MGS4: Psycho Mantis Returns

[TCWNN]

It sounds like a rendition of "Mantis' Hymn" - the music you hear prior to fighting Psycho Mantis in Metal Gear Solid

[nevfx]

What is the name of the music played during this scene?

[botswanky]

Wish this game had been more like the earlier games. Bought it, played it, and then sold it. Still own MGS1, 2 & 3 though, MGS3 is the best of the bunch.

[SATANZMOM12300974]

20 people had there memory card in -.-"



[Area51T]

best part of the game.

[clamowners3]

good old ps1 xD

[godofwarrocksman]

The sorrow is protecting our controller and ps3 in the real world.He is real!!!

[OmegaTsunami]

DAMN THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY!!!!

[smashbrosfan25]

worst display of psychic powers ever

[flashybeatles]

If you buy it on the PSN all he reads is your save frequency.

[MastaGambit]

This scene went way overboard with all the fourth wall-breaking. -_-

[MegaBondagemon]

@MastaGambit MGS is full of 4th wall breaking X3

[MastaGambit]

@MegaBondagemon Yeah. I know. But my point is the fact that A KEY STORY EVENT OCCURS INVOLVING THE 4TH WALL. Dieing because of being unable to handle the controller's rumble? like... really? That takes it a bit too far IMO. Even for MGS. :\

[ShowerIsForNoobs]

@MastaGambit He can still rumble your controller and die afterwards.

[afronoodle]

screaming mantis has a cool mask, so did raging raven, why cant i have a cool mask

[BoyzNAcne]

I think some of the controllers did not have dual shock 3 at the moment so he couldnt move crap lol

[SpartanSniper3]

Bastard may have scared the shit outta me in MGS1, but now I have had the last laugh!

[stopmotioncrazyman]

Why did he freak out about vibration being back?

[TheGamecubeAdvancers]

That was The Sorrow at the end talking.

[Whitedusk225]

@TheGamecubeAdvancers It's so cool how all these things fit together.

[ruaridh2k7]

TRAITOR!!!!!

Howdy Hideo ^^ Or should I call you.. God?

[SuperNewada]

I guess in next game Psycho-Mantis will learn how to delete all your save data...

[brycemallumakopp]

@SuperNewada Oh God (Hideo Kojima.)

[10Raccoon]

@SuperNewada You know what? That wouldn't surprise me......

[xxxXOctaneXxxx]

i shat my pants when i saw him return

[KhorneProphet]

when does cut scene happen after you kill screaming mantis?

[SynchroWind]

The Sorrow will always be one my fav. characters in video game history

[randompersonsayshi]

Wait. PS3 has an internal memory card for PS1 games. If I have Castlevania saved on there do you think it would work? I must find this game now!!!!!

[SynchroWind]

@randompersonsayshi Nope

[armando92]

@randompersonsayshi nope, but if you play mgs1 it will work :)

[ThePunkrocker89]

please plug controller in port two

[shiftian]

That was so awesome

[HRKVR1]

(body attaches it's self back together and snake turns around)

Maintis: excellent snake

Snake: huh?

Maintis: it's seems u can't believe ur own eye. Lawl :D, very well I will show u the power of the worlds greatest mindreader in psychoconeises. Hrs right this Is no trick it's true power! Let's start by reading ur personality or rather ur past ( trys to read data) wat! where is ur data where is it saved! There's no memory card' DAM ur skilz hav improved, or rather ur hardware...how bout this th

[fluffyforpeace]

I wish you actually got fight him

[jengofrett]

i dont know why but psycho mantis was always my favorite mgs villain

[ThyHoneyNut]

and now i will move your controller....................­..."what the fuck is wirelesssssssssss..... nooooooooooo"

[TheJovanist]

"Charizard?"  @2::17

[gokuandmario4ever]

@TheJovanist 2:17

[herio907]

So, he was just a gag character?

