I never got to go to the Metreon, but I heard it was really awesome. It's been around for quite some time too, which makes it even more unfortunate.

R.I.P., Metreon!

Horrible news I was there for the MGS4 launch to meet Hideo.

fvckin sony man im tellin ya.... the officiall ps store in the metreon was AMAZING and very popular to gamers and people alike.

every time i went in there there were a great amount of people
that store was PERFECT for advertising the ps products to the bay area as there allways is a SH!T load of people going into the metreon day in and day out

i hope this story isnt true.
i went to the MGS4 event there and the crisis core one as well as the Resistance 2 1 as well...
if true i will cry ps tears *sniffles*

From what I understand, the place was a ripoff joint:

oldjadedgamer: "I live down the street from this store and it's not because of the recession it's because this store sucks. They charge an extra $5 bucks for games even games that are set in price like the greatest hits. For the first year of the PS3's life they had only 5 units shoved in the corner playing super old games.

They never have stuff in stock... for instance, they still don't even sell PSN pre-paid cards because they are "not set up for it" at the Official Playstation Store! They hardly ever have special events there even though Sony HQ is just a 20 minute drive away from it.

It's a crappy store that they only opened because Sony originally owned the Metreon. After visiting this store many, many times... the recession is the last on the list of reasons this store is shutting down."

Honestly, now... a PlayStation Store not equipped to sell PSN prepaid cards?!?!

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle22d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
