- Metal Gear Solid 4 Delayed

Nooooooooooooooooo!
Solid Snake has been one of the saving graces of the Playstation 3. Sony fans have heralded his coming to bring the system the sales it needs to survive in the aggressive market it seems to be losing ground in. Today, Konami announced that it will not be as soon as some hope.
The delay will place Metal Gear Solid 4 in Q2, 2008. This marks the third date change for the title, which started in Q1 2008, moved to Q4 2007, was bounced to Q1 2008 again, and is now settling (supposedly) on Q2, 2008.
The official line is that the delay is to ensure "greater enjoyment for more customers worldwide." -SOURCE The full press release is below.
KONAMI announced today that "METAL GEAR SOLID 4 GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS", the latest in the METAL GEAR series, is scheduled to be released in the second quarter of 2008.
KONAMI had initially intended to release "METAL GEAR SOLID 4 GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS" this winter and has been working on the production of the title. KONAMI has decided to delay the title's release in order to make further improvements to the quality of the game and provide even greater enjoyment for more customers worldwide.
KONAMI will continue its efforts to make "METAL GEAR SOLID 4 GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS" meet everyone's expectations.
Another game is added to the list of delays for this holiday season. On the bright side, the game looks fantastic and at least Sony will eventually get the exclusive it needs.

no. I flat out refuse to except this news. It's too cruel
You know what? I dont care anymore. I didnt care about Metal Gear 4 after Sony made the assumption that we are all going to grovel at their feet no matter how much they charge for a PS3. They lost me there. Their system is flawed, their marketing is flawed, their game selection sucks, and its sad that they only have Metal Gear to save them. I loved Metal Gear, but if Konami insists on exclusivity to a system that has nothing else to offer other than overpriced movies and un-entertaining games, then they have lost me as a customer. We've waited too long for this game and sorry Konami, but strike 3! Your out.
Sad faces.
I thought this game was already delayed for next year. Well, now it's official, I suppose.
wow another delay who would of thunk it.....I'm just going to start making my own games.....
Like penguins.
We endure it because we have no other choice... its like where else are we going to go?
Tsk Tsk PS3. Tsk Tsk. You know, sometimes I seriously wonder how much gamers are willing to endure. Is there a bit of masochism in all of us?
