Support NeoGAF

[graywolf323]

They did say the discount was 48 hours only, so maybe it's actually being released as a daily deal?

ah I hadn't seen that, that's actually a rather brilliant idea

 

[Coppanuva]

I'm absolutely in, for this price. I'm optimistic that they took the time to get this port right, and I look forward to trying it out with my Dualshock 4. I love Platinum as much as anyone, and this will be my first time playing through the game. My expectations are high.

Same, looking forward to this so much. SO HYPE.

I hope you like the game, its one of my favorites this year.

 

[fallagin]

Wow, great price! I was expecting at least 30-40$

Look up the blade mode controls before hand so you don't come to the OT crying about how the game didn't tell you that you can look around while using it like so many have

 

[Vilix]

For people here who are going to get the game, but never played it before, I salute you.

You're in for a wild freaking ride.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Will be $30 at launch. Looks like they are doing a very nice pre-order discount knocking it down to $20, which is a great spot for most of us to pick it up.

 

[theJohann]

I honestly am very excited for this. It will be my first Platinum game, as well.

 

[Stitch]

Does it have white blood or red blood?

 

[Ghazi]

Does it have white blood or red blood?

Does it matter? It'll get modded anyway lol.

 

[GuardianE]

Does it matter? It'll get modded anyway lol.

The beauty of PC versions.

 

[Gbraga]

Does it matter? It'll get modded anyway lol.

Didn't think about it! Damn that's godlike! Can't wait to finally play with proper white blood.

 

[Dio Brando]

will gladly double dip. Loved playing it on my ps3, and will love it on PC. cant wait to pre-order it.

 

[SparkTR]

I'll buy this to support Platinum.

 

[Salsa]

damn steam sales bad timing

 

[Coffee Dog]

Those system requirements scare the shit out of me that this thing's gonna be unoptimized. 450 minimum for a console port? Dafuq? They seem awfully inflated for a game built on 2005 hardware that really isn't a looker.

Just thought of this. I'll get to play MGR:R with my DS4. Even more excited.

Eh, the 450GTS is horribly underpowered these days, and recommended being a 650 is extremely reasonable.

 

[destx]

damn steam sales bad timing

yep

they should probably just cancel/postpone the steam winter sale cuz it aint got nothin on this

 

[dreamfall]

IN MY VEINS.

Gaf disclosure making dreams come true.

I just can't take it!

 

[Totobeni]

$20 with all the dlcs is how you do late ports, other need to follow.

I just hope it's good port and not region locked on steam like PES 14 (then again I might just get s steam code from Amazon)

 

[AlexBasch]

I was on the edge of buying it for PS3 several times now. Great news.

 

[The_Monk]

This could be almost impossible to pass up but the Winter Sale is about to start tomorrow and I still have to manage my budget for the month. Either way I can't wait to check how will this look on PC, I'm trying to find some excuses to not get this Day One but it's not going to be easy to ignore all that goodness and I'm expecting many will pick it up, considering the low price for those 48 hours.

 

[MarcoZombieCannon]

Will pre-order day one and longingly stare at its icon until I can run it.

And/or see if the GTS 450 spec is in regards to VRAM amount and play anyway.

 

[Teknoman]

So...what would be the Radeon equivalent to the Min/Recommended requirements?

Im stuck with AMD until I start my upgrade budgeting...and it kinda strikes me as strange that they didnt post the Radeon equivalents as well. Or has that not been a thing for awhile (i've been able to run all releases with my current setup at great settings, so not sure why i'm worried here).

I guess that GTX650 equivalent is HD7770... which is equivalent to HD6770 and HD5770.

Minimum: Radeon 4850
Recommended: Radeon 7750

 

[zainetor]

Wow minimum a i5 2400? I hope objects stay on the ground, with this requirement.

 

[luffeN]

Showing $29,99 on my end :/ http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HERCRAI/?tag=neogaf0e-20

 

[RSLAEV]

Will buy even though I'm rocking an i3 #YOLO

 

[jediyoshi]

Showing $29,99 on my end :/ http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HERCRAI/?tag=neogaf0e-20

That is its actual price. The $20 quote is for a preorder sale.

 

[toastyToast]

Doesn't Amazon have a preorder price guarantee? Can't I just do it now? I'm pretty sure I'll forget if it's $20 for a limited time

 

[danmaku]

Great news. I expected the DLCs, didn't expect such a low price. GG Konami!

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

I'm so excited, going to pre-order on amazon.

I wish this would've stayed exclusive to consoles.

.....Why? Seriously.

 

[Twin Drive System]

Showing $20 for me now. Pre-ordered.

 

[dookeh]

Showing $20 for me now. Pre-ordered.

Same. Urge to slice rising

 

[Azure Dream]

I am so glad this didn't turn out to be vaporware.

 

[GhostTrick]

Still waiting for this to show up on Steam before doing any preorder.

 

[Fantastical]

Greeaaattt this comes out just in time for school to start.

 

[Durante]

Sounds like a solid port, and $20 is less than I expected.

Those system requirements scare the shit out of me that this thing's gonna be unoptimized. 450 minimum for a console port? Dafuq? They seem awfully inflated for a game built on 2005 hardware that really isn't a looker.

I guess that's not the case and it's been greatly improved, or they just didn't bother optimizing it?

A gts450 is really fucking slow. That's €50 worth of GPU.

 

[Kabuto]

bought. The demo was fun when I played it on Xbox and since I've heard the campaign is really short, $20 seems like a perfect price. 2013 isn't even over and I've already bought a game for 2014 $__$

 

[kudoboi]

ill wait to see if it releases on steam for my region before buying via amazon

edit: nvm pre ordered it. hopefully it can be redeemed in asia or else im boned

 

[Spaghetti]

durante has spoken

Spoiler

for real though a gts450 is a fucking ancient ass card goddamn son

 

[GhostRidah]

I doubt its going to be cheaper on release on steam, at most they will have it off for 20-25% from the listed 30$. On amazon it says it requires steam anyways.

 

[JaseC]

I doubt its going to be cheaper on release on steam, at most they will have it off for 20-25% from the listed 30$. On amazon it says it requires steam anyways.

It's going to be $20 on both Amazon and Steam for 48 hours, after which it'll be $24 until release.

 

[Durante]

In particular, for us Europeans it will probably be 25% off €30, which is quite a bit more than $20.

It's going to be $20 on both Amazon and Steam for 48 hours, after which it'll be $24 until release.

Oh. Well, $20 is still better than €20.

 

[HolyBaikal]

Oh, good. I see they weren't joking when they said only a few days.

Unfortunately, I can't really afford to buy this game right now, due to Christmas expenses. December is always a financially trying month that I don't have a lot of extra money to spend. Metal Gear games also aren't high on my priority list to spend money on.

More than anything, I'm going to be buying this in order to support Konami games on the PC. I haven't bought a Metal Gear game in years. But I really appreciate this being done.

 

[JaseC]

Oh, good. I see they weren't joking when they said only a few days.

The game isn't set to release until January 9th, which is still a few weeks away. Kojima probably just got his wires crossed with Konami's intention to offer a pre-order period.

 

[DocSeuss]

IF. ONLY. I would also like to take control of peoples minds and make them buy more copies of ZOE HD to make the former easier to accomplish.

I would have bought ZOE HD, but it wasn't on PC.

 

[DieH@rd]

Soon.
