That would be a smart thing to do. Get on it, Capcom!But I want to give you my money again! Do you not want my money? Let me pre-order it on steam or something!

Its still not late to give Snake a high-res MGS1 face available in MGS4. That may even things...
I'm one of the people who don't think it's a huge deal but to be fair, didn't it cross your minds before the reveal that people would react exactly like this?
I mean, the MGS1 skin/mission was pretty badly received, while Cyborg Raiden x Snatchers looks actually cool, if superfluous.
I think it's because, when you look at sales, Metal Gear fans are mostly on PlayStation. Even when XBox got Substance, PS2 for it later with more content. Just don't be shocked when people want to get this on PS consoles and aren't getting all the content and complain. The whole reveal has been a little bit grating to people in how it's been handled in some cases - from Moby Dick Studios (what happened to that thing?), to Sutherland/Hayter Switcheroo, to the complete misunderstanding of the games being split, but not split, but split, to the gameplay that is shown, to the sheer confusion over the product.
I'm more offended at two sets of different exclusive content, if I'm honest. Make the content available to all.
The MGS4 Young Snake octocamo face on the PSone MGS1 Snake model?
... YES!! And have that mo-capped to Kiefer Sutherland too!!
This is totally different, because there is no way Link could appear on the PS2 or Xbox.Kojima just shot himself in the foot, et cetera...
I really like platform-specific content like this, and I'd like to see it more often. Soul Calibur 2 is my favorite example.
Exactly. I don't get the low poly shit. It's not nostalgic, its just hideously jarring. His face was so awesome in MGS4. Time was put into that face! I need it!
Unless you're making fun of my explanation... Then LA LI LU LE LO to you too!

This is way better than the stupid pixel Snake.

ToraShiro, are you avoiding answering my question about the sales of GZ determining the release time-frame of TPP on purpose?
Why should sales effect anything? you thinking just because GZ sold well they will rush and get MGSV out the gate?
I think he means the opposite. If GZ doesn't sell well, they'll rush MGSV out the gate.
Can you say anything regarding the fate of The Phantom Pain releasing in 2014 if Ground Zeroes sells like hotcakes?
Is that still true?
Whoa.
Whoa, hold on now.
IF we were running around Ground Zeroes as MSX Snake?!
Now that would be the biggest fanservice. Hell, watch the Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake "remakes" just be challenge map-type missions with MSX assets rebuilt a la Minecraft but in the new HD.
Why should sales effect anything? you thinking just because GZ sold well they will rush and get MGSV out the gate sooner? the game will be released once it's done. You really don't need Konami to say anything about this, just use common sense.
What I hope doesn't happen is region specific exclusives. MGR VR missions were exclusive to PS3 (all regions)but also came to 360 (you had to buy it)but only in Europe.

Comments on this video are hilarious.

That's just their way of getting people to buy it. Kojima is quite steeped in the art of hostage negotiation.
I personally wanted to play as Raiden in MGS since MGS2. This is throwing salt in the wounds that was MGS4.people are actually going nuts over this? console exclusive missions tend to be meh anyways. but i'll play it.

What the fuck, why does Xbox get a cool mission and PS is stuck with shit? Also anyone else find it odd that Xbox gets MGR Raiden when the PS3 version of MGR sold like 5 times as much as the 360 version?
PlayStation versions will probably still sell better though.
Fuck me.
Best version confirmed.
Wouldn't it be the other way around? If GZ bombs, they'd wait TPP sooner rather than later to make up the difference. Conversely, if GZ is a huge success, then they can safely push off TPP into their next fiscal year. So by NOT buying it, you'd help push them into a sooner rather than later release.
Personally, I find it really hard to believe TPP would ever launch later than holiday 2014. It doesn't make sense for anyone involved unless there are some serious, pressing problems with the game.
Raiden is an Xbox character...
people forget MGS2 aka Raiden debut was the first ever MGS game on Xbox
MGR was also debut at E3 MS conference
now this...
I thought it was some major thing the way people were reacting but meh. Not sure why Kojima is so obsessed with relentlessly pushing Raiden, he was useful in MGS2 but it should have ended there.
It's exclusive content. We all lose.We lost.
FUCK!
Absolutely it crosses my mind. It crosses my mind every time. I'm the first guy to hear it and the last one held responsible for reporting it. It's my job. I was just having a bit of fun with that last one. Don't read to deeply into it.
And yeah, we assume that most people aren't buggered too much by it one way or the other. And it's all up to KojiPro to decide what content goes into their games, that's their job.
Overall, people on GAF were pretty miffed at the PS reveal because Kojima got on the hype train and rode it pretty hard, and in comparison to what it "could have been" it was kind of a letdown. But it ran pretty well on other platforms so I can pretty confidently say response was "mixed". At the end of the day, when I have to assemble all the data about the response to Raiden I imagine it will be "mixed" as well.
We've since informed Kojima that if he would kindly knock the hype down 60% we'd all have fewer gray hairs.
Kojima is trying to make it easy for me to skip MGS5 huh?
for the PS version or Im staying out.
