More trophy and full install details revealed for Metal Gear Solid 4
Kojima Productions has revealed a few more trophy and full install details for their Playstation 3 exclusive title, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.
(Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, PS3)
Same here. MGS4 is one of those games that I just like seeing in my collection even if I wasn't going to play it any more. And of course, I was holding out hope for a trophy patch . . .
It will be a great idea to release a MGS4 Substance edition. With additional extras such as VR missions, hilarious mini games remembering skateboarding? lol and much more. Other then trophies there is much to look forward to for a old classic game. But for trophy fans i guess there is. Plus a feature is fully dead so adding substance extras would be a nice touch. But just a rerelease i guess.
im not playing the damn game again! thats just freakin rude kojima!
so because a few people may cheat to get the trophies we will screw over everyone with legit saves? so i have to start all over again and cant pick up trophies using my old saves? screw you!
no way in hell am i playing this again, and for the record it was MGS that started the trend of dudes in heels, not gaga.
It's probably just me but those long install times got me excited for the next chapter and divided the story in an episode-like manner really well, of course I wouldn't like them if it wasn't for the easter eggs the loading screens had
This is off topic some what but I played this game over 19 times beating it. I still think to this day its one of the best looking console games out. I also still have my launch copy and cannot wait to platinum this game!
Thank you, I loved MGO it was personally one of the best online experiences I ever had on a console game. Too the above post talking about a combination of Counter Strike and Splinter cell: CT they are correct. The way you could customize everything also was astounding it made the game always feel very fresh. Its a shame it was taken down I just hope a new MGO is born out of it....without Konami ID that was one thing I hated but I dealt with so I could fully enjoy the game.
I believe Konami ID came out the way it did though because PSN at the time was not as strong and greatly implemented as it is in games today. So they probably figured lets just build our own network to accompany for the games online play and purchases.
So this edition is usess for everyone who still has the game at home? Because there will be a patch that comes with everything this edition also has? Am I understanding that right?
It will most likely be a "Subistance" version with other bonuses. It actually hasn't been detailed just yet.
However with everything we know so far, yes it would be somewhat pointless to re-buy the game just for the patch. Since all current version will be seeing it. Thank god Konami hasn't turned into Capcom.
All I'm thinking is that if MGS4 can get a trophy patch after all this time maybe Sega will follow suit and do the same for Valkyria Chronicles.
I'm happy they did something about the loading times as well, shows how the code has improved for their PS3 games since the original launch of the game
It's always about money. Will Valkyria Chronicles sell more to new gamers if trophies are added?
I have both games and never care and still don't care if they have trophies. Why? I often found when a game doesn't have trophy, I play it based on my style. When there are trophies, sometimes they influence me to play the games in certain way that unlock the trophies.
Why are trophies that important anyway? I found the only real use of trophies are timestamp when I reached each chapter in the game for my own reference.
The thing about trophies with me is that when I finish the story I feel like the games "done." When there are trophies I don't feel like the games done till I see 100 percent. So if that means playing through the game 4 times, I'll play the game an extra 3 times.
Trophies can be great gametime extending devices when used properly. In trying to get them you can end up seeing everything a game has to offer, sub plots/areas etc. While some games just had stupid trophies just as much as intellegent or challengeing ones.
While your right theres not much money in it, hense the series moving to the PSP, releasing an upscaled set of the 3 could be a good way to go and a patch for people who already have it.
Old Snake's character model alone.. Defines graphics this gen for me personally, MGS4 will always be in my collection of video-games, even when the PS4 is on the go, I just love Metal Gear that much :P
I'm not a MGS fanboy at all, but just the content in-game (DLC = wallet rape), story, complex as it may be, the character development, gameplay mechanics (untouchable)... it's the whole package, minus a now defunct multiplayer.
Truly great developers and devotion. Probably the most well-made and rounded game this gen.
Skyrim shoots for quantity and size, but nothing competes with MGS4 in quality and content per square foot in a digital game world and how you can interact with it.
They're not. It used to not be an issue, but once trophies were implimented, if would work, but if you would have earned a trophy it pops up to say the save file wasn't created with the same username/log in ID.
Hmm no retroactive trophies, kind of wished now the update would be released by the end of July. I have Darksiders II set for August, Borderlands 2 for September, Dishonored and/or a game from my backlog for October. I don't think I can wait, I guess I'm gonna screw the trophies and play it now since 2013 has a grip on my wallet.
Cant wait, i had already backed up my 17 times play through save just in case they were retroactive, just so i could enjoy it all again, this game really has stood the test of time, i still get a buzz when certain events occur, or try to play an episode different from the last time,it's just so unlike any other game.
If you still have MGS4 after all this time because you (like me) thought a masterpiece deserves to be kept as opposed to traded in....then re-play MGS4 and gasp in awe that even after 4 long years MGS4 still looks amazing!
Some Japanese developers (Kojima) are ahead of their time technically, because most of todays games still fall way short of the quality that is Metal Gear Solid 4....

Great because i wasnt planning on buying the re-release, i still have my MGS4 from launch
If any game were to receive 2 platinum trophies, it should be mgs4.
so because a few people may cheat to get the trophies we will screw over everyone with legit saves? so i have to start all over again and cant pick up trophies using my old saves? screw you!
no way in hell am i playing this again, and for the record it was MGS that started the trend of dudes in heels, not gaga.
I guess I just liked the game that much xD

- it will finally be convenient to jump between chapters!!! :)
FINALLY!
and
Thank You Koji-poo
I thought save files for PS3 games are always tied to the user account that created it, or something like that?
Anywho, thanks Kojima-san!
Thanks Mr.Thom.

Kojima....I salute you!
