Some of the songs in my list like this one are purely out of nostalgia. Sometimes when you hear a song, you can attach it to an image or a moment in a game. I played the game right after Ocarina of Time (great year) and the story-telling was really memorable. The fight with Psycho Mantis was one of the highlights so this hymn got stuck in my head.

"You liiike meeeeeen."

"Holy crap you can read my mind?"

"No."

"Crap.

[VGKing]

"So, you like to play Chrono Trigger."

"So you like to play Mario don't you?" - Twin Snakes 

[HydroMonsoon]

"So! You like to play Castlevania!!"

"Hw-wh-whuh-w-WHAT?!'

[tengutenga]

"I can read you like an open book!"

"You have been listening to VGM all day!"

"And you do watch anime a lot..."

"Hmm, you disliked a video by accident!"

"And I see you aspire to create something viral..."

"Were you heartbroken by that naughty cartoon's non-sequitur ending?"

"Still don't believe me?"

@LinkMarioSamus switch the controller ports with the ps button

Yes creepy mantis man, I do enjoy the creative works of Konami. Why do you ask?

I've heard so many stories about people getting freaked out when he was "reading your mind", but since I got this with a MGS trilogy pack, and had no other PS1 games, he just said "hmmm, your memory is completely clean!"

missed opportunity.

:'c

@LinkMarioSamus Good question. I'm thinking maybe you'd have to turn on a second controller while the first is still active, and then play the fight with the second one.

[LinkMarioSamus]

@SupraDarky Well I haven't played any MGS game yet, but I hope to play through at least the original this year if not 2, 3, and Peace Walker (and 4, perhaps).

Just a stupid question though: how would I defeat Psycho Mantis using the PS3? Would the same "change the controller port" strategy work?
