I own it and will play online once I hook up my Playstation 2 sometime this week.

 

[Zenien]

When you do make sure to post your online name in this thread so I can add it to our probably short list.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Will do, I would love to play Subsistence with some Hype members!

What's the snake eater movie? And it's not being sold in canada huh what now?

The cutscenes from MGS3 are edited into a 3 1/2 hour movie.

As for the LE not being available in Canada, Konami doesn't like Canada I guess

 

[Mentok]

Jeeze... even Australia is getting the LE version.

 

[Electro UK]

The Snake Eater movie is a re-cut 3 hour long movie featuring every FMV from the game. Its meant to be for those who couldn't complete the game, but wanted to see the FMVs.

Can't wait for it to hit the UK

Meh, I can live without that. but those ****ing sum*****es stealing the choice from me, dman them

 

[Zenien]

Remember to post your MGO names people.

I've managed to snag a copy of the Limited Edition from a person in the states, for only 55 USD, completing me as a totally hopeless loser who bought the Special Edition of the Special Edition of a game I already own.

...and I already have a regular copy of Subsistence.

 

[Addendum]

I only paid 13 bucks when I bought the LE last wednesday.

Though I did plunk down 30 bucks for the pre-order back in December. I took some pride when the guy behind the counter told me I was the first person at his store to pre-order it.

 

[Zenien]

That's pretty neat, whever you start playing online just like post in here with your name, if we get enough people we could organize a game sometime.

Don't deny me the pleasure of killing you all using Raikovs CQC.

 

[Master Chief]

Is that cut scenes DVD worth it?

 

[Zenien]

Not really, the LE packaging is nice though.

 

[블라스]

I sure wish I could get the LE, but if not, oh well

 

[zenein]

 

[블라스]

That's not Metal Gear, DRT.

 

[zenein]

Oops

 

[WhatsHisFace]

Wow, SC4 looks way more awesome than MGO.

 

[Zenien]

1. MGO is great
2. Mod will be called to clean that stuff up.

Its not like the Twin Snakes movie is it? You had to read a load between movies to find out what happened in the parts you missed (so I just played it again and watched the movies, longer but funner )

 

[SpideyLad]

Can't wait for this. I'm going to have to get online play for my PS2.

Nope, the movie uses re-edited gameplay footage in betwen the cutscenes and plays codec conversations overtop of them at intervals.

I have it, but I don't have broadband internet and the broadband/cable company will not run it out to my house, because I live down a gravel off the highway, but Subsistence itself is an awesome game, already cleared all the duel mode battles, all the snake versus monkey missions, and have unlocked stealth, and have started playing through to catch the snake with the infite ammo face paint, I can't spell the name. Overall all its been pretty cool, I chose the I like MGS3 option on playing the game.

 

[Electro UK]

IGN is so totally right, the game does look entirely different from this view.

*hums MGS theme in anticipation*
