MGS4 Install's and the real reason for Konami's rules

So, I was looking though n4g, and I come across a MGS4 article that has to do with install times. I was curious as to why Konami was blocking them. I open up the article and begin reading. To my dismay it was filled with a damn spoiler. I was so mad when I read it, I quickly turned away. I finally figured out the real reason for the wierd way Konami was being with the Install times, It wasnt becuase they cared about the time it takes to load, there worried about the DAMN SPOILER involved with it. I mean, why the hell does everyone make such a big deal about the install times if they KNOW that its a Spoiler. I mean, WTF. Does anyone have any ideas why the hell people are so quick to nag about something if they know why they are doing it that way. I mean, thats ridiculous.

I whole heartedly agree with your blog comment.

I agree, I was pissed off at the spoiler, too. If the bloody reviewers could have stated this after reviewing the game, a lot of people wouldn't have had the game spoiled for them.

I also remember EGM refusing to review the game, because Konami asked them not to comment on the install time (for the reasons you already stated). They were just feigning integrity, and now they look really stupid because of it.

And the idiot who posted the spoiler in the first place deserves to be burnt, too.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
