6 million actually, world wide.
1 million in Japan, Japan aren't fond of MGS4
2.5 million in Europe, only England is interested in it
2.5 million in America, I don't think alot of them are going to buy it on the day.

Disregard this, it will make 1 million sales with 11 million consoles now.

But, asshole time.

  • Otacon will betray Solid Snake, just like how Hal betrayed David. Don't cry out at me because this has been planned since Otacon's introduction to the series.
  • Ocelot left something just incase Liquid takes control of him, so Liquid's plans will backfire. Ocelot has been confirmed for pro-Solid Snake's attitude because he is gay for Big Boss. In the battlefield, your enemy is your greatest friend.
  • For those who didn't play the PSP games, Big Boss is one of the founders of The Patriots. He was offered a place to form a group by Ocelot with another third party to actually form the The Patriots.
  • Big Boss will be the final boss or present, even if barely living he will challenge you to hand to hand combat.
  • Solid Snake discovers he lived for the exact same purpose as his father and his brothers, but accomplished it without terrorism, he will make a speech about this near the end.
  • Big Boss may actually have a legit son to EVA. When you're sterile, it doesn't mean you're 100% incapable of having a child.
  • The ending will involve Sonny looking at graves. It will be a cliche send off to the heroes and a throwback to Metal Gear Solid 3.
  • I am an asshole.

Hal is a sinner, as seen in MGS2. His design in MGS4 is kind of sinister.

I come again, ruining a game I am kinda looking forward to:

Halo 3 runs at 640p right?, everyone was complaining over that weird resolution. MGS4 runs at 576p. What.

Simpsons have done every joke in existence making it hard for other shows to create original ideas, see: South Park;s episode.

That's where it came from, it's not saying the Simpsons have done it; it's just another way to say "it's been done".

I know. Just didn't want to be Captain Obvious and say "You took that from Deus Ex!!" so I used a phrase and left the rest implied.

I was right about the audio, 9 hours of cutscenes?
Oh boy, I cannot wait for every character's backstory.

I like the choice of which side you can fight on in skirmishes and the concept that the warzone is not because of your actions.

I think I'll just wait until all the cutscenes are ripped and posted in a format I can stream.

Then I'll put it on my TV and watch it like a film.

Halo 3's native resolution is 640p. MGS4 supports 1080p :?

Halo supports 1080p, it's native resolution is 640p.
MGS4 barely looks good at 576p. Oh and I do have a PS3.

Oh and for your information I was pretty much right about the first day sales, it sold 1.4 million with 12 million consoles worldwide. So if there was still only 6 million consoles it wouldn't even reach that limit, and the game would be considered a flop, but it still is anyway because it's still hardly blockbuster exclusive compared to the likes of GTA4 and Halo 3. People lost interest thanks to MGS2, no matter how good I think MGS4 is.

Halo 3 supports SDTV.. and runs native in 640p, no higher.. The 360 Elite supports 1080p resolution, but there is no such thing as a 1080p game for the 360, just HD-DVD's that you can watch in 1080p 1.2 HDMI (that's not even full HD)

DOHOHOHOHOHOHO I think you're a stupid man, you're trying to prove me wrong yet the exact same thing applies for MGS4 which is on a console that can't even handle 720p because of shitty outdated hardware Big Boss is still alive and Ocelot wasn't controlled by Liquid all along, Sunny saves the day and Raiden gets a new real-looking body and finds out that Rose and Campbell were playing pretend marriage to protect Raiden and Rose's son did I mention you were working with the bad guys all along?, also the mutation in Foxdie ceases to exist thanks to the new Foxdie planted in you by Drebin which is killing off the old virus, even if the new one will mutate Solid would be dead by then. ps. Sunny makes good eggs at the end.
