Okay, I don't have a suggestion to replace the current image, but really... I have no idea how the picture relate to the trope, even remotely.

He took your gear. It's a bit reliant on knowing the subject matter.

Possibly just a pic of naked Raiden from Metal Gear Solid 2? Can't get much more "No Gear" than naked and covering your junk with your hands.

Still a bad quality image. And why is Mario blue? I'd say pull, but it shouldn't be hard to find a replacement.

[up]It's bad Mario taking your shit so you get to do tedious platforming puzzles without your magic water jetpack

[up][up] I'm really down for the Raiden idea if we could find a good enough picture.

Oh really when?

Here's a start. First or second panel seem better than the third.

I'm liking the first panel, not sure if the next two are strictly needed.

My intent was to pick the best of the three and just use that, not to use all three.

First and second work. On their own.

First and second only.

[up] Both? I was leaning toward just the first, personally. Just the second as backup, if the first's a little too squicky for some people (although Raiden here has Barbie Doll Anatomy, the game just does a good job of hiding that fact).

I wouldn't mind a little context, say from the cutscene that led into the level. Maybe that and #3 (because #3 is funny).

No need for more than one picture; first look best I think, since the character is still sneaking around (i.e. trying to do the level) with no gear.

I don't suppose there are any segments from that level where it's mentioned how he doesn't have any gear on him?

1 is fine on its own. Keep it simple. [tup]

Rhymes with "Protracted."

[up][up] He's running around in his birthday suit. I don't think dialog spelling it out is necessary.

Also, while I've never gotten this far in MGS2, I think this is around the point where your allies start going haywire ("I need scissors! 61!", etc). Anyone who has played this segment, feel free to correct me.

[up][up][up] No, but there are some very insightful discussions about famous purple stuffed worms and scissors.

[tup] for 1.

I'm good with 1 but I'd probably leave it to a quick crowner to decide.