[MagogOFF]

Psycho Mantis will return when he learned to read data from your hard drive......in 2012

[MarioLuigi43]

Psycho Mantis was defeated by the PS3

[juegew3]

2:30 the sorrow? o_o

[shiftian]

@juegew3 yea, and also, when you get a certain killing spree, Snake will throw up and you will hear the Sorrow saying 'You just enjoy all the killing."

[jlmdfnbo]

In my opinion this was one of the most epic moments in video games' history.

[GuitarrAssassin]

i wonder if psycho mantis knows ive been playing zone of the eders 2.

*grabs copy of the rare game*

[EKB1E]

lol I was like U MAD BRO?

[FANATICOREACH]

You like Castlevania...don´t you?

[LynnJynh9315]

I wonder... does Psycho Mantis know that I've been playing Konami's Suikoden II?!?! *Hides rare game in terror*

[sonicshooter15]

TRY READING MY MEMORY CARD NOW BITCH!

[CodyHeldreth]

VIBRATION IS BACK!!!

[mkfoxdie]

Psycho Mantis was the Best Bossfight ever and the famous on the Game History

[acmasta619]

what happens when you buy mgs1 of psn store??? i wonder?

[ThyHoneyNut]

@acmasta619 lol let me know when u figure it out

[acmasta619]

i turned my controller vibrsation off t time coz i thought it would help to beat the boss

[kyflowerfish]

ha ha , I put the controller on floor , and it really move forward !!

[ApplethiefProduction]

Watching this on my phone, and at 1:52 I got a text, so my phone vibrated......I was amazed

[iCheesey]

Dammit! When he popped out I was going "YES! YES I WAS PLAYING SONIC UNLEASHED- HOW DID YOU KNOW??" Oh well, at least I got to see my controller move from the force of his will.

[adambdpimp]

*check your ps3 internet browser history*

Mantis: You watch a lot of porn!

[ronki23]

It would've been nice to fight Mantis again because Screaming Mantis was easy once you Voodoo her. Wouldn't it have been easier for him to read a HDD/ what did he say about vibration? It still vibrates when he explodes lol

[vc180191]

@ronki23 He shouts "VIBRATION IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!", there's actually something incredibly funny about this, in that it's compared to what remote you used, if you utilise the original SIXAXIS remote, he screams in rage about there being no vibration, since the SIXAXIS is motion sensitive instead, but using the DualShock 3 gives this response.

[ronki23]

@vc180191 but my controller didn't move when he said that and it did when he exploded when Screaming Mantis exploded! Wouldn't it move if he goes "Vibration is back!" or when he tries to move it with his will?

[J1994M]

What? There's no memory card?!?!? ....Uh, I hadn't planned on this, so, do you like Nintendo games?

[sonichog4]

@J1994M There are no nintendo games on PS3 idiot

[J1994M]

@sonichog4 That was a reference to what he says in MGS: Twin Snakes on the gamecube.....he reads your memory card and then says "So you like Nintendo games?!"

[RubasJLeone]

Damn!!! This just reminded me how much i love this psycho bastard...

Everything about him is sooooo creepy!!! His image, his voice, his breath, his moves, his powers, his sarcasm, his theme music...EVERYTHING!!!

One of the best videogame character ever created! BADASS!!!

[Cactusman129]

What killed him again??

[riazman]

Damn You Phsyco Mantis...Damn Yo!!!!....Can't You Just Let This Go?!?...Leave PSN Out Of This!!!

[tfp1119]

they just but this part in for laughs didnt they

[Cherryblossoms13100]

I see you enjoy MGS games, as well as other ps3 exclusives.

You look up videos of epic scenes in video games so you can enjoy them multiple times.

Now I shall move your mouse to the like button with my will alone.

(grunting noises)

You are considering giving me thumbs up.

