Well I've come to a decision and have decided to get a PS3 this christmas instead of a new PC, allbecause of thatnew MGS4 Demonstration, itleft me stunned.

The Battle scene with the PMC's and the Militia made my mouth drop to the floor, it was breathtaking, the sound effects of guns firing in the distance, the explosions, the smoke effects, the sounds of soldiers screaming,and basically the whole atmosphere of it all, it was like a real War Zone, totally loved it.

Rock on Kojima!:D

Not really, I thought it looked good. But not amazing. But it is an unfinished game and given MGS's track record it will look amazing when it is released. But I was going to buy a ps3 regardless, I really want to play LBP. I've never been a big fan of the MGS series anyway (feel free to use that as an excuse to why I think MGS4 doesn't look amazing, I have.)

no chance.... I never had interest for this game on the PS1 or PS2... this one is more of the same. I had shooter games that are slow paced and boring, why not just play a JRPG with better story?

Anyone who buys a console because of one game..especially one as run of the mill as MGS4....is not a gamer in any way!

I bought all my systems for games...regardless of who's look best!!

i allready have a PS3, but MGS4 was one of the reasons to buy one.

Now that i've seen the demo (from the japanese PSN) on my HD projector, i'm even more hyped for the game.

Ps3 has some great games coming (but so do 360 and Wii imo)

i was blown away yes but only by the demo of MGS4, and it did look fantastic But i didn't really need convincing in the 1st place, i wanted to see what happened next in the story line of MGS4 after the events of Sons of liberty. But for just one game isn't enough to justify buying a PS3, i personally want atleast 7 decent titles to play, and an expensive console to play more multiplatform games doesn't get my vote so far i've only seen about 4 games i want. MGS4, Motorstorm, Killzone 2 and....i can't think of anymore, 3 titles. Fingers crossed more appealing games come out

I think buying a console for 1 game is stupid. I know PS3 has alot of other attracting games but i can games i like on alot of cheaper and better(IMO) consoles.

Not really, I'm still waiting to get a definative answer on whether or not there will be a port. :| And I don't care what any of you say, I believe what Konami said "We are assigning a team to handle the port of MGS4 to 360. Sadly, Kojima will not be a part of that team, but may be overseeing it as he did The Twin Snakes.":shock: But even if its a PS3 exclusive, and even though I would quite literally give me left nut to own the game, I would NOT get a PS3. Too muhc money, and not enough game. Sorry Sony, but you don't have my vote.:)

Yeah, MGS4 sealed the deal that I am indeed getting a PS3. Not that I'm getting a PS3 just for MGS4, but it just added to the list of potential great games coming out for the PS3.

you might want to see a doctor if your jaw dropped all the way to the floor. but MGS4 seriously looks amazing and i'm not talking about about graphics i'm talking about gameplay. my favorite part was when snake was running into battle but was getting shot from behind to he dives on his belly and then turnes on his back and shoots that guy off the roof

MGS really is an over-rated series. The experience is cinemtatic but the gameplay is somewhat lackluster.

No, I already knew what a PS3 was capable of. I'm still gonna wait till Sony gives us a reasonable price because $599 would give my PC one hell of an upgrade.

MGS 4 is the only reason PS3 exists:)...Now I've always wanted a PS3 regardless of it's price or suckiness(I'm not sure if that word exists lol), I want an X360 AND a PS3...MGS 3:Subsistence is the best game in the history of games and MGS 4 will not be the exception of being the best game in the Universe...:D:D:D

Learn what an opinion is.

Also note, the MGS series arguably has the best story in a video game ever.

Not to rain on anyones parade, but MGS simply isn't the series its acclaimed to be. Its unapproachable to gamers coming into later installments, and is overly plot driven: moreso than most RPG's.

Its not a "bad" thing, I just don't see how a game which carries most of the merits of a movie is the best thing since sliced bread.

I felt the same way when I saw that. I'm a huge MGS fan so when watching the video I was like "okay, looks really awsome. It's like a really well defined Snake Eater." then he gets on his belly, and turns on his back. And he starts firing at the guy on the roof. I was like "OMG this is the greatest game ever made!", and I actually did yell something like that last night too. Then he starts crawling on his back and tosses the grenede. It was amazing. On a different note... Though I already on a PS3, After showing my big bro the video he now plans on buying a PS3 around Christmas.

i like the different perspectives they incorporated. Like FPS, 3rd person, and i love the camo suit this is defiantly a must buy. Also if they show the gameplay and other visuals in the commercials this will draw casuals in which will help increase sales.
