Konami\'s statement on the release of MGS2.

If they do change the game I wont buy it...

what movie????!!!

they didnt can \'collateral damage\' or whatever its called,  did they?

this will piss off lots of people.

The movie is not \'canned\', it\'s been postponed in light of what\'s happened.  It\'s pretty likely the same will happen with MGS2 and a number of other games, but it\'s not been confirmed yet,.

And out of respect for those victims of this tragedy, we should just stop *****ing about delays and we should instead stop to appreciate what we haven\'t lost and what we haven\'t had to give up.  There are worse things, that much is certain.

well said antiquity.

although i agree with Antiquity,  i dont think complaining about delays is hurting anyone..i am thankful that nothing happened to my city and or my family,  but it still upsets me that these type of events will get games and movies delayed or altered..which is pathetic because they show worst things in the news,  over and over again.....

don\'t let this sh!t happen,
M$ might delete the twin towers from their flight sim, but why?
What\'s next, congress will ban video games???? siting realistic/violent content as training simulators for terrorist??
Are you guys going to let a bunch of goat-fu@kers and old men in congress tell you what is good for you or dictate views to you?

Your a dumbass, for one microsoft is getting rid of them because they feel its right, they have a heart unlike you selfish assholes, and how is congress dictating anything with games, its the game makers that are changing everything, stop being so selfish, countless people died and all you can think about is how games are getting changed:rolleyes:

I never said they are at this moment, but they might. Stranger sh!t has transpired. I\'m not selfish, i\'m pointing out things that seem overboard...

Absolutely nothing seems overboard in light of what has happen

Obviously you can not come to terms with what has happened and what our future holds

If you think the latest events were horrible, there is a pretty damn good chance the real horror has  just begun.

What\'s even sadder is the inability for some of you to just sit back and stop *****ing about petty **** like the delay of a video game 2 days after a horrific event

the possible delay shouldn\'t even be a concern of yours at this moment

• I hate MGS.
• MGS2 is terroisim and NY. Does any of this ring a bell to you guys? It would draw negative critisicim and isn\'t the brighest time to release a game as such.
• With all this recent stuff, we can expect things to change for a few months.

I dont think it will ever be the same, this was just to serious of an event

The terrorists in MGS2 arent even Arab thjeir russian correct? I dont seee the problem......if the terroerist were arab then yes....But I Would buy it just to shoot each one dead!  I am still going to buy it becuase I have been a fan of the game since the beginning............

It is nearly impossible for me to recognize just how very pervasively this tragedy has affected me (and I can promise I will *not* fight with anyone on this forum that would like to argue otherwise)...but I know it has, and that its effect is deep and permanent.  However, MGS2 is a videogame...pure and simple.  Yet, in its conception it could be, today, more than its creators might have had reason to initially realize.  

Konami is ditching out by postponing the release of MGS2.  What\'s total pussy-bull**** about this is that America is at a uniquely all-time high in its desire to smash the living **** out of terrorists!!!  So why not give them a videogame that would let them do it virtually, if in no other way???!!!  We have a society that, all the way up to the very President, says, "Take every terrorist mother-****er out!"...and the company that would give us the outlet that our psyche cries for says, "Let\'s wait a bit"  WTF!?!  Are they catering to the children???  Sorry, I\'m 36 and MGS2 has a "M" rating...so I don\'t buy that argument either.  Come on, Konami!!!  Give me my chance to release my anger!!!!!!!!!!   :boom:

i am suprised Counter Strike hasnt been banned....dam why MGS2...........

Well, it\'s supposed to be a free country. That would pretty much be compromised if they were to ban certain videogames IMO.

Im not suprised this happend. But Im not shocked or dissapoint either. I live in europe so will the european release be affected? Think not! I\'m getting it for my import anyway

but it is bad news for sony, now their crowd puller has been removed close from xboxs launch. It will hurt thme seriously!
