Was I supposed to get a bonus with my preorder of the LE version of MGS4 at Gamestop? I'm confused I keep seeing soundtracks and blu-rays, and what not. Someone fill me in.

nice im guessing MM confirmed it since last i saw it was a rumor
 
[quote name='Chacrana']Is the XBLA release improved at all?

Also, Twin Snakes sucks a D.[/quote]

I know lol, but I just wanted to show both versions of it. If everyone feels that way I will remove that version from the OP, and just keep the original MGS1 and get rid of the spoiler tags. I felt both of them up there made the OP too big. I'm not sure if the XBLA release is improved, I'm thinking it's a straight up port. MM can you confirm?

The only thing I got was the Saga dvd with my MGS4 LE pre-order.

Done.

Although than sounds funny, and I thought you were BSing until I watched the scene again.


[quote name='zewone']When was MGS1 for XBLA confirmed and by whom?[/quote]

RR posted something about in the last GGT me thinks.
 
What does MarkMan do for a living? o_O

Either that or I wonder how long he's been saving up for this stuff :whistle2:k

I could've made a down payment for a car with all that green :/

I want a 350Z or an S2000.... or a Yugo :D
 
HAI GUYS MISS ME?

Chac: How does Twin Snakes suck? I found the original MGS frustrating whenever I tried to play it, and have been told that Twin Snakes is somewhat better.
 
The MGS4 bundle might help sales if you could actually buy the damn thing anywhere. For once, people have demand for the console and Sony decides it's time to hold back with the damned things.

I'd probably even buy the $500 bundle if I could easily get one in a week or two, but I know that won't be the case. They're already up to $900 on amazon, and what fucking sense does that make? It's just a regular system with a regular copy of the game.. only thing different is the box, as far as I can tell. I wish it was like for the GT3 bundle they had on PS2, that thing was everywhere.

Oh well, no need to get frustrated, i'll just be spending $200 on the new iphone instead of $500 on a PS3. (although I could recoup that spending when I sell it after playing MGS4)

They changed a lot of the music, and voice overs. Changing the music was dumb IMO because it didn't have that MGS effect like the original music had. For the voice overs, you will notice Grey Fox, and Mei Ling right off the bat. Also since they used the MGS2 first person view some fights became rather ridiculous easy. The Ocelot battle is a great example of this. Also they took out certain quotes like Sniper Wolves "It's a bullet, straight from my gun to your heart" which was really lame IMO.
 
I liked the new music, you don't have to use the first person view, and honestly those changes aren't that big of a deal. The only people who cared were the hardcore MGS fans like us.
 
Estimate on how much MGS4 LE will fetch on ebay? Sorry fellas I think I'm going to go through the series and the LE doesn't mean much to me. Figure I might as well cash in for some coin while I am at it.

Prepared to be saying " I love this fucking game" a few times. ;)

Yeah, the new music is generic techno... I can't remember any of it. And didn't they take out the music that plays at the very beginning of the game (the first movie and the scene later on with Meryl) as well?

And my biggest problem was that there simply wasn't any way to hide if you got spotted. MGS2's AI worked in MGS2, because the levels were filled with places to hide. Silicon Knights basically said "aw fuck it" and threw in MGS2's AI and gave you like... one locker and that was it. Very lame.

And the graphics lost a lot of the grit they had. Everything was so clinical...

At the end of the day, yeah, it's stuff that'll mainly matter to hardcore MGS fans, and Rei's right - it's not awful or anything... but it's nowhere near as good as the original. That's not how a remake should be.

I'm thinking at least $150. But the extra LE I'm getting is going to my friend who's also a huge fan, but is getting the system bundle.

Yeah they did take that music out at the start of the game, and the Meryl "scene" as well it was absent. Which I was stunned that they took that particular music out, since to me it was perfect and very emotional. I was stunned that they decided to take it out, since I was waiting for it to kick on and it never did. Yeah, MGS:TTS is not awful but no where near as good as the original IMO.

If they wanted it that bad they would have preordered it before yesterday, which is when I preordered it.

[quote name='Chacrana']I'm sayin' $250 on day 1. With the bonus disc, of course.[/quote]

Fo realz?

[/QUOTE]

but a lot of the GSs are not going to have enough to fullfill preorders

anyways, it will be like the rest: hitting the high point the first couple of days ($150 - $250ish)
 
[quote name='Chacrana']I'm sayin' $250 on day 1. With the bonus disc, of course.[/quote]

I'm going to guess $200 with the bonus disc. You better do it on day 1/the midnight sale though. I doubt it will stay that high up in value. So the sooner you get it and list it the better your chances.
 
I need to add people as well and delete people on my list since it's full. a couple friends of mine are getting a ps3 soon so I gotta make room.

oh and not surprising coming from Brak.
