Comparing Metal Gear Solid 4 to Ground Zeroes is "nonsense," says Kojima

My eyes are far from being 20/20 so I don't care how it looks. What I do care about, however, is how you try to rip off people with a 2 hr demo.

I feel really sorry for all those people who are outdated with the news of this game and still believe the game is 2 hours long. Let me give you a hand: the game is 5 hours long if you count all missions, and that means around 20% of total game completition. Only the main mission lasts 90 minutes to 2 hours.

So Ground Zeroes is open world but still "substantially shorter" than it's linear predecessor............................WHAT!?!?!!?

It is nonsense, one is a game and the other is a demo.

Funny how no one is outraged that what should be a free demo on PS+ or XB Live is costing money at retail.

Of course its a different game, you have replaced the perverted but cool snake with an edgier angrier twattier snake.

Octocamo pleaseeeeeeeeee u wieners!

I want to know how big is the world, how many primary missions there are and how many side missions there are. If game informer finished this game in 2 hours maybe they did not do the side missions, or if there were any.

No octocamo, no buy.

Of course comparing MGS4 and MGS: GZ is non-sense, one I can get for under $20 and lasts for more than 2 hours...

Right, I mean why would you compare sequels? tTat's just ludicrous.

i would agreed to Kojima if he says the current price for Ground Zero is non-sense and is should be 50 to 70% less

From what I hear, Ground Zeroes is basically like the Tanker chapter in 2 and the Virtuous Mission in 3, right?

His ego was out of hand before, and seems even worse now.

I believe Metal Gear 4 could have been amazing if it had been edited to flow better,

but Hideo's creative control hampered the experience and made the story flow in

very strange ways.

If you don't want people to compare the games, Don't call it Metal Gear Solid. People will always look at the Previous game and compare it to what is supposed to be better about the next.

So what if it's an open world game? Is the GAMEPLAY that much different from other Metal Gear games? No?

Going open world doesn't mean your game is magically a completely new experience Kojima. Actually it makes it sound like you're setting up excuses for when people figure out that it SUCKS.

Next Gen = leaving footprints in mud. Make it so Fox Engine!

I don't remember anyway saying that those two games were similar. I do remember people being angry ( and rightly so) about the price of ground zeros given the short length of the game.

Everyone who isn't dumb already knew that. I guess sometimes you gotta take the role of Captain Obvious for the masses

yeah but the real "nonsense" is GZ's price

The Fox Engine does indeed scale well, it seems. I wonder how much of the environment can be interacted or destroyed.

This article would have been nice if it was about PS4 vs Xbox One comparison wise but this is just pathetic what Kojima is saying. Whos said anything about MGS4 vs Ground Zero anyways?

I like how you used a last-gen screen shot at the top of the article.
