PSM3's Metal Gear Solid 4 preview, pt 2 (spoilers)

Ten years on from Metal Gear Solid on Psone, MGS4 feels like Kojima coming full circle, having previously insisted this would be his last Metal Gear game - a claim neither repeated or denied during PSM3's time in Nasu. "I want people to look back on themselves, to reflect on what has happened in between, and how you have aged", claims Kojima.

In that respect, MGS4 is a humbling, almost poignant success. The truth is, it makes MGS look like a crude artefact from an ancient age, echoing Kojima's theme about the thrill, and dangers of technological acceleration. In that context, two months is hardly that long to wait for the most anticipated next-gen game yet.

Yeah I'm not reading any more previews, I've seen enough and I DON'T want it spoiled for me D: I'll read the review scores, see if it's as amazing as these make it out to be (which I don't doubt), and then put in my pre-order.

Dude its MGS4. Any score lower than a 9 is an embarrassment.

if it wasnt for biased reviewers

id say MGS4 could reach a Metacritic score of at least 97, maybe even 98

due to the aforementioned biased and possibly "bought" reviewers- it will score more along the lines of 94-96

MGS rules baby

PS3 bias reviews seem to be dying down. Plus its MGS. Given the power of the playstation 3, i really don't expect MGS4 to be anything less than a mind altering experience for most reviewers. Such experiences can overcome any prejudice

Eh maybe some ignorant fanboys need these spoilers due to them not wanting to pick up a ps3 for it.

12 - To all those b1tching about spoilers:
What spoilers are you talking about? Talking about gameplay? It's not like he is spoiling the story or the action sequences. For all the stuff that is "revealed" (all of which has been revealed before), there is a metric f**k-ton of things left unsaid. Think about it. Kojima and Konami are telling all the journalists that this is okay to tell people. If this is the $hit that Kojima is saying is okay to talk about, the stuff they aren't talking about will be amazing. Also, haven't you noticed that they are only showing and talking about the first part of the game? They aren't spoiling anything.

EDIT: Also, I'm almost positive that I've read this somewhere else recently like this is a cut-and-paste job.

EDIT2: I found it. This was on GamesRadar three days ago. They give credit, but it's exactly the same article. That might be why this isn't really a spoiler for me.

You could argue watching any of the videos/ trailers thus far have been spoilers. Sometimes a little info is ok, and as above poster has pointed out, there's so much more we're not being shown or is being talked about.

i've stopped reading MGS4 previews ages ago

its a known quantity, so why risk spoiling anything

even if its just a new gameplay mechanic that gets revealed- i want to discover it for myself

i already hate myself for watching all those gameplay demoes and reading all those previews
