 Digg.com Facebook Google Bookmarks N4G Gamerblips del.icio.us Reddit Slashdot.org StumbleUpon this isnt metal gear solid, sorry.
it will play more like ninja gaiden. not looking forward to this. Just the Wii left to port to then?! This guy sure has a strange way of expressing his disappointment about it not being a 360 exclusive. Popcorn? Check.
Comfy (swivel) seat? Check
A sense of humour? Check.
Whose going to join me? you'll need to bring some refreshments though :wink: . They'll be cheap refreshments though (think Space Invaders and Cola!). Day before payday and all that! :) So one less retard stinking up any online game modes then.
If it's not metal gear solid what do the letters MGS in the title stand for?
And of course you'll have already played the game considerably before posting your uninformed comment. They are making such a big deal out of this. I mean it's not even a proper Metal Gear Solid game, but more like a spinoff or something. Action game.
For some reason they are forgetting MGS2 on the xbox.
I don't know, I think this is quite a hilarious situation with them screaming with joy like little kids, acting almighty about a spinoff and meanwhle the real Metal Gear Solid game and sequel to MGS3, Peace Walker is coming to PSP, a handheld and not a home console. :lol:
Will be getting both day one anyway. its a watered down all-platforms action game.
its not my fault you bought a 360. The guy's right, it's all about maximising profits and minimising risks for the 3rd Party devs, so the historically Sony only franchises were bound to go multi-platform sooner rather than later.
Then there's the small matter of the hardware manufacturers spending big on exclusive content and timed exclusivity which if it happens in the case of MGS will probably cost a serious wedge. I guess he's getting at MS having access to GTA and now MGS. But it's the first party exclusives that make the difference by and large, and while I'm not worried about having nothing to play on my 360, Sony seems to be trumping MS in 2009/10 so far.
Regarding MGS - if it played more like Ninja Gaiden and not like a stealth game, there's actually a chance I'd buy it!
Stealth games just don't do it for me. With the very slight exception of Hitman many moons ago. Sounds good, my payday is next week (aarrgghh!!!) so im currently munching sherbert dip and flying saucers. Thanks for saving me the trouble of typing out the same sentiments, TT. Well, it's not labeled "Tactical Espionage Action" anymore but "Lightning Bolt Action", so it looks like Rising will be something like Ninja Gaiden, especially when you have Raiden as a main protagonist and judging on his performance in MGS4 with all his acrobatic ninja moves it looks like he's more or less right. At least it looks like that from the indications. The wii already has MGS (technically)
Twin Snakes for the GC well worth buying a GC pad and memory card for. If you can get a copy. 360 fanboys can sook ma bitter lemon.
MGS4 will be vastly superior to this in every way.
this is a disgrace to the MGS name. wait and see. it'll be the worst spin-off since 'sonic spinball'.
still, cant blame your for grabbing at the available straws. but it aint a real MGS. hence why its easily being ported to all platforms except wii probably...
and who was slagging off space raiders. i think thats what was mean, haha space invaders.
classic maize snack. pickled onion and beef flavours! SVD,
Really simple question, hopefully you can give me a really simple answer...
You obviously have some long lingering hatred towards anything to do with microsoft/xbox etc, fine I get that, I dont exactly love them myself, but why do you spend so much of your time on this website going into forums and posting comment after comment about how much you hate them? omg svd_grasshopper for the love of god go out and get laid u virgin lol have u got nothing better to do than go on this and shunt every 360 game. get a life u sado lol I was slagging them off. What the f**k are you going to do about it? i've got a bottle of Jack D just kicking about for an occasion just like this, anyone got a bag of ice? By vastly superior do you mean a complete overindulgent piss take of a game.
I'm not sure how many people actually enjoy having to wait 10 mins between every level as it installs the next bit of the game and 2 hour long melodramatic cut scenes.
Personally i'd rather have a 5 minute optional install rather than the nonsense in MGS4.
IMO the best MetalGear Solid is the GC remake. man, i haven't seen those in ages. beef flavour were superb! Snake Eater for me then followed by Twin Snakes then Guns of the Patriots. Sons of Liberty is defo in last place.
