Minecraft Legacy Console Edition apparently leaked on 4chan recently, too: https://github.com/MCLCE/MinecraftConsoles Almost no coverage on HN or mainstream media though. Surprising, considering the popularity of this game.
Trying to explain why a Minecraft Legacy leak is worth anything when we have decompiled Java takes too long.

Re: Metal Gear Solid 2's source code has been leaked on 4chan
#142I wonder if it’s a real leak or just an agent recreation of the source from machine code. I’ve been having fun lately with agents and decompilation. You can literally point them at any game and ask them to decompile the game and structure and format as if it was the original source code. Asking them to ensure it compiles works fine. Some proof: i made online save game editors for jagged alliance 3; grandcheaten.com a…
There is no way you could recreate a convincing enough 90s era codebase of a japanese videogame + its associated tools + scripts and commented out codepaths with current ai tools.

...what? I watched the Dunkey video linked elsewhere and thought he was making it up, he wasn't? The whole story is just random stuff happening?
It's not really "random", there is a coherent story (and a moral to that story) underneath all the weirdness and you'll sometimes forget how crazy it's gotten because your current objective tends to make sense (ex: "defuse the bombs"). But all MGS games are basically playable Kojima manifestos with sci-fi trappings. The actual minute-to-minute gameplay for them is really, really good so even if you don't dig the stor…
everything about them makes sense when you think of them as Naruto or Onimusha but with a gun fetish.

#146Being the Vita/360 versions makes this much more usable. I would be having a little panic attack if I had to go back to working on PS2 only code. I mean you came to like the thing but I'm convinced it was a form of digital Stockholm syndrome.
I've only played the original PlayStation 2 release, but wasn't the PS2 release of Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance the version with the most content? I'd take a leak of that one over the other versions.

Everyone focuses on that part, but what the hell was with the girl that could repel bullets but it turns out that it was magnets but actually maybe she does have powers? And what about the weird thing where you start sword fighting your father/president/clone? Yeah I know, sure, fake information on the internet. It's so prescient I guess, but the actual story is incomprehensible.
>Yeah I know, sure, fake information on the internet. It's so prescient I guess, but the actual story is incomprehensible. apply this logic to john carpenter movies and they fall apart, too. Escape from LA is just about as absurd, just less paranormal.

I don't know, this is starting to hit to close to home.

> Clearly if it was able to be leaked it already was being preserved Preserved by whom ? Many leaks are done by old or ex-employees who quietly kept a shall we say 'backup' of their work. More than one 'official' re-release has been rumored to be an embarrassed company quietly filing the serial numbers off a rogue leak because they realized way too late that their archival practices were inadequate.

Not much, just accurately predicted the next 30 years exactly

I'm just kidding. That game doesn't have an ending.
