Quantcast



At the Tokyo PlayStation Premier event in Tokyo, Konami unveiled what seems to be an expansion pack for PSP's Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops. It'll offer new playable characters, new multiplayer stages and game modes, and a new single-player mode called Infinity Mission. No other details seem forthcoming yet on the official site, nor is it clear exactly how it'll work, but WHO CARES!! METAL GEAR!!!!!!

Dig the trailer. Looks like-- let's call him "mature" Solid Snake is on board. Is the FoxDie virus sexually communicable? 'Cause I'd still so do him.

Not to be a prick or anything, but sequels and expansions are two completely things in regards to video games..

Expansions, 99.9% of the time require the original game in order to play. As in, you need WoW's original install in order to play the expansion, WoW: TBC.

I'm just gonna go ahead and throw it out there that you'll likely be able to throw Metal Gear MCXVVIIX: Toaster Revamp into your PSP and play it without ever using the original Portable Ops disc.

Now..

WOOOOOOO Metal Gear!! (On the PSP I dont own even!)

I think more people are mesmerized by Summa on the clog.

But....are people really going to re-buy this game for a few modes? I suppose there are worse things to buy on the PSP.

Looks like Leigh confirms that once more, men get hotter with age! Or only when they have solid snakes? Wait, so FoxDie=Viagra???

Trailer looks nice though, Infinity Mission looks like some sort of arcade version where you have more ammo and health?

Luke Smith had the best idea for this game, port it to the PS2 and call it Metal Gear Solid: Ported Opps.

Hopefully it'll remain it's expansion format when/if it's released here in the UK ala VR missions. I don't want to shell out for the original game again ala Substance/Subsistence.

@ArrestedDeveloper

no joke, i seriously want it ported to the ps2. i have a PSP and all, and i have played the game. it's just that i can't take the damn controls! they suck. i guess i may give it another go with MPO+. i just REALLY wish they left the camera as the old-style top-down MGS camera. you need a second analog stick/nub for a free moving camera.

Know those "Game of the year edition"? Its should be a cheaper, more complete, less bugged, kinda updated game.

What I find interesting is Kojima Productions way of making the same game very interesting once again. I bought MGS3 and then Subsistence used for $20 and I think that with the it-was-good-while-it-lasted online play it was a good purchase.

Yikes, they expect me to buy this game again? Worse, do they expect me to play through it again? Yikes.

I'd pay 5-10 bucks to download this content, but you couldn't pay me to play through the single player campain one more time. Once was more than enough.

It's not a bad game, but it really gets tedious after the first half, even by MGS standards.

Because the PSP has no good games, right?

Grandpa Snake gone back in time? Also it needs the top-down perspective and some other stuff, perhaps a playable Snatcher or Lunar Knight.

Pants offcially creamed.

I beat MGS:PO 8 times, and I'm still not tired.

I'll gladly pay 29.99 for this.

Love Metal Gear, hate portable ops. I'm only here because I'm in love with Leigh and wanted her to know I was working on Metal Gear: Porno Ops so she really can do old Snake...

Now with more junk in the trunk!!!

Woot! Old Snake Rulz!

Why do I keep using exclamation marks!!!

Read over at Joystiq that this will be costing around $25.

Unless the single player offers more story, bosses, etc, I'll not be picking this up until it's $10.

So, to sum everything up...

Leigh loves snake
Leigh REALLY loves older snake
Snake + Foxdie = Older Sexy Snake
Metal Gear: PO+ = Metal Gear:PO 1.5?

Ummmm... damn... I'm confused now. Just give Leigh some foxdie, make the game $20 since it seems to be a rehash plus some, fix the damn camera, and put a megazord in there for the power ranger wanna-bes and so we can kill it.

Lastly...

FEEL THE +!

I like the Beastie Boys style ending.
Does snake always have such a badly acted voice?
