Not surprised. When the game was conveniently missing from Konami's 2007 release schedule it was pretty much assumed this game wasn't making it for 07.

That doesn't seem unlikely. MGS4 better be worth the wait.

Ya know, they probably will delay it. They haven't released any gameplay footage yet that I know of.

Then how come when cows listed PS3 games for 2007, this was the main attraction ? As i said PS# only has Lair, R&C, and HS this year, its lineup is laughable

They say it's still speculation... I'm holding out on this one based on sheer hope. I know Kojima needs time to make the game incredible, but it's only natural to want to have my cake and eat it, too.

There's a lot to keep me busy on my PS3, still more to keep me busy on my 360, but none of that's Metal Gear.

Not surprising.  I don't expect any of the big hitters for the PS3 to hit until next year.  Gives them time to make it even better. :)

This is as bad as the "FFXIII to 360" rumors.

Until its official it means nothing..

I think it's a smart move on Konami's part. If they release MGS4 alongside Halo3 and GTA4 it'll get absolutely crushed.

I've been flamed many a times for saying it won't be out until '08, with release dates from July to November of this year quoted by various cows.

So true, people forget that not only PS3 games have been delayed, so have Wii and 360 games.  I think SW has affected many peoples mentality, they forgot that games release dates are determined by the devs and are delayed often for various reasons ranging from, picking the perfect time to launch to polishing up the game.

Maybe because not many games are hyped as heavily as system savers as MGS and FF. Cows are forever telling us wait for MGS to come out for a huge boom in sales (the same way they said it for VF5 and MS but then when sales continued to drop rather than increase claimed they'd never said any such thing). Halo 3 has been delayed big time, but there have been other games to fill the void and the console continues to out sell the PS3 (and continues to get basted by the Wii with no games lol) and so the Lems aren't as desperate.

they should make a game for PS3 where "waiting" is the main gameplay element. Ps3 owners (like myself) would be pretty good at it.

selling better in america, everywhere else is wii and ps3 all the way, asia hates MS and europe is sony land. but the planet is being swamped by wii thats all there is to it. if the wii outsells ps2(wii's adversary, nintendo were the ones who said they werent competing with ps3, 360) then it is winnar.

sigh....no one EVER listens to me. Do not fear though, anything past March 08 and i would have to choke Kojima out my self. LOLZ j/k but seriously a delay would only make this game better. I say patience is a virtue. Not only that the next new trailer shouldnt take long to show.

I never once expected MGS4 in 2007.

However that's not to say MGS4 couldn't make a nov/dec '07 release,but it seems very unlikely.

It wouldn't really bother me personally. I will have a full plate.

Upcoming exclusives - Lair , Warhawk , Heavenly Sword , LBP download , Ratchet and Clank Future , and possibly Uncharted Drake's Fortune this year plus I have Resistance to get to this year because I don't have a ps3 yet.. Throw in Ninja Gaiden Sigma to that mix too :D

Other games - GTA IV , DMC4 , Assassins Creed , Stranglehold , etc. They will make cows very happy and they will all help push ps3 hardware regardless of them being on other platforms. Especially GTA IV.

 If anything , it just makes ps3's possible exclusive 2008 lineup unbelievably strong. Imagine Eight Days , Killzone , White Night Story , Tekken 6 , MGS4 , FFXIII , Resistance 2 , Wipeout , Wardevil (2 systems sellers in that group) and who knows what else will be ready ? What if the ps3's biggest system seller (GT5) also hits in 2008 ? Do lemmings and sheep really want to go up against this lineup?

nope i didn't. it took awile for mgs 2 to come out and there was a huge gap between mgs 1 and 2 for release dates now they have mgs 3 on the ps 2 and took less time now there using a new hardwere just like mgs1 to mgs 2. so no did not expect it and also the post i made above explains another reason.

Halo 3 has been delayed big time, but there have been other games to fill the void and the console continues to out sell the PS3 (and continues to get basted by the Wii with no games lol) and so the Lems aren't as desperate.

Actually the 360 doesnt outsell the PS3 worldwide, only in NA.  Using the latest NPD for NA and Japan in March the PS3 outsold the 360 by 60k.  Thats not even counting Europe which is far from a huge 360 purchaser.

I am not gonna comment on what fanboys claim but the truth is the PS3 does not need "saving".  It is selling fine, especially when you look at what is available software wise and thats nill.  PS3 fans are just waiting for a hot sequel to their favorite game, not a savior just like 360 has been hyping Halo and Forza for ever.  The PS3s top games so far are the new IPs Motorstorm and Resistance.  They are good but everyone loves a sequel with a fanbase. 

What you forget is the 360 is outselling the PS3 only in NA and only by a small margin.  And then when you look at the fact that the 360 has a years worth of games and its biggest game since Halo on an MS console (GEOW), and it only beats out the PS3 by a little in its home base is far from astonishing. 

There are plenty of other hyped games come out this year like Drakes, R&C, HS and others.  MGS and FF are not meant to save the PS3 because what made the PS2 successful was variety.  That is the same thing that will make the PS3 great.  Not the dependence on one or two games or genres.

So cows are the official news barons of release dates for PS3 games now? The release date on MGS4 was never released by Konami or Kojima. I think what Kojima said is... "it will come out when it is done." Just like any quality game developer should say.

Ya know, they probably will delay it. They haven't released any gameplay footage yet that I know of.

Yes they have. The TGS 06 footage was captured from gameplay.

Did anyone expect it to come out in 2007? Honestly?

Looks at the PS3 I won in a bet and then later sold to my brother. Yes there are some idiots who did think it was coming in 07 :lol: 

How are they idiots? Kojima even put at the end of his trailers "Coming 2007". :|
