I'm quite impressed by the graphics. Kojima and his team put a lot of attention to detail into just about everything you can think of.

The only issue I have is the same one I have with most of the other photorealistic games on the 360 and PS3 ... which is the color palette. I hope MGS4's other environments use other colors.

Well since the start of the game is set in the middle east, it has kind of a dull palette. But looking at the pics of the other locations (Europe and

Shadow Mosses

) other colors are used.

Just finished watching the bonus round and wow, that PSM editor really hyped the game up for me.

I really don't get much of the complaints about that. The past MGS games have all had their own colour palette emphasized. This one seems to be the same, just that, well the Middle East is this drab colour. What has been shown of other areas seem to show their own respective palettes. Whether those are also dull and boring for some of you, I dunno, but it's not a new thing for the MGS series in the first place.

How much is there in the way of spoilers?

None, unless you don't know the title of the game. (Actually I don't think they mention the title).

 

[Pop On Arrival]

Yup, no spoilers at all.

 

[RoboPlato]

Cool, thanks. I'll watch it now. I've never really gone on a blackout before so I'm trying to be as careful as possible.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Yeah I don't think there will be any spoilers in part of the Bonus Rounds. N'Gai is a fan of the series and it doesn't seem like he's played through it yet. The only one that's played through it is the PSM editor.

Japanese vs. English vocies video:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=gDyaANQiwhQ

I guess it's kind of perfect for the current topic eh. You can notice there's different lip synching for each language, but unfortunately it's kind of a mediocre effort. It looks weird, almost like they used some sort of automated program.

Nice vid. With the exception of Otsuka, the japanese voice cast is pretty meh.

Phil Lamaar and Lee Meriwether especially sound great as Vamp and Eva. The original cast sounds good too. If only David Hayter didn't try to speak as though something is clogging his throat, that would've sealed the deal.

I guess Kojima would've wanted to use a better older voice actor, but the sad truth is we are so used to Hayter that even with his declining voice acting skills, snake isn't snake untill you hear his voice. Anyone else would've created an outcry.

 

[ausoff2]

Wow, RE Remake still look dam awesome.

I know....
I just put that in recently, and was blown away. Remember Eternal Darkness? came out near the same time, and it looked like shit. Great game tho.

 

[ausoff2]

Irrational fanboyism at it's finest :\

Dude, do you see me praising any other system? No. So don't call me a fanboy. Fact of the matter is, MGS4 seems like the only reason, right now, to own a ps3, besides blu-ray.
edit: Not that i want to start a consol war or anything.

 

[frAntic_Frog]

HEY ITS DREBIN












......







Lt. Frank Drebin that is

pshaw.

how can you say no to this face:

? D:

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Yeah, Naomi is so hot in MGS4!

 

[LSM256]

I'll respectfully disagree on this.

 

[BeEatNU]

Spoiler

I think they are with screaming mantis, if you look at the her uper arms, they look similar to the thing in that trailer

I may be blowing it but the dolls......I didn't play through MGS3 but I played the rest but are the dolls supposed to look like Psycho Mantis? Well one of them...

 

[SolidSnakex]

One is Psycho Mantis and the other is The Sorrow.

I know im hella late but thank you

Time to freeze my self and wake up 3 weeks from now.

 

[Blablurn]

Where is the official thread? Who is making it?

 

[JPBrowncoat]

Where is the official thread? Who is making it?

Shiiit...it's so close isn't it?

 

[DrBo42]

Is the official thread being made the 1st of June?

 

[Callibretto]

One is Psycho Mantis and the other is The Sorrow.

I wonder if there's a significant meaning behind it or it's just some easter egg they put for fans. kinda like Vulcan Raven toy in MGS 2. there's no reason whatsoever for someone to make an actual Vulcan Raven toys in mgs 2 world and leave it there

Snake! Press the PS Button and assign the controller to port 4!

 

[victreeb3l]

Okay, this is the end all for the comparisons:

As you can see, EVA clearly has the upper hand. I rest my case, gentlemen.

 

[Mromson]

Yupp.

6 Days left. Next Sunday!

 

[mileS]

If that strategy guide comes out early like people were saying i'm peacing the hell out of the internets until I finish MGS4.

[rod]

argh. i cant believe it. so much hype over the last few months first gta4 now mgs4. i cant wait i try not to think about it being so close and also ninja gaiden 2!! woot

 

[∀ Narayan]

Am I the only one that thinks N'Gai is a no-talent assclown?

While I wouldn't state it in such harsh terms -- it is true. He is nothing special.

 

[kuYuri]

Brandonh83 is making the official thread.

 

[industrian]

Yeah, Naomi is so hot in MGS4!

For someone who's 40-50 years old, definitely.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

err... What?

 

[Dante]

Brandonh83 is making the official thread.

I think BruceLeeRoy was also oplanning on making one, I hope those guys got it sorted out.

I think Modus was making custom graphics for Brandonh83's thread.
But I think Bruce said he had Evillore's approval

It's so much work I don't know why they can't all collaborate and just have one guy post the finished product.

 

[Blablurn]

Making threads is serious business :-o

 

[Jtrizzy]

Speaking of age, shouldn't Ocelot and Eva be in their 70's?

 

[brandonh83]

I originally asked to do it, got approval, finished about half of it then I got several PM's from Bruce and I told him that he can go ahead and throw his up because I heard it was really great. So that's what is going on. From what I've heard (and seen) it's going to be a great thread.

Just for the hell of it, here was my very work in progress banner:

 

[industrian]

err... What?

She was a child during the Rhodesian Civil War. That war was between 1964–1979.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

She was a child during the Rhodesian Civil War. That war was between 1964–1979.

In that case, she is 36 - 39 years old in my book

Speaking of age, shouldn't Ocelot and Eva be in their 70's?

Eva is. Ocelot's age can be debatable since his body is old but his soul isn't

 

[industrian]

Speaking of age, shouldn't Ocelot and Eva be in their 70's?

Ocelot is 70. Eva is 78.

 

[Awntawn]

She was a child during the Rhodesian Civil War. That war was between 1964–1979.

Whatever, 40 will do. Naomi the MILF <3

 

[DrBo42]

Whatever, 40 will do. Naomi the MILF <3

Naomi is a mom? You mean "Cougar."

 

[StuBurns]

Naomi is a mom? You mean "Cougar."

Is that just from How I Met Your Mother or is it a real used term? I've never heard it.

 

[Pop On Arrival]

If there is one female character in videogaming worthy of my eternal, undying love, it would be The Boss. Strong Women are hot.

 

[Jtrizzy]

Ocelot is 70. Eva is 78.

I guess we'll just have to overlook that at least in her case. I can't think of a way to explain a 78 year old kicking ass on a motorcycle. Maybe she had a special vag grafted on ala Ocelot's arm.

 

[Jtrizzy]

Cougar is widely used describing a single middle aged woman on the prowl for young D.

 

[industrian]

I agree completely.

Christopher Lee defies your ageism. 85 years old and still kicking ass.