[Sky71576]

@Cherryblossoms13100 OMG HOWD U DO THA ,_,

[videogamemaster223]

is it me or does snake look like a grandpa

[imlieksokewl123]

@videogamemaster223 He's old in this so yea

[paulosbruzzi]

18 ppl had their memory card read by Mantis ;D

[dxrulz999]

lol took a shot at snake "i see you can't believe your eye".....i though big boss lost jis eye in MGS3

[AtarixTheReal]

fuckin' classic

[adarshsly]

that voice was saying TRAITOR!, its was supposed to be god, it sayd in the credits of the voice cast that kojima is god

[PlayStation3MLB]

lol i laugh everytime i see this, i love konami, but now that he is also on fuming xbox, he can go f*** him self

[oldsnake3595able]

a ps1?

[ZavanMerchant]

@oldsnake3595able yeah back from when you fight psycho mantis, the ONLY way to fight him was to unplug your controller and plug it into the second slot.

[DeathBringer769]

@ZavanMerchant You can beat him without plugging it into the 2nd slot.

[ZavanMerchant]

@DeathBringer769 no, that was the only way.

[DeathBringer769]

@ZavanMerchant No, you're completely wrong lol. I beat it back when I first got the game without doing that. It takes much longer though. Eventually Campell will ask you why you can't plug into the 2nd port, and tell you to smash the vases in his room. You should know what you're talking about before posting.

[ZavanMerchant]

@DeathBringer769 douchebag.

[ZavanMerchant]

@DeathBringer769 yeah if you use hacks.

[HeavyWeaponsBaby]

'Flashing PS1'

NOO IT'S NOT TRUEE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[DuxunPlanetrunner]

It's funnier if you have the ps3 controller that doesn't rumble :D

[paer76]

HAAAAAAAAAX

[Alexdude99887]

welcome to the PS3 bitch

[Letsplayer99]

that was THE epic moment of MGS4!!!

[beserkerchild17]

dam now i know who took my memory card

[bloodbane5000]

m,m,m,m,MIND FUCK

[louie540x]

I love that Hymn at 0:35

I don't think it's on the OST though :(

[unitedoverload2]

this is the fuck up thing i ever played before he was really the first boss i faced in msg still he was really cool

[DEVILHUNTERXXXX]

He Hacked the PSN network because the ps3 has no memory card

[mmichaelwwong]

@DEVILHUNTERXXXX i wonder what'd happen if you actually had the memory card converter and then plugged a save file from a ps1 mem card.

[Flashlight1996]

What the fuck is this game about?

[merritt2014]

@Flashlight1996 This scene won't make sense if you haven't played the original mgs

[Flashlight1996]

@merritt2014 I saw a video of Mantis in MGS 1, he was supposed to mimic your controller and saved games, but i still don't get what the fuck is this game about.

[deadmeat90]

@Flashlight1996 You still dont understand the story after playing it this far? Its about war to put it simple obviously theres a lot more to it then just a simple war though.

[Flashlight1996]

@deadmeat90 I guess Japanese wars that barely have any asian people in them are different...

[mooseinabox]

i love how they keep giving props to the playstation through the whole game.

[MastahChief101]

So Mantis dies because of no memory card?

[SnowSniper98]

Sorrow and mantis are there. I guess its to remind us that they pwn. Alot. With no items or guns. And I do think Psycho Mantis, the Sorrow and the Screaming mantis are the Anonymous. And the anonymous hacked PSN. Nikolai, PM is awsome but he couldn't pull that off...

[Neonshell227]

Quick! Grab the other Controller!

[matrixdante]

if you press X or l1 when it is indicated,you can see The sorrow

[MrSyahdewa]

@matrixdante yeah when there a sound like "the spirit of the warrior will always be with you"right?

[umagarandyorton619]

PM: "Where's your Memory Card?"

Me: Ha ha! Who's laughing NOW, huh? >:D

[mysterykcad]

Mantis: I'm going to be a boss.

Snake: Am I hallucinating?

Mantis: You like meeeen...

Snake: You can see into my mind?

Mantis: No.

Snake: Fuck.

[WillGetSuspendedSoon]

@MarzX1802 Ooooo. You can regurgitate a joke from Egoraptor. You feel proud of yourself?

