    So, just had an email notification that my copies of MGS: Legacy Collection and Puppeteer have been dispatched… Which is good. To arrive tomorrow, which would be even better... except the Post has been erratic lately and I've got to be at work in the afternoon :(. Just might have to start later.

    "Metal Gear! it can't be..."

    "Metal Gear is one of our most secret black projects, how did you know that?"

    "We've had a few run ins in the past..."

    (Sorry)

        Saw a great photo of an independent game shop notice. Ran something like:

        "We are sorry we'll be closed on Wednesday 18th September, but all our customers will be playing GTA V. The staff will be too".

        I gave up on IV when I couldn't get past the bloody helicopter missions… Think I'll give V a miss for a while.

          Fuck the IV, V'll take the game back to the max, I just know it will… Imagine a Vice City/ San Andreas with great graphics and pumped full of testosteron...

            I'll play it eventually. Wonder how long it'll take GTA Online to descend into chaos…

                  Puppeteer and Metal Gear Solid: Legacy Collection arrived today  ;D. Unfortunately I was at work until 21:30 BST :(. Plus I've got work all weekend 😞 And Monday/Tuesday. Might get up really early tomorrow, start MGS3. Maybe have time to watch the first cutscene  ;).

                  I'll update with pics sometime over the weekend. The artwork book with the MGS: LC is really interesting. All cover artwork and posters, plus flyers.

                  EDIT: Forgot to mention, just watched Jestre destroy Dracula in Bloodlines :). Next up is Dracula X: Rondo of Blood. Know as Castlevania: Vampires Kiss in the U.S (and horribly rare/expensive to buy on SNES, although the port is supposed to be terrible).

                    Legacy Collection looks sick… But I never liked playing MGS 4... How is Peacewalker?..

                      Played it until the first boss battle (tank), felt dull to me. Some people say it's one of the best MGS games though.
                      A thing I liked about it was the fulton recovery system. It's a game you should play if your backlog is empty and you don't know what else to play imho. But now with GTA V, Puppeteer and stuff that's not going to be the case. 😃

                        Surprising immersive on handheld, the controls took a bit of getting used to. Strangely, they've kept the controls the same on PS3. I thought they would have been reconfigured to take advantage of the extra buttons and second stick.

                          Well MGS:LC has already been put to one side. Started with Puppeteer, played the other night for 4hrs… Fantastic so far although there does seem to be a bit of an over-reliance on QTEs :(.

                          The trouble is.. GTA V is out tomorrow, I've just been paid in cash for an item I had on Ebay. Didn't want to be paid in cash because ^.

                          And I'm off from work Wednesday/Thursday... really tempted to buy it... But on the other hand I've got 8 games to play already...

                          EDIT:

                          My other Uniqlo x MGS4 collaboration Tee. Design by Logan. (The firm that did the intro for MGS4 and the iPod adverts for Apple).

                            My brother took Thursday and Friday off for GTA V… He's picking up our pre order tomorrow... Can't wait to get home...  😞

                              Getting it tomorrow, I didn't plan to purchase at first but got sucked in by the hype train: http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/grand-theft-auto-v

                                ^  Just got my copy so don't expect to see me much around these boards for a while…

                                  Heh, I think I've buckled under the pressure, Edge, my gaming magazine of choice has given it 10/10. Something they had only done for 8 or so games (until they revised a lot of 9/10s in the last issue). I'll probably get a copy on Wednesday, have to rotate with Puppeteer and MGS:LC. Maybe when I get stuck…

                                    In line to grab it right now, and got most of the week off.  See y'all on the other side

                                      Enjoy mate.  Been having a blast with this game and my work will definately suffer as a result!

                                          Bet it'd take you five minutes to get hooked, Rafa…
