Konami: MGS 4 Demo Feburary Release Is Just Speculation

Earlier on Maxconsole contacted Konami regarding news that the MGS 4 demo was due to hit PSN in February. A Konami PR rep simply commented that "we do not comment on speculation, I am afraid" which leaves us none the wiser as to when and if the demo will hit PSN.

Everytime someone rumors about a demo, they make an official statement every month that there won't be an MGS4 demo. They've debunked the rumor just as much as the 360 rumor. These stupid sites should just stop rumoring it until it's been totally officially confirmed...not "my friend's uncle's friend's cousin in Japan who works for my friend's wife's best friend's aunt at Konami said..."

Listen to the Kojima Productions podcast every week. All the news for MGS4 is in that podcast, so there's no need for all these rumors.

1.4 - Just give me the game at this point...

although a beta of MGS online would have been great. That would've built hype for the game and let everyone see what this new thing will be like.

if their smart which they are they will release a demo, look how well it did for MGS2 when it came with ZOE.

Um yeah, they got people who could care less about ZOE to buy that game.

Watch, they will include a demo of MGS4 with Karaoke Revolution. How many MGS fans would buy that one, hmm?

Damn right you would! Hell I would too. Beat the demo and celebrate by butchering Snake Eater from MGS3.

Note: I am not sure if Snake Eater is in Karaoke Revolution, don't get your hopes up.

No don't get me wrong, ZOE was a great game, but not many MGS fans would have bought that game if not for the demo.

See, I was prepared for this, I didn't get my hopes up at the original "MGS4 Demo in Feb." story, and I haven't had my hopes dashed.

I still want this demo more than anything, though, and I will be extremely happy when it comes.

MGS4 is my favourite series of all time, I've never had so much fun playing a game. MGS1, 2, and 3 were pure genius, I cannot wait for this game :)

6 - Like SeanScythe said..

They should release it as a demo with another game like Halo 3 introduced people to Crackdown.

They need to pick a good game that is a new IP. People generally have trepidation about trying something new so they should include it with something they know is good to get people to try it out.

What if'ing:

What if a level of Uncharted was included in the PS3 version of COD4?

What if a level of Heavenly Sword was included in the PS3 version of Assassins Creed? (Assassins Creed is sort of a poor example because who knew it would sell so many copies)

I'm just saying it's a good way to introduce people to good games.

MGS4 will be a system seller and a HUGE hit exclusively on the Playstation 3,we don't need a demo to tell us that,I say screw the demo,wait to be blown away by the full version of MGS4 when it drops,COD4 and AC,we didn't get a demo of either one of them on the PSN and look how good both games ended up selling!;)

10 - I don't see why they need a demo

it's not like they will have to encourage sales of the game. it will likely be one the biggest titles for the ps3 this year, probably only bested in sales by GTA IV.

Yes, but a demo couldn't possibly hurt sales; it would just mean we get to play a part of the game earlier, and how is that a bad thing?

Well its better than a "NO!", but its not looking good guys.... but while the 360 is lacking any big hitters now would be a great time for a demo.

Haha Maxconsole didn't contact Konami! Why would they speak to Masconsole...and the generic "We don't comment on speculation" follwed by "I'm afraid" shows that this was no PR person speaking, this was Maxconsole making sh*t up for HITS. Suckers.

oh well, it would have been uber sweet, but i can live... i'll have DMC4 & Burnout to hold me off... plus, well, a few other PS3 games and PSN games... no worries here, but it would have been damn sweet though.

I wouldn't say no yet. Maxconsole obviously didn't contact Konami. They just made up this story.
