Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Discussion Thread

They should have a fanboy greasemonkey script that can detect fanboy rambling and turn the whole block of text into "sexy time". :laugh:

Just remember to turn that script off after you get the game, or you'll be wondering why half your posts say "sexy time" :p

"Hey guys I love when Snake does sexy time in MGS4!" :woot:

(more like when Naomi does sexy time... :drool:)

Alright one thing guys, I havn't been following the thread closely much but how do you have the game already? Sorry if this has been answered or is too obvious :blushing:

Oh, that's just Audioboxer cleaning out Ebay :laugh:

Guys in preparation for tomorrow (I think some of you are going to get the game), READ THE MANUAL.

First game I'd really recommend you do - Controls have changed vastly from prior games, and you'll not know how to do some of the cool things you can unless you read.

Oh God, I need to find a way to play this game. I've got my MacBook, and my PS3, and an old (really old) computer. It doesn't have a mouse, has 200MB RAM, some old AMD rubbish CPU, and a noname GPU, and XP SP1. It also has no USB or Ethernet. I happened to have a WinTV PVR-250MCE with me, and after burning multiple CDs, I have about 10FPS for about 15 minutes, before the capture software demo dies (it's AMCAP - based off the Microsoft SDK sample. Why charge for it?!). Oh, and I've managed to make a composite audio -> 3.5mm adapter, so the audio's running through GarageBand.

This is not an optimal playing experience. I need to get ahold of a DVI monitor from somewhere.

That said, I do have my PSP. I've just got to pray MGS4 is Remote-Play enabled (doubt it. Heavily)

Does the game come out tomorrow or Thursday? I thought it was 6/12.

For me here in NZ, yea. it's currently as of this post Wednesday 11th @ 12:35 lunch time here in NZ so this time tomorrow I should get the game

I just picked up my copy after work today. Just about to put the disk in the PS3, hopefully the install doesn't too long, I wanna play it now :p :laugh:

EDIT: The installer is cool, (old) snake lights up a ciggy while he waits :p

EDIT: Probally should of put that in spoiler tags..opps

Do you think there's any chance that Rogers Video will let me get it on Wednesday at 11:00PM when they close since they don't have a midnight launch? :unsure:

I guess it doesn't hurt to go ask them because Rogers Video is literally 1 minute from my house on foot

    • It doesn't matter if you didn't directly hear it from person X or Y. Every one of your statements comes straight from the racist, skinhead, anti-immigrant, be afraid of everything, "they are all taking our jobs", etc. etc. mouthpieces. That's where Farag and Putin heard it from too...and used it against the UK. So, while you keep disavowing the people who publicly peddled that position, you keep proving over and over again that those lies influenced you into being tricked when the Brexit vote came around too. In fact, your final sentence makes it crystal clear that it was the racist/anti-immigrant lies you fell and voted for, since you stated that you didn't have an issue with the economic trade issues with the EU. Ahem. To be clear, all of these LIES are EONS old, mate. They are the same fearmongering lies peddled to the same ignorant, gullible cowards by the same charlatans, snake-oil salesmen, and would be demagogues who've been doing this since caveman Ugh lied about his slightly different neighbor in order to steal his land. And, finally, you answered your own previous question. The reason that the EU isn't clamoring to bring the UK back is that they have had enough of people who would rather shoot themselves in the foot than get over their "insecurity issues". It's the same reason the entire world is moving away from the USA as fast as it can...
    • Onkyo Dolby Atmos AV receivers are really solid deals by Sayan Sen Recently we covered great deals on several soundbar models from the likes of Sony, JBL, Samsung and others for really good prices (the lowest in several months). Aside from that we also reported on the Edifier S3000MKII, a hi-fi two-way bookshelf monitor that's available for only $800. Today we bring a list of AV receivers from Onkyo that are available at great prices including the Onkyo NR7100, RZ30, and 8470 (purchase links under the specs table down below). The Onkyo TX-NR7100 and Onkyo TX-RZ30 are both 9.2-channel AV receivers designed for immersive home theater setups but they occupy slightly different tiers within Onkyo’s lineup with the RZ30 positioned as the more advanced model. The TX-NR7100 is a THX Certified 9.2-channel receiver offering up to 100 W per channel (8 ohms, 2 channels driven). It supports Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and IMAX Enhanced formats, with flexible configurations such as 5.1.4 or 7.1.2 speaker layouts. A key highlight is its built-in Dirac Live Room Correction which should help optimize sound based on your room and its acoustics. In comparison, both models share several core capabilities though the RZ30 is geared toward enthusiasts seeking more precise calibration and system flexibility, while the NR7100 is positioned as a slightly more accessible, value-focused option with strong all-round performance. The technical specs of the RZ30 and NR7100 9.2 AVRs are given in the table below: Specification Onkyo TX-RZ30 Onkyo TX-NR7100 Power Output (FTC, 2ch driven) ~100 W/ch (8Ω, 20Hz–20kHz, 0.08% THD) 100 W/ch (8Ω, 20Hz–20kHz, 0.08% THD) Dynamic / Peak Power 9 × 170 W (6Ω, 1kHz, 1% THD, 1ch driven) 220 W/ch (6Ω, 1kHz, 10% THD, 1ch driven) Frequency Response 5 Hz – 100 kHz (+1/-3 dB) 10 Hz – 100 kHz (+1/-3 dB) THD 0.08% 0.08% Room Correction Dirac Live (full bandwidth) Dirac Live (with AccuReflex support) Immersive Audio Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced Speaker Layout Support Up to 7.2.2 / 5.2.4 / 9.2 processing Up to 7.2.4 / 5.2.4 / 9.2 processing HDMI Inputs / Outputs 6 inputs / 2 outputs (eARC) 6 inputs / 2 outputs (Main + Sub/Zone 2) HDMI 2.1 Support 8K/60, 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, QFT, DSC, eARC 8K/60, 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, QFT, DSC, eARC Video Formats HDR10+, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3 HDR10+, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3 Streaming / Network Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Bluetooth, DTS Play-Fi Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Bluetooth, DTS Play-Fi Get them at the links below: Onkyo TX-RZ30 9.2-Channel AV Receiver: $797.00 (Sold and shipped by Electronic Expo) Onkyo TX-NR7100 9.2-Channel AV Receiver: $699.00 (Sold and shipped by Adorma) Onkyo TX-8470 2 Ch Stereo Receiver: $449.00 (Sold and Shipped by Adorma) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • A different thing with Russia. When you say is it better, depends on things. It is better that we don't have the E.U making rules and laws that have nothing to do with them. Is the trading part better? No, that is really mucked up, but then we knew that was going to happen and we would have make agreements, like we do with other parts of the world. Freedom of movement is certainly better, but could be improved, we still need more control over our borders. do you live in the U.K?
