It seems that Konami didn’t use the mighty $ to buy better reviews like Capcom.

SWBetty. Lmao.

EDIT: lol @ not having faith in Hideo Kojima. When has MGS game ever been bad?

MGS2 is only bad compared to how fucking ICONIC MGS1 is. I mean come on. The MGS series is basically flawless compared to other 10+ year old titles.

?

It was a joke you know.

What’s nuts to me is that we still haven’t seen the other melee weapons and probably won’t until a week before the game comes out. If the game is too “difficult” for these scrubs I pray there is a Bayonetta easy mode.

MGS4 was disappointing.

Not the gameplay, just the 30 minute cutscenes in between reall solid gameplay.

After the second time through you kinda squirm around in your chair ready to get into the action, its like a really good section and then a really long cutscene. But thats nothing new. Your codec would ring literally every 5 minutes in MGS2. I ignored it after a while.

Which reminds me…they should let you mute the codec. The same way you could turn your phone on vibrate in GTA4. That would be awesome.

I think the whole Drebin system made the game easy mode. It also doesn’t help that there was tons of mk2 ammo lying around in max difficulty. Game was solid but I guess MGS3 is hard to top.

Multiplayer was a disaster, we talked about this numerous times but glitchers literally hacked Konami servers and succeeded in taking them down a few times.

I want to send Platinum a digital fan letter with pictures of all of their SRK fans and the Platinum games that they own along with messages from each one of us. I think that would be a really neat way of showing them how much we appreciate what they do.

JP might still be lurking here. He posted a few times in the Anarchy Reigns thread.

No, the gameplay was lacking too. There wasn’t much to each area and I don’t think the game challenged MGS4 Snake’s controls/abilities which I’m not surprised they didn’t do on their first try. PW does a better job of this. And the bosses sucked outside of Rex vs Ray and Snake vs Ocelot.

Also fucking Europe escort stage.

Peace walker has the severe flaw of allowing you to hold up soldiers indefinitely. They would never turn around no matter how much time passed. I have no idea if this was fixed in the console port but that was a major gripe of mine. I agree with MGS4 Snake being OP, no need to nerf him but make the game push his abilities to the limits.

Well it’s supposed to be an easier game so I wouldn’t really call that a flaw.

Wait it is?

I know the portable missions are short to make it easy to play on the go but, it hurts the stealth when 3 guys have their hands up in the same area and you are no where to be seen. The bosses were okay but the stealth was even easier than mgs4 and imho that is a problem.

Skip to 10:45, that is all.

That’s different: Capcom hated Clover. They probably paid IGN to give it a crappy score. “These guys have some fucking nerve. Making great games and putting OUR logo on the box.”

I’m hella confused at this point…

Edit: Watched it again, just damn people sleeping on ground zero.

That’s how I took it. I mean you couldn’t even crawl or slink along walls in Peace Walker. I took all the dumbing down as a part of making it more of a quick fire game.

Well I guess we don’t have a thread to put this video in. It looks compelling. Either it’ll be a smart Next Gen game or devolve into some kind of shooter.

EDIT: I thought it was Metal Gear but I didn’t get the missing hand stuff.

Neogaf thread is breaking this shit down. All I can say is my body is ready!

Holy batman those neogaf guys are fast. So this is Ground Zero?

I want to say no but who knows. I’m curious if the V stands for 5, Vita, or both? Kojima mindfucking us once again.
