Lord Error
Insane For Sony
Heh, nice observation.The most diehard Metal Gear fans seem content with the review. The desperation is on the face of trolls who don't want them to be satisfied. How pathetic is that?

Yeah seriously. Anyone who's been a GAF member for a period of time has participated in shit like this before. It's entertainment. If you take this crap seriously somethings wrong.ElyrionX said:Welcome to GAF.
Pretty soon, we'll all get tired of this shit and the next time a score-bomb hits, all of us would simply post popcorn pictures, batman running with the bomb gif and laughing emoticons for 10 pages without any substantial text at all........

Are there any spoilers in the video review or text review of the game on Gamespot?
I just gave a call to my EB (in Canada) and was told that "the game was supposed to come out on friday" (WTF?!) "but we just got word that it got pushed back a day - so saturday!"Um, this is little off topic but somewhat related seeing as how I can't make my own judgement of the game since I CAN'T FIND IT ANYWHERE. Does Best Buy, Target, or Circuit City have it in yet? GS and EB says they'll get it tomorrow.
I'm pretty sure there are definitely some story spoilers. I can't say for sure because I skipped every paragraph that started with "The story is..." or alike.Are there any spoilers in the video review or text review of the game on Gamespot?
From the MGS3 demo, I thought the camera is friendlier and more useful than it was in MGS2, as you can move and stick it to a position you like. I hope that system is not going to break further into the game.
Dunno about GS but the IGN video review is spoiler-free.Leguna said:TO ALL:

I figured. When you are running southwards, you definitely have to switch the camera all the way down for example. I don't mind it, though, as 3rd person camera, like in SC, needs constant adjustments anyways. On the other hand, I just really like that cinematic feel and the atmosphere the MGS-type of camera gives, even if it's sometimes detrimental to gameplay.The problem is that you have to constantly switch it depending on the direction you're heading in.

As it shouldn't. If you read what he says in the review, you'll probably want the game even moreThe score does not affect my desire for this game....not a bit

Mashing said:You should be used to it... the Metroid Prime 2 and Halo 2 score threads were the same.
DSN2K said:OMG 1 day! I have to wait 4 months.....
Does this mean that the game will have slow gameplay like Splinter Cell?
I like the idea that you can be more creative, but it also sounds that the game will be slow without the radar. As far as i know there are three different radars. one that shows you where all still or still lifeform is, One that detects both moving and still but makes a sound that can be heard by everyone and one that makes a higher frequency beep the closer you move to something but can only be heard by you. it does sound like it will work well, but I dont know how well it will work in indoor environments.Ryu said:The penalties for being detected are no where near as severe in MGS3 as they are in Splinter Cell plus the fact that you actually take far less damage from gunfire then in any other MGS game to date helps out a great deal as well. It seems you can still play this game however which way you want to and the environment affords you far more oppurtunities to be truly creative when approaching new challenges.

Goreomedy said:What happened to the good old days when we actually waited for gamers to overreact?
Well then I'm happy. MGS and MGS2 are my 2 most favourite games, so this seems to be a good thing for me.KilledByBill said:After reading the full review and listening to the video it seems like Greg gave the game a very fair review.
I like what he said in the video review, that the game knows its audience and if you've lenjoyed the series up till now then you're really going to love Snake Eater. I also liked what he mentioned about the depth of the games characters; how you'll learn more about Snake and his motivations as you play through the game but also just as much about great characters like The Boss and Ocelot.
I can understand his complaints as well, if you come in hoping that magically the game is going to play like Splinter Cell then you'll be disappointed. But as a big fan of the series I can't wait!

Thanks... I think I'm going to go over to the US and buy this tomorrow, although I have it preordered in that EB here.
Did he say that the gameplay was similar to the previous two games in the video review?
I'm just not confident the gameplay will bring anything fresh to the table.
Having played the first two MGS games, I think the complaints he has with MGS3 are valid.
Give us a 3rd person behind the shoulder viewpoint Konami.
KilledByBill said:Personally I'd rather have it this way since, if you choose, you can change the experience every time you play. The jungle environment seems to have really expanded these posibilities compared to the Big Shell or Tanker levels in MGS2.
Thank goodness. now all my worries are gone.KilledByBill said:Yes, this was something he talked about quite a bit. Greg made a point to mention that even with the new features added, such as CQC, MGS2 players will feel right at home in the sequel. He talked about this as another apect of the game that was great for fans of the series but probably wouldn't win over people who didn't care for the series trademark gameplay.
It also seems that now that much of the gameplay has shifted to the jungle environment, it gives the player more freedom to either run & gun their way through or play the hunter and quietly take out enemies one by one.