As for this i'm interested to see if they can move MGS in a different direction. if it is a Ninja Gaiden style game it may well be good. time will tell. 10 minutes installs? 2 hours long melodramatic cut scenes? Next thing you are going to tell is that you actually played MGS4. :roll: wtf is Project Natal i no its like the wii and all that lame crap sit there jackin off while dancing but game wise if its the new 360 (if it is) will the games still be the same for the 360 and ps3? so will every game be exclusive to the ps3? like say mgs5 comes out on both and u have ps3 and Project Natal how could that work one has a control (as god made games) and one u play with ur self? or is Project Natal a add on to a newer 360? the 360 is dead anyway everybody knows this just sell it and come to the trey brotherhood TREY4LIFE :wink: Huh? Well, Kojima said that he's 'only' a producer of Rising together with some other guy, that he's not directing it and that the game he's working on is the Peace Walker for PSP so yeah, Rising will be probably quite different from "proper" MGS games, hopefully in a good way. Ninja Gaiden style game with Raiden could be a lot of fun. Wrong thread. The rosetta stone required to decode that shit! god knows? i can't even finish reading it, my brain starts to shut down about half way through. :lol: Oh Lordy! The TREY brotherhood? That guy is either having a giant laugh or so far off his rocker that it's still funny one way or the other. Making web videos expounding on how he became a "commander" of his "soldiers". Please. Unless you've served in an organised, disciplined and trained military force of some sort you aren't a "soldier" and have no claim to that title. »
guess you don't understand the concept of hyperbole then!
Still. mid game installs cut scenes that go one for bloody ever don't make a good game in my opinion.
I know he was trying to tie up all the lose ends in the series, but seriously.
makes you wonder if Peacemaker will come on 2 umds just to fit in all the cinematics.
Hopefully rising will be a refreshing change for the series. »»
Come on, UMD's are sooooo spring/summer 2009. I painted the underneath of a fox the other day. I had to use a brush on the end of a very long stick because it was quite a high fox. God you people are retarded. Can't you just play games without arguing over them every day of your shit little lives. Good lord i forgot about all this new fangled downloading the kids are doing on thier confounded PSP GO! contraptions.
So if MGS4 was too big for blu ray, (apparently) whats the odds on Peacemaker taking out a healthy chunk of the go!'s internal memory I really need to see more of the game before I even say anything, but if it's anything like the other MGS games then I'm sure it'll do well. 2010 will be the year of the UMD thats rich coming from the guy who posted the usual pish in the Forza 3 thread
»»
If it comes out on 2 UMDs it'll be because of sound like with MGS4 and not because of cinematics as they are always ingame :P
Those 'jokes' about exaggerating the installs/cutscenes are old and just boring. You see it's quite annoying and really boring to read the same old joke year after MGS4, especially when the joke is based on wrong facts. It's not the cutscenes but the sound. The sound. At least get that one right if you want to joke about MGS4. have a feeling this will turn out the same as dirge of cerberus did for the final fantasy series.
if any1 remembers tht you know it wasnt pretty. hope thats not the case but thats what it looks like it heading towards. MGS4 got 94/100 on metacritic over 81 reviews.
that shows its up there with the best of them. if this raiden spin-off beats that, i'll eat my hat.
over-indulgent. yes so what. you can skip all the scenes you dont want to see. i found some of them pathetic. i found some of them really engaging. ultimately i didnt care for the story, didnt stop it from being an amazing experience.
to disregard it, especially if your backing this spin-off shows how bitter you are.
the 360 gets a "metal gear solid" game. the 360 rep starts trash talking and the fanboys cant take the fact its not a traditional MGS game. take it for what it is, it may be great, but i doubt it will as immersive as the stealth games.
"i prefer action" good for you, you'll lap this up.
