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

    • This is weird. Mythos is more unrestricted compared to Fable. Technically it poses more risk!!
    • This is a great thing, I always have issues with Verizon while inside of certain football stadiums due to the saturation and walls blocking signal so a LOS way to connect would be great. Verizon was supposed to be offering sat data this year but I've not heard a word of it lately. Dude is sending rockets into space in a cheap manner, low waste foot print and has a great product with solar/battery tech. We would be so far behind China right now if not for him and a push to get back into space.
    • illegally? Proof of that? Seems you are posting misinformation or well a pure straight up lie cause there is zero proof of such a thing. But I get it...
