Gig ended with them all in new uniforms more reminiscent of what what they wore in GitS. When was the last time you watched 2nd Gig?
Chase King
What? She uses puppet bodies throughout SAC. She says to the rest of the team to go on without her and they follow up on that in SSS with Batou questioning why she suddenly left, which makes no sense if the movie occurred in between.
Nathaniel Sanchez
these are always good threads. good job actually discussing something without resorting to shitposting, I'm almost proud of you faggots.
Will there ever come something good out of this franchise again, or will the live action movie be the final nail in its coffin?

Does anyone remember that he owns a pachinko shop full of old men playing the games in VR? Then when Sec9 needed more computing resources he pulls the processing power from the old geezers cyber brains while they're playing pachinko?
Kayden Harris
One of the reasons why i don't get the 1995 movie, the AI wanted to be able to reproduce, and in order to do that it wanted to fuse with Motoko, but Motoko can't reproduce since her body is entirely cybernetic, and then the movie simply ends.

Christian Perry
She's got a more Asian feel to her model than strictly a white person. Also, the issue is more that they rolled with ScarJo when there were other actors that fit the look and feel of the character better--and were just as competent an actor as her.
Also, all that said, Motoko is a busty character. She's got serious assets packing up front. Six to eight years ago, ScarJo would have been a more ideal cast because she had the rack to fit the character. Since she got a breast reduction, there goes that aspect of her model. Further, she isn't very attractive now. It's true that a many people do think she's hot and all that, but for a lot of people; she just doesn't cut it.
Finally, her acting itself is meh. She's often typecasted into femme fatale roles--but her execution is so-so. Which is a legitimate worry for this film, considering the significance and history of Motoko's character ranging from the original manga all the way to SAC.

yeah, I liked how cold and emotionless he/she looked in the movie.
he/she had a complete body prostetic. he/she was technically more machine than human, that's the whole point of the movie.
Christopher Taylor
I'm expecting the whole movie to be subpar, but when it comes to the Major's design, wasn't it stated that her cyber-body design is based off of a popular, common design in the past? I'd imagine she would look somewhat non-asian, or at least not have an easily identifiable race due to being a full-prosthetic cyborg.
What was the word for that? "Mukokuseki"?
Levi Sanders

Henry Sanchez
That scene is probably the manga equivalent of Episode 22 of Stand Alone Complex 1st Gig ("C: Corporate Graft – SCANDAL") where the doctor paralyses Motoko during the body swap and is going to kill her but the Laughing Man rescues her

Zachary Thomas
it sucks because it has some nice little details like that, the fact that the us servers are called the American Empire from SAC, and they got most of the voice actors from the show to do the roles, but then the game is just f2p garbage

No, post it. I actually want to see it... for reasons.

The biggest problem it has is that it's just some F2P Counter-strike/COD clone.
