It contains a special edition DVD, and MGS4 GAME gift card. The DVD 'Metal Gear Saga Volume 2' revists the secret history of Solid Snake, Big Boss and the Metal
* Metal Gear Saga Vol 2 DVD
* GAME gift card (alas no credit on it)
* £5 off MGS4 bluetooth headset.
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
An article looking at the symbolic meaning behind the cigarettes in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.
Game creator Hideo Kojima is and probably will always be best-known for his creation and stewardship of the Metal Gear series at Konami, which since his departure has been more-or-less on permanent hiatus (don't mention Survive). In his almost three decades these games evolved to the point where they predicted certain problems of the information age (MGS 2), took aim at contemporary topics like Guantanamo Bay (MGS: Ground Zeroes), and ended on a profound sense of sadness about our species' inability to break the cycles of global conflict (MGS V).
It's not clear what sparked this reflection, but Kojima's been thinking about Metal Gear Solid 4, an entry that was (and unfortunately still remains) a PlayStation 3 exclusive. In that entry the player controls an aged Solid Snake in the year 2014, caught up in a civil war being fought between Private Military Companies (PMCs).
He was always ahead with this series. MSG1 taught me about the importance of passing on our genes into future generations but in a responsible way, for they are bound to what we experienced in our lifetime. Sons of liberty taught me about global control and simulation runs to test society in a grand scale, the importance and dangers of control of information. MGS3 taught me about patriotism and how that can blind you into doing things you never would have otherwise, all for the sake of politicians who only see you as another pawn in their grand scheme of things. MSG4 taught me war is inevitable and always orchestrated because it's great for the economy. Soon simulation systems will start dictating who goes to war and why, all run through proxies. Privatization of military company are already here. We already started to see how a small group of elites dictates everything that happens. Nothing is done, nothing happens without strings being pulled.
If it wasn't for the retconning of how FOXDIE works, including clunky scenes with Naomi and Liquid, MGS4 would be a perfect game. There are so many gameplay options. It felt like us PS3 owners got something truly unique and special.
Nice, i got a leaflet through the post today saying to go pick my pack up.
OMG the pre-order DVD... Just like what everyone got when then Pre-ordered in North America. Sorry EU/UK region, you're getting the short end.
The only thing that I didn't like about the Metal Gear Saga Vol. 2 DVD is that it wasn't in HD and it could have been in better quality, but it's not really a big deal because the DVD came for free once you pre-ordered MGS4 in the U.S. and you can only expect so much when it's free I guess.
I wonder if that "surprise" that Ryan Peyton is claiming to be working on for MGS4 buyers in the U.S. is a Coupon to save money off of the MGS4 Bluetooth headset just like the European version.
I'm going to be getting my Limited Edition MGS4 Strategy Guide in the mail tommorrow and I'll definantly take a little "peek" at the controls and such in MGS4, but I'm definantly not going to spoil anything else for myself before the game releases. I guess the reason why Ryan Peyton said to stay off of the MGS4 forums from now until MGS4's release is because of the MGS4 Strategy Guide being released before the game and people will be posting spoilers more than likely when they get their hands on it.
The Gamestop website has the Bluetooth headsets, but the Gamestop I work at doesn't!!!
I'M SO MAD!!!
going to get mine on friday hope they still have some left
