Metal Gear Online

**MIG-31** · Jun 17, 2008, 05:44 PM

What do you think? Ready to go for another 2000 comments? Or is everyone still too tired from last time? It probably doesn't matter, since Metal Gear's optional online side dish doesn't quite come with the same burden of expectation and devotion as the main course. It is, however, very much a distinct and separate part of the package and thus worthy of its own moment in the spotlight. And, for the benefit of those on both sides, that's exactly how I'll be scoring it - as the first iteration of a standalone Metal Gear Online game that just happens to come bundled with Metal Gear Solid 4.

I thought the online was good. I really had no complaints except for the registration part. I found it to be pretty dumb to have to register like 2 different accounts just to play online.

Online's different and uncoventional. It's not to everyone's taste (just like the game really) it's impressive though for a first attempt. I think it silly to review the online portion as a standalone as content is going to be added all the time. Plus i never saw a mutiplayer only review for Halo gears etc not sure why this gets special treatment.