[MarzX1802]

@WillGetSuspendedSoon Yes I do lol But I only posted that to kind of make fun of the other guy who posted a quote from Metal Gear Awesome

[StiftungFabiTest]

Psycho Mantis is my Favorit Boss :) And Solid Snake (David) my Favorit Player ^^

In German like Amerika MGS4 is all over the world :) the ons of the Favorit GAMES :)

Ich liebe MGS4 dass ist dass beste spiel Überhaupt :D hab 20Std. gebraucht um auf normal durchzuspielen ergebniss : Medalie Adler weil ich so viele Kopfschüsse gemacht habe ^^

[ShinryuuP]

PFFFFT

1:12

[qasem01ishalomaster]

dr octagonapus blaghhhhh

[cokiesQ8]

Dudes the sorrow brought psycho mantis from the dead just like MGS3 cuz he can bring any spirit snake/anyone killed

[Karlmcguiness]

Psycho Mantis will forever be a legend, third to Boss and Big Boss.

[arnis666]

Mantis said Sorrow when he coudn't move that controler and disapiered ?

[strikehawk20]

@ohvist me

[NikolaiCarpathia]

So what you're telling me, is...... Psycho Mantis is the one that hacked Playstation Network?

[mmichaelwwong]

@NikolaiCarpathia oh so thats how he got a hold of the memory card files!!!

[Esupanitix]

@NikolaiCarpathia Overkill.

[tehraider123]

@NikolaiCarpathia Oh that, callous, sadistic, psychic, mind reading, psychokinetic, controller vibrating, MOTHERFUCKER!

[NikolaiCarpathia]

@tehraider123 I think I'm sensing parts of Dragonball Z Abridged in that rant of yours. Good job.

[TraceurHarryG1]

@NikolaiCarpathia lol if psycho mantis was real and did hack the network i would be like AWESOME!

[vats3]

@ohvist i wish he WAS his own game

[AlmightyMacky]

"The Spirit Of The Worrior Is Always Be With You" that was The Sorrow Talking lol could it be he's the one who intervene between snake and psychomantis in this scene?

[SwissWolv]

Wait.. why exactly did he die?

[themrmustazz]

@ohvist He controlled Screaming Mantis, who controlled all the other beasts, so he kinda gave Snake some ass whipping.

[Shanker420]

Greatest MGS boss EVER.

[DarkBota1]

18 personos doesnt have the vibration

[krzStopmotions]

w8, so psyco mantis still hates him??? i thought they were cool now.

[XxD1EAN0TH3RD4YxX]

@krzStopmotions He doesn't. If he did there'd be a psycho mantis boss fight. He just wanted to show off that's all.

[aidanplastation3]

Do you Like MLB 09? I see you played Call of Duty:World at War Nazi zombies. Do you play Little Big Planet? Fuck You for using a wireless controller. I think the Xbox is your twin? I see you played Spiderman 3. Fuck SONY for making the memory card the system.

[klavierGavinlover]

Ah Metal Gear... in each game there is garenteed at least one momet of "Where the F**k did my forth wall go?!?!" I love it.

[godofwarrocksman]

@ohvist i'm more interest in the sorrow

[cyberwetter]

it seems like this would be a joke

[gianjoloceymarc]

in soviet russia..

snake's scouter destroys YOU!

[BigBossMITM100]

It's awesome how you can have both different Psycho Mantis endings with the Wireless Controller whenever you want:D

[NemesisTheZombieKing]

THERES NO MEMORY CARD! best line in the game imo

[arnis666]

Psycho Mantis can control any time and any place and any one except Snake

[Deddshot]

Psycho Mantis: Put your controller on the floor, and I'll move it with the power of my mind!

Snake:WTF is he talking about?

[lolfreak21196]

so, is this telling you that it can be played on the ps1?

[aRYin2649]

where is your mgs1 ? what?you haven't download it in the ps store?

[xslypher]

Fuck! I only have sixaxis!

