Watched the video, completely agreed.

/signed petition.

Seriously, that guy knows whats up. It's our responsibility as gamers to spread that video around as well as make posts about it on all gaming forums.

Did you play the other mgs's before playing mgs4? or watch the youtube vids?

I really wanna play this, but i am not enjoying sitting on my computer for HOURS not even finishing one games cutscenes.

This just sealed the deal for me.

The graphics look 10x better then the last vid i saw, these 3 diff pmc's (races) put a kind of rpgish feel on it with character customization, and plus the 256 players is just phenomenal.

I'm impressed, and this is now a day 1 buy for me.

Wow...graphics for me, at least when it comes to the FF series, is a huge part of why i love it so much...and this...just crushes me. Gooh, the screens looks terrible!

Hopefully Versus will keep the great graphics that FF deserves, b/c this is just dissapointing.

Timesplitters 3: Future Perfect (or somethin like that) was my fav game of all time.

Campaign mode was tons of fun, online was GREAT, and you could even make your own maps and share them online for people to play on.

The whole series is great, but TS3 really pushed the envelope, and i would love to see a TS4

Alright I'm downloading mgs database now.

Thanks for the suggestions guys :D

Also, my psn is in my sig if any of you wanna play some mgo sometime after i get a feel for the game.

Alright so I just got MGS4 for $13 (Yes. I know what a steal right!) and I really wanna enjoy it as much as I can without picking up a ps1 and getting all the previous games. (ive got a ps2)

What are the other ways of getting through the story so i can kind of know whats going on?

Thanks

I'm going on a used ps3 game frenzy, trying to pick up older games I have missed for pretty cheap prices, so it looks like H.S. will be a good addition.

Also thinking about picking up Ratchet and Clank Future, PoP, UT3, Soul Caliber 4, and MGS4 in the near future if any of you have any remarks about those games. Or if you have any suggestions for other cheap(ish) games please post them here.

I think Soul Calibur 4 is worth renting...not sure about owning it...I'm not a fan of those games...however.

MGS4 is an "automatic buy" if you own a PS3. If your PS3 is backwards compatible, I would recommend getting MGS3 and playing through that one first.

On the other hand, I remember the last "frenzy" I went on and realized that I didn't have enough time to play and appreciate the great games I was buying.

I would suggest slowing down and playing through one game at a time...unless you have a lot of time to spare...

At any rate, at least read the Wikipedia "canon history" of Metal Gear before playing MGS4. It will take 10 minutes or so but it will make MGS4 more meaningful. Also, realize that MGS4 is kind of quirky and has some humor in it. It's good fiction, not meant to be anything else.

Alright, thanks for all the replies everyone, I really appreciate it :)

I decided on just getting Heavenly Sword. But I still may pick up Army of Two later on once one of my friends gets it so i can play co-op.

Real quick question:

I am thinking about getting Heavenly sword for $15 and Army of Two for $13. Does that seem like good deals, or at least worth the money?

Thanks
