+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted June 6, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted June 6, 2008 Just realised from reading the manual. It makes sense to go to "Mission Briefing" and watch it on the main menu, before you start a new game! The manual does advise you to do this ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/622740-metal-gear-solid-4-guns-of-the-patriots-discussion-thread/page/31/#findComment-589461630 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted June 6, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted June 6, 2008 Haha... I was playing dead in an area with a few PMC troops. None of them could see me and they were finally moving out the area when one of them tripped over me :laugh: Got back on his feet then he then kicked me, and bam *alert*...

webcivilian Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Audioboxer you're famous my friend. I just read an article on AeroXP mentioning you and early MGS4. I'm going to Walmart after work to see if they have it or not. I also have a limited edition pre-order from Gamestop. Enjoy it Audio and keep us posted. :D Post it to digg?

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted June 6, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted June 6, 2008 ^ Heh I didn't say it ran "natively" in 1080p, I just said it choose that resolution itself, meaning by default the game is happy to upscale. I seriously doubt it's 1080p native with the amount that goes on at times. I also cleared up my initial thought of the game disc being UK PAL. It's not, it says on the disc itself "for use in Australia" - I have no idea why the disc HAS the UK 15 rating though, that is strange. Maybe just a slip up by Konami. Still on the first act guys, I'm taking my time, but it's sweet :woot: Not fought any boss battles yet.

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted June 6, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted June 6, 2008 I'm pretty sure it will run the same as MGO (1024x768) I personally think it looks better than the MGO beta a fair bit, but I'll reserve judgement until the pixel counters do their thing. Metal Gear bundle kills amazon.comWell, good job folks. We told you that amazon.com would sell the Metal Gear Solid 4 80GB bundle today. And you all listened. Thousands of you swarmed the site, got rid of their inventory in seven minutes, and best of all -- you killed amazon.com. Demand for the Metal Gear bundle was so high, that the popular online retailer simply couldn't handle the traffic. If this is the fervor in just one store, imagine how well the bundles are going to sell when they release nationwide next Thursday. Source: http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2008/06/06/metal-...lls-amazon-com/ Anyone grab a bundle? ps. I met Drebin, he's cool as! The amount of guns I've seen so far is impressive, and the gun customization looks pretty deep :D The system for gaining drebin points works really well, it doesn't hinder you with manually selling guns/items in menus. I won't explain any more though, see for yourself!

Coldgunner Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I also cleared up my initial thought of the game disc being UK PAL. It's not, it says on the disc itself "for use in Australia" - I have no idea why the disc HAS the UK 15 rating though, that is strange. Maybe just a slip up by Konami. Discs might be off the same production line then seperated for packaging, probably no different to how we sometimes get Irish ratings on our DVD's.

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted June 6, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted June 6, 2008 As usual none of these screens contain any major spoilers, however on request of Sethos, and probably others, I'm not image tagging these anymore - Direct links only. All the screens show off the player weapons menu, and give you an idea of what parts of the guns you can customize. Last screen is a good one ;) http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k46/gavd...es/IMG_1007.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k46/gavd...es/IMG_1008.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k46/gavd...es/IMG_1009.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k46/gavd...es/IMG_1010.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k46/gavd...es/IMG_1011.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k46/gavd...es/IMG_1012.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k46/gavd...es/IMG_1013.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k46/gavd...es/IMG_1014.jpg ^ Yup, the Playboy Mag is classed as a weapon :laugh: And yes, you can in fact look through it yourself!

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted June 6, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted June 6, 2008 :o First encounter with the beauty and the beast unit. By encounter I do mean just spectating for now, but OMG :| (again mild spoilers of an enemy we already know about - unless you've avoided everything MGS4 related online). I'll be stopping commentary on the game once I hit Act 2. Everything so far in Act 1 I've hinted/mentioned has been shown/made public or is known from previous games. As I said earlier I will not be spoiling anything new about the game, you guys gotta wait for that ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/622740-metal-gear-solid-4-guns-of-the-patriots-discussion-thread/page/31/#findComment-589462192 Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been some classic stuff so far :laugh: So yeah it may be great in a way I got a hold of this early, but I'm also missing out on being able to come on here and go OMG DID YOU GUYS SEE THAT?! If I do complete this before it's officially out, which should be in my favour if I'm glued to it each day till release (I was suppose to be going out drinking tonight, but I told my friends where to go, and it didn't include me :p), I'll definitely play through again with you guys. There is already many reasons for a multiple play through.