MGS4 was like GTA4, just exploring the game world in itself was an extremely satifying experience.
this seems like it will be more linear. i still hope it will be good (you forget the ps3 is also getting it - no sony rep trash talking there) but it will be more of a game than an experience. Well, if it was like this, then grasshopper is going to be right :lol: Because, well, Dirge of Cerberus didn't get so great reviews, right? Though I still liked that game. but your disregarding this game before we even have any concrete facts on the game.
it may well be a pile of pish or it could be a great companion to the Snake series. how's about you wait until we get some more info before you start labeling it as shite. it was a functional game no doubt and totally playable but so is terminator salvation which i must admit I didnt feel like slitting my wrists while playing . it certainly didnt no matter how you look at it add anything to the series though. Gosh I'm late to this conversation
Carry on....
seriously though...lightning bolt action....must have lost something in the translation. i got the ice and a couple of rocks glasses but ive also got a single cask bottle of jd care for some? hahhahahhahaha
i like tht phrase :lol: »bring it on :D my initial reaction was that it will be shite. i did then say i hope it will be decent. and keyword - companion. it could compliment the MGS series nicely, but i think it will play differently - and different from an already stellar formula (for me) will probably mean shite.
i think the problem was labelling it "MGS" when its more of a spin-off. it is, a tad, cashing in on the name.
a bit like the new subaru "impreza".
you cant go from a saloon to a small hot hatch and label it the same. it got universally slammed for not being a patch on the original saloons... now if they gave it a new name (because its a TOTALLY different car and chassis), noone would've compare it to an already highly esteemed car. they didnt feel confident enough to start a new name. choose to milk the brand and it drives like a dog compared. shot themselves in the foot. very silly.
on its own it would have stood a much better chance.
and i feel that was a very suitable analogy, so dont start :o »
This is beginning to sound more and more like a party. Woo Hoo! i'll agree with that. MGS usually means a stealth game and if this is radically different i.e. a balls out action game then it isn't MGS. they could just drop the Solid part of the name and revert back to Metal Gear then i think that would be acceptable. mind you will there even be a Metal Gear mech in the game? obviously there has to be some sort of connection with the series and i don't think having just Raiden does that. What he said. :roll:
pathetic. anything in particular you agree/disagree about this? or are you just a lemming?!
bear in mind not a single install spans 10mins, the inital one is 8mins and the rest are 2-3min in between chapters. Isn't there a bus you should be under? see. thats how you quote, then add your little tuppence.
wasnt so hard, was it now? please please would you **** off svd_grasshopper(sucks varied dick) and go comment on a ps3 forum cause you only comment on 360 forum!! obsession or what haha
p.s your mother phoned and told me to tell you to get off your computer and lose your virginity the only comments ive seen you make is ones against other peoples comments. which makes you the biggest loser on here. once again im not on my computer, im at work, generating cash and laughing at idiots like you.
where are you? sitting in your dungeon bedroom pulling your wee wire?! ****in tramp! »
I know for a fact that if people hated me as much as the people around here hate you and your pitiful whining then I'd go to another site and start over.
Do people hate you as much in real life as they do on this site?
You've managed to turn every thread you're on into a war of words. You pick at everyone's comments like a frickin' vulture, you're sick man. Seriously, go and get yourself some help. so they get a metal gear game and think the rest are going to 360, ill be getting mgs rising for 360 but will mgs 5 be on the 360 or any games with solid snake in? thats if a 5 is made »»
ha!!!
what a ****ing grade A loser.
people "hate" me on this site. they dont know me, so they cant hate me. they may not like what i post - but guess what - i dont give a ****!!! im not on here to make friends you loser. imagine caring what a bunch of unknown people think of you. that is sad.
have you given up on what real people think of you and resorted to trying to endear yourself to a bunch of usernames. dont they judge you as much?!
