£29.99 for a demo?

That is the tradition.

 

[Pie and Beans]

Think of GZ as MGSV's tanker mission.

Just you're not getting a Zone of Enders with it to justify the price

 

[RoboPlato]

Hopefully it has enough content to justify the price tag and we get a physical PS4 release. I'm looking forward to trying this and seeing if the new changes work. I'm a bit more apprehensive than I was originally after some of the gameplay footage but I can't say no to more MGS. It would be cool if they take some feedback from GZ and put it into PP.

 

[Ryu751]

One mission is half the price of a game no thank you.

 

[infinityBCRT]

Is it me or is that expensive as fuck?

I was under the impression that the scope of Ground Zeroes is something like Peace Walker-- maybe a little light on story but has a ton of replayability due to the way it breaks out missions and how you have to build up your team and base. Whereas Phantom Pain is going to be MGS1/2/3 esque with a much heavier focus on story.

So no, I don't think its expensive if its going to be up to the level of Peace Walker.

 

[zainetor]

Sort of like Dead Rising 2: Case Zero. Neat.

Case 0 was 5 euros.

 

[dancrane212]

This is an ealier release than I had expected, may just grab the PS3 boxed copy for Ground Zeroes and wait for MGS5 to release to grab it and a PS4.

 

[V_Ben]

There's something really gross about pricing the next gen version at £10 more, just because they can. They know people will buy it, so they do it anyway. Eew.

 

[Graphics Horse]

More than I thought it would be, and later.

But it should have a decent amount of bonus missions and repayability. Any word on multi player?

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Should be £5 more at tops. Also, boxed PS4/Xbone version too please, or at least have a decently priced upgrade system in place.

 

[Asd202]

This is far too much for a glorified demo...

Anyway MGS5 fall of 2014?

 

[Apocryphon]

I'm guessing it'll provide about 6 - 8 hours of gameplay so I'll take the PS4 version. $30 seems a tad steep but y'know... next gen...

Still, from what we've seen this looks amazing. If it has the same kind of replay value that the Tanker mission did then I'll be one happy boy!

 

[Empty]

i really hope they can justify that price. weird.

 

[Tohsaka]

Can't wait, that's sooner than I expected. Hopefully we'll get a retail PS4 version.

 

[Foffy]

I have a feeling, based on the price, this will be a super short game. Maybe a few hours, at best.

 

[Zaki2407]

No retail version for PS4? That just......meh.

 

[Darkwaknight]

Tasty Next Gen Price Hike...(Bums on Seats I Guess).

So does this mean Next Gen will ONLY get a Digital Version and no Retail or Digital is same price as Retail (For than Next Genyness!!)?

 

[Hitokiri03]

What

Holy shit £29.99 for A DEMO?

No way!

 

[Blablurn]

Can't wait!

 

[Goldrusher]

The pricing sucks.

 

[UnblessedSoul]

I thought they were releasing both of them in 1 disc?, not buying at this price

 

[Feindflug]

Umm...10e more for the digital next gen versions and no retail version at all? wow.

 

[Marvel]

Oh god yes.

 

[CosmicGroinPull]

Via VG247

Surprise buttsecks!!



Images look way to clean for current gen. THey're not, right?

 

[Mr. RHC]

This...is an interesting retail model.. ehehehe

 

[Salz01]

Not really sure why they just don't wait and release the whole thing at once. Plus it all sounds confusing on what this actually is. Just get me the full game.

 

[toastyToast]

This ain't Gran Turismo Kojima

 

[Chamber]

Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes will launch Spring 2014 on PS3 and Xbox 360 as a boxed release at £29.99, while digital versions will cost £19.99., while PS4 and Xbox One digital versions come in at £29.99.

Digital only on next gen so it's not like you can just wait for the price drop. This is lame.

 

[Prince Vultan]

Hope it comes with a free Zone of Enders 2 sequel.

 

[Revven]

Probably getting it for PS3, myself.

 

[Skeff]

Dat £10 next gen tax.

First post nails it....

 

[NoctisVsStar]

I guess no ps4 bundle with ground zeroes damn. More likely with the phantom pain

 

[Marvel]

Oh crap I misread... there's no PS4 retail version? fuck.

 

[Zemm]

£29..99 is only £5 less than I paid for GTA5 and Last of Us this year in comparison.

 

[The Omega Man]

Glorified demo? I hope not, and they are charging me 10$ more for 30 frames per second more.

Edit: Digital only for PS4/XBONE, Kojima game? brace yourselves for a 200GB game.

 

[Hellraider]

Think of GZ as MGSV's tanker mission.

Let's just hope it's not two hours long like the tanker with that price.

 

[BruiserBear]

I want a boxed PS4 copy.

 

[Bluforce]

Will buy the future Ground Zeroes+The Phantom Pain on PS4, boxed.

 

[MikeXXIeaf]

Hopefully it's not just a single mission demo. That coupled with the actual game releasing in 2015 makes this very disappointing.

 

[AuthenticM]

People seem to be forgetting, but I remember Kojima saying that Ground Zeroes has tons of replay value.

 

[____]

With the replay value found in most MGS games, imokaywiththis.jpg.

 

[Ricky_R]

So the prologue will be sold separately after all... What a sad way to cash in.

I will get it though, so fuck me for whining.

 

[Steverulez]

Need to know how long it is before I decide on whether it's value for money but I'll probably get it. Not read the full article yet but will get boxed on XBO if there is one

 

[RaikuHebi]

If its length (and performance compared to PS3 version) warrants the price then that'll be the day I get a PS4.

Oh crap I misread... there's no PS4 retail version? fuck.

Perhaps it'll be included with the main game.

 

[Zalman]

No physical release for PS4 kind of sucks.

 

[DieH@rd]

I will get this for PS4. With various side missions, im sure there will be a lot content in there.

 

[Hydrargyrus]

Wait wait wait

So, but what I've read, this is not the entire game. This is not MGS5, it's only a part of it, isn't it?

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Huh, I wonder how many missions are in GZ. I mean, half the price of a normal game is a bit much for a five hour demo.

 

[boinx]

Physical PS4 copy here i come.

 

[bud]

that's quite expensive for what kojima has described as a "tutorial."

seppuku, kojima. please.
