So, Major, you are saying there is a game store in the vicinity of where you work/ live that either doesn't know who you are (says something about the level of "gamer" working there), that you don't have a hook up with, and that didn't tell you MGS was going to be sold out ahead of time? What is the name of this awesome place???

And for anyone that says "his name isn't MN" as a reason why someone wouldn't know him, Larry introduces himself in every interview and show with his first and last name (not to mention the video interviews, inside xbox, etc...no excuse for not knowing the Major when he is out and about!)

I guess if the PS3 fans who keep posting who much better it is had a pr blog for their product they might have heard there is a subscription fee which will now be required for PSN "premium", which of course includes their demos...not their demos right away (like a Gold account), but rather an all or nothing (you no pay, you no play). I believe the pricing is set to $5 a month/ $25 for a year, but all it gives you is a digital magazine and demos trailers, so $50 for Gold is still a bargain.

I don't understand how people think this game plays like any game other than GEARS OF WAR...it has a 99% identical control/ cover scheme, and even has exact levels from Gears (in Dark Sector one level puts in the Mansion, cut and pasted right in). The game was a lot of fun, though a little repetitive, but the multiplayer had a few issues that made it too much trouble to deal with. Definitely worth a rental if you liked Gears.

Sigh. If only I could download this with my Gold account. :\

I guess I'll have to wait a week and then download it on my free silver account.

I think that this game is ok. The glaive is a fun weapon and it looks pretty. The rest is quite generic and the shooting is a little poor. However, I enjoyed playing it whilst it lasted - 7 out of 10

The game was banned in Australia and the demo available on AU marketplace is the uncut version. All of the gore and such is present! Looks like someone at Microsoft stuffed up. Australians better hurry before it gets taken down!!!!!! To date no other version other than the uncut version has been submitted for a rating. So there is currently banned content available to Australians on marketplace! Thanks a bunch Major, this gives us the opportunity to easily bypass this countries inane video game classification laws. The OFLC can get stuffed. As always their BS classification decisions have once again been made useless. I'm pretty sure the game was banned in Germany as well.

Pretty funny leg pull guys. No Kiss Of Death because since there was no demo prior, I got it for $24 - a 9/10 Grade Used copy. Even if I had not already purchased this title, I would still be waiting a week for it anyway. THIS FIXES NOTHING MAJOR.

I DARE YOU, DARE YOU, TRIPLE DOG DARE YOU, to pull this with a Gears 2 demo. PLEASE.

Have you figured out that being STUPID like this is one of the reasons game sales have slowed. And there is NO DRM TOOL yet, so ZERO FOR TWO as of late...

XBox 360 - And don't even ask me what I think of the PA week 3 rating. $20 is justified my backside - even Bejeweled was half price on XBLA...

"PSN doesn't come close to XBL"

Yah it's about 100000000000 miles ahead with no waiting for demos,no cost,actual cash ammounts,equal Canadian pricing,a whole lot less laggy games (1/14 I tried on PS3 while 9/12 lagged on XBL) and less jerks playing them. (Ran into one in every room on XBL,one total on PSN though personal exp. there) Though it would be nice if they updated more than once a week.

Better late than never, I already downloaded the PS3 demo, bought the Xbox game, completed it and traded it :P However its a solid game thats under rated imo, if you enjoy the demo you will like the full game, but I would'nt buy it over Ninja Gaiden or anything :)
