    So the game is going to cost $30 and will only be giving you 2 hours of game play. Also it cost the same for the PS3 as it does for the PS4. Normally games are $10 more for the new gen systems.

    Does this mean there will be no difference between them? Why would you get the ps4 version over the ps3?

    I am totally getting the ps4 version.

    And yes 2 hours ish of straight gameplay but there has to be more than that with side missions n junk.

    Anything metal gear will have my money thrown at it.

    So IGN reviewed it and said you can clear it in under or at an hour but with side missions and collectibles up to 6-8 (supposedly)

    I just want to know why this is even happening? Phantom Pain comes out in 2015 why not add this to that? Why have this at all? What was the point, an experiment or to keep interest?

    What was the reasoning?

    It was experimental and used to whet the appetite. A preview of what is supposed to be an open world metal gear essentially. If you believe it that is.

    I have a hard time accepting that, there is a lot of money at play here. Why take the risk or was this all part of Phantom Pain's budget? A demo would have been more cost effective unless they think this will sell like crazy?

    Maybe but I enjoyed ground zeroes. Not saying anything though to spoil it.

    I don't know if I will get it or not. So far, probably not. It seems like they are giving exclusive stuff to Xbox again, and it's just not a Metal Gear Solid game without David Hayter. He even also did the voice of Big Boss in MGS3 and MGS4, so replacing him when he's such an iconic part of the game just ruins it for me, and that's one of my favorite series. I think MGS4 and MGR were a good way to end the series though, so it's not too upsetting for them to ruin Ground Zero and the Phantom Pain for me.

    David Hayter did not do big boss in MGS4. That was Richard Doyle.

    I'm going to wait to see if there's a Ground Zeroes/Phantom Pain bundle down the line.

    Just looked it up, and I guess you're right. Apparently he also did the voice of The Fury in MGS3. If that's the case, then they should of brought him back for the new ones. And it still just doesn't seem like an MGS game without David Hayter in there somewhere. He was a big and iconic part of the series, and in everyone of the MGS games. Either way, I still don't like that the X-box is getting exclusive stuff Like more with Raiden apparently. Raiden is one of my favorite characters too. :frowning2:

    Most likely there will be. I wouldn't be surprised if they got an entire collection that included all the games either.

    The story is light but pieces together the events of peace walker to well... I won't say.

    However the gameplay is good and the graphics on the ps4 are truly the best example of next generation I've seen.

    I only played a bit of Peace Walker (PSP died :frowning2: ), guess it should be a nice reminder of that game.

    Cool looking forward to it then! Glad to hear the gameplay is good, I was really skeptical about this whole "open world stealth" thing they are trying to pull.

    Subsistence is the masterpiece version of an already sublime game.

    I dare say the best of the series.
