Seems like your gf takes the price of evil bastard. If you don't mind me saying so.



:) some people are just very inconsiderate.. complaining about common pleb things when there are real issues to complain about.

of course I don't mind, I agree. When quiet arrives, THEN SHE'LL REGRET HER WORDS AND DEEDS!
 
Has anyone else here ordered the Premium version (with 1/1 scale arm) for import through White Rabbit Japan? Or ordered anything through White Rabbit Japan?

I ordered back when the link went up and got my confirmation way back but haven't heard anything since. Do they notify me when they get the item and then I pay for shipping of the item?
 
New MGS 5 interview:

http://gamingbolt.com/metal-gear-solid-v-the-phantom-pain-interview-all-your-concerns-put-to-rest

Konami Community Manager Robert Allen Peeler on the game's cutscenes, boss fights, enemy AI and much more.

On Side Missions: You can finish most of the main game without touching a side mission, but not sure why anyone would want to avoid them. Some of the best moments in the game come from challenging and rewarding side ops.

On Cutscenes: There are plenty of dramatic and amazing cutscenes throughout the game. The open world design has created new ways to tell stories in the game, including breathtaking moments that are interwoven within the gameplay itself.

On Reduction of controversial themes: The Phantom Pain plans to tell a mature story that will reportedly tackle many taboos such as child soldiers and what not. Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes, the prologue to The Phantom Pain touched on these serious matters resulting into a bit of controversy. We asked Robert whether these dark themes have been toned down in The Phantom Pain. Judging by Robert's response, it seems that Hideo Kojima has remained true to his vision, unshaken by the Ground Zeroes' controversy.

"The story resembles the tone and intrigue that was present in Ground Zeroes. Remember, this is a story of revenge, where Snake, Kaz and their new crew of Diamond Dog mercenaries are eager to take back what they lost at the end of the events on Camp Omega. Characters like Skullface and Quiet likewise add new elements in the story that detail the Metal Gear universe in new and unexpected ways," Robert added.

Played the first few missions and am enjoying it a lot.

Its so weird how Big Boss barely speaks though.
You feel like you wait 10 minutes for him to say something. Then he will say one sentence, then silence again.

Its bizarre.
 
Never played any of the MGS games before but I just picked up:

MGS1 (psone classic on PS3)
MGS 'HD Collection (MGS2, MGS3, Peace Walker)
MGS4

Played a little of MGS1 last night and made it to Revolver Ocelot - looking forward to that fight after work tonight. :)

That game alone brought me back from a 3 year hiatus to love games again. I will never forget finishing it.
 
What was it

Snake and Otacon turn themselves in on the crimes levelled against them in MGS2 and are publicly executed as terrorists. Apparently Kojima had been building to that for a long time but his staff basically mutinied and told him they loathed the ending. Honestly, that would have been very fitting for a Kojima tone.

Doesn't matter to me, could be a spoiler, not watching it. This here is the only social platfrom I am on right now.

I took care to explain the video without spoiling anything :)

The whole video is of what was shown in Metal Gear Solid 5 Red Band Trailer (E3 2013) Scenes shown in this video are: HINT
Kaz
(6:07) now theres one scene I cant find that I seen many times... HINT
HOSPITAL

Within these scenes speak of fan made conspiracies and makes fun of them that I have heard of many times. use this information if you wish to go ahead and see it.

KOJIMAAAAA

This can mean only one thing, they haven't changed anything after the fallout, nothing got cut because i'm pretty sure this would be one of the first things they would remove.

Just saw someone post this:

Aww Yiss!

I'm still curious about this super cool feature that's only available through video games by importing a GZ save. Since none of the reviews used an imported GZ save, there's no information about what sort of stuff happens or how many missions take place on Camp Omega (If that's even still a thing.)

The Kojima Productions logo is still in too, and it pops up after every story mission, Kojima's name is in this a lot. It seems the only thing that Konami have interfered with is the box.
 
Haha! The fuck did I do? :)

I think the way you approach all MGS games is important. If I want MGS4 to be hyper self serious then I'm not really going to get that throughout. If I go "This is even a parody of itself..." then it makes me go HOLY SHIT NAILED IT

and I like the way you phrased it and that will stick with me and make me love parts of the series even more.

Which makes the whole thing about removing his name from the box even more stupid.

My new poster!

It's from a local store near me. Guy just gave me it as as well as the game early lol.

Wow nice, i'm getting the flashlight (would have preferred a poster or shirt) free with the CE because it got delayed for about 2 weeks.

So MGS crazy as i'm i bought the day 1 edition and it will arrive on monday, there was just no way i'd wait another 2 weeks for this game.

You can order this poster on Amazon I think. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OUGE83A/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Yeah bro but i was just wondering which store gives out posters.

They mentioned something interesting, Konami is pursuing new research. They claim what they're doing in Japan is the missing piece. a weapon to surpass metal gear.

*whispers of Pachinko....

The store near me is an indie store called Joypad, the stores fucking amazing, it's got EVERYTHING in it.
Sorry to hear about your delay, it's stupid, having to buy a separate edition just to get the game on release. Smh.

Right? really so stupid, it's not like Konami had MONTHS to prepare for release, absolutely ridiculous. They told me Konami had to print something new... seriously wtf?

Ah well whatever, it is how it is now... i'm just glad i can play the game very soon.

Enjoy the game man. :)

Thanks, I was super excited going to pick it up, the first time in my life I've ever felt sick because of excitement. I felt like a little kid again.

Exactly, Konami should fucking sack the company printing the boxes, it's ridiculous.

I'm biting my fingernails refreshing my orders constantly. I wish I had an Amazon pre-order. They are solid. GameStop and BestBuy? PFT I don't trust them worth shit.
