Family Guy is one of my favorite cartoons next to The Simpsons.

Is it a knock out title ? How does it play ? how is the story ? Is it any fun ?

How can u say its a knock out title if you can't answer the 3 others .

Wait for it to be playable before you start saying things with nothing to back it up

Oh, I'm so sorry... I didn't know how serious such a topic of mine is, so serious that I have to be ready to "back it up".

Gawd, I feel so rotten now... I'll have to be real careful now before I say anything that is as serious as what I posted.

I started this incredibly serious thread to say that I love every single MGS that's been out. Every new one betters its predecessor.

But I guess I need to back that up as well.

Is jvd supposed to be a mod for this forum? Amazing.

But you still missed my most basic point.

A person who has waited until 2005-2006 to buy a PS2 is not a person who would buy a launch system of any kind. These people waited for 5 freaking years without buying a PS2, and the games already out on the system didn't motivate them to buy one sooner. Clearly the upcoming games aren't what is really motivating them. Sequels to games they've already passed up is all they are.

And "early adopting" something that has nothing to do with console gaming makes them even more irrlevent than before. That makes them completely out of the market for a new console, and thus, not something a console manufacturer would worry about at launch. Years down the line, they may worry about this group, but not at launch.

The only people you care about at launch are the ones who would be willing to spend $400+ on a new system, and even more on accessories and games. They are the only ones that matter, because they are the only ones who have even a remote possibility of buying your console. Everyone else doesn't matter, only the potential customers in that time frame.

What if said person was an early adopter for a Xbox and just recently decided there were some great games on PS2 he wanted to get, so got that instead of a X360? People are nearly impossible to be lumped into statistics because they can always do the unexpected or change their opinion on what they like/dislike.

I am getting all 3 next gen systems, to me it's not about loyalty, or which system has the better games, it's about the PRICE, I would even buy the phantom console, but it all comes down to price for me. MS is asking too much for there console and most likely Sony will ask the same as MS, Nintendo rev maybe the first next gen console I purchase, because Ninty has never launched a console over $200, and rev might sit around $250-$300 price marks which appeals to me, $300 is the most I am willing to pay for a launch system, I would have bought 360, but that whole 2 SKU's don't sit with me, bad move on MS, it might end up haunting them for the next 5 years.

I just finished MGS1 the other day. It still holds up very nicely. Playing MGS2 right now and it's pretty good too I like the gameplay additions. I couldn't imagine not being able to play the 4th game in the series because I dont own a PS3. That's simply not an option
