According to your logic because you're the same person it's a series. Not so. I guess MGS2 isn't in the series because you play Raiden most of the game? I guess MGS3 isn't in the series since you play as Big Boss? Same universe means nothing. It's like saying Metal Gear Acid was born on the PS1/MSX2/NES.
ElementX is right about Metal Gear starting on the MSX2. Metal Gear Solid started on the PS however and Shaka2K6 stated this too: "MGS started in PS (MGS!!! ok not Metal Gear)" Hence why there's MG 1&2 and MGS 1,2,3&4.
All teams licensed would be nice, but since that's not gonna happen anytime soon they would be better off making top priority of licensing the major teams and as many of the others as possible. And you're right. The music shouldn't be the main focus. But since I spend alot of time in menus arranging my team and customising the tactics for each match the repeated music slowly grinded me down. And turning menu music off just makes it seem lifeless.
The Premiership champions aren't licensed? That kinda sucks. I loved the fact they had all the official stuff for Man Utd in Pro Evo 6, And the Rooney model could be improved abit too. I'm still hoping they have real music tracks for menus like Fifa does. I'm getting tired of Pro Evo's elevator music.
@ 10 & 12: Sounds good guys.
But when I heard about GTA: San Andreas, I just wasn't interested. Same with GTA4. The GTA franchise just holds no interest for me anymore.
I stopped liking GTA after Vice City. Doing anything around a city is cool but it got old fast for me. I wish I wanted this game, but I don't.
Love the music you've used too, good job.
I wouldn't mind seeing the effect that has on the PS3 sales.
Edit: @ 8.1
Thanks dude. Should be an interesting read when the numbers are released.
I'd imagine they'd incorperate some of the content into GoW2 (which he's "never heard of"), like the Brumak battle. I expect them to compensate for it in some way.
..and while it does have some good points, there's a part that baffles me. "but game-play wise seems more of the same", now, this makes me wonder. What exactly was you expecting differently game-play wise? RPG elements maybe? The MGS series has always been a tactical espionage action game. I'm not sure what you were expecting from a former spy infiltrating a base to kill someone but I myself never expected an overhaul of the game-play that has persuaded millions to part with their h...
Kojima seems to have alot of love for Sony. The MGS2 digital comic for PSP, the MGS Sony Ericsson and the Sixaxis controller that Snake uses for the MK bot, rofl.
Actually, both consoles have an impressive line-up. Some people like FPS's, some don't. Some people like Adventure games, some don't. It's all a matter of taste.
I don't see why someone who owns a console cannot give props to another console and its games. And if you want a reply to your rant, do note Leshin's post.
The writer spelt it correctly (unless you commented and they edited it later). It's Andy Serkis. A small search on google and you could have put it right.
But I'm wondering how the hell this got approved.
Looks amazing. I'm definetly getting this upon release, along with GT4 for the PSP.
Microsoft own the rights to Gears of War along with Epic, right? So, why are Microsoft allowing them to port it to the Mac? And, if they haven't allowed it, how are Epic doing it?
Judging from your comment(s) you come across as a complete fanboy. Most of your comments in this story are also offensive. I'm not sure which term suits you better: fanboy or troll.
"1) Epic threats at ps3 game
2) Microsoft opens it's wallet
3) Epic trashes the ps3 game
4) Keeps GoW Exclusive"
Microsoft owns the rights to it, it will not be going anywhere without Microsoft's say-so.
"You fanboys are just gelous t...
That comment has just shown your ignorance. Stop trying to judge the game before it has even been released. Halo is a brilliant game, but Gears of War has shown that Halo is not the only great shooter out there. Give credit where credit is due.
They've got Stranglehold's (PS3) release date as the 7th of September. But didn't we have an article on here that says it's delayed until the 17th of September and according to the site Killzone 2's release date is 28th of January. Could they be taking guesses?
