I rented this from the library recently and wanted to the the online mode. But every time I try to start the online it takes me back to the PS3 home menu.

I know you have to update it but I can't find anywhere that tells you how.

Please help.

you have to make a konami online account thats why it sends you back to the ps3 home page, but it should send you to the konami website if iirc using the ps3 browser. Its a bit of a tedious process as well not sure if they chenged it since 2008 when mgs4 first came out.

Yea I thought it was lame you have to go throughall that but it was worth itto me as MGO is the onlygame this gen that is top notch.(Single player sucked) TC, how the hell you rented a game( a M rated one at that) from a libary? But yeah, You was supposed to be led to the Konami's website from the PS3 broswer. But I think you can use you PC(or PS3) to create a Konami ID.

It should update from the menu and offer you a choice of download method. Either Peer-to-peer or direct download. Either wil take you a decade to download nat this point, your probably best going with direct, as P2P relies on the number of other users online, and at this point that cant be to many.

im afraid not. The only thing UC has over MGO is the Co op mode but I bet the next MGO game will have Co-op stuff if peacewalker had it. BTW, how was peacewalker co op mode anyway?

I've only played about half the game but it's really fun, but I hated Mgo so you might not like it. :P
