Kojima Productions has confirmed that Metal Gear Solid 4's upcoming patch will include not just Trophy support but full install functionality as well.
While the Trophy support was confirmed earlier, the wording at the official site suggested that the install functionality would be limited to the game's package re-release. This is not the case.
Select to give the game a full install, and you won't have to wait between chapters for data to be cached to your system's hard disc. This lengthy caching, which was accompanied by an image of Solid Snake smoking, was a major complaint by players.
The budget re-release that includes the new functionality by default will be released in early August. The patch for current owners will also be offered around this time.
Cultured Vultures: If you’ve got some feelings you want to dredge up all over again, or if spending more than 15 minutes on Twitter has caused you to become completely numb, these are the saddest video game moments that we will never forget.
Kingdom hearts was really sad at the end. The darkness when Jenny dies was shocking and sad
Mine have to be last of us, Joel's daughter. Maybe it hits different when you have kids vs bot. I'll throw ff7 up there to. On the verge of looking like some sort of love triangle then bam, death
I think Dom's wife's death in Gears 2 was sadder then Dom. Dom's death in Gears 3 just felt rushed.
The game's assistant producer says the number of discs was an issue.
Obviously they would had to remove all references to bluray in the game had they actually proceeded to make this happen. Id bet it would be something like at least 3-4 discs though.
The good news from this means it should be possible to port to current gen consoles if they were able to get it to run without the CELL.
I do remember back then how everyone said it was only possible on the CELL reminds me of todays it's only possible on the PS5's SSD.
So porting it shouldn't be hard. A 360 is very similar to modern console and PC structure.
As much as I would love to play mgs4 again, and I still hope to, I know playing it will bring back my old school Metal Gear Online days, and I miss that part of the game so, so much. 😢
isnt this old news anyway? did they not say that Microsoft were generally more interested in Rising back in the old days?

Hideo Kojima discussed some of the creative processes behind Metal Gear Solid 4 as the game celebrates its 15th anniversary.
Thats crazy.. 15 years before that, starfox was brand new. It seems like ages between those two, but mgs4 feels like it just happened.
Still amazing looking and playing game ,.. about 5 hours too many cut-scenes) But still love it,..
Awesome news this past 24-48 hours keep them coming!
That's good news.
I'd love the next piece of news to be that the patch is coming out this month. If it's the end of August that'll suck for me since I'll be moving and won't get much play time.
Bet we dont get any bonus content though
NIce, my favorite MGS game is going to get better.
