As a hardcore MGS fan, I feel the need to stand up and fight (at least squeal) against this tyranny, against this evil. Why would anyone want to willingly spoil anything for anyone? The Bioshock spoilers were almost unbearable, the twist was ruined for me before the disc was even spinning in my 360. For a game like Bioshock, story may not have been so important, but it was important nevertheless.
Now, when we come to a game that revolves entirely around the story, where every action you do is in relation to accomplishing a goal that leads you to a cut-scene, story is significantly important. Like I said, I'm a hardcore fan, and I don't want to see this. I've been replaying the past games the past month in order to remember the story (and partially to brush up on my Solid Snake groans). I think I speak for everyone when I say, stop the spoiling.
Now for the confusion part.
Many people seem to think that the Steel PS3 is the superior bundle, I'm not saying it's everybody, it's a (dumb) minority. They still have to be addressed and corrected.
Steel PS3:
40 gig PS3. Steel finish. No PS2 backwards compatibility. Limited Edition MGS4 pack. Dualshock 3 controller.
Price:
$600
Piano Black PS3 (original)
80 gig PS3. Dust attracting finish. Near full PS2 compatibility. Normal edition MGS4 pack. Dualshock 3 controller.
Price:
$500
Now, is that crystal-clear?
I don't want to know the joys of having a wife and kids though.
Urgh...
Just now, after I completed all three games in the Solid series, I tried to read wikipedia to see if I missed any vital information before I get my hands on MGS4.
People have already started to slip in MGS4 spoilers here and there in the articles. At least I think it was an MGS4 one, considering I never heard of it in the earlier games, but there was no warning or anything.
The one I read wasnt a huge one (I think), but it was certainly an annoying detail, that I wish I'd learn in the game.
Anyway, I guess I'll stay off the internet until Thursday..
