I don't think the saves will be retro-compatible.

I'm not expecting that at all. The missions will probably have been tweaked/modified. What I meant is that if we could get bonus by having a demo save file. For example in Lunar PSP you get a bonus weapon if you have a demo save. Since there will be a huge amount of equipments, shirts and whatnot it would be nice to get some bonus from that demo file.

We should really tally up a list of PSN names (and timezones).
I'm down for co-op missions on weekday nights.
I have a 20gig launch PS3 which is the only system that can't use ad-hoc party :|
I'm going to try to get xlink-kai working for Peace Walker COOPS but that would mean the other people need to use it too and I'm guessing you guys will all be playing through ad-hoc party so it will be a party I am not attending me thinks.

Now you mention it, I'd love to get some extras in Peace Walker for having save files from other MGS titles. Just like in MPO you could get Venus and Teliko as playable characters if you had MGA and MGA2 save files on the memory stick. (And you could get Major Zero if you had a MGSDGN save file as well) So getting an extra for having a completed save file from the Demo is not a bad idea...

I thought only certain PSP's could as well?
On a side note how do i check what type my PSP is? 1000? 2000? etc
It's a Crisis Core Edition, I'm in Aus if that matters. Thanks!

How about digital downloads? Do they count as installed games? Or do I have to install it anyway?
Bebpo said:
I have xlink-kai too but I haven't used it in ages. I'm sure we can work something out.
I was using it for Monster Hunter but it was confusing to use. I hope it works with Win 7.
I *think* you can chat on X-link Kai too.
That's really lame that 20gig doesn't support Ad-hoc party though.

Boooo
I'm using a PSP Go so UMDs are out of the question anyway...
Are we sure the story missions are 1p only? Because in the preview by the famitsu guys one of them said most of the missions could be played in multiplayer. Maybe there are a few story missions (1p) and a lot of extra ops missions (multi) or he is lying/confused.

In the link Spiegel posted it's clear the codec system won't be a problem since it's in real time (like in the demo) now. Would be nice but I guess it wouldn't make much sense to have multi Snakes during the main plot :lol .

Beware of spoilers guys, the game got leaked and apparently even if all the text in-game is in japanese, the animated cutscenes have english text.

Made an agreement with another GAF member, refused to honor it because he was broke, but then had no problem continuing to buy video games.

I would like to know as well, I've started Portable Ops but nowhere near finished due to lack of time
And form playing the demo of Peace Walker it absolutely controls better.
Did most of you guys/gals use shooter mode in demo or the other mode? I found myself using shooting the entire time.

I used the portable ops style. The one where you use the dpad to aim.

MPO had infraestructure, yes, but it was only for multiplayer matches, loading only one map at the time.
bernardobri said:
I don't think it really matters. If they wanted to implement infrastructure, they clearly could have. Maybe they felt that maintaining servers and stuff would be counterproductive if the game didn't take off big time outside of Japan. Maybe there'll be an Infrastructure patch later. Maybe they'll release a Substance re-release in future with Infrastructur. Or maybe they just don't care because most MGS fans probably already have a PS3. Who knows.

duckroll said:
Well, I think it'd be a frikkin' mess considering the sensational online infrastructure they implemented for MGO... So I guess they went the easy way.
Also, duckroll, is it fine to post here mild spoilers with the respective tags? Seems like info is spreading out, mostly about the ending song and other stuff...
bernardobri said:
I dunno, there was nothing wrong with the online for MGO, other than it uses a Konami account and a separate Friend List, and it's own store instead of the PSN store. That actually supports the argument that it would be even MORE suited towards PSP, since you have no Friend Lists on PSP anyway, so having to login to a Konami Account to manage an in-game list of friends and lobbies makes the most sense. They just didn't want to do it.

I hope to god this plays better than the other portable metal gears. I didn't dig the demo, but i hope the full version clicks with me. it looks hot. MGS3 is my favorite MGS, so I really, really WANT to like this. If i will or not is yet to be decided.
I would rather have a PS2/PSN version or enable Dual Shock 3 connectivity ala Resistance Retribution or via PSP Go for 'murican gamers who are used to two sticks.

I guess that the main audience for PW this time is Japan, therefore local play is more plausible than with the western market.
Alright, got it, although considering your enthusiam with the game, that would be one week ban at most :lol

Yes. The only thing is, I see Peace Walker listed as coming on a bunch of Asian PSN sites (HK, Malaysia, Thailand, etc) but not the Singapore site. Either it's a typo, or for some reason it's not going to be on the Singapore store. I guess I'll find out later today when they update.
So from the stream of the prologue, here are the changes from the demo to the retail game (no spoilers):
- All comic cutscenes how have comic bubbles in English, this means the majority of the cutscenes are effectively English subbed.
- When you are up against a wall and use L and R to tag enemies, the tag now stays on the enemy for a few seconds instead of requiring you to hold R.
- There demo mission for Opening/Tutorial is VERY incomplete. The full game has extra cutscenes and a new area at the end of it.
- Comic cutscenes have QTE events too. It doesn't look like you can actually fail them, but you con't progress until you get it right.

Crap, I didn't know you couldn't use Ad-hoc with a 20gig system. I would have to buy a new ps3, and a psp for this :/
Shit, MGS co-op is the best idea yet, I wanted to eat doritos and bag a damn t-rex

Regarding Ad-hoc on 20gigs, I don't understand why Sony doesn't just release an Adhoc Adapter for the PS3. They could easily release a simple 50 buck wifi dongle which acts exclusively as an Adhoc Adapter. This will also allow people who are using wireless connections on their PS3 to use Adhoc Party at the same time. Maybe if enough people send feedback to Sony regarding this request, they'll do something about it!

You cant use wireless internet and Ad-Hoc at the same time?
Meaning i would need to wire a connection in if I want to use Ad-Hoc ?
Sorry never used Ad-Hoc before :/
