Hope Konami enjoys the revenue. Might be their last as far as video games go. Finished paying off my copy. Gonna probably do the midnight launch.

Gonna take a break from Gears of War to touch Ground Zeroes before Tuesday for more resources.

Thinking of replaying MGS3 and PW until then. There's already let's play videos on YouTube, which I trying so hard to resist. I did skim through one, which thankfully didn't spoil anything. This is going to be hard.

Can't wait for my Collector's Edition Tuesday! I hope Best Buy mails it on time!

just got my copy. No spoilers, but so far hell yeah.

Does it live up to the perfect scores? 10/10 isn't a very common score. 9 is usually the best most games get. Some people seem to have a problem with it getting so many perfect scores. Destructoid had to explain why they gave it a 9.

Not sure about Best Buy but my collector's edition from Amazon shows a Sep. 1st delivery date! We'll see thoughOriginally Posted by Space Suicide

No joke, Metal Gear Solid changed my life as a kid. I know that sounds melodramatic, but it really changed my perspective on what video games were and or could be. I'm pretty sure I cried at the end of Snake Eater.
WITH THAT being said, I am so fucking pumped for MGS5. I feel like I don't really remember what the hell happened at the end of 4, and I didn't play Peace Walker, but damn I am pumped. I have a pretty hefty MGS collection too including some shit signed by Hideo in person, but I didn't pre-order any of the collectors stuff for this game. The limited edition PS4 is so sexy, I already have one though and I don't think I'm THAT crazy...but I guess time will tell.
tempus est umbra in mente
well, I don't want to spoil anything for anyone... but so far, it's the darkest game I've ever probably ever played, and that's a plus for me. But it's really story heavy for a long period there, even more so than 4...so I'm still getting through that.
I'm nowhere near a point where I can make an overall opinion on the game, but it's got me hooked.

Phew... from the reviews I was a little worried. That's usually one of the downsides in the reviews. Is the lack of talking an issue?
Throbbing Member
Will I be the only one here who is playing this on PS3? Probably.
I'm just ready to fire this sucker up on Tuesday. Currently finishing my replay of MGS4.

It'll be between PS3 and PC for me. Whichever seems cheaper at the time i can afford to get it.

Best Buy took my money so I'm poised for a Tuesday delivery on time.
Before I knew much, I planned to play this game with deadly stealth already so I'm glad to hear kills don't affect S Ranks. Definitely going for a Kill when I take out guards and soldiers, unless I fulton them.
Glad to hear the game is dark! I hoped for nothing less. This is Big Boss' last stand as a semi respectable figure before his fall to pure evil dominance. That's another reason I am going for kills. Need to fit character
Plus the end of the GZ ushers in nothing but anger by the bomb in Paz and the disfigurement of Snake. I need retribution! I need to kill to even the score.
Active Member
Yeah, we get to see the descent of Big Boss. Judging from the trailers with him covered in blood, it's not going to be pretty. I'm definitely doing the midnight launch. Shame I'm working tuesday... should've taken off. This game is going to ruin me.

11.5 hours!

Got my pre-order in. Too bad there isn't a single Gamestop around me doing any midnight releases. However they are all opening their stores an hour early tomorrow! Ooooooooohhhhhhhh....Bullshit.
Active Member
There's one near my house that's having one. So, thankfully, I won't have to go far. Spoiler: I'm going to be tired as fuck tomorrow.
House Always Wins
My Collector's Edition is coming from Kentucky. Overnight UPS, definitely getting it tomorrow.
Throbbing Member
Sold basically all of my old PS3 games this morning to pay for it in full. My gamestop is releasing their copies at 6pm this evening. Ohh man I'm so ready for this.
Active Member
Just found out my gamestop is releasing it at 11. Even better than 12.

Im 90 minutes in, and am still watching one long cutscene, with few moments of gameplay, none interesting, that people like this shit is a total fucking mystery to me.
Active Member
Damn introductions!
24.24.2.2866
Sheesh i sure hope there's more to it than there was with Guns of the Patriots and it's cutscene to gameplay ratio.
Especially with it being open world now you'd think there'd be much more to it.
Active Member
I have a feeling it's going to be more gameplay than cutscene this time around. Not very far, but, so far it's been good. Already have a theory on one thing.
Spoiler: calling a fight club/Tyler Durden moment with the bandaged man. My guess is that the face you create at the beginning is his .

A good rule of thumb for enjoying Metal Gear games is to consciously shut off your natural cynical inclinations. In the end it's worth it

Still trying to figure out how to customize mother base. It's atrocious, atm. Extremely long bridges. Not sure what to do. Like, how do I change the color? Add emblems?
BADGERS
Definitely becomes better after the intro stage. Also have to express appreciation for how well the story functions withhout knowledge of the lore.
But yeah... Mother base... Can you go inside? Wyats the deal?
House Always Wins
On the ACC menu you go to customization and choose Mother Base. Have fun.
Active Member
Thank you! Still stuck with the long bridges though. Is there anyway to fix that? Or does it sort itself out when I build more?
Edit: found Quiet...
