New Shinkawa art:
I would post the source link, but it contains a big spoiler, so I won't
If you'd like the link, just PM me ;-)
:O Nice

Yeah that's the art from the official guide.
Also is there someone behind Boss?
Oh, you recognise that. It's the X-Ray Snake post from the e3 2013 trailer.

Why does he have a right arm now?

maybe it's SPOILERS
or that's the real Boss and not Grey Fox with his robot arm.

Of course it will be. I don't no if there are games which don't support download while playing. I think you need to download 5-7GB to play it.
I'm forgetting that I saw that real quick.
Haha.
Oh, the next few days are going to be interesting.

It's his right arm. Righty real lefty fakey.
It should I think. Maybe the hospital part'll be playable. Wouldn't bet on it though. Though most games over 10gigs support play-go.
He always did

Ok this seems easy enough to do.Thanks!
Is it?
This is where things get fucked up.
Because it could be spoilery, but people wouldn't know that unless someone who knew it was spoilery said it was spoilery, and the person they told knew that the person saying it was spoilery would know if it's a spoiler.
But now that I think of it, Big Boss lost his left arm, so this is much ado about nothing.

Sorry, I won't joke about that anymore.
Yeah hopefully. How big is the whole game? Around 25gb?

around 12 gig last gen, this gen 25-26 and 28 on pc
Everyone who's played and completed MGS4 please watch this with YouTubes subtitles on. Just turn turn the subtitles on and read along, shit I never knew how funny and wrong YouTubes built in subtitles are.

I love how Shinkawa's art is so surreal and contrasting to the final game which is set in it's own rules which feels real. And yet it works out perfectly. I think Metal Gear is the only series with such a contrast that actually feels right.

Did anyone else ever figure that the total size of TPP is 28.7GB compressed?
MGSV:TPP is 25.1GB [compressed] to download on PSN.
MGSV:GZ is 3.6GB.
Combined, that is 28.7GB total - which makes it the largest Metal Gear game ever made.
MGS4:GOTP was 26.6GB and it took up 99% of a 50GB dual-layered Blu-Ray disc, so in comparison if you uncompressed MGSV:TPP with MGS:GZ together, it wouldn't fit on one Blu-Ray disc; so maybe that is why MGS:GZ had to be on a separate disc - so MGSV:TPP could fit on one Blu-Ray disc.

You can be sure that the reason Ground Zeroes is a separate release has nothing to do with disc size limitations. That's pure Konami.

Lol nope. GZ already includes the base game loader (whatever you call that part) without all the levels, assets, sounds etc. TPP also includes the base game including all the assets. If GZ was included with TPP, it'll barely be a gig more at best and that only includes the assets and the unique sound files.
The reason why it's a separate release is Konami saw it fit to be released alone so they could earn something before TPP comes out.
MGS4 took up a whole 50GB disc because the game was duplicated and it had uncompressed audio.
MGSV will take up 25.1GB, it's compressed on the disc, it gets uncompressed when it's being loaded and stored onto the HDD. So no GZ and TPP would have fit with room to spare.

The press receiving a fake ending would be the best fucking way Hideo Kojima could see his franchise off.
Nobody has completed it yet.

That would be perfect. Though I doubt Konami would've let him do that.

So according to this - yes: http://www.metalgearinformer.com/?p=20405

Yea, Konami are too boring for that. Also the copies being sent out to reviewers earlier to release are likely just retail copies so the ruse wouldn't last long. Still, the thought is hilarious.

It's in the OP what the teams are, Team B is No Hayter, but Solid Snake is in it.
Sorry for asking this questiong again brothers, but i'd like a little more feedback.
I'm looking to get an early copy (still not got it yet, sad face) and with only 9 days left at which point do i just not bother getting it, because my main copy will be on pc and i don't want spend an extra £40 or more just for a couple of day extra, especially as i don't have a ton of money.

David Hayter in the centre.
I had no idea Peace Walker was so playful with its Game Over screens.
They're great.
How many squares do you need to fill?

Lol, those are great. Never seen them before.
I'm going to be asleep when the reviews hit. I'll go into the review thread as soon as I wake up and there will only be one possible reaction:

Guys, do we have a generally recommended run down of the entire story thus far, to refresh my memory?
Srey Plaughtered

It won't last long but it'll be a bigger ruse than even the Moby Dick thing.
Though now that I think of it even if something like that happens Konami will come out and say 'It's we who decided to do that and not Hideo Kojima'.
I'd say wait till 25/26. If you get an early copy, awesome. If not, then wait with us.