LA-HOO, SAE-HUUR! whats ur job? being an utter **** and stopping people from ahving proper forum discussions.
yes i only joined this cause i was geting annoyed with your ****ing comments on every ****ing forum, so ur the ****ing loser going on every page starting arguements, how does it feel to be the most hated person on this website?
and im 18 and a studentand i have a job thankyou very much lol who wants to start a petition to get him booted off this website? haha, see above.
you call it hate. i call it notoriety.
either way its a bit of throw-away fun as this place can get boring - im stopping NOONE from having proper discussions - just the little bitches like you that get flustered and comment on the comments.
ive made more legitimate comments than you ever have. people dont like what i say, be the bigger man and ignore it.
go away and get a hair cut and a wash! The quicker SVD and his kind are banned from this website the better, might actually be one of CVGs saving graces. Come on Mods, we don't want this site turning into Gamespot, do we?
Oh wait...:roll: I just thought i would do this post to address the pathetic fanboys of the PS3 camp. And i want to end this argument once and for all.
Before this was announced for the 360 many PS3 owners took pride in the fact that the metal gear solid franchise was exclusive to them. Along with this came the crazy assumption that it was impossible on the 360.
Lets get one thing straight the 360 HAS for a fact got a better GPU FACT FACT FACT. DRUM IT INTO YOUR THICK HEADS.
Secondly I hear many arguments stating that metal gear solid would be inferior on 360 due to the fact you would need 3-4 DVD's.
Now for you uneducated sonsofbirches that are clearly fanboys of sony, I understand why you feel the need to defend you're dorr stopper of a console. I would too, in fact I feel for you. I want to cradle your heads on my boozome...
Ok, back to the point. MGS for the ps3 has like 4-5 installs in game more or less, correct me if im wrong. These installs take 3-4 minutes and thats not including the first install. In that time your forced to watch MR solid snake light a smoke..even he is board stiff.
Have you ever wondered why these installs happen????????????????????????????????????????????
Let me tell you why....The bluray drive in the PS3 can only read at 1 speed...that speed is 1x. Becuase of this sections of the game cant be read from the bluray on the fly, so we are forced to endure these BULLS(*T installations. This means technically the BLURAY DRIVE IN THE PS3 IS A DISADVANTAGE! NOT A PLUS!.
My point is this...I would rather switch DVD's which only takes 15 secs MAX than wait for a bloody game to install + BETTER GRAPHICS YES PLEASE.
360 owners are doing you a favour with this franchise...You wait and see how many sales this game makes on release unlike MGS for PS3 which sales record is pathetic for a console seller title.
Anyway my name is rob, and i like carrots. Man this site has really got shite! At least it shows there's xbots out there just as mental and pathetic as SVD. Fanboy? perhaps. Is he correct though? Absolutely!
As for the Grasshopper clown. She is vermin. I honestly dont think I have read so much crap come out of one girls mouth. She is an insult to PS3 owners. lol omg i didnt know svd_grasshopper is a girl :o lmao well it explainns the bitchiness (no offense to any ladies) lol lol omg i didnt know svd_grasshopper is a girl :o lmao well it explainns the bitchiness (no offense to any ladies) lol lol omg i didnt know svd_grasshopper is a girl :o lmao well it explainns the bitchiness (no offense to any ladies) :shock: lol How come games like Killzone 2 don't intstall then if the Bluray is so slow? The guys a moron who believes everything he's told. Does the 360 have a better GPU; yes
Does the 360 have better load times re dual layer; yes
Does the 360 have good exclusives; yes though i find most of them tedious, gears of yawn...
Is it easier to program for? Yes
Does the 360 have a larger market share; yes
Is it cheaper; my god yes
balanced against;
Is my PS3 working: yes
Is my 2nd 360 working? No RROD
In conclusion, screw Microsoft, i've owned a ps1, ps2, psp and ps3 and never had a problem. Ive gone through 2 xboxes and have no interest in buying another one.
So until fanboys realise that the only good console is the one which works all the bloody time and doesnt require you to buy a replacement every bloody 5 months; make mine a phantom. Does the 360 have a better GPU; yes

I think we should ban everyone who has a negative attitude from the forums, and keep all future discussions one sided and agree with everything the games companies do after all they only have our best intrests at heart. :lol: devil may cry 4,grand theft auto,final fantasy,and now metal gear solid,it goes to show you that the tables are turning for xbox 360 and sony. 22 million xbox360s sold in the us compared to 8.5 ps3 sold in the us.over all 30 million 360s,20 million ps3.sony is doing better over seas,which i dont really care cause i live in the states compare it to the national football league the best american sport.out side of the us its nothing,my opinion why bother with sony here, keep out of here its from the far east.. ^^
Im not touching that..its waaaay to easy Voodoo ur an ass. How come killzone dont install????!!!!! What are you.... 5?
