I picked up MGS4 LE last night at GS. I haven't played MGS1 since it came out and never played MGS2 or MGS3. I am planning on replaying 1 and playing 2 and 3 before I play MGS4.
How long (hours) do the other MGS games take to beat?

HOLY SHIT!!! I have it!!! I can't believe it!!! WOOO HEATH WARNINGS :lol It's installing now. I have to worst luck though. I was all excited to go and hopped in the car and we're off. along the way I was stuck behind some old guy in a shitbox car doing 40KM/h in a 60KM/h zone for most of the way...I get the game, and on the way back, I'm stuck behind someone learning to drive (Driving school car)...GAH!

I know I am late to the party, but this is one of the greatest threads I have ever seen on any message forum. I love it. Thanks so much to the OP for all the hard work, it had to take hours.

It's hard for me to say 'must have' for something like rumble, but it is BY FAR (I'm talking lightyears) the best implementation if rumble I have ever felt. If you handed me the Dual Shock 3 for the first time with MGS4 I would have said it was using next gen rumble.
Hey guys, I want to get MGS4 soon, but I've only beaten MGS1 and MPO so far. I'm playing MGS2 now (3 hours in), and I have MGS3 sitting on the shelf.
Should I:
1. Stop playing MGS2 and get MGS4 immediately
2. Beat MGS2 and then play MGS4
3. Beat MGS2 AND MGS3, and then play MGS4
?

Quick question seeing as I can't pick this up until after work today.
Does the US regular edition have alternate art printed on the reverse of the standard art? That Old Snake render is so ugly. If yes, what's the alt art?

Got my PS3 MGS4 pack yesterday night, yeah I waited on line... there weren't too many people there, only 3 other people were picking up the console/game combo. One dude had a Ryo Hazuki shirt on, another guy had a Fox Hound tattoo... I also saw a lot of people with Metallica and Slayer shirts, what's with videogame nerds and 80's metal? I asked some of the other people what games I should get with my PS3 and they were all like "all the other games suck"
So yeah, now I'm at work and it's pissing me off b/c I wanna be home so bad and playing... this day is gonna go by SOOOO SLOOOOOW!!! Gonna play all this weekend too.
I might pick up Folklore and Uncharted eventually, when I'm done with MGS

I was shocked that while the game was installing I actually made this:
Honestly tho I was shocked on how fuckin incredible the graphics were. I knew it was gonna be good, but some of the shit looked damn near CGI. I can't wait to beat it just to play it over again. Only played it for 3.5 hours and it's already the greatest game ever created. If I didn't have to work, I would still be up playing right now

Victory!!!
I got the last 80gig bundle, the collector's edition of the game, and the only copy of the collector's edition guide at my local GS. Made out like a bandito and pissed off a bunch of people in the back of the line. Now I just have to wait another 4 hours until I get off work to play it...The suspense is mind-bottling...

yeah, good point. Ryan Payton had that super secret surprise for people who bought MGS4, a surprise that not any of the people with the leaked version could spoil
I hope it is not those (SPOILER FREE KINDA) extras you can download from the "Extras" menu.
i like how you have all your change lined up :lolbdizzle said:I was shocked that while the game was installing I actually made this:

BruceLeeRoy said:Quick question to all you sons of bitches
I wont have the game till 10 today cause Reno is a damn redneck town but is there spoilers in the Gametrailers review?
A lot of locations are revealed throughout the review, as well as new footage you may not have seen in trailers. If you're a total purist about avoiding spoilers, you shouldn't see it.
[edit] Whoa, I'm super late on that one...This thread is blowing up way too fast for my browser (and reflexes) to catch up.

lol it was a long install
Girlfriend just picked up my copy of MGS4, it cames with a small "artbook" with Character profiles and stuff, looks very thin.
My local EB was giving away 12" MGS4 figures yesterday at some draw for the launch turns out I won a figure, Raiden, I'll get her to take pictures since I'm out of the country.

Throw them at the militia men?Knight77 said:
I dunno. I would do stuff like that all the time in Snake Eater. Of course, the soldiers would never side with you.
If you're trying to get PMC soldiers with you, well -- from what I hear, that's impossible.

It wouldn't be more stuff for Snake's in-game iPod, would it?Oni Jazar said:
I'm fucking enjoying this game beyond no other. There is honestly nothing better out on the market or coming in the future. This is THE reason to own a Playstation 3.
I just finished my first boss battle, and defeated
Laughing Octopus
Laughing Beauty
Other highlights so far:-
First battle with the FROGs
Meeting Meryl
Discovering Vamp was still alive
Meeting Meryl
Discovering Vamp was still alive
OH FUCK IT EVERYTHING HAS BEEN A HIGHLIGHT
In other news though, how the fuck did they make
Rose
NAOMI
Fuck. Such a good game. Can't get over it. I don't want it to end but I don't want to NOT play either.
Oh yeah, and as I was raiding the
Mansion
Absolutely flawless. 10x better than GTA. No, 100000000 times.
BTW, how many acts? I'm too scared of spoilers to wade through this thread.
just got my LE, my impression of it is mostly the same as my initial one when i saw the photos
pretty cheap quality box and printing on the front (shinkawa art) is pretty down there. B/W manual.... WTF? poorly designed box with unnecessary logos (that are already on the game itself) everywhere.
The bonus disc seems to stand out, think that was actually handled and packaged by konami japan
they didnt mention anything about the artbook, so i thought i just ask, and what do you know they have it right behind them. my guess is that they're trying to conserve the amount given, so they just let people walk out without

I don't think that would apply for rations, but try to do it as in Syringes ( Item ), grab someone "CQC" and press triangle, It might help. still haven't tried to heal injured people, but I only tried to give them rations just after fighting with them against the PMC mercs.
