What many poeple don`t seem to understand with Metal Gear is that you buy "THE HIDEO KOJIMA PACKAGE". Either you love great gameplay and cutscenes directed better than most hollywood movies and buy the game, or you don`t and leave the game to those who loves it.

"I love the game, but I hate watching those long cutscenes. I just don`t understand anything of it. I just want to shoot some and shout: GET SOME."

If you`ve thought those words or similar; DON`T BUY OR PLAY THE GAME. Buy gears of whatever.

 

Sorry, this was a little off topic, but I couldn`t hold back since there are so many "I hate the Metal Gear cutscenes" whiners here.

The other Metal Gears dating back to MGS1 and 2 did not use this abundance of cutscene to tell the story.  This is the first MGS game to have had such a large amount of story told just by cutscenes totalling 9 hours long.

So apparently the Kojima package keeps changing which is why some people did not like MGS4 cutscenes but still love the MGS series.

 

 So you`re saying Metal Gear SOLID 1,2 and 3 didn`t use cutscenes to tell much of the story? I remember when people were complaining: "When do I get to play the game? Just press start and you`ll skip the cutscenes."

If it gets released on the 360 as well, it'll be at least two discs. Why? Simply because MGS3 had problems to fit on a regular DVD. If a 6th gen game had trouble fitting, then how about a 7th gen game? No way it's going to fit on a single DVD9. I'm pretty sure if won't take more than three discs though, and I might still go for two instead of three. I'm not so sure about MGS4 however, as it was designed for the PS3 in the first place.

Anyway, if it's not as epic as MGS4, I'm not disappointed. If might actually do good for the series to not try too much. Not that I'd like having a 360 version... MGS4 just tried too much, and even MGS3 wasn't what it could have been. Actually I'd like Kojima to be more relaxed this time. He's trielly trying too too hard to please everyone.

hahaha.xbox users always say they dont care about mgs and then some news about kojima comes up and all of a sudden xbox users are wetting there pants "ah hes gonna announce mgs on xbox,can't wait" lol hahaha.

Some Xbox owners actually do love Metal Gear Solid and would just like to have it on their system, you know?

 

 Yeah, alot of 360 owners have always proclaimed love for MGS4. As for me, I couldn't care less about Metal Gear Solid games and honestly think MGS is best left a PS franchise, but thats just me. I WOULD love to see MGO Online without Konami ID though.

 

I agree.!

Exactly.  The cutscenes in the earlier games were no where near as long or as frequent.  Of course, they did rely on the codec which was kinda annoying too.  I can remember MGS1 and 2 and neither had this many cutscenes or had ones that lasted this long.

 Ok, but I really want to know how long cutscenes were in the three other games. I agree the package is changing.

I really can`t understand what your point is. Please explain.

Thank ye.

This will never happen.



twingo on 27 March 2009

Kojima would never allow his game to be inferior due to being multi.

A port later on could happen but the game will be designed for one platform.



URNotE on 27 March 2009

of course it wont be as epic... it will be limited by its 360 counterpart... we witnessed that with gta... that dlc shoulda been included on the disc not as DLC...san andreas was twice as big too and that was on the ps2
