This debate again ? ...it's been going around since it was announced 2 years ago or whatever.
I think the consensus is/was that Kiefer did a fine job as Big Boss, that Big Boss is a different character to 'Snake'.
Solidus, Liquid and Big Boss (In MGS4) had different voice actors.

He doesn't make the game better or worse for me, he was totally acceptable and believable (and barely has any lines compared to other MGS games anyways)

Yeh I got used to him quickly (even though he has very little monologue) and think he suits Big Boss perfectly.

Has anyone had any problems with gmp disappearing? I switched it on today and thought I had about 2 or 3 million less than I had last night, just went downstairs for 20 minutes and I definitely dropped from 19 million to 16 million when I came back up :eek: didn't get invaded, developed nothing, nothing to do with offline/online, I was just sat in the helicopter the entire time.

The boyfriend has also had his entire espionage score erased twice, once overnight and the second time in-between fob missions.

We've both also completed fob missions successfully to get no rewards whatsoever. Happened me once or twice but it's happened him a few more times.

Glitchy game??

When I booted up offline when I had no net I was suddenly put into the red in GMP. Had more than enough before I went offline and nothing real-time could've happened because again... completetly offline.

Tethered my phone to get online and sent off on some online GMP dispatch missions. They'll be done in 6 days (lol that F2P grind). In the meantime I sold some resources like plants, vehicles etc to get out of the red.

Hi Guys, looking for your opinion, as someone who only ever played the original back on the original PS, would this be worth picking up and playing through on PS4, can be got for 29.99 in Aros or would I be lost not having played 2-4?

No, it plays perfectly fine as a standalone game without the series. It ties back to the Ground Zeroes though which was like a mini prequel, was free with ps+ at one stage but sure it can be gotten cheap as well.

I highly recommend it as a stealth game alone anyway.

Yeah you can definitely play it as a stand-alone game. Well worth it.

You might get confused a small bit with the storyline, but sure even if you knew all the games inside out, it'd still be hard to stay on track
Anyway there is far more game play (and less cut scenes) in MGS V compared to the previous games.

It's going to be a pachinko game I think. Basically a Japanese slot machine.

Wow, Konami sure know how to give the fans what they want.

"Oh my God... Are they going to remake MGS3 with the Fo...it's a pachinko machine, isn't it..."

First of many soulless cash in's.
From groundbreaking stealth action to... Slot machines.
Could somebody buy the metal gear franchise from these loonies please?

Robert ninja

They'll probably sit on that FOX engine and never sell or release it to the public. Slot machines and copyright trolls. Despicable.

I don't get the sarcasm in your post.. what's the copyright trolling thing about? hadn't heard that.

Pachinko is also stupidly popular is it not?

Robert ninja

@ SirLemonhead

It just reminded me of Creative Technology Ltd taking legal action Aureal Semiconductor to the point of (Aureal's) bankrupcy then sitting on the A3D API without ever doing anything with or properly selling/releasing it to another company or the public who could actually make use of it.Copyright trolls if I've ever heard of em'.

For Konami nobody got sued but I feel like the whole situation is similar to Kojima's last spout with them, the way he spear-headed FOX Engine and now cannot lay a hand on it... while Konami do jack shyte but make pachinko machines and have said clearly they're not so hot about video games anymore.

You want me to beg, Konami? Is that it? Because I'll beg.

Playing through offline and seem to have hit a bump.

I can't seem to call a helicopter to get off motherbase :pac:
Issue arose right after a cutscene with Quiet

The one where's she's dancing in the rain

Now after its over and I seem to be stuck here.
Do I need to trigger another cutscene? I've checked her cell and she's not there.

Got around it,had to pick an old mission,the one where you assault motherbase,then choose restart mission from the pause screen.
It then triggered a new cut scene.

The new MGS game Survive looks like one of those co op Resident Evil games they release now for an audience from 2008.
Survival could have been a cool concept for it but they failed to hit the target

Jumping Jesus that game looks terrible.
The milking of the franchise begins in earnest.
Hopefully they fail miserably with this and other such releases and sell the franchise on.

If they had added this into the multiplayer for Phantom Pain I might have actually played it but yeah Konami

Penn

I mean, it's actually kinda funny. It's such a stupid idea and the biggest f*ck you to fans of the franchise, while also trying to placate them by having it happen in an alternate dimension so it doesn't affect the MGS story, but then throwing in zombies because zombies...

I'm not lying, if Konami had simply just remade MGS3 in the Fox engine and added in a few new small things, I'd have bought that in a heartbeat. Hell, they already did a bit of work on that for their f*cking Pachinko machine.

But this... this is the stupidest decision they could have possibly made.

Edit: Oh I can't wait for next week's Jimquisition
