Solid Snake hopes to save PlayStation 3
In the next mission of the Metal Gear Solid series, Solid Snake must save PlayStation 3 console sales – and save the world at the same time. MGS4 went on sale yesterday as one of the most hotly anticipated game titles this year and it’s a PlayStation 3 exclusive.
Who says the new wave of console gaming is for casual gamers only? The MGS series is unapologetically for serious gamers only. And Sony hopes sales of Metal Gear Solid 4 will catapult the struggling PlayStation 3 into the stratosphere.
In this article on Metal Gear Solid 4 sales, Audioholics takes a closer look at the impact of the game for Sony. Xbox 360 had its Halo 3 that shot its sales above Wii (for a short time) and boy, wouldn’t Sony like to see the same thing happen with MGS4. In this article Audioholics.com asks the simple question… Will MGS4 be PlayStation 3’s Halo 3?
That’s a lot of sequels for one question, but you get the idea.
And whats all this save stuff. People look at NYP/US numbers to much. PS3 "pre MGS" is like 3 to 1 over the 360 worldwide. Just takes time, to make up for that year and half behind start. Common sense. I can give any slow kid a 2 lap lead. And he can say hes doing good all he wants. An dsay that before I even start. But im gonna get him eventually. Im clueless to how the media sees Sony as needing saved lol. You have to look at month to month, momentum, what will fit tomorrows world/tech, and world numbers. I hate when are county blinds everyone to what we think is doing what.

MGS4 has absolutely blown me away. Never in my life have I played a game this amazing, you absolutely must experience this game for yourself. I love GTA and COD4, but MGS4 just destroys both of them. I'm bloody amazed. You need to try this game!
(*)so why after every cinematic and every area does it load for another 5 minutes!! its insanely rubbish and sucks ass.
good story though but not worth the hassle.
