[quote name='FriskyTanuki']:lol: Didn't you post that earlier, Rei? I guess a mod when deletion-happy earlier.[/QUOTE]
I thought I did too! I just assumed I had left the page without posting or something, and chalked it up to my bad memory...
 
I really wish in the MGS:EC they included disc 2 of Subsistence. I'd really like to play the original Metal Gear games.

I think a mod did go deletion-happy, a thread I was posting in magically dissapeared :whistle2:k

It would be like finally getting a copy of Halo 2 and playing the arbiter for more than half of the.......................... you get the point.
 
Eh, that old snake figure looks like too much of a geezer to be labeled as badass.

>_>

I would've gotten the LE if the US version came with it.
 
Ugh, I am so sick of reviewers. They are so pointless. And I hate everyones notion that EVERYONE must love it! So don't put the MGS fans on the game because they'll just give it a good review!

Well.. yea... It is the 4th one. I don't get how putting someone that doesn't like MGS on MGS4 is going to work. It's like putting a movie reviewer that hates Scary movies to review a scary movie. Or someone that hates super hero movies on a super hero movie.

It's great to have 1 or 2 "casual" reviewers but every site doesn't need to take the approach.

I dunno, I just hate reviews. Games shouldn't be reviewed. All reviews should be: Buy, Rent or pass. That's it.
 
Cutting into the thread randomly- any word on regular retail stores (Gamestop preferably, since I have my reserve there and what-not) doing midnight launches? I'd guess they would, but I haven't had any confirmations about it yet.

Earlier in this thread Jekki posted a list of all the Gamestop stores doing midnight releases.
 
That sounds like a review.

Ya, I know I was just going on a mindless rant.

I was sort of going around on what I was really getting at. Reviews can just fluster-f me sometimes. It's insane to me that these random dudes("journalists") can effect the final score and possess so much power over a given title.
It's like any moron can go and post: "I dun like teh game cuz snake doesnst have cool panztz on!!! 2/10" and put between all the high profile game reviewers and have a part in a games final review score.

Not to say smaller more casual reviews should not have a say in if a game is good or not, I just don't think they should be given as much of an impact if their site is such low profile. I think of it this way; review scores are getting way to out of hand, it seems like there are way to many reviewers and it seems like they are all trying to get the lowest review possible (without causing to much controversy) to bring more traffic. Cause if you think about it, most people will go visit a site, if it's review is surprisingly low or not with the other critics opinions (which is fine...) This frightens me, I find it kind of scary that some of these reviewers have this unruliness power when reviewing games, and can simply put a bad score to further benefit their site/magazine.

*cough*egm 4/10 AC review*cough*

It's like when friends dramatize something in order to get a rise out of their peers. Such as stating that a movie like the Lord of the Rings, is "The worst thing ever!" When clearly it isn't the worst thing ever. It may not be in your same taste range but just stepping up to say it's the "worst thing ever" is just a mindless tangent in order to get some attention.

Maybe it would be way to much to ask for, but wouldn't it be grand to see a site like Gamerankings divide their scores into different categories? Like, here is the review for people that LOVE MGS: ___ and here is the score for the casual gamer: ____.

I think critics are trying to hard to be similar to movie critics and I don't think games can be rated like movies.
 
fuck that shit.

That's why us Americans are paying 80 fucking dollars for this piece of shit because we are paying for the invisible snake figurine.

I hate this shit. Like when Assassins Creed came out Americans got this peice of shit figure that was the size of Garey Coleman's shlong and then Europeans got a figurine the size of ShaqFu's balonka-gianganto-wiener.

It sucks cause I want the collectors edition but I REALLY don't want to pay almost 90 bucks after tax. Maybe if I was thrown some sweet MGS figure it'd be easier to throw down half a weeks paycheck.
 
[quote name='hhhdx4']LOL the second time in history European gamers are treated better than American gamers.[/quote]

Haha. That is pretty much true.

I would be all over this edition if it released in the US.
 
there is nothing about WTF about European getting the superior version. They got the better version of Zone of Ender 2, and their MGS3 includes all 3 disc.

Also 99 Euros is a lot more than what we are paying.
 
where are u guys getting MGS4?
im still on edge between the CC deal with the strategy guide or gamestop's LE set.
i dont want the LE if the game and blu-ray dont have their own cases. lol can anyone confirm if theyre just inside the metal case like gears of war limited edition?

I think it does, they're pretty legit in my book...

Care to back up why not?

It's a pretty well known fact that game companies pay Famitsu for good reviews and that their reviews are mostly just fan-service.

I do agree that Vagrant Story deserved a 40/40, though.
 
Honestly I'd be surprised if Famitsu didn't give it 40/40. Their reviews are a little wonky at times but whos isn't? It's still interesting.
