Around the Network

Alright....watched MTV and there is definitely a TV spot for MGS4 on after the show, with reminders during the commercial breaks

I watched MTV just to prove you wrong Darth......so I hope you know we're now mortal enemies.



...

I'm watching the MTV awards and i just saw a tiny advert for MGS4 and at the end it said "stick around for the end, where you can see a theatrical trailer of Metal Gear Solid 4 at the end of the awards" or something like that :P

Now I HAVE to watch the awards lol



Platinums: Red Dead Redemption, Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet, Terminator Salvation, Uncharted 1, inFamous Second Son, Rocket League

I could be wrong about this but... isn't it Konami as the developer and publisher that would be responsible for advertising and not sony?



Yes

MGS will sell 2 mln. in NA.
Atleast by the end of year. =)
Relax people. ;)

I've seen many Haze ads. I bet that's why it sold as well as it did. Its not from word of mouth, that's for sure.



this is one game that needs to be advertised,konami has helped sony,now they should help konami



tag:"reviews only matter for the real hardcore gamer"

Sony have only just begun to pull their head out of their ass, of course they're gonna advertise it.



  

I've just seen an ad for Boom Bloz for crying out loud....how can they seriously not advertise MGS4 when that game gets ads!?

(and yes i know they are for different consoles)



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

Sony prefers Thumbs up ads over MGS4 ads;...
