Of course the reception looks mixed on video game forums, article comments sections, and other places where you cannot actually verify if the person really did buy the game. It's the internet, after all.
Except when you actually read the reviews of said websites and ignore the score (shocking I know) and see that all of them marked it down for being overpriced. Granted everyone remarks that it is good and I am certainly not denying that cause Kojima does good stuff, but the demos for the earlier entries were all excellent as well and much more reasonably priced. I still feel like letting Konami get away with this (I would love to see Nintendo try this, they would be eaten alive) because it sends a really bad message to the gaming companies that we'll pay anything to get our next "fix".

Aren't you happy I came back? coffee5.gif
