Well, we all payed $49.99 for the MGS2 demo back then.

exactly.


Do you think that will encourage Konami (or even S-E with the inevitable FFXIII playable demo) to actually charge for a stand-alone demo? I can think of very few games with the pedigree to actually imply "most demos are to convince you to buy this game. Our demo is simply an opportunity to play early- because you know you'll buy the game anyway."

I know I'd gladly put down $5, maybe even $10 for a playable demo of MGS4 or FFXIII. Am I part of the problem?

 

[Aggelos]

also, would you guys be mad if Sony/Konami decided to charge for the MGS4 playable demo? Like $4.99, but with the length of the MGS2 demo?

With SCE having big loss on the PS3 production, I wouldn't be surprised if they attempt to cash in on every single opportunity (for instance selling the MGS4 demo, selling the FFXIII demo, etc )....

[Darkpen]

Then we paid $10 for the MGS3 demo D:

 

[Darkpen]

I took that one -- it's in my office. Why, you no like??

To be fair, I took like 50 pictures and let Ryan choose the one he wanted to use.

who are you? D: and what does your title mean

 

[Barakov]

who are you? D: and what does your title mean

John Riccardi I assume. He works at 8-4.

 

[robertsan21]

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

PLAYABLE!!!
I am not watching the trailer thats for sure!

AH DAMN who am I kidding, I will watch it 100 times over like the other trailers released

 

[GeneralIroh]

What were people complaining about with the FPS view?

listening to it now, and after reading that (and probably after reading this), I feel uncertain as to whether or not I want to see what comes out of TGS D:

:lol :lol :lol
I was about to ask who that cgi picture of that girl in your avatar was, but then I saw the label.

 

[fistfulofmetal]

I remember that day. I ran to Blockbuster because it was the only place that sold OPM.

It was a photoshop that someone posted in one of the FF7 threads a short while ago. I found it hilarious, and having not decided on an avatar yet, I thought I'd use that.

 

[SolidSnakex]

The complaints come from the gun modeling and the way the gun is positioned.

 

[GeneralIroh]

Oh hell no! They better keep the positioning the same. Ironsights FTW!

 

[SolidSnakex]

Oh hell no! They better keep the positioning the same. Ironsights FTW!

That's the reason it's like that from what I could understand in the podcast. Their military supervisor wants it to look like that. Ryan mentioned that one of the complaints was that Japanese designers will never get FP views, but if you go back to the original TGS trailer where they first showcased MGS4 on the PS3, that FP view was as good as any FP view.

 

[Jtrizzy]

I'll pay.

Yeah, the original trailer FPS viewpoint was great, seems like a missed opportunity to latch only to ironsight considering how you can aim in multiple 3rd person anyway so why bother limiting multiple first person views, especially now that you can move, which makes it look far too stiff in retrospect.

 

[Ether_Snake]

Shut up people with the "I'll pay". Unless we get ZOE3+demo

 

[novery]

I just hope it's a well edited trailer with different scenes(MGS3-style) from the game. Lately MGS4 trailers are nothing but one or two uninterrupted cut-scenes.

: )

 

[diunxx]

: )

just a few more days for the mgs4 pron

 

[Tiduz]

How awesome would it be if we get the same demo on PSN as the guys at TGS gets to play. that would be pure win and epic.

 

[BigBoss]

I'm not watching the trailer, thanks for telling us about the potential spoilers Ryan.

 

[ThePeter]

Subtitled Win.

How long did it take to get the MGS3 (TGS?) demo to OPM??

 

[MickeyKnox]

: )

PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE throw the MGS Theme into the trailer. PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE.

 

[Red Blaster]

Also thanks for turning up the volume on the podcast Ryan, much better now.

Seems like there was some kind of encoding problem.

If you want to thank somebody, thank my little bro. Not only does he troll me on messageboards, he spammed my cell email until we got the volume problem fixed.

aw snap

 

[Barakov]

Expect Omega Win next week people.

 

[fullmetalht]

This thread has allowed me to use this for the first time: *faps*

Playable demo...I say a bunch of us invade TGS and take out anyone who stands in our way of playing the demo. Snake style. Everybody remember your hunting knife and your body, which is a holding ground for an infinite amount of weapons.

Oh yeah, that trailer? I'll be watching it...over and over and over. XD

Here's to hoping for some great video of the demo being played.

 

[Holtz]

: )

OH SHI... Next week will be epic. Fuck the spoilers, i'll be watching the trailer over and over in glorious HD.

