not by any means. i still think its an over priced pos :(

however the game looks amazing. i was very impressed and i love metal gear more now haha. i hope they make it multiplat so i dont have to buy ps3 to enjoy this masterpiece (either that or lower ps3 price significantly)

I already knew I wanted a PS3 and MGS4, I just didn't want to pay over $400 to get one... and still don't.

If you didn't like MGS before, you won't like it now. It's the same core game with some damn fine tricks up its sleeve.

I think it's a great addition to a legendary series :D. Dunno if I want that PS3 or not though. Heavenly Sword and MGS 4 FTW!!!!

Absolutely, it makes me want to play it soooooo bad! The only thing I don't know about is the 1st person stuff. I liked GRAW's 3rd person shooting system, and MGS looks similar to it - so I think I'll be sticking with that.

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?

Learn what an opinion is.

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

Except for the weak link MGS 2. Man was that story whack.

That game was hyped to oblivion. On the level of Halo 2.

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

What it proved was it wasnt CGI that kojima has been showing us as most lemmings said it was. Kojima isnt a genius for nuttin, he is the master mind behind the mgs franchise and I already know MGS4 will be GOTY 2008. Lucky he didnt show this demonstration at e3 or it wouldve been the best game of e3.

3 Years is sometimes too long a wait for games. An example of this is Halo 2 and Jade Empire.

Also, Mass Effect probably won't be ported to the PC. With Bioware's massive lineup of games across all systems, there won't be time for it.

I was planning on buying a PS3 next year anyway. I saw the gameplay videos and it was pretty cool, but to me it was just more Metal Gear with added features and a different setting. It didn't make me want a PS3 even more.

Another dev can port Mass Effect to the PC, that's how it usually works when porting a console game to the PC.

It changed my mind. I'm getting one the first day because of it. Unless of course the 360 gets it the same day (which won't happen) I'll buy a PS3.

this demo only proved what i was saying the whole time. instead of making the game for the masses it was made for japan thinking Asians only. i really find it beyond the realm of how Japanese developers and game designers think, it comes down to an inverted society who has no identity but, wants to impose it on us thru horrible gaming. its like they go beyond gaming or dont care what the masses wants, they just want to be revered whether it fails or succeeded just to say they where different then the boring society that they live in. it a complete reflection in this game. does'nt anyone notice that this is not where most of American gamers are going. we want multi-player. we dont want someones ego shoved down our throats. this game is a joke. i don't know how many years in development it took, but, its style has already been surpassed bye a mile.

i really think gaming has passed the Japanese developers bye., they wanna waste our time with boring fantasy story lines. this game is outta touch with what is going on today. as far as i can see it, psn is horrible, so, if its not multiplayer with a dedicated server good luck, because its region less, that means you 'll be stuck playing mostly Japanese or french. i really think its over for ps3 in the us. i dont care if they dropped the price down to 200 dollars. the systems blows and so do the game..

Dawg, if that was tha case, you wouldn't see Xbox owners wantin' the MGS4 game, you wouldn't see the Wii blowin' the s**t outta everybody's sales, you wouldn't see the PS3 selling in "America". Are you crazy man? So you're sayin' people don't love the Final Fantasy stories? The Devil May Cry stories? Mario? That was jus dumb. You don't represent all of America. And why isn't it made for the masses? Only a certain number of people can buy the game? Is that what you mean? Stfu. If the gaming was so horrible, it wouldn't sell, nor be in demand dawg.

[QUOTE="KirbyFan10101"]MGS really is an over-rated series. The experience is cinemtatic but the gameplay is somewhat lackluster.KirbyFan10101

you're lackluster

He's not lackluster!!...He's Extra-Hyper-Super-Duper-Extremely-Unbelieveably Lackluster:)

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 won't attack anyone you might be right...You might be wrong everyone has an opinion but MGS is worldwide famous videogame series that millions maybe even billions love, obviously there's people that hate it but it has more fans than anything...

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!!

It was a weak link to you, but to me and a 90% of the people on the MGS boards on here, IGN, and TUS, it has one of the greatest stories ever made if you can comprehend it.
