Don't be that guy.
Its okay to get excited about things. Lighten up and have some fun.
I mean, what impressions do you need? Do you like the Metal Gear series? If so, then you'll want to play this regardless of impressions. If not, don't bother.
I'm not sure what you're fishing for here.
I'll be picking up my LE preorder after work tonight. Can't wait for the strat guide pressure sale.hidepsyence

Same thing with me - I asked the best buy guy (who was doing a midnight launch) if they were getting LE's (I forgot it was GS exclusive) - He says "Well uh... no, but common do you really need the soundtrack?"
I almost slapped him! I quickly snapped back "Have you ever played MGS!?"
He shuffled his feet nervously and said "Well I hope I see you tonight!"
It is 11.30am here in Florida, I just took an early lunch and picked up my copy at Gamestop without a reservation. They have about 30 copies that I saw behind the counter. Now I have to make it until 5.00pm so I can finally play it.
For some odd reason I am starting to feel sick hmmm.

So I am fighting Raging Raven, beat her pretty easy in her beast mode, now she's in beauty mode. I'm looking for the statue, but can't find it, and all of a sudden I'm warped into some empty area.. The Construct..
Anyway, I made a video of what can only be described as the very first boss fight you can actually fap to.

Let's just say, Raging Raven has one heck of an ass.

Well in the past its either been the machine whats locked like RFOM which as i said isnt the case on this or game locked like UT3 was when that came out and F1 & Motorstorm is (ie NTSC machine PAL game so euro servers only which is what Id rather have). We know now its not machine locked so PAL game works fine on NTSC machine as I didnt fancy months of quiet servers like RFOM again.
The installation didnt bother me. I sat and watched him for a min then plugged the pad in and recharged it. Took longer to take a dump than install so it was done when I got back feeling much lighter :lol
I picked my bundle up yesterday during lunch (Walmart was more than happy to break the date) and I chatted with the manager who pulled all the employees around and taught them how to ring up the gift card.
But I called ahead (last night around 6) and picked up a second bundle for my friend on my way into work this morning, and I got the last one. The manager said all the Wally worlds were sold out in the city, and he only held one for me since I knew him and already got one yesterday.
He said he expected about a dozen more over the next week, and similar numbers at other stores, but he said with the 100 gift card he has sold at least 30-50 units over the past two weeks.
He said its been a great thing for Walmart, as they have been able to get people to immediately spend the gift card on accessories, Blurays, games... he even made quite a few HDTV sales.
The game is great, I cant believe I am stuck at work til about 6 tonight.

Is anyone playing this on a SDTV? I'm not going to be able to afford an HDTV until Christmas at the very least.
Also, are the bundles limited or are they going to continue releasing them through the year?
I'm buying a PS3 for this game. There's going to be at least a minor bump in hardware sales.

I can't afford one. I'm a college student and I really don't make the money to afford a PS3. The only reason why I can afford one at the moment is because I'm working 40 hours a week. My pay will go down big time when classes start back.

Well I have to say.
I don't have a PS3 and never really been into MGS but I am glad to know that at least one game has been able to fulfill the promises of the videos and teasers and hype.
Enjoy it fellas.
*No, I can't buy a PS3 (at these prices) for one game.

lol naw it's cool. just didnt wanna be confused with the whiny gaffers that always finds something to complain about.
ya i agree. i remember installing ff11 for pc and THAT was a long install. i swear that thing took like an hour to install the 5 disks, and i still didn't complain. i just watched tv, listened to music and chatted on aim with my friend who already bought the game.

No, I can't. My monitor isn't HDCP enabled even though it's less than two years old. We hooked up my friend's PS3 to it and it won't show anything.

expecting anything other than incoherent 'OMGGGGGG's in the official thread, the first day the game is released is asking too much
Games is awesome thus far (as expected). The intro was completely different from what I expected and totally incredible. Just taking a break for lunch now.
Don't listen to everyone. You can enjoy this without an HDTV. It will still look awesome. You can even adjust the overscan (in order to avoid cutting anything off) and change the size of the icons and such. They clearly took SDTVs into account when creating this game.Absinthe said:

Damn, I JUST picked up the game and now I have to go to work. Sigh... this is probably going to be the longest 8 hours of my life.
Damn Kastro, you just reminded me too... shit I need one as well. I'll pick one up at work though.Kastro said:

I think t-frog thinks that by giving the game an A- people will actually read the body of his review.
Pretty big Act 4 spoilers:
This game is just amazing. Again, big Act 4 spoilers:
Holy shit, just figured out how to kill Vamp after 5 times of getting his health to 0. Sneaky bitch of a game: it took him saying his nanomachines line twice for me to click on. That is absolutely fantastic!

my eyes started stinging when the the MGS ending tune played at the heliport. Just wow. I'm such a softie
