I wouldn't be surprised if his fate was a tragic one, as the Ninja always goes in the MGS series

Generous. That game almost turned me off PSP gaming. What a sluggish running, anal controlled title.monkeylite said:As for EDGE score, you guys forgot:

It was one of the lowest scores given I believe.Wollan said:Generous. That game almost turned me off PSP gaming. What a sluggish running, anal controlled title.
Yoboman said:Personally, I think she's far better character to start with than Meryl. She's kind of a blank slate.
Though a Meryl squad-based game could be particularly awesome
Meryl's got a short lease IMO. She's already 30'ish, she's only got a few games in her before a lot of people won't want to be playing her (call it sexist or not, it's true).SolidSnakex said:I think Meryl would fit better since she already has an edgy attitude that appeals to a lot of fans of the series. Sunny would be fine also though like I said before.
I really can't see Raiden taking over to be honst.

Well we need to know more of Sunny to be sure. They can start Sunny of at a young an age as possible, probably around 18 - 19, even if they did 3 games with her in the same time bracket as MGS (10 - 15 years, I guess) it'd work. I also never picked Meryl as an "I can kick the ass of everything, single-handedly" kinda character, despite her attitude. I think Sunny, knowing her mum (potential spoilers, even though just a theory, about Sunny's dad:SolidSnakex said:Well you've suggested Sunny and she's a girl also, so if they wouldn't want to play as Meryl then they wouldn't want to play as her either. And screw the sexist people, I think it'd be an interesting route for the series to take.
Meryl's connected to Snake which makes her appealing to people. People have been wanting her back since MGS.

industrian said:I would think/hope thatThat theory is a sound one though.Olga would have better taste in men. Besides, they didn't get on very well (to say the least) in MGS2 - but then again that had more to do with Ocelot "leaving her father to die" than anything else.

Bioshock ring a bell. And as anticipated as that game was, MGS4 dwarfs it.U K Narayan said:Did we really need a new thread for this? It seems we get five Metal Gear Solid 4 threads a day.
Agreed. These kinds of games don't need demo's. If you call yourself a fan then you know this game will be good for you. Read the previews folks, there's enough fapping for everyone!!!!Yoboman said:No you don't. You want it to be all new and fresh when you buy it
This is the "last" chapter under Kojimas supervision. There can be as much story as he wants there to be. You cannot cut corners here just because people complain about too many cutscenes. Imagine the very last FF game, would you want them to cut out story just because of people who want to see less of it?Visualante said:Like cut scenes? Hahahah.
Exactly.... QFTVaandaviii said:Yes
That's amazingly stupid of neogaf. Anything below 10 per day should be punished.
f@luS said:too bad it will be available soon and will be forgotten during the election in fall....like gow 2 last year
This is very true. It is also stupid for people to think the PS2 is not relevant anymore. It doesn't have to be in HD to be this amazing game.SolidSnakex said:The reason people forgot about GoW2 was because of the system it's on.
I'm not laughing at MGS4 for including cut scenes. I'm laughing at the people who are speculating on an Edge 10 when they've not played MGS4 or read an entire Edge article before. You can't get any more clean cut that the cover I'm looking at right now. "inside the biggest PS3 game of the year". I completely agree with that, although it leaves me a little winded by the thought of no TRICO this year.LiquidMetal14 said:This is the "last" chapter under Kojimas supervision.

Productions values transcend modern video games: A Hollywood grade surround sound and moving track score by Harry Gregson Williams. Electrifying cut scenes and a sense of closure "more suited to Return of the King than Halo 3".

MGS4 is, you feel a compromised game, with pervasive aliasing and nagging low-res textures,
Fucking epic confirmed. I'm giddy about the soundtrack more now!!!!brandonh83 said:It's right here folks, it's there in fine print. I'm reading it.
This title is far more anticipated than Bioshock. And while I agree with a good deal or you statement the second bold makes me question you a little. You have a PS3 right?Visualante said:I'm not laughing at MGS4 for including cut scenes.

I'm just bored of all this fapping, Edge 10, talk of dwarfing Bioshock, pigeonholing people into fans or haters and not least the hypocrisy over whether we care about scores or not.
The game is going to be a hit, irrespective of scores and awards. And everyone who buys a PS3 to play it will get a substantial amount of pleasure from playing it. That's our hobby right there. For me the hype on this game is comparable to fucking Audiosurf, that's how insignificant all that is.
But if someone disagrees. Well I'll see you in 500 pages or maybe when we have the LTTP thread.
Nobodies perfect. Look at Uncharted for instance. It is a powerhouse game with several little visuals compromises. It doesn't make the game less appealing. People will still be blown away.Visualante said:Here's the preceding sentence for balance.

Pervasive low-res textures is not the same as bad textures somewhere. But to people who, you know, care about the game, it won't matter too much. I regret what could have been with many games, but I learn to accept them for what they are and move on.brandonh83 said:I can't recall a single videogame I've played that didn't have bad textures somewhere.

ilanna said:You're right but wouldn't that be boring, predictable and cliche at this point? We know cyborgs arecursed[/spoiler in MGS world! They alwaysin every freakin' game (Black Ninja, Grey Fox, Olga). Previous cyborgs were only secondary characters though, also Kojima says that MGS4 would be Raiden's come back. That leads me to believe thatdie, maybe we're not told the entire truth about Raiden. Who knows? Well, except for those lucky 16 journalists .. Oh, how I envy them!!he won't die
Fucking eh, you right!! Seems like some people want to derail the hype by pointing out things that really don't take away from the experience. The next impending arguments will be the textured on tires. You know that truck in the Altair spoof? One tire in the beginning of that had lower res textures than the rest. Now the game will suck!SolidSnakex said:They chose framerate over textures from the sound of it. And i'll gladly take the 60fps framerate MGS4 runs at over some fancy textures.

Note the sarcasms.
There is so much tucked away in the game that some things won't be discovered until months or even years after your first play.

Call of Duty 4 looks marvelous, too.Yoboman said:I think the textures will only be a problem when you get right next to them. No worse than you had to "suffer" in Call of Duty 4
Indeed it did. Much like MGS4 they "sacrificed" higher res textures to get the other elements looking so good. The textures in both games have a large texture variety too, they just don't scale well close upU K Narayan said:Call of Duty 4 looks marvelous, too.
