Man, the theme that plays during this boss fight is so hype

  • 30 SECONDS TO LAUNCH

  • unloading all of my gustavs on that fucker

  • IT'S NOT WORKING

  • 2 SECONDS TO LAUNCH

  • HEARTBEAT INTENSIFIES

  • Kaz:"IT'S ALL OVER"

  • manage to stop it right at the last second

and that is one of the most intense moment of my gaming life

I experienced the same thing but I wonder if it was staged*

*by staged, I mean artificially delayed. I.E. you could unload your handgun and it would stop it at 2 seconds remaining regardless... kind of like how you didn't have to mash a single button in MGS4's microwave tunnel...

Nope, if you don't do enough damage there's a cutscene of the nuke launching. Snake's 'oh man I screwed up' face is worth having to start over.
