I wonder if this will this game will come to the PC or xbox 360.

If it sells well on the PS3, probably not.

The only way I can see this getting ported is if

a) It gets poor sales

b) Kojima's requirements of a DL BR disc (50GB) are somewhat flawed

Especially b, we'll have to wait and see if true.

As if it is true, it's unlikely to hit either 360 or the PC, based on the fact both use DVDs for games.

Were you even able to get it started :laugh: My PC started to physically abuse me after i tried running it.

I gave up with it shortly afterwards and traded it in.

Thing was I had it for the PS2 anyway, but bought it fairly cheap for the PC, hoping for higher res graphics and maybe mods of some sort.

Still no news on a European LE?

Might get announced today seeing as SCEE are having PlayStation Day in London.

I expect to hear a DS3 release date announcement as well.

Ouch I was hoping 69.99!

I thought maybe shop-to would undercut RRP which they always do, but it says "Play exclusive":((

Unhappy about that as Play are notorious for NOT getting a game to you on the release day:// They use frickin 2nd class post quite often, where as shop-to are free next day delivery.

I do want though...

i didnt like the old mgs3 will mgs4 be a little easier as the control scheme for the old one was waayy to hard for me?

The old control system has been scrapped and an entirely new layout (aimed to Westernise the series) has been implemented.

According to previews, it is vastly improved.

Our local Gamestop has an offer posted on the website, trade in 2 x Playstation 3 games ( Got Motorstorm and Resistance with a big layer of dust on 'em ) and 2$, then you will get MGS4, a T-shirt and a 'special' Pre-order DVD.

Is this a decent trade-in you reckon ?

I know this has been covered but I cant read through all 14 pages.... do you think it is necessary to have played the previous MGS games in order to enjoy/understand MGS4... as of last night I am now a ps3 owner(no games currently and do not think I will be buying anything until MGS4)

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      Russia invaded Crimea, so not sure what you are getting at. Are you saying that the E.U is like what the USSR was? What is wrong with wanting control over your own country? i bet Trump would not stand by and allow Canada to control the U.S.

    • Secure Boot

      By cork1958 · Posted

      Simple answer is yes, you will still get the Windows updates and as long as browser is up to date, you will be good. Only thing secure boot does is protect you against boot level threats and make it harder to install other OS's. I've been looking into this pretty thoroughly lately myself as wifes computer has secure boot disabled plus my other, older computers that run Linux, don't have secure boot enabled. Have seen all kinds of questions about this on the Linux Mint and MX Linux forums. Just don't suddenly enable secure boot now.