 

[fullmetalht]

I'll be watching that trailer til I decide to go to bed, at which point I will turn on my Wii, open the web browser and watch it 908453578405 more times.

Who said I was obsessed?

I expect wondrous things next week.

 

[tanod]

Put that MGS4 trailer on a disc and sell it. Billion PS3s sold in a day. I can't wait to see what you have in store for us.

 

[ThePeter]

The wait is weighty...

 

[rikichi]

PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE throw the MGS Theme into the trailer. PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE.

i agree! PLEASE!

 

[Darkpen]

....what to do with that spoilerific trailer

I want to watch it, but yet, at the same time, this is the internet we're talking about, and unless I get a job some time soon, I'm gonna be on it for a while longer.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

EDIT: F*ck that! I'm watching the trailer! I don't care about spoilers cause Kojima is smart when it comes to Spoilers

 

[Zenith]

: )

Ryan, please comment on the status of the theme music. Has the fact that it's been taken from some Russian composer affected it at all?

 

[SolidSnakex]

Kojima confirmed it'll be in. It was also in the MGS 20th Anniversary soundtrack. The problem with it is that it doesn't include the last section of the theme which is the part that really makes the theme and also the part that was suppose to be plagarized.

 

[Haunted]

*Clicks on thread expecting the usual borefest about voice acting.*


*I'm posting this from the airport*

:lol

I was about to ask who that cgi picture of that girl in your avatar was, but then I saw the label.

you're not the first one to fall for that.

? so the Theme has been copied from a russian composer?
never heard that before.

when is Tokyogameshow? 18th?

 

[Zenith]

Kojima confirmed it'll be in.

no, he said some vague stuff about being able to play your favourite tracks ingame. and it was the best bits of the theme that got removed from it, so I want to know if they're back in. the fact that Ryan dodges this question every thread doesn't bode well.

 

[SamuraiX-]

: )

Hey, Ryan. Could you possibly hint at all toward what kinds of themes or concepts will be presented in the trailer that you would have preferred us to see for the first time only when we actually get to play the game?

I'm having a really tough time deciding whether to watch the trailer or not because of this comment you made on your last podcast. :lol

Could you at least say if it isn't anything too major? I mean, how much would it take away from the overall game experience if I were to watch this trailer? Thanks in advance if you reply.

 

[tanod]

Ryan,

After hearing how Square is going to have a closed off theater AGAIN this year, I have to say that I am REALLY REALLY thankful that the Kojima Productions studio isn't a stuffy piece of crap when it comes to treating its fans right. I'm really glad you're there to help with that. Kudos!

 

[blindrocket]

OMG, I hope we get a playable demo on the Playstation Store next week.
*in my dreams* He said it won't be in English.

And I had no issue with the placement of the gun in FPS view, it was just the placeholder texture look of it that bothered me. For me personally I would rather have realism for the gun placement.

 

[Ether_Snake]

aw snap

The gameplay-only trailer of MGS3 (the one I posted before in another MGS thread and called it the greatest MGS trailer ever) was yes, the greatest MGS trailer ever (even if it was a bit misleading in some way, it was PERFECT).

If Ryan's ": )" is an indication; no I will not be able to avoid the TGS trailer!!! Chances are what Ryan didn't want us to see is the new locations and maybe new enemies, that's my guess.

I actually thought E3 2000 MGS3 trailer was the greatest. It was the biggest eye opener and probably brought a lot of attention to the PS2 and MGS series itself.

E3 2000? See my above edit, it's the trailer I meant. 15 mins of perfect presentation.

 

[Bebpo]

God, next week can't come soon enough. Best trailer in the last 3 years SO SOON!

 

[blindrocket]

I understand needing to be a little skimpy on the info this close to release but there for a bit I was wondering what podcast this was. I heard Halo, Halo Wars, Gears of War, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Call of Duty 4, and Bioshock all mentioned.
I'd rather know what Kojima is having for lunch that day.
At least the crew is playing a cool game when they have time (Bioshock).

 

[brandonh83]

Ahhhh I'm not skipping this trailer, WHO CARES WHAT RYAN PAYTON THINKS ISN'T A GREAT IDEA TO SEE BEFORE SEEING IT IN THE GAME, I need my fix like a crack addict.

 

[Filasifer]

Thanks Ryan's little brother!

I expect wondrous things next week.

Oh shoot can't believe i missed this...

You're welcome : )
