The day draws near when we can all go out and buy our very own copy of MGS2, but is anyone out there bothered about the free dvd. I mean when you take your spankin new game home whose gonna be bothered with some crappy dvd when you can be playing the game.

LAW666 has got the idea. Wehey all this effort hasn't just been a waste of my time. Konami don't have to hold up the game- there are much simpler ways of bringing out this dvd without disturbing the release date. But I've decided it might make an O.K extra. Please feel free to argue your points.

Why the hell do we have to wait 2 extra weeks for a crappy DVD?
why dont they just release the DVD seperatly after the game release and put a voucher in the MGS2 box so that people who bought the game can go and get it (if they want it)
that way everyone gets the game on time!.

Just wondering if all of the tedious cut scenes from the game could be left out and moved to the DVD? That way I might actually want to play the game instead of using it for catching up on some much needed shuteye....

Thats what I did. Put the DVD in first and then it came up saying that there are spoilers, so I turned it off. I then watched it after I had completed it. I doubt i'll ever watch it again. But at least it was a nice extra, which showed you how the game was made e.t.c. Also it had a part on it which explained a bit in the game that I didnt notice. So on a whole I hope the MGS2 DVD is as good or better than that of Silent Hill 2.

I must get on and watch that DVD now I've completed the game.

I think the MGS2 DVD is a good idea and I'm prepared to wait and it makes a nice change that we actually get something all the other areas (Japan & States) didn't get.

Well the DVD for Silent Hill 2 was a nice bonus. It was nice to watch after you had completed the game, as it gave away what the storyline had been about. The DVD should be good and a nice extra to get with the game.

I think the extra DVD is a good idea. Once the game is beaten, its nice to have an extra DVD to look through.

Like films on DVD's, its always great when you have tons of extras to look through once you've sat down and watched the film.

Really, its nice to have that something extra to make this wait not such a kick in the balls.

I'm thinking them holding up the game has more to do with X-box creeping up just around the corner. And I think its only fair they give us this extra DVD, especially since we are the last people in the world to get the game.
