I cannot believe anybody is complaining. Graphics are completely impressive, gameplay looks fun as hell. The animations do apparently have less frames than what was shown at e3, and the color palette does seem limited in the FEW scenes we have seen, but they aren't a far cry from MGS3...and do these "detractors" somehow make the game less fun to play? ABSOLUTELY NOT. The rolling barrel is not out of place at all in MGS either, and actually made me laugh out loud. Try actually PLAYING the series sometime, as opposed to injecting your bullsh*t opinions on a BLOG. Kworn, Gamer G, Jack Carver: go play Halo and shut your stinkin' mouths. This game was not made for you.

LOL at the n64 comment. Please burn.

works great on my TA-082 v2.80, though it did lock up once or twice. joystiq commenters need a life.

I spent about three hours with the game last night and the issues that had cropped up for me were:
*Partway through the second Regional played, the 360 locked up and required a reboot. This is the first game, XBLA or otherwise that has done this on my machine.
*The amount of wait time for 7 others to join a regional tournament was over 15 minutes...enough time for a large-scale voice chat flame war with people from all over the country. Due to this fag-assery, the ones without headsets (probably the ones looking to play a serious game) left quickly, extending the wait time, and opening the slots to more potty-mouthed American children avoiding bedtime.
*NOBODY seems to know if the game is free forever, or just these first two days. Pointless arguments ensue in every game.

The article opened my eyes to things I didn't notice. This game is BROKEN.
