I've played on both, including a small SD TV and it still looks great. Virtually all the text is still readable.maniac-kun said:
If you're going to play on an SDTV, something you definitely want to do right off the bat, after the long initial installation, is go into options, and change the on-screen icon size to Large. This'll make it more managable to play on an SDTV. Text is still very difficult to read, especially if you're running on anything below an s-video cable, but its manageable. You're missing out on the finer details in the graphics by playing on an SDTV, but its nothing gamebreaking.maniac-kun said:
Or rather, I think it probably is relatively linked to having to deal with where they're heading in terms of the next game they're making, budgeting manpower, and perhaps dealing with the higher ups and Konami in general, just like that stupid ID crap Konami decided to initiate with MGO.jett said:

That would be bullshit. I'd rather them add trophies to the current game and sell an expansion or update via dlc. And update MGO to be free of the konami and game id's.
Currently playing through Act 2 and still loving it.
My favorite moment so far?
It was classic Kojima and I loved it.

When Laughing Octopus mimicked the Mk. II and tricked you into following her. I thought, "Cool, Otacon found a way out!" and then an unexpected explosion knocked Snake off his feet. "Not too smart are we?!"

Pulled out the game in order to kill some time before the Christmas rush of games. Completed it on Hard watching only a few of the cutscenes and really enjoyed it. I obtained a lot of different weapons and items, plus some secret areas. Enjoyed it so much I started again on Extreme and the same thing happened, there are items and areas that I didn't find the first two times through.
The game is really good for that.

I wish I did, it was excellent.
But I don't for some reason. I will sometime I'm sure as I've replayed the others lots.
Finished Snake Eater yesterday for the 3rd time. Wasn't as good as I rememberd. The ending was great as always but the chase scenes didn't do it to me. Maybe I got spoiled by MGS4's chase scenes.
Anyway, Started my 2nd playthorugh of MGS4 today. Almost at the end of Act 1. It it so much fun. This time I try to not interfere in the battle, and just sneak by. I can't do this all the time, but when I can, and it works, it feels great.

Oh. Regardless, I can't wait to see what's next!
BTW, does anyone know why the dialogue fades in and out (sometimes it's not even audible at all) during the Mission Briefings? Is it intentional to encourage the player to control the MK. II to hear and see what's going on or is it some kind of technical issue?
Finally finished the game last night. Holy shit that was an epic final battle, very appropriate. The cut scenes were a bit much at times (i wanna play dammit) but I was unprepared for the awesomeness of the final acts. I got the game day one and just finished it, it'll be a bit before I can replay it, i'm drained.

Nah, there was just more of an emphasis on action set pieces than meaty gameplay. It was good but it should have been spread out more rather than piled on in the last three chapters. Honestly, gameplay-wise MGS3 was the most well rounded of the series. MGS4 was epic but it left you wanting more substance for all the style they gave you.

If the game wasn't broken into acts... would people be saying the same things?
I would have liked a bit more but I like the idea that I'm going to several different countries in this game as opposed to the previous iterations. It's just like the movies... the characters sometimes spend brief moments here and there but spend large amounts of times elsewhere. Why would a game/movie/book have the final area(s) of the story take up such a large chunk of time to get through? That's what the build up is for. The final act should always be short on scene but full of substance. MGS4's final act gives us this.
. That's a lot of deep stuff for a section that gets a lot of hate.

There's sneaking, room clearing, boss fight, hallway clearing, crawling, and then final boss fight