[RedxLilxSleepy]

the sorrow is a bitch for letting mantis go

[camarorider67]

The minute I saw Psycho I thought "Ah hell, here we go again"

[MrBassem95]

@camarorider67 me to i thought i was gonna have another fight

[banthonygant]

The Sorrow thinks he's so damn funny, allowing Mantis to go back and face Snake probably knowing full well he can't even beat the PS3 system. I can imagine The Sorrow watching this from Other World laughing his ass off at Mantis.

[Sphyshious]

i like how snakes like "huh?"

[TheDude9491]

psycho mantis did not adapt to the ps3-save-techinc? epic fail...

[Shetyre]

dun dun dudududum DUN DUN DUN !

[Flint925]

psycho mantis sums up my life

we both have sick obsessions with vibration items

yes, I know what I am saying...

[Moopzoo]

It looks like he destroys the screaming mantis suit with his penile thrust...

*yeaaahhh* -suit blows up-

[Speekies]

psycho mantis and psx memoy card are back

[OmegaXAdvent]

What I ment was that if you have a controller (PS3) WITHOUT dualshock....to put it short....Spycho Mantis flips the F*** out!

[JDueler11]

Wow. Psycho Mantis must be so good, he's able to break the fourth wall.

[JDueler11]

Wow. Psycho Mantis must be so goog, he's able to break the fourth wall.

[TimeLegacy]

"Vibration is back!"

Don't know why, but this part made me laugh.

[OmegaXAdvent]

I was so wishing to fight him again...Besides who wouldnt want to fight him again! Also watch what happens if you have a PS3 controller without dual shock hell freak out! And I also wish snake wouldve gestured you to put it down again that would bring back some shur fire memorys from MGS1!

[thegreenghost1000]

@OmegaXAdvent i have a ps3 controller with dualshock and when this scene came i set it on the floor and it actually shaked

[5nesta]

@SteadeeB Its like a trip back memory lane 4 thoughs that played Metal Gear Solid 1 and they have Psycho Mantis doin everything he did back then like the "put ur controller on the floor" part and he also would read your memory card data

[hanson668]

So if he's vulnrable to 20 years of ps advancement so that means the others characters or soldiers are still being controlled by a Psx controller?

[SteadeeB]

till this day i dont know wtf this whole part ment

[TheFreakbass]

What says in? 2:17

I love Psycho Mantis.

Metal Gear Solid 1, the best videogame of metal gear saga.

[723PanTera]

@TheFreakbass yeah does he say?

[723PanTera]

@TheFreakbass i meant what does he say?

[lonelysith66]

The one thing I've learn about the MGS series is that everyone's sexually repressed on some level.

LOL XD

[lonelysith66]

@Athens561987 "Hes still stuck in 1998"

I wish I was.

LOL XD

[f00db01]

c'mon psycho mantis ps3 isnt that bad...

[NEMESIS2K199]

Mantis if you know this game, how about to read the manual and later you kick the ass to Snake, you only have to annoying Snake and later hope the bettery of controler is dead.

[roofstones]

It is reduntant, meaningless and arbitrary.. But it still sent enough shivers down my spine to force me go get a glass of water.. Psycho Mantis, the greatest boss of all time.

[livesNeXTd00r]

I love the controller thing :) ...

[MynoriaWolf]

he says '' ur skills have improved'',if improved is not having a memory card from Ps1,which i think its impossible to put in a PS3... then yeah ''improved''

[Shanker420]

@MynoriaWolf That's why he says "or rather, your hardware".

[Shadowzan]

I wish this moment was kept serious. I was so excited to see Mantis back with the hymn playing.....and then it just turned into a joke :-/

[Sammo212]

@Shadowzan yeah, I love MGS and Kojima but there was too much silly stuff in 4 for it being as important to MGS as it is.

[OtakuEmma]

@Shadowzan The Mantis' existence was pretty much a joke from the start anyway.

[YawnGod]

Good thing I'll never play MGS4, because if I would have I'd have killed myself for spoiling such an epic moment in the game. The music...the nostalgia...it's too much.

[Killerx20]

im looking for this version of mantis hymn, not the one that came with the soundtrack

[Zdude3255]

Will someone explain to me what just happened?
