See Metal Gear Solid 4 demo in English

Hello, friend. Do you have a comfortable chair? Do you have a refreshing beverage? If so, it's high time that you snuggle in and prepare yourself for an approximately 12-minute long demo of Metal Gear Solid 4 in English. Just a warning, the player of the demo occasionally blows through some of the dialog when it goes on a bit too long. Wow, it's just like you're playing at home!

Speaking of which, if you want to grab a controller and pretend like you're playing, we won't tell anyone. The demo starts with the first part above, and then continues below the jump. Enjoy.

MGS4 is going to be beyond epic. I wont be surprised if it melted eyeballs upon seeing the ending. People the MGS saga is coming to an end!! What a monumental occasion.



...........real shame no one will play it.

Once some action is about to happen, the video is over. UGH. The guy playing him basically poked around a trashcan for 2 minutes, and then finally when the video is about to end, he finally goes around the corner.

Must...resist...say.. old
Old snake is old.

Phew that was close anyway that is pretty damn impressive; you know is a crime that there isn't a PC/XB360 port in the works.

Now that's the Blast processing I mean Cell processing I wanted to see.

3) Ok, so he may *heart* Snake, but he can't even be bothered to properly pass a briefcase to Snake. Guess he won't be getting a date from Snake.

(so I can't type open brackets here. Bah.)

I think I actually will take the day of and possibly 1 or 2 more days after this is released to devote any and all time to it.

That's right, I'm neglecting my woman... sweet mama alcohol, just for a videogame. Thank you, Koji'Pro. ;_;
Some of the best in-game man-ass I've seen.

I'm kinda surprised that picking a dude up and dropping him on the floor still makes boxes pop out of him.

You would have thought with all the mo-cap stuff they do they could have done an animation of a guy checking a dead guys pockets.

Forgive me, I've never played an MGS game, but I still don't see the mass appeal (kinda like Halo).

What makes people go ga-ga for this game? Is it the story? It has to be the story, right? The gameplay and graphics didn't seem that mind-blowing.

Yes. It's all about storyline. Plays out like a huge cinematic. Wiki it!

I feel the same way. I mean unless you're really into MGS, this game really isn't going to appeal to you.

as i've said for months, it's a game for fans of the series. It's not a ground breaking game and it's definitely not a system seller. Most of what it does has been done better already.

Things I noticed in the clips:

Snake runs like he has a potato chip up his ass and doesn't want to break it

Frame rate dips and jitters frequently, especially during visible explosions.

Graphics are nice and crisp but certainly not cutting edge

Snake has the ass of a 20 year kenyan runner. The japanese sure have funny tastes..

background sound effects were cartoony

Dumb AI? snake stuns/chokes dude with his buddy 5ft away and he doesn't hear it despite dude gagging and choking for 60 second..

Considering how long this game has been in development and the team doing it, it only reenforces the notion that the PS3 is no more powerful than the 360. I pity those poor japanese devs for how much work they put in to get that level of performance out of the ps3.

jsn,

"as i've said for months, it's a game for fans of the series. It's not a ground breaking game and it's definitely not a system seller. Most of what it does has been done better already. "

Halo, Mario, Zelda, Metroid, DMC, do you want me to keep going? and how much have they all sold?


"Snake runs like he has a potato chip up his ass and doesn't want to break it"

Is he supposed to run like an athlete?

"Frame rate dips and jitters frequently, especially during visible explosions."

are you serious? we are talking about a DEMO here...hell, even Gears which looks great, had them on teh actual game...

"Graphics are nice and crisp but certainly not cutting edge"

If you can't see that, then seiously, there is nothing I can do to change your mind, you are blind...

"Snake has the ass of a 20 year kenyan runner. The japanese sure have funny tastes..."

American's have a funny taste for wrestling guys right? I mean, just look at all of the guys from Gears or all the other shooters...

"background sound effects were cartoony"

Almighty Halo 3 had stupid sound effects, even the npc's voices were awful...

"Dumb AI? snake stuns/chokes dude with his buddy 5ft away and he doesn't hear it despite dude gagging and choking for 60 second.."

if you were a bit smarter, you would do a little research on this title, on the last interview they say that they are still tweaking the AI...

"Considering how long this game has been in development and the team doing it, it only reenforces the notion that the PS3 is no more powerful than the 360. I pity those poor japanese devs for how much work they put in to get that level of performance out of the ps3. "


Considering how long Halo 3 was out, the quality of the game was horrendous, and to think that Bungie had put, according to them, their best...to get something as revolutionary as....video recording and a map editor?...

2 can play the same "bashing" game jsn...

The best part about this is when I read the first two sentences I was stretching out in my chair and as I was reading the second I was reaching for my Kern's Nectar Strawberry Banana flavored drink.

*Burns Finger Roll*

EXCELLENT!

Just for the little kid giving me grief last week about the japanese version over mega man i say i will only listen to and view the japanese trailer. Even though i know its rockman in japan here it is mega man though by your reasoning I should still call it rockman. Eat you nerd. I think this trailer is very new and exciting.
