Metal Gear Fans
Just a simple question for everyone. Do you people think that the Next Chapter that comes out in the future for Metal Gear Solid will sell off the shelves by its fans or new people would turn their heads to it as well.
I believe MGS has so many fans and so hardcore that fanboyism comes into it. Sons Of Liberty was a great game but critics still crashes it. Do you think other then MGS fans would actually buy the game, or would they just pass on to it? Even if its gets solid reviews. As many people believe the game always gets a HYPE and is always overrated. Would a normal gamer go for Metal Gear Solid 3? |
Probably so. I mean...I wish you would have given a definition of the "normal gamer" that you speak of, but I think that the game will get pretty good reviews, so the "normal gamer" will be inclined to purchase mgs3. But there's always the chance that it'll suck and the "normal gamer" won't buy it.
|
When I said normal gamer, I meant a person who buys games once or twice a month. Not really a HARDCORE gamer, but fairly intrested in them.
I may be too strong about this, but I dont believe MGS3 would suck at all. Everybody in the gaming industry trust Kojima-San. So it wouldn't...... it'll probably change video games again. |
Ofcourse, every gamer trys new games, every mgs fan will buy it, for sure, if it gets lots of hype, good reviews, like splinter cell, it will be a big seller.
|
I think'd normal gamers would get MGS3, I mean non MGS fans bought MGS2, probably on the graphics and hype and stuff, but I doubt they would get the remake if it ever comes out or even if the first two MG games get redone, those would be aimed at MG fans, whereas MGS3 probably wouldn't.
And hey Makg, you got Ghost Babel yet? :D |

Neway, back on topic....... I just hope people buy it for its substance and not for the style. |
Well, I wasn't really a MGS fan until I played MGS2. Hopefully that made people fans if they weren't one already or maybe the third game will. I hope this gets more people into the saeries because many people probably don't know what they're missing.:cool:
|
(I downloaded the Ghost Babel rom, and I think it's kinda sucky...)
The casual gamer probably won't buy MGS3, then. I mean it'll be overpublicized, and the "casual gamer"'s initial response to the game's release will be "ANOTHER game like this? ehhh, I bet it's nothing new" There you go. What does it matter who likes the game or not, anyway? |

But yes anyway, why do you think that? I think it's a nice little mix of MGS:SS and MGS, for some reason.. |
I think you're analyzing this too much.
Just play the game and enjoy it, don't look too much into it. Fans will stick to their dream no matter what. A lot of people got into Grand Theft Auto, and it turned into crap. That's the only thing you have to worry about. |
When and how did the GTA series turn crap?

I know.:laugh: |
Hey, let's not stray off the topic here...why bother bringing in the GTA series? It has nothing to do with this discussion...:peoples:
Anyway, I agree with Esjay. The casual gamer may or may not buy MGS3 due to the fact that they're not into "highly publicized" games like these and/or maybe they haven't tried the first game and never will. But, I think there will be many who will rent MGS3 and see how it is...and if they get into it, they'll buy it. And these type of people could be those casual gamers who are "curious". For example, way back when MGS1 was released, I wasn't interested at all...I'm a more casual gamer. But, because of all the hype and the reviews I read about it, I decided to try it out and now I'm a fan of the series and will definitely buy MGS3. :) |
YES! I bought MGS2:SOL when that came out cos I thought it looked really good and I was right...
|
Heya....im new here...heeh.
Well, i think that people should give a chance to MGS, i know lots of people who dislike it because its BORING, but i disagree. I think they should give up what they have heard and start playing games, for those who havent played any of the MGS shame on you!. |

Anyway, who said that MGS was boring? Are you talking about MGS2? A lot of people were turned off by the second game for that boring factor (but it's most likely because they were confused by the story) but still, you're right, those who haven't should start playing the game since it's still one of the best games/series out there. |
Yeah...i mean i know so many people who say the game is not worth it even though they have NEVER played it.
Its really tyreing, i say try new things before judging. Its sad how there are still people who judge before playing. Well yeah, the story of mgs2 may had been confusing, but its one of the most respected series out there, because it brought stealth to a new level along with Syphon Filter. Can somebody give me a tutorial of this site? i was recommended this site and so far i see you can do lots but i dont know how to take full advantage of the site. Help?:cowboy: |
I believe that if people have heard good things about a game they should at least rent it to see what they think. If people rent the game they might think it is a great game and go out and buy it. However if they buy mgs3 they may be confused by stories from the previous games... (you never know). Same for MGS2. Thats why when I heard about the series I bought both games but I played 1 first for obvious reasons. I also feel that peope should be allowed free choice and whatever they decide that is up to them. Personally I think that they should like MGS but who am I to tell if they do? They may not like stealth games.
Also Blindman, why shame on evryone who hasnt played the metal Gear Solid series? Myabe they were not curious enough to try it. Maybe they dont have the right system. Who knows. I mean yes there are many people out there who havent tried it and yes maybe they should be introduced to it but you cant say "shame on you" just becasue people arent curious enough. |

I didnt mean what i said, i just was too lazy to delete it or edit it. Thanks for reminding me of that post, i never posted any posts like that after:laugh: |
I really can't think of any games that have sold right off the shelves, but I do think MGS3 is going to be popular. I've already heard a lot of hype about the game and to some that's reason enough to buy it. The thing is I don't know if I'll buy it, I mean I bough MGS but not SOL, so I'll prolly just end up renting it first.
