Aha, of course Milkman would give it a B if it's true.

:lol I absolutely LOVED the really long cutscenes in MGS2+3. If that's the only complaint they could possibly have... holy shit this game is gonna be incredible.

NG2 getting gotm over MGS4 is impossible, and it coming from teamxbox is me calling fake.

tfur · May 23, 2008

Wait... does "gotm" mean "game of the month"?

Doesn't NG2 and MGS4 come out in the same month?

This info cannot be legit...

fistfulofmetal · May 23, 2008

I wonder who has the 1up review.

No Means Nomad · May 23, 2008

You guys haven't played the game or even so much as read the review before you start screaming bias. Smack a hot dog between those buns because you're all a bunch of stale predictable defenders of the crown.

Don't they just pick one of the reviewers that did the magazine review to do it? Probably Milkman then.

They didn't even let the only PS3 fan on the staff to review the game :lol .

Shane? He couldn't review it since he took part journalist event where they gave input on a pre-release version of the game.

It's always the first reviewer from the three EGM scores. Assuming the order listed above is the same as it appears in the magazine, then Jeremy will be doing the 1up review.

BlazingDarkness · May 23, 2008

i'd rather have lengthy MGS cutscenes than the shite i sat through in NGSigma, but whadda i know

Main reviewer with the most space always comes first, and its the one that gets posted on 1up.com. So if they're listed in order then it'll be Jeremy Parish's.

Edit: Crap, beaten.

I played MGO, and that's enough to know that gameplay by itself is AAA material. Anyway, the review is fake.

ScrabbleBanshee · May 23, 2008

So, people are nitpicking on the graphics in this game ... you guys seriously think GTA4 looks better? Seriously? Really?

Okay, I'm out before somebody calls me a bigot...

tha_con · May 23, 2008

So I hear the game has a 4.6GB install? I've only heard, just fishing for facts

Not bad considering it's a 50 fucking GB game.

From what i've heard, It is.

Metroidvania · May 23, 2008

For someone who doesn't know much about EGM staff, is Milkman anti-PS3, or just anti-MGS?

Honestly, I'm buying both games day 1, but I can't see II beating out 4.

Pretty much anti-PS3. Or atleast comes across that way.

Ynos Yrros · May 23, 2008

Nothing to see here.

SolidSnakex · May 23, 2008

Apparently the MGS4 review is bogus.

lol, I'm not trying to troll the game, if that thought is crossing your mind. I do have a history here on GAF :lol

Just was curious, I saw some 'display box art' and wondered if it was real or fake.

I know, but I had to put that in before some idiot cried about an install XD

"xbots" comes to mind.

HomerSimpson-Man · May 23, 2008

Heh, I was going to write a posting asking something fishy about that cutscene comment as that wasn't really true of the previous MGS games especially MGS3, the cutscenes tend to clock around 3 1/2 hours for the games give or take.

And according to the OPM UK reviewer he clocked a total of 29 hours say said maybe 1/3 cutscenes, that suggested something like 19-20 hours of pure gameplay.

Well now, I guess it's nothing really.

fistfulofmetal · May 23, 2008

I wasn't really bothered by the (fake) scores. I mean... I weathered the 8.7 Gamespot dropped on the greatest game of all time, MGS3.... so I think I'll be able to cope!

Yeah, seeing both MGS1 and MGS3 score in the 8's alongside something like Mark Ecko's Getting Up at Gamespot made me not give too much of damn at Gamespot regarding Metal Gear.
