Oh and Kojima didnt say 9/11 directly affected sales he said it had an impact. And I agree with him there. Sure it probaly was barely a factor but to say the 9/11 tragedy didnt affect sales at all is ludicrous.

Still.... I disagree with that. Sure 9/11 hurt the game a bit on the
developing side. He had to cut out or rearange some latter part
of the game (which takes place in NY) which took him time .
So in the end we only spend 0,1 % of the game in NY ; the fight versus Solidus. Since ppl who hadn\'t played it yet, don\'t know about that ; playing a very very small amount of time in NY at the very end of the game. How could they\'ve objected to play the game becuz of that if they didn\'t know (and again... it\'s only a very small part at the end). So.. blaming 9/11 for lagging sales at the end of 2002  (with a game like Splinter Cell on the rise) :o
C\'mon... somewhere back he said he kinda didn\'t see him self active in a MGS3 project, he asked Japanese players for advice on MGS3... LOL you gotta admit \'demand = money\' for MGS3 is high.
Kojima ran out of quality ideas a looooong time and now he\'s gotta stretch out the ones (few ?) he still has for MGS3.
So... get rid of vampires, sexual related story items (Raiden, Vamp..being bi-sexual...the stuff with Otacon and his stepmom and so on) and a get a bit of realism back into the game. Every time I\'m surprised my temper rises to flamable hights, whenever I think of MGS2... did it lt me down soooo much.. yeah it did becuz I like MGS1 so much. (and the full money I payed for MGS2.... yeah games are THAT expensive here in Europe ; € 69.... that\'s about the same in USDollars... hmmppf 65 USD maybe)

ooooook....


Can\'t really understand how you could be that disappointed in MGS2. Just doesn\'t make sense to me.

I loved the first one. The second one was good too but clearly not as good as the first.

Some people are just too hard to please.

I never got why people said get realism back in the game. You have a dude named Big Boss, huge walking nuclear weapons, psychic psychotics, genome soldiers, and a cyborg ninja you have long ago stpped passed that invisible line called realism. I\'ll agree I didn\'t like vamp in MGS2 but not because it was to unrealistic because he was a shitty character and there are way to many vampire characters out there.

HE IS NOT A SHITTY CHARACTER!!:mad:

He is COOL!!

ehh.. what I mean by realism in MGS is a defined context. All in MGS1 which is NOT realistic still remains within context of an overevolved high tech terrorist story. Adding a vampire in that
\'world, breaches that context. It feels \'forced\' and a change just
for the sake of change.... that\'s never a good thing imo...I mean,
hell, why don\'t we then just insert Harry Potter into MGS3  
:rolleyes: .The bullet defying ability by Fortune was \'forced \'too. Of course... at the very very end we learn that it was high tech all the time. But we learn that too late in the game and only by spoken words, not by gameplay. That\'s just my hint to Mr. Kojima... don\'t go mixing genres or tech worlds with magic/fantasy worlds.

what i dont get, is why call it mgs3, i mean the others b4 mgs where all called different names, metal gear, snakes story or something like that

I knew this would happen, since Kojima kept on hinting on it
