Some guy also had a Metal Gear Solid codec ringtone...

Whenever I hear someone with the codec ringtone I stop and say METAL GEAR!?

:lol :lol :lol That made me LOL pretty good.

And btw: The ruppee sound for a text message is an awesome idea!

The MGS codec message went off today in our lecture at university. My friend has that ring tone, and went to grab his phone. He then realised that it was the lecturers phone! :lol

Haha. That's awesome.
 
I used to have the alert sound, but it scared me every time. I have the codec for text, and The Last Guy music for my ringtone

I want the "!" for text messages.

My ringtone is Magical Sound Shower :D

I have the "!" for texts, and the codec for calls. I have had to send it to a half a dozen friends who wanted it.
 
A friend of mine has that ringtone. I hear it and automatically think, "This is Snake."

and lol @ the people who think the pound in this context is money.
 
We don't think it means that in this context, but it certainly makes it slightly more amusing.


You should have shouted out "Snake? SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!"
 
maybe it's just that people are more hip in NY, but lots of people have metal gear codec ringtones. i've heard that a bunch, oh, and the CTU ring is extremely popular.
 
My text sound is from SSBB actually, when Snake wins the match, his victory tune is what I'm using ^_^.

Which is fucking awesome btw.

Contrary to popular belief, not everyone on GAF is a virgin. You should see the Off-Topic's girlfriend thread, some good wanking material there for you.
Is not you having a gf, but they simultaneously rolling eyes. And pictures of my wife are there btw.

I don't know...plenty of people do that in NY when there's a a mutual understanding or connection of some kind. I've had people shake my hand or give me a pound just because they'd find out we drive the same kind of car.

Happens in Houston too.
 
This has happened to me. Once in Target like a month ago and today in class, both times it was pretty weird. Its becoming more popular I believe.
 
I think someone at my work has the codec ringtone, I hear it occasionally in the office...but I don't think it's intentional, seems like it's more a phone's default ringtone than something actually ripped out of MGS.

I, on the other hand, have FFVI's victory tune set as my default ringtone (yes my inner fanboy copied it from Advent Children :D)...I make sure keep my phone on silent at the office though. I had it accidentally blare out when I was at an anime convention one time while riding in a shuttle, just after a couple of notes of the fanfare people in the bus were looking towards me and started giggling, I quickly cut it off...that, I admit, was a little embarrassing =P
 
I've got FF7 boss battle music as my ringtone, and the Shining Force 2 Overworld theme as my alarm. I considered using the Codec sound, but it seemed a little too...obvious.

So what's the problem, then? I can't mention that I was with my girlfriend during the occurrence? It's some sort of taboo now on a videogame message board? Ohtehnoes.

Fake Edit: That same night, I was at a friend's party and was talking to a guy from school about videogames, he brought up the PS3 and how amazing MGS4 was. It'd be funny if both of them posted on GAF.

Almost certainly.

My ringtone is the theme music from the original Super Mario Bros btw.

yeah.
 
I have a live rock band cover of Go K.K. Rider as my tone. Not even a big animal crossing fan, but what a tune.

I don't think I could ever have the FF victory music or the mario theme or something as my ringtone. I like the ambiguity KK Rider gives me, those that recognise give the geek nod, others just think it's some rock song.
