Anyone her NOT like MGS?

I don\'t ^^, i just wanted to see who else dindn\'t.

*raises hand*

It may be that I played it long after it was released, or maybe it is that I\'m used to PC MSG-like games, but I was dissappointed.  This is not to say I didn\'t like it, but after all that hype, it couldn\'t possibly live up to it.  I did expect more.

I kind of liked MG, but the rest of them eat balls IMO. Overrated! da,da,da da da Overrated!

In case you couldn\'t tell from my signature...I\'m not a fan of the game.

Actually im not a superb fan. I played it a lot later after its launch. Completed it too. It was OK but I found some parts fairly boring. I don\'t think it lived up to hype but I do think it was a fairly decent game.

Not very surprising to see who raised their hands there... :P
At least you people are consistent in not liking anything about the Playstation brand...

yup, you\'re right, JP.

I didn\'t own 3 PSX\'s.

I don\'t own a PS2.

gimme a break. The game came out at a time when, IMO, games were still better on Saturn. This was a huge title, and desevedly so, since most of the games around it were crap, anyways. The game get\'s too much praise from people, and I don\'t find what the big deal is.

I\'m just saying that I\'ve yet to here you say anything in favour of Sony or Playstation and I\'ve been here for as long as most of you.

Just saying that I wasn\'t surprised, that\'s all.

I\'ve said positive things about the PSX and the PS2, but the PS2 has given me very little back (yes I own both).  Just because  I own the systems doesn\'t mean I feel the need to justify my purchase by blindly praising it when no praise is deservd.

I\'ve been playing games since the colleco vision and atari.  The atari was a great system because it started everything.  With the NES/SNES/Genesis came mario, sonic and platformers, rpgs, 2D fighting and great sports titles.  Then came the PSX and Saturn and while the Saturn was a pretty bad system, the psx brought us 3d worlds for the first time, survival horror, and very impressive graphics.  There was complexity (really for the first time) in games and I was often very immersed in what I was playing.  

What has the PS2 done that is new and exciting?  Everyone is still waiting and hoping their investment will pay off (myself included).  So no, I\'m not going to sugar-coat my responces so that people feel better about their purchase.  PS2 is the system with nothing new and that\'s how I feel.

I have been around here alot longer than you. And like Watchdog, I don\'t feel the need to blindly praise Sony for no reason, especially on a Sony messageboard, where tons of people are already doing it.

I have defended Sony before, against fanboys, but I usually don\'t need to, since others do it before me.

I can\'t stand the series. I never have liked it and even gave away my MGS game. Too much damn talking..Wayyyyyyyyyyyyy over-rated...

I love em!

Oh.. I see..
Wrong thread.. I thought it said "Anyone like MGS"

I agree with JP..

I dunno, MGS kinda bored me although messing with guards in MGS2 is pretty damn fun.  o well Back to GT3

And for the record I never said I didn\'t like that game.  I thought it was over-hyped and couldn\'t possibly live up to it.

I also feel the same way about Bond on the 64 and Perfect Dark.  I don\'t feel these types of games belong on consoles.  PCs do them better and will continue to do so.  Perhaps xbox or GC will pull them off, but even shooters on PS2 (UT) did not impress.

MG is not a bad game.  It is a very slick game, very stylish too, but like I said previously, PCs are better suited for that genre.
