It's not like Halo 3 (for example) is the same old worn out idea is it? ...
Funny how you attack Halo 3 because it's on an opposing console.

Howcome you didn't say the same about any video game series?

Because everyone feels it's ok to attack PS3 don't they? If you din't notice i added (for example) I could say the same about FF25

You shoulda said mario 40, he doesn't like the wii lol
 
Just watched it. Graphics looked great though as a person whose never played a MGS game I found some of the tongue in cheek elements (mens magazine, being sick, barrel camo) a little ott.

Lol, every time I look at Snake though I do feel it would be a little odd playing as someone who looks like he needs a zimmerframe and stana stairlift.

One I'll keep my eye on as I do like a good Stealth game (if someone would only make a new Thief game).

Yeah, MGS games always get pushed back, Kojima is like that, needs to get it perfect.. Will be even moreso now it is a worldwide release
 
The serious MGS fans will only be interested in this for the closure anyway.

The way I see it is that 1 was the best (in terms of story and game play) and that the main driving point for the others is just to see how it all ends up.

They've all been descent games though, it's just that 1 made it for me and now I'm mainly in it for the cut scenes.

Any descent game play is a bonus.

MGS looks far better that gears of war, gears of war was released around a year after the 360 was so you can see from that, that they are getting to grips with *** ps3 hardware far quicker than they did with the 360
lol... wtf... Just wtf. It doesnt look anywhere near as good as GOW. Also... Uhmmm... wont MGS4 be released about a year after the PS3 release?!

Sorry to turn this into a 360 v ps3 thing but i think that this just proives the point that a lot of people have been trying to make for a while now!
Whats that?
 
Looks great, all the mgs in the series have always been slightly OTT, and for me i think it adds to the gameplay, look at characters like vamp or mantis, all OTT but gets you sucked in more to the gameplay, and at the end of the day that's what it is...a game.
 
I can't wait for this installment, i've loved all the series so far, and this only improves on a lot of things, i only wished they hadn't made snake so old and added a few more installments, shame this is kojimas last MGS, even though he said that about mgs 2 :p
 
Just watched the high quality trailer.

Have to say, the gadgets look great.. love the look of the UI (when using the SolidEye and such), and I can see great replayability value.

Things I thought that were lacking include:

*The AI (I know it was on low, but he basically walked up to one PMC side-on)
* The OctoCamo looks good but they should make it more like the stealth suit in #1 (visually less obvious??).

Thought the mini metal-gear robot was nifty (laughed at the PS3 controller) for negotiating the battlefield and spotting enemies behind cover although it will probably get less use than the SolidEye for me.

In a way I'm a bit gutted that I watched the trailer because now the wait begins, and I've just hyped it up so it's going to seem longer :(

Really nice looking game nonetheless :)

I assume all the people in here who don't think it is anything special are now quite relived ([edit] i think relived is the wrong word here) it isn't going onto the 360?

I can't help but think if this had been E3 and Peter Moore pull Kojima on stage to show this off as a major coup for MS everybody would think it looks gorgeous. As it is a PS3 exclusive, and this is ocuk, many folks on here, who don't have a PS3 and have expressed little/no intension of getting one are now saying it doesn't look good.

Makes me laugh tbh.


Im so fed up with everyone assuming that any negative comment whatsoever about the ps3, its games or anything remotely connected to it is from an xbox 360 fanboy who is 'jealous' is it not possible that we can express a truthful opinion about a video we have seen? :rolleyes:
 
Thing is with MGS it always seems to make stealth fun.

Splinter Cell on the other hand, while it is good (apart from PT and DA :mad: ), is a bit of a snore fest.

I love MGS, I love the characters, the settings, the story, the music, and the silly little things. Plus it's one of the few games that has "Boss Battles" which are fantastic and wish we had more of them.
 
Anyways, Althought a lot of people have had bad things to say for about this game, I've loved MGS since the first one. And this looks like a good addition to the series.

So i'm happy and if others arent then tough :p
 
Just got the the gameplay demo from the Japan PSN Store , its about 683 Mb didnt take long to download. Even more impressed watching it on a bigger screen in Full HD!

Well my TV doesnt do 1080P and i dont speak Japanese, but when i press the info button shows as 1080I which is good enough for me!
May well be on the PSN store on thursday/friday
 
Wasnt overally impressed with the gamplay footage, but its still a while off some things may improve. just found some areas lacking.

Animation on the scripted scenes is great, like when hes padding someone down, but the normal walking around, running etc doesnt look that great, and he still appears to moon walk when he walks into a wall, a pet hate of mine.

gameplay looks a little stunted, and this is being played by someone that has proberbly lived and breathed this game. the action just didnt seem to flow, dipping into menue's every 5 secs.

I just dont get the whole realistic one min then stupid floating stars around the heads the next. another example is when he is sick, that stays in the game, yet when he jumps out of the barrel the big steel barrel just vanishs?

Guess its still very early in development so I will reserve final judgement, but this was the game that I thought was going to make me buy a PS3, and right now it just looks like splinter cell with amazing cut scenes.
