I'm a bit confused. Wasn't there suppose to be some making of the game or documentary video somewhere? I did search a bit through the game menu. But can someone enlighten me on this?

Are there any spoilers in the GT review?
Click to expand...

yes, especially for locations...loads of them..not many story spoilers exactly, but I would avoid it...

I wasnt too bothered as I won't be playing the game for a long time, since I will be travelling for a while

Hopefully this is the right place - quick question:

After I get the MK II and go out into the street both groups of soldiers are shooting at me - I thought I was supposed to be 'on the side' of the rebels?

(Spoiler if you don't know what happens in the first hour or so)

89 minutes cutscene am confirmed

Exactly. Or rather; two times 45 minutes cutscene, with a few minutes gameplay between. As far as I'm concerned that might as well be like a 90 minute cutscene.

Either way, I'm gonna go pick up my copy of the game soon. I think I'll go with the standard version of the game though. Then I'm gonna sit at work trying to concentrate on, you know, working instead of looking at the box or whatever for seven or eight hours.

If you attack the PMCs or give food to the militia they will become your friends. You can see if they are by equipping the solid eye, friends names are blue

Excellent, thanks. I'm not really a massive MGS fan so I'm a bit lost, but enjoying it so far.

I just put in a few hours in the game and I gotta say the production values on this game are BRILLIANT! I actually finished up MGS3 this afternoon in anticipation for this game and the difference in the presentations are like night and day.

One thing I'm super happy about is that the lips are actually synced up with the voices and the localization is really good. I kind of find it refreshing to hear these characters actually curse. It just makes them all the more human to me.

All in all, first impressions of the game have exceeded my expectations, but I'm calling it a night.

Happy sneaking, everyone!

Any stealth tips at the start? I'm finding the controls a little finnicky like trying to hold someone up is harder than it looks....

I am in awe!!!! This game is crazy, the amount of stuff I have seen and done in less than three hours is more than you do in some games. Oh and the cutscenes, the bar is raised, I have never seen anything as well done as this.

So much I want to say but I am tired, more tomorrow.

My dad was going to surprise me by picking up a PS3 for finishing my freshman year at the university but heard there was a bundle coming out so he held off. Hopefully I'll have one soon and see what's got all y'all batshit crazy.

I wish I had gone to the midnight launch. I have to wait another 7 hours now. :(

Yeah. I'm at work right now. My stuff will arrive around 3:00 PM. (It's 2:41 AM, right now.)

The wait isn't unbearable, or anything. I mean, I've waited 3 years for this game to come out - and 5 five years to finish this story. If I've been able to wait this long, I can definitely wait until then.

The nice thing is that, once I get off of work - It's pretty likely I'll be exhausted. So, I'll be sleeping until the very moment my bundle arrives.

It's going to be something else, you know? I don't think I've ever been so excited for a game in my life. I truly feel that, once I beat Metal Gear Solid 4, I could probably give up videogaming forever. Of course, I have no plans to do such a thing - but I'm sure you know what I mean. >:]

quick gameplay questions, no real spoilers..

1. how do i gift food and such?
i shot the PMC people and still the militia saw me as the enemy. i had to shoot them all. is it too late for me to befriend them?

2. can you not drag people when they are dazed on the ground? i only get the drag option if they are dead

3. ...i forgot, post later i guess.

only small gripe i have is that i cant go up to higher levels very much. being stuck on the ground makes it harder to go around the enemies.

There. Now I've got a copy of the standard version of MGS4. Didn't wanna pay more than double the cash for the Euro LE.
