100 hours? I don't know if that will be right... that's alot man

[QUOTE="the-very-best"]

Weird... I don't have that option. This is GS though so I'm not that surprised. :P

fuzzysquash

It's kinda hard to spot...I circled it below. Do you have that icon?

(the Niko picture is complimentary)

LOL. :lol: Nice picture.

Yeah, I actually don't have that whole second line. Only got 2 lines, your top and bottom one. The middle one is missing. lol, doesn't matter. I'll try and seperate my thread with pictures or something. :P

Thanks anyway.

Hey, try this.

In your profile, hit the "preferences" button. Go to the "forums" tab.

Then on the "Use WYSIWYG Editor" option, select "Yes, advanced."

Let me know if that works.

lol, actually the thesis is from a friend.

She's writing a 40 pg paper on the political history of Pakistan. I'm doing her a favor to read it and give some editing suggestions (though I'd rather be playing some games).

I already finished mine last year--a 65 pg paper about Al Qaeda. *blarf*

the only complaint i have with the game is i want auto aim totally gone. id rather it just be the geow aiming system. left trigger to ready the gun. right to shoot. right stick aims. no left trigger = blind fire. oh well im sure i just wont be using auto aim but i wish you could turn it off. lets hope.

WoW Very bEst.

YOu had to copy Fuzzy didnt you.

WEll you know what MGS is going to be the best game in 08.

I pray the online will be better than Saints Row. I dont like Saint's Row online. Also I wanna see more GTA in the online, not a MP version of it in which you can't do this and that and this and that etc...

Would be kewl to see like what I heard Kane and Lynch had, cops vs. robbers kinda thing. Where one team had to rob a bank. Or maybe one team could have to try and take people in a bank hostage and try to hold out for goal amount in dollars as ransom. Like their goal is to get $10 mill in ransom and etc.... And then somehow escape without any commotion.

R* have said that the online is gonna be way more than a simple deathmatch. I just hope that they don't have to delay the game again to implement all these new features. It sounds too ambitious for its own good.

Yeah i know, but its MGS versus GTA 4. And between me and him. I think MGS 4 will be GOTY, he thinks its GTA.
SO I got your back on this one.jg4xchamp

Fission will be mailed for the both of you.

Good idea though. If Killzone looks to shape up nicely around its release (and not flop like Lair) maybe we should go for that one. I still have high hopes for it... (I'm probably the only one, lol).

damn you TVB for making me excited about this game. waiting for one totally awesome game (MGS4) is bad enough, but now I have to contend with GTA4 too?Mordred19

Yes!

And GTAIV comes out before MGSIV. That automatically means it's a better game than MGSIV. :D

You know whats the best Part about Scarllet Johanson. You know she is a dirty girl. SHe has it written all over her.
THat and those loveable knockers.
ANyway no Raiden looks corny. GRay Fox is still way better.
SO MGS 4s quest to dethrone MGS 1 as My favorite MEtal Gear is allready at a disadvantage with having the weaker ninja.
jg4xchamp

She seems to into her looks imo. But then again, I've never met her, lol.

MGS1's your favourite? Interesting... I think MGS3's the best, followed by MGS2 (despite Raiden) and then MGS1. I still haven't played the PSP version. :(

I might pre-order the game tomorrow. Will I be able to get the duffel bag, lock box, art book, ect at this point?Mordred19

I don't think so. I know you can't in Australia but I'm not sure about the US...or Canada...or wherever it is that you live. :P

I wasnt a MGS 3 fan. I only liked it because it was MGS.

I hated all the bosses except for THe BOss.

I hated all the characters except Ocelot, Eva, and The Boss.

It was mad easy

They overused videos and the whole jungle gameplay was corny.

The story wasnt MGS's best.

In fact from top to bottom MGS 1 owned MGS 3 IMO.

And Gray FOX=GOD LIKE. Im one of the few people on this site that like Twin Snakes because i thought the redone cutscenes with grayfox were cool.jg4xchamp

:o

How could you not like the bosses! What about The End? That was so ****ing awesome imo. I heard that if you switch off your PS2, change the date 1 year forward on the system, and go back into the game, The End will have died without you having to do anything, lol.

