after watching the gameplay video on PSN - I feel confident that this game will be amazing.

I'd wager the gameplay is fairly similar, with new tools and mechanics (Like barrel rolling. If only Peppy made a cameo). Also, according to the 15 minute video, a FPS mode. But that's kinda the thing about stealth games, there's some very basic mechanics that don't change much from game to game, with different tweaks, tools and skills.
And those who like those games will definitely like metal gear. Even if story can concentrate a lot on genes instead of subterfuge and nuclear war, which one would really expect. Sometimes I think Kojima spends all his time taking genetics classes.
Plus, Snake can now cockpunch! Truthfully, I'm expecting an improvement on gameplay in a game that's already credited as very good, so if it was crappy before in one's opinion, I doubt that will change, but if it was mediocre or higher in your opinion before, it'll be better now.
See Ya George.

WOW your being a troll arent you....Metal Gear Solid in my history has sold way better here in America and Japan...Metriod series doesn't do nothing in Japan but collect dust...Metal Gear Solid always hits a million in both of those regions...so your quite wrong on this statement...and MGS4 will sell a whopping 2 million in America and 1 million in Japan.... |

Once again, if we had not seen gameplay, his story might have credibility. But the game really does look like it went out of its way to overhaul things. It isn't the same old Metal Gear.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
Everybody has their opinions. I think Halo is pointless, but I know many who think otherwise so whatever.
Personally, I'm really excited for this game. Except for the fact that MGS2 was difficult to understand near the end, Hideo Kojima has done a great job on his games and I've enjoyed them all (except for Twin Snakes, but that was done by Silicon Knights and not by Kojima).

Wrong.
Metroid Prime- 120,000 in Japan + 1,920,000 in the US + 730,000 in others = 2,770,000 total worldwide
Metroid Prime 2- 70,000 in Japan + 820,000 in the US + 370,000 in others = 1,260,000 total worldwide
Metal Gear Solid- 780,000 in Japan + 2,810,000 in the US + 2,000,000 in others = 5,590,000 in total
Metal Gear Solid 2- 850,000 in Japan + 2,290,000 in the US + 2,420,000 in others = 5,560,000 in total
Metal Gear Solid 3- 860,000 in Japan + 1,420,000 in the US + 1,680,000 in others = 3,960,000 in total
MGS outsells MP in every region. In fact the lowest selling MGS game sells almost equal to both MP games worldwide combined. US sales for Metroid Prime are good but not through the roof in comparison to other games, including MGS.
Even if you add the old Metroid games, that were more popular in Japan as you pointed out, MGS is still a bigger series. MP is the best seslling Metroid game ever even though it did poorly in Japan.

Of course i knew from the start that he wouldnt since kojima doesnt like xbox or as he calls it "the dvd player". I rather have the ps3 or "movie theather" any day. Seroiusly though whoever said that is doesnt compare to halo is the biggest ass of all. Halo is a overrated price of gabbage. Its been around for what---4 years and people think is the best game ever...No f'in way...MGS has been around for 20years. Since xbox whats to do whatever ps does i not surpise that they try to steal this exculize from ps,.... But seroiusly halo is not the best game ever. lets look at some games that any true video gamer would agree was better then halo The Legend of Zelda Metriod Prime Metal Gear solid Mario Super Smash Bros I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR KOJIMA ANNOUNCE THAT IT WAS COMING TO THE XBOX 360 TO SEE HOW FAST EVERY BODY ON THIS THREAD CHANGES THEIR MINE... But i am use to MS trying to steal a exculize from sony....That their whole buisness ethic Lets see PC---- idea stolen from APPLE MAC ZUNE--idea Stolen from APPLE IPOD XBOX--idea Stolen from the two best game systems devolpers of all time Nintendo and Sony |
What does Halo have to do with this thread? At least try to keep your trolling on topic. Oh and also try to make more sense next time since you seem to ramble a lot.

It was kind of an argument starter, but Halo is similar to the OP's opinion on the Metal Gear Solid series. Some people may think "X" is stupid and overrated and others wont.
All opinion. . . just put in a way that says "come fight me!".
I totally agree. Apart from Gears of War, this has got to be the most overrated game (series) in history. The cut scenes in MGS2 were just ridiculous. Splinter Cell is everything Metal Gear should be. I just finished Double Agent for the 360, and THAT is a brilliant game. From start to finish, the game was just wonderful. Metal Gear, not so much.
