"Damn It Kojima-San"

So far i've done an hours worth of MGS3 and i think i've played about 5 minutes of it. For some reason i'm not surprised, Hideo if you want to make a movie take it to Hollywood, this is the videogame industry we're dealing with here.

Better bloody improve soon, i actually want to play this game eventually

Still not got it, damn postie, anxious to play it though :^)

When's it coming out over here?

Márch.

Most of the time, I don't care - as cutscenes go, MGS has the bestest ever in gaming history. What I can't stand is endless, pointless CODEC blabbering - how much of that?

Yeah they mentioned a HUGE intro and then you play it for freaking ages.

Still haven't got around to ordering it.

Though they f***ed that up with MGS2. Cue 5 second cutscene between 2 characters, followed by cut to codec for "secrecy", which then drags on for 5 or 6 mins. No one wants to see 2 heads tinted with green talking for that long, even if they do have lip synch !1111

Hideo messed up the direction of the game big time; none of that "magic" was present from the first game.

MGS2 had all the magic and more, why else would they have made Twin Snakes. And lalakers, not the smartest move buying an MGS game if you don't want story. They make splinter cell to cater for those sort of tastes.

I dont know why people dont like MSG2. I thought it was very good, certainly nothing to complain about. I also like most of the cut scences but the CODECs do push me to skip them.

Tis my favourite game series, I love the Metal Gear games.

I enjoyed MGS2 but it had issues like every game. Like Darwock said, Metal Gear games are 100% story based with a huge emphasis on character development and operation information. If you want to play all the time then definitely go for Splinter Cell.

For me, MGS2 had all the magic of the original with the opening chapter blowing any other game opening out of the water and still does to this day. The Raiden idea was disappointing but it wasn't "Oh what have they done, slit throat time", it was just 'different.

A lot of reviews have said Snake Eater is the pick of the bunch, can't believe I aren't playing it to be honest.
