well done that is the most blatantly ignorant fanboyish statement I've seen on gaf. and I am a metal gear fan but fans shouldn't ever just willingly accept something cos of a name on a box; that's being a sheep not a fan.
LOL, EB Games has the PS4 release listed at $89.95 AUD. That's the version Kojima says he wants people to play right?
Stop being so negative and wait for the actual game to come out before judging it.Ah, stop being so defensive about it. It could very well be the proportional equivalent.
most irresponsible statement on GAF.I hope this bombs in sales.
yeah i'm okay waiting it out. i waited mgs4 out like 3 years or so.
name on the box? Peace Walker is my favourite game in the series and GZ+TPP is following the same pattern, how can I not be excited for this? I haven't played a new MGS game since Peace Walker which is almost 4 years now and almost 6 years since a console MGS. I don't want to wait any longer and for me 40$ is absolutely nothing for a series that I adore and appreciate so much.
it took you 4 hours to complete the Tanker mission? wow you must suck a lot at the games..
So disappointing to hear this. As an MGS4 fan l was hoping for a lengthy game to enjoy
You didn't wait long enough, duck. You were still extremely disappointed after 3 years.
Jesus, man. Why so defensive? You'll play the game March 18 and get the most out of it, I'm sure. Do you really care that much if no one else does? No need to attack others for not feeling the need to spend their hard-earned money where they don't see fit.
most irresponsible statement on GAF.
It's an absolutely scary trend where developers might think it's acceptable to release a quarter of a game and charge $40 for it. We're already getting games with shorter campaigns and less value already so they can charge for DLC.
it's not a trend yet
I am not being defensive, but a lot of people here are misleading others and that creates confusion among the fans. I was "sent" to clear those confusions out.
sorry but after saying "how can a metal gear fan not buy this on day one? you're all hypocrites" I'm not taking you as a bastion of impartiality here.
It is a $20 download for PS360. The version overpriced significantly is the PS4/X1 retail edition.
Until Game Informer states if it was to completion I fill like that picture summarizes this thread pretty well.
What does "I played through the main game" usually mean if not "I beat it"?
when you quote someone, make sure you quote the actual statement with the same wording and placement of words in that statement
I wouldn't mind that actually
Chiming in to MGS thread to see this Batzi dude work as Konami PR is pretty amusing.
The official Konami PR guy who posts on NeoGAF can only dream of being this good.

Game "Informer"
I think they're using "informer" like Snow used "informer."
Awesome. Except conjecture = facts on the internet.

Not many people will understand this reference, but I found it funny.

Actually I kinda expect it to do well because most people won't be aware that it's just a prologue and then when Phantom Pain comes out the non hardcore metal gear gamers will not care because they already got a taste.
I wonder if there were no physical version of this game if there would be AS much drama as there is around the price.
people would probably still bitch about $30 for next gen but not as much
Might hurt PP sales if those people end up pissed though.
If it were bundled with Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, or it was $5-10 no one would have an issue.
No matter the quality of the game, this business model is already backfiring and while I'm looking forward to Ground Zeroes immensely, I really hope Kojima doesn't incorporate this game splitting method in future. At least not at such a high price.

weren't there some stats flying around awhile ago about how many people actually finish games? I bet they don't even notice
That's why they called it a "Prologue" yet people still expect it to be 15 hours.I've never once thought this would be a very long game, I'm not surprised.
It looks like a full separate game. So I'd say around the same length of MGS2 or MGS3 and not the length of their prologues. Prologue does not mean short. You guys have misconceptions regarding the term "prologue". A whole game can be a prologue to another game.
I feel like GZ will be significantly less content than the tanker.
You guys are delirious and lacking in reading comprehension. There is no way they meant that they actually played through the game to completion. Come on now.
