Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

Woah woah, I never said anything about there being lies in the game (but seriously, this is Metal Gear Solid, any real fan would've noticed its structure).
And that is after you learn the real truth

Well to me that hints at something we've been told previously not being entirely true, which = a "lie" ;)

I think everyone should just shutup and not post anything remotely spoilerish till release like me! :laugh: That way we keep everyone in the topic happy. Those who want spoiled can request for someone to PM them.

Not necessarily, but I would suggest to stop this here and not "spoil" it for everyone. I'm open to conversations through PM's.

I forgot about the ignore feature, no need to leave after all :laugh:

I pre-ordered my MGS 4 through a Gamestop offer and will get a T-shirt too, anyone know what that shirt looks like?

Hope It's something subtle so you can actually wear in public.

But man, I can't believe we are this close to release :D

I know what you mean. Will no doubt be a HUGE picture of old snakes face with no text and look ugly as! :laugh:

Might be something like this?

By the way, anyone know when Gamespot or 1UPs reviews are coming?

1UP Yours this week is going to be discussing MGS4 :woot:

But then again, there's the back

People would actually come up to me and hit me wearing something like that :rofl:

And a pathetic PM from MGS;

"OMGZ THE ENDING WTF LOLZ... please

I won't spoil it."

And he's talking about maturity :sleep:

Eeeek.

Video gaming clothing usually = Total fail.

Parts of the LE MGS4 guide! No spoilers, just some artwork. Looks really sweet :D (It's $19.99 on Amazon I think)

I love the pose that meryl makes :D , But havn't seen any artwork of eva anywhere ( :| not the old mama, they young eve :devil: )

Doing some searching, seems there's two shirts which could possibly be in the offer - The one you linked Audio and this one,

I mean, oh god that's horrible :pinch:

That's the Hottopic MGS tee.

There's two of them, I posted them both earlier in this thread (2nd isn't the same as the one we've just posted).

The other looked ok, but it seemed like it had "shiny" text, aka it was quite "girly".

If I had a choice of getting a mgs4 t-shirt, it would be this one.

has awesome written all over it.

That's not a spoiler in any way in my opinion. He's simply hyping up the ending for the rest of us that haven't finished. It's like saying that people who tell you a movie will have a twist in it are spoiling it. You still don't know what the twist is and knowing it's coming won't make it any less surprising.

No, but telling someone that there is going to be a twist in a film takes a away from the immersion of it in my opinion.

Sitting there not knowing much is far better than sitting there knowing that at some point there will be a twist and of course then I cant exactly trust anything that is going on in the film knowing that it will be turned around.

Not to offend, but you'd have to be pretty naive not to think that there would be no twists in a movie which prequel is MGS2 aka. The Twister.

BTW, awesome Tshirt.

Not at all, I was just replaying to the film part.

I don't think what you said was that bad, I totally expect things to be explained and for twists to happen in this game.

And I really expect a great ending for the series too, however it ends up.

GameInformer MGS4 Review!

Omg Infamous, finally!.

I've been waiting for news on the game for what feels like forever.

Hopefully he will put something up form the magazine, whatever they have about it.

I might try playing on Big Boss hard :laugh:

It'll probably be as bad, or worse than European Extreme mode on MGS2. That mode literally kicked my ass :|

Here is what Game Informer said about MGS4:

MGS 4 - 10, 9.75 - "MGS4 accommodates player choice unlike anything I have ever seen, providing you with the tools to overcome obstacles in any way you choose." "The freedom even extends to the Boss Fights." "...a landmark gaming experience that continually astounds with it's variety, depth, and intelligence."

Hopefully mine will be here tomorrow. I'm way too excited now for it. I didn't really follow it much as i didn't own a PS3 but now i do i've gone into overdrive and read everything about it. Except spoilers of course. Just need to hurry up and finish Ratchet and Clank now

    • AltSendme 0.4.2 is out.
    • 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.
    • How many other companies will follow Ford's lead? Or, have they already gotten lazy and become enslaved to AI--and now can't figure out how to get out of that mess.
    • Why would any self-respecting intelligent person follow any recommendation by Donald's GOP administration? With almost two years of fabrications, deceit, and blatantly illegal behavior, why believe them now? They had best be gone after the November 2026 election, so we'll wait and see.
    • AltSendme 0.4.2 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) AltSendme 0.4.2 release highlight: Modern Debian & Ubuntu support. The .deb package now declares compatible dependency alternatives (libayatana-appindicator3-1, libgtk-3-0t64) alongside the older Ubuntu 22.04 names, so it installs cleanly on Debian and Ubuntu 24.04+. Fixed settings sidebar header being covered by the custom title bar on Linux. What's Changed #172 Fixed #168 Addressed feat(tauri): support for modern debian (80f548d) fix(setting-sidebar): linux-only custom title bar covering nav header (fb55c9d) Download: AltSendme 0.4.2 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
