I downloaded the MGS4 trailer a few moments ago and it is SHHHAAAAWWEEETTTTT!!! I’m currently downloading the Folklore demo as we speak….. so I’ll probably have to pull a ‘while you sleep’ download.
The last trailer was a more impressive sales pitch.
I swear, every time I see a cutscene for this game it looks like garbage.
On one hand you have this nice looking third world warzone.
And in the other you have this bunch of horrible 90’s comic villains running around.
It’s like “What if Stan Lee Directed Black Hawk Down?”
Excelsior!
Additionally Folk Souls demo is pretty rubbish. It reminds me of a PS3 version of From Software’s early PS2 ARPG Evergrace.
And when will Japan fall out of love with dudes wearing trench coats? Zzzzzz. . .
