METAL GEAR SOLID 4!!

Postby TORSO on Wed Jun 11, 2008 9:08 pm

Well its out tomorrow and from the sound of things its going to be good, which is nice as its one of the best series of games ever!

Hopefully this clears up all the loose ends with an epic story and finally brings the series to a close (well it has been going 20 years since Metal Gear came out on the MSX)

So i think im heading over my mates to go through it like we have done with the other 3.

I can't believe this is happening, it's finally coming out and I can't even fucking buy it. How much longer will I have to save up to get a fucking stupidly expensive 'cheap version' PS3 that isn't even backwards compatible and just has 2 USB ports?!!@?!@!>@£<!>@£<@M£<!@£<!@

I'm going with Stu to buy it tomorrow and play at his house and cry with the utmost jealously I'll probably ever have felt in my life. Well, probably not in my entire life, but it'll definitely be up there. From the one review I saw quotes from, it's the best thing ever ever ever and really does tie up all the loose ends of the story and possibly the ending is the best thing ever. And apparently there's a 90 minute cut scene! You can pause it mid-scene now though, which is nice.

Should be getting this tomorrow if it doesn't sell out everywhere, I really cannot wait, I've been a massive fan of Metal Gear Solid for many years now and I'm sure this won't disappoint in the slightest.

I am going to get a new phone contract just to get a ps3 so i can play it, lol.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

a bit excessive, why not just borrow/rent one, or buy a cheap one

That seems ridiculous. Alright, I know it has a story but come on...
"And what about the churches and all their wealth
There's an unseen fortune under their belts
Are golden temples a symbol of God's way
This horde of wealth is a sickening display"

See, I thought we had video games and films as seperate things for a reason. If I wanna watch a film I'll watch one, if I wanna play a game, I'll play one, if I'm playing a game I don't wanna watch a fucking film!!!

Are they gonna release it with the stupidest camera angles ever then re-release it with proper ones?

The first MGS absolutely reigns supreme, 2 was alright and 3.... I cba tbh.
