Forums - Gaming Discussion - EGM boycott: no Metal Gear Solid 4 review

Bro they are not saying that they do it because of: the 90 minute long cutscenes and the 4GB install.


Could be something else like 'Raiden is again playable' ..

Or that's it's coming to the 360.  



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

I'm just stating what others think might be true, sis.

I find it suspicious that they will still review the game in the next issue, which mostly tells me that they probably wanted to dive right into the story aspect.



@Famine: Sorry my reaction was not against you but to BengaBenga.

Like I said before, Nobody know Raiden was in it no mentioned it in a review untill it was released in Japan and USA.

@LoldthenightKnight: Hmm nah I don't think that they want to stated that...  I am pretty sure it will come on X360 someday but that is not what EGM boycott the MGS4 review.






Well thats bad Konami.....I am disappointed

but Boycotting them....not a chance

MGS4 FTW...as it is the best game of this year

I'm pretty sure there was a wink after my comment.

Some of you needs to look up the definition of "review"...

It's not a review when reviewers are forced to review to specifications. It's advertising.



If they were that smart they could just wait the game hit the shelves and then rank it an 7.9 because of the "lengthy cutscenes and 4GB instalation"



 ..........
^Click on cards to level'em up!!!^ =D

Is there anything that proves what exact reason the EGM staff is delaying their review?

As has been said, there is a long list of things Konami doesn't want people to say, and EGM could just as easily be delaying the review so they have more freedom in writing things that could be considered spoilers. Or perhaps they want to mention the cutscenes and install, but it still won't affect the score.

I get the feeling that some here don't think the game deserves the scores it has gotten, and they're looking to EGM now for some kind of divine retribution, and you may be disappointed.



...

Removed, I am an idiot.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

And for those PS3 owners EVEN THINKING about BOYCOTTING KONAMI

Remember this

KONAMI has kept the game EXCLUSIVE to PS3 despite last years sales....so why on earth would you boycott them is beyond me
