"Metal Gear Solid Gamecube"

I know this is the PS2 forum but i just wanted to know why this game hasn't got alot of antisapation, i dont have a GC but i was confused why a MGS game would have such a low antisapation level, knowone has talked about it, is it good or is it just a pants game to get PS2 owners pumped up for MGS: Snake Eater.

Same here

That's true as well, if the game stayed in the tanker for the whole time, come up with more ideas and more locations and no Raiden then it probably would have been a AAA title in my eyes.

Someone should tell Kojima if he wants to get carried away with cinematics, do it in a movie, videogames are meant to be played not watched

The boss fights weren't that

Was the only original fight anyway.

When i had MGS i always fought Vamp, i loved it. The other bosses i ignored.

I let one of my mate borrow MGS:SOL and he never gave it back, im not gonna ask for it back though, i've still got the special edition disc.

Some of the game needed to be cut badly. The whole Vamp idea is about the only part of the shell that I really enjoyed. The tanker section was faultless, true Metal Gear style gameplay with the right amount of cinematic feel. It was like Hideo Kojima just got completely carried away with the Shell section as gameplay more or less went out of the window and cinematics took over. The boss fights weren't that impressive either, Vamp was the only decent one there as well.

Plus also Raiden and Rose have to be the 2 most annoying, totally rubbish videogame characters in history.

Shut up you daft bint i've got 3 metal gears trying to kill me here

But the majority ogf cinematics looked so sweet it actually made up for the lack of new ideas and areas towards the latter stages on the game. As FFF pointed out, some of the cinematics were seriously mind blowing. I still much prefer the original purely because there was more actual play time.

I agree though there were too many cut scenes.

Slightly? I'd actually like to play at least more than 20% of this game, if i wanted to watch a movie i'd go to the cinema thank you Mr Kojima.

Providing it reverts back to the classic Metal Gear Solid gameplay it will be far better than Metal Gear Solid 2, hit or not.

I think the next MGS will be too hard for me, you haveto find, kill and eat snakes to keep your health up apart from that you still have to avoid getting shot by guards, mayhem!

Hmmm....it does actually sound good. Im not sure whether the PS2 one will be as successful as Sons of Liberty as it is set in a jungle meaning a totally different environment, the gameplay will be similar though as you can still hold up guards, eat snakes (??) etc.
