1. What is necro?

Necromanced. You resurrected a thread from the dead (wow, that rhymes!). This thread died out last August, and you brought it back to the front page for no apparent reason.

Oh...thats ..odd. It came up on my list of recent posts... I can't explain how, to be honest, now I look at it...

I like the fact that Hideo doesnt want to create a 360 port.
The playstation gave the MGS series its much needed break.
Anyone who played the ORIGINAL MGS, SNES style, will know that they weren't as popular as they are since the PS1 outing.

MGS was a PlayStation game not an SNES game....

My bad, MG as in Metal Gear was a SNES game, MGSolid was the PS1 release.
But my point was that Metal Gear was on platforms way before the playstation but they saw little success.

Wrong again buddy.

The original Metal Gear is an NES game.

The original Metal Gear was an MSX game. The NES version is a ludicrously bad port thereof (Hint, they changed Metal Gear itself into a giant computer screen which sat and did nothing, rather than a big missile launching robot)

Most of the changes to the NES version were universal (the new bit before you arrive at the base, for instance.

Kojima hated the NES version.

[2. After looking at the cutscene/gameplay videos on youtube, I've pretty much decided I have no interest in playing it.

3. I was pointing out that the reason it would need to be on 7 DVD's is because of all the pre-rendered unnecessary cutscenes.

4. I was being cynical about it because I knew whatever I said about the cutscenes, MGSfanboys would just cry blue murder at me for daring to suggest there is too much exposition and too many breaks in the gameflow for the "superior" version I've seen it declared.

5. I have actually played an MGS game, and frankly, its way, way, way too heavy on the cutscenes. Out of the 5 hours I tried it, 3 were of exposition cutscenes, 1 of 'story' cutscenes. From all counts of MGS 4, its even more cutscene heavy.

2. Well, the MGS games arn't for everyone, the cutscenes can be intrusive for some people or enhancing for others.
3.If you got rid of the Pre-rendered cutscenes, would you really appreciate having a downgrade from the PS3 to the 360 and pretty much recieving the worse product?
4. Did you really expect the 4th version in a game to have less of what it's famous for?
5. Did you really think the 4th version of the game would be any different?
