Title: Do you think that ZOE will be worth the money??
Post by: Masenko on February 17, 2001, 11:15:41 AM
I\'m just curious, The Bouncer was so hyped but all the reviews said it was crap. Is it worth pre-ordering ZOE now or should I wait till it releases in March? Do you think it will be up to the hype?

  thanks

I wouldn\'t! I don\'t want to be pesimystic (sp?) but why bother ? Games generally don\'t sell out, if they do try another shop. So no need to preorder since you can buy it on the day allowing you to change your mind.

Also ask this lot about the bouncer a few months ago and they was all singing its praises, me included.

I mean £40 is alot for a game and its shallow to buy a game just for a demo even it is MGS2.

So I don\'t see any point in preording, I would wait until the release day and if you still want it purchase it. Im sure it won\'t be sold out. Over here theres tons of games on shelves.

Either way good luck!

I feel it will be an excellent game, the best so far on PS2...  Also the MGS2 demo is the ultimate bonus.  The new intro video found on ign pretty much confirms for me it will be good.  Good action, graphics, story, music...  looks like it has it all.

Personally, from the start I didn\'t think too much of Bouncer, partly because I was into DC at the time, but it just seemed like an FMV game to me.

The difference between the hyped up bouncer and the hyped up ZOE games is previewers have played demo versions of the game, where the Bouncer they we\'re given movies and screens but weren\'t allowed to get there hands on a playable demo till just before Japanese launch of the game.

ZOE will be good and probably great,

The point of Pre-ordering is to get the MGS2 demo. The regular copies on the shelf wont contain the demo, only the pre-ordered ones. This is sorta similar to what nintendo does with its Zelda games. If you pre order it before it comes out you get the gold cartridge, while everyone else gets grey.

well actaully it isn\'t if you preorder - its if you get the game in the first shipment and if you think you won\'t have a prob findind the game - think again - there are more people looking foward to this game than one could think and the fact it has a MGS2 Demo makes it even worse for someone to get it

but i beleive this game will be great - and so reviewers for that matter

I didn\'t know that...

I was thinking of such as MGS1 which came with SH demo.

I just assumed it would be the same.

Full 360 degrees of freddom, a whole city to protect and trash, impresive arway of weaponary both long and short range, the ability to SMACK enemyOrbital Rig\'s through buildings, Impresove story line with an impresive FMV.

Plus the added fact that you get a Metal Gear solid 2 demo with it, so what do you think mate :D.

you don\'t need tp pre-order ZOE, I did cause I just like to make sure I get a copy instead of running to 3 or 4 different stores to find one.


ALSO MGS2 Demo is going to be bundled with ZOE in package, so if you buy ZOE you get MGS2.

ZOE is going to rock, IGN guys at the IGN forums who\'ve played preview levels of the game are already putting it in the 9+ category

I work at an EB and we are getting 2 different shipments of ZOE discs. We are getting about 50 pre-order packages (the package that has the MGS2 demo) and about 30 regular orders. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME THING. If you do NOT pre-order you will NOT get the MGS2 demo disc or version (I\'m not entirely sure if its seperate or on the same disc, but I am expecting it to be seperate).

Maybe not, but the MGS2 demo will be! reviewers recently got the demo, and it\'s not crap. It also has Japanese voices because they can\'t get David Hayter!
