Here’s another blog that should have been posted a long time ago. Hehe, I really should stop procrastinating.

I remember the first time I saw in-game footage of Mirror’s Edge. It was so beautiful. It’s been months and now the game is out. It’s been out for a while now, actually, so let’s take at, not at the game itself, but at the what I call my Package Review.

It’s a little late, but here are MGS4 unpacking pictures. Took them when the game was released, but forgot to blog them till now. In this blog, you’ll see MGS4 NA version, MGS4 JP version, and MGS4 OST.

San Francisco Metreon. June 14, 2008. Today was the day I met a gaming legend, the creator of Metal Gear series, Hideo Kojima. How many MGS fans can say that? Besides Mr. Kojima, I also met Kenichiro Imaizumi, and Yumi Kikuchi. This is a dream come true… I am content.

July 12, 2008. I’ve been waiting for this day! Solid Snake’s final chapter begins(ends?) today. Today is the day we’ll finally understand the whole story and saga of Metal Gear. I’m getting excited just by writing these. So many things are waiting to be answered and revealed. I cannot wait!

Went to my local Borders today and was shocked to see this in the “New Releases - Fiction” section. It was mentioned sometime ago (I think it was during the MGS 20th Ann Party), but I had forgotten that Konami was releasing a novel based on the first game. The price is $12.95 from Borders and it has 320 pages. More pictures after the jump~

As everyone knows, and I mean E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E, Grand Theft Auto IV was launched today. I haven’t seen such huge ad campaign for a video game - not even Halo 3 had this much publicity. I saw ads on buses, huge poster on buildings and billboards. Even news channels and newspapers talked about it. Rockstar must be proud.

I’m sure there are plenty of other sites (Kotaku, IGN, Gametrailers, 1UP, etc) have reviews and whatnot, so I’ll leave that to those guys. So instead, I’ll talk about the game cover and the packaging. Don’t worry, I’ll keep it short and simple.

Metal Gear Online BETA started on Friday and I’m betting half the PS3 owners were playing it on the first day. The game has two modes for online playing: Automatching and Freebattle. The Automatching has three lobbies: Snake, Liquid, and Raiden. On Friday, all three lobies were maxed out (999 people in each lobby).

The other mode, Freebattle, has more lobbies (Otacon, Meryl, Eva, etc), but I didn’t check how many people were in those. I played for five hours straight that day and surprisingly I came in either first or second. But I guess that’s because BETA had just started and everyone was a newbie. Heh~

I’m planning on writing about the BETA every now and then for those of you who didn’t get in. As for this post, I’m going to talk about the controls. Feel free to share your thoughts.

When you reserve a copy of Metal Gear Solid 4 with GameStop, you get a free copy of Metal Gear Saga volume 02 and access to Metal Gear Online Beta. Why some people still haven’t preorder is beyond me. Kojima Productions always include free goodies with reserves. With MGS3: Subsistence, we got MG Saga volume 01 which you can now only find on ebay. What’s that? You didn’t reserve a copy, but you want in on the Beta? And you want Saga too? Well… sucks to be you. More pictures after the jump.

For those of you who visit the forums often, you might have seen my post last night where I said I may see Ryan Payton tomorrow. Well, I tried, but I almost got arrested! Full story after the jump.
