Who said it: Metal Gear Solid or 50 Shades of Grey?

50 Shades of Grey Fox

50 Shades of Grey Fox

The Metal Gear Solid games are wonderfully in-depth stories. Filled with unique characters and smart ideas, all placed within detailed, well-realised worlds, Metal Gear games are masterclasses in video game making and perfectionism. But sometimes their dialogue is a bit silly. And rude. And a little... over-the-top. Much like the word-guff found in trashy lady-porn book 50 Shades of Grey. See where I'm going with this?

So, I thought it'd be fun to take 10 quotes from both the MGS games and 50 Shades, mix them up, and ask you all to identify where they're from? The following are real quotes from either 50 Shades or MGS, set to calming lifestyle imagery of lovely, shiny people playing video games. Can you correctly guess where all 10 quotes come from? I think you'll struggle.

Highlight the empty area under each quote for the answer.

That's all for now--don't want you all getting too worked up with all the sexy dialogue. How many did you get? All 10? Then you must be a fan of both Metal Gear Solid and 50 Shades of Grey. Well done you. Only scored a few points? Guess you're not really into MGS or S&M. That's probably fine too. Better, in fact.
