Konami is apparently hiring developers for a new Metal Gear series: http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/03/20/konami-hiring-for-brand-new-metal-gear-series

It's pretty obvious what Konami is doing here.

Oh wait, no it isn't.
My guess: kojima wants to be done with metal gear. Konami disagrees because they're floundering and want to milk it. He leaves. They publically post jobs about a new metal gear series as a tiny 'screw you'.

There's no way a new MG series will be any good without Kojima. The only possible exception might be Rising 2 if PlatinumGames agreed to do it, but that would be a sequel, not a series.

 
Yeah and this is the final home planet too. There's 4 hours so I hope we still win.

EDIT: Scratch that. 42 hours!!! Wren and crew, want to play some helldivers tonight for double xp?
Hell yeah, I was about to dislike Mild's post since its a week day and some people have to work. But 42 hours?! I am in. I still need to finish Hardline but I can do that Saturday too I think...

 
I would hope you dont need it since every purchase is tied to your rewards account. I think I threw mine away even though I know better.
While this is true, having the receipt saves a lot of time and makes things easier. Otherwise you'll have to remember when you made the purchase so the employee can sift through your account to find it.

 
And just like Sine Mora, I cant get any better rank than a D in Soldner.  I know I have to upgrade my ship and I havent played more than 3 levels yet but looking at all the scoring systems in this game makes my head spin!

It was my last purchase before Hardline. It cant be hard to find something two purchases and a month ago. But I hear what you are saying. I can just look up the release date and tell them. I will look for the receipt first though.

EDIT: Vig, can I call customer service and get a price adjustment too? Or do I have to do it in store?

the real question is: why isn't konami milking the rest of their franchises? where are my contra remasters? Or gradius vi?

If you bought the game in-store, you have to go to the same store to get the adjustment. If you bought it online, you have to call 1-888-BESTBUY.

 
Count me in, I'll try to roll with psnot crew tonight for a while.
I won't be on until 9pm central so hopefully some of you guys will still be playing. Played a quick easy mission just in case I don't make it.

So far we seeem to be losing but hopefully everyone logs in and conquers the bug planet. That's pretty much the last trophy besides the huge 100k, grind that only Jeff would do, right?

Speaking of which we should dig in to that awful virtua tennis grind next week.

That and Rank 25. Also there is one that says to complete a planet in a successful Galactic Campaign. It is different from attacking a home world?

I think it might have to do with winning the war with all races?

I'm down anytime. I got most of the trophies besides all the minigames.

I was able to find my receipt this morning before I left for work.

I guess I should get back $17 and change. Might print off a $5 coupon and try to price match Metro Redux.

 
He is in New York so his taxes will be way higher than yours. Just in case you are thinking that is more than you thought it should be.
Yeah but I didnt think it was anywhere near $17 even. I am thinking I paid $47.99 and the sale price is $39.99. Thats $8. But I guess the price we would pay is only $31.99 with GCU so 47.99-31.99 is $16. So now I see why he said $17. Good deal.

 
How is it $17? Do the math for me please. I am not awake yet.
I just did the math and I am not super awake but..

I paid $47.99 + $3.54 in tax is $51.53

I could buy it today for $32 with GCU ($39.99 - 20%).

So $32 + $2.36 in tax is $34.36

$51.53 - $34.36 = $17.17

Rounding error on my end I think. $17.18. Game is $31.99 not $32.

Liked for correct.

Just got a really good rep to take care of it for me this morning. Thanks vig!
 
You guys have all the trophies, but I don't. I'm hoping you'll help me get some of the ones I'm missing. Like drive over a bug with a vehicle, destroy a bug nest with something other than the nuke, etc.

I had UT winning a game, SMU winning 2, and Baylor winning 2.

That along with the LSU and Purdue choke jobs made for not such a great day.
Good thing about the tournament is the first round standings almost never carry through to the later rounds because of the point increase per game. Don't give up!

I would, but I'm really trying to catch up with tyler on TT and I don't want you dicking up my helldivers score. Sorry!

 
The Labs in Flame Over are so much harder. I think you have to start at the beginning to save up time and lives and get equipment. Fortunately I'm finding it fun starting from 1-1 and I'm getting through the Executive fairly consistently now (though in my last game I was running around trying to find a hidden bit of fire and wasted huge amounts of time before remembering that there's a thermometer to help your locate hidden fires. Doh).

 
I also have no idea who the following are in our bracket pool.

  • Jordano316 "Church of Braketology"
  • CinnabarSin "The Starship Mormontology" (great name btw),
  • skyye06 "Weep for Kentucky" 

Spill it y'all!