I'm gonna pre-order the Limited edition of GTA 4 tommorrow. Content looks awesome.Sure beats the crap out of "Making of " DVDs.dragon_master11

Oh, that's right. It's the LE version that has the extra stuff. :P

this game will own, can't wait for this, Saints Row 2, and Prototype, I'm very hyped for these games. :] great thread mr. ;Dclub-sandwich

Thankyou. :)

Haha, no I'm still excited for it.

But I haven't played the original...have you?

I just wanted to say thank you for posting these great information about the game. I just got two questions if you don't mind answering and sorry if you already been asked this before but do you know if Lazlo will be in this game again and will he have his radio show like GTAIII did? I ask this because he's is my favourite GTA radio character and I use to love that Chatterbox show of his in gtaIII. Also are there going to be anything in the New Liberty City that we will recognize from GTAIII or is it 100% different this time? Thank you again for posting these information.Warhawk_

Good news, Lazlo is in GTAIV as one of the radio hosts, again. I agree, he's awesome, can't wait to hear his new stuff.

LC is not 100% different. There will be similarities to the GTAIII version. It has been through a major overhaul though and a lot of new stuff has been added.

If I may add my two cents on Killzone:

despite the annoying amount of bugs in the game, and the inconsistant framerate, the shooting action had good ideas behind it. the long reload times, coupled with the recoil of the guns, gave the combat a slower, tactical feel in urban settings (the only good settings to fight in. jungle levels were bad). however, it was far from perfect. the potential was there, and KZ2 still needs to show that it has more goods under it's hood, and not just a pretty paint job.

Thanks for answering my question my good friend. Im so excited for this game.

HE CANT EVEN KILL U. HE PUTS YOU TO SLEEP. THATS NOT COOL.

SNIPER WOLF>THE END

VOlcan Raven>The Furry

Psycho Mantis>Fear

Otacon taking a wizz>Sokolov taking a wizz.

I hated the end boss fight, it was more time consuming than epic. I remember the sniper wolf fight in the snow, mad blurry and she just picked u a part if you hesitated when playing extreme.

So yes I HATED ALL THE BOSSES in MGS 3. It had a good story, but it lacked the twists that i really loved about MGS. THe best part it did do was the ending, really sad.

So yes MGS 3 is a AAA game IMO, its just that for me MGS 1 was close to perfection and MGS 2 was like a 9.7ish and it only lost those .3 points because of Raiden and Fatman. jg4xchamp

lmao.

I think you're just angry cause of what I said about Miss Alba. Woops, I mean Mrs Alba.

Anyway, I thought the twists were pretty cool in MGS3. The jungle setting throughout most of the game is awesome and it's the only one of the 3 imo that feels like you're really a part of the action. The other 2 are great of course, but aren't as immersive I think.

Hopefully MGSIV will have everything we love about the series rolled into one package.

Haha, no I'm still excited for it.
But I haven't played the original...have you?
fuzzysquash

I've played like...30 minutes of it, lol.

Btw, scrap that idea. Let's do FFXIII instead...surprised I forgot that one. Probably won't be released till mid-2009 though so we've got a while before the epic hype thread is released, haha.

Thanks for answering my question my good friend. Im so excited for this game.

Warhawk_

You and me both. :D

[QUOTE="sexy_chimp"]

Meh, I'm not really excited for it. I think GTA4 will be dethroned by another free roaming one, one that brings something new like Prototype.

*Runs away*

the-very-best

You better run. :x

No, it's OK. GTAIV will come out, completely suprise everyone, kick Saint's Row's ass, take the GOTY 2008 award and own every GTA hater. True.

It may be decent, but GOTY? I doubt that, not in the same year as MGS4 and NG2.

That's the one I was thinking of too. A "Kick-ass FFXIII" thread would be...kick ass. Kiss assier, I dare venture, than MGS4 or GTA IV :o
