Any one got it yet im not sure if im going to shell out or not, i liked the original game but i hate games with end of level bosses which this has it takes away from the game i think. I've heard both sides some say its amazing some that its annoying.

I have haze and condemned 2 finished and ready to trade so i might get rid of them. As im bored of GTA for a while and there isnt another game coming for ages i need something new.

Im trading in 2 tonight for it, i loved the previous one but honestly im unsure about this one.

I'll be keeping a close eye on the gamespot forums today to see what people think, i'll be using it online & probably wont get round to the story for weeks!

Went to trade 2 games, Smyths have a trade 2 get it for 9.99 !! instead of free like on all other games , xtravision normally give you it free if your games add up to over 40 mine add up to 47 and i have to add 13 with that !!

the online looks great im going to get it after work i think

Are you sure you dont add 9.99 for the special edition?

Or do smyths even have the SE?

No it was the normal edition it was very weird every other game had the free with 2 games bar this one it had 59.99 or 53.99 with L.card and the trade 2 get thsi for 9.99 !!

I picked it up in xtravision just next door got 47 for condemned and resistance so i ended up costing me 13 which is pretty dissapointing it better be good.

Got it earlier, It's been amazing so far, the cut-scenes have been breath-taking with some amazing sound(that is if you have a good sound system).
Usually games are quite dull at the start but this hits the ground running, after roughly an hours play time i have a feeling it's going to be the best game i've ever played.
Not sure what kind of people you were talking too because everything i have read has been posititve and the reviews were on par with GTA getting top reviews all across the board(bar one who gave it 8/10 on the basis if you did'nt like the older ones you won't like this)

With all my running around yesterday i didnt get to sit down to this untill 12 so only got 1 1/2 hours played before i fell asleep.So far its the best looking game even topping COD its a cinematic master piece, for the game play its taken a little getting used to i havent played MG in years but its quite easy to get to grips with if you take your time.

I had one guy complaining that there was too much sneeking i said thats the point of the game but he prefers to run about like a head less chicken in COD where as i think this is more the thinking mans game.

I havent gotten to any end of level bosses so the game still has massive appeal but i know deep down as soon as some stupid massive robot that takes hundreds of bullets to kill shows up it will ruin the whole thing for me.

I can't really add anymore to what the 2 lads have said above,the cut scenes are simply breath taking. A simply amazing game so far,half of the reason I purchased my PS3 last week, waiting for Gran Turismo to complete it.

Anyone have any thoughts on the "Stress" factor with snake without giving too much away.

Still liking it only up to the bit with Meryl and the fire fight in the house with Liquids special soldiers ( that sound like birds ).

Not sure what the stress thing is about but snake is doing a lot of puking

I imported the Dual shock controller as well really adds to the game with the rumble.

Just onto act 2 now still loving it starting to upgrade the guns now as well.