Killzone doesnt have any way near as much FMV as MGS. MGS FMV is a higher resolution and there is SH*& loads, IN FACT THERES more FMV than gameplay.
Go do some research you fool, before i make your screen go black.
All you fanboys have left is the argument that 360's keep breaking down, which is true....but so what. Microsoft raped sony in the ass by taking there exclusives.
Kinda like me entering your house while your asleep and pressing your mum. Get the picture.
My names rob and i like cabbage I thought the playing field was made level when the tekken series was announced on 360. It's the only exclusive series I miss after moving over to the xbox. Sony only seems focused on keeping the jap gamers happy. They stopped giving a toss about the western market this gen. /facepalm
like I said.. plenty of SVD type xbots about when you look. Yes, they have lost out on quite a few 3rd party exclusives. But they are having their first party devs pumping out a lot of new IP's. And a pretty decent amount that I would say appeal to the Western audience as well. They have Uncharted, Uncharted 2, Heavy Rain, Last Guardian, Killzone 2, etc.
I don't own a PS3, but those titles look pretty good to me. I wish that both MS and Nintendo would develop some more fresh in house IP's. /facepalm
sure sure, you obviously know what you are talking about... the fact that MGS4 cutscenes are ingame with the same resolution (just like in every other MGS game before) is just a lie, right? The fact that the cutscenes in MGS4 often go right into gameplay without any interruption is also just some kind of a lie, right?
/double facepalm Metal Gear without Solid Snake! Level playing field? Give me a break - lol! Metal Gear Solid 5 will probably be like Resident Evil 5 - an overhyped game running on an old engine & with a review score to match. »
SVD you talk utter pish.
What about the impreza P1? You just knew it was gonna happen. Leave SVD to wax lyrical for long enough and the bloody car analogies come out.
Funny thing is that i wasn't joking when i said i didn't enjoy MGS4 very much. I was only bitter that it wasn't as good as snake eater. I also said early on in the thread that my favourite MGS was the reake on the GAMECUBE. Which last time i checked was a nintendo console.
I know you've tried time and a gain to tar me with the fanboy brush but its incredibly hard to when i keep jumping from one camp to the next kicking over tables and whooping and hollering whenever a decent game comes out.
Go to the thread about Heavy rain or the last guardian and you'll see me saying what fantastic works being done on them.
Likewise i'll go and Say what an engaging game Alan Wake looks to be. or how ODST looks like it'll be an enjoyable romp.
Or go check the conduit thread and find that i'm pissed its being delayed as it reminds me of half life and i 'll always pick an intelligent story driven shooter over some lmilitary rubbish.
Turns out the only thing i'm a fanboy for is a decent game and some fine liquor.
I've got some Jim Bean if anyones interested. I presume that the whole "lightning bolt action" refers to the fact that Raidens' style of combat is more confrontational than Snakes? That doesn't however, mean that the game will be linear, shallow on story, or in fact, crap. In fact I'd say its doing the developers a disservice to suggest this before anything of the game has even been hinted at.
Prototype shows that action-packed games don't have to be linear, and as for story, surely any MGS fan would hope for a chunky back story to this character. Why should the story be lacking just because Raiden jumps around a lot instead of hiding behind boxes? The story is told in cut-scenes; something equally applicable to an action game as a stealth game.
Also, just because it doesn't follow the same character doesn't really make it a spin-off - afterall its still entitled Metal Gear Solid. I can't help but wonder what the PS3 fanboys would be saying if this was PS3 exclusive. I doubt they'd be writing it off so quickly.
Criticise the MS spokespeople for strutting around like the cat that got the cream, but don't lambast a game you've never even seen anything about. That's just daft! |
