According to an interview that took place during CES 2008, the confirmed news has been reported that Metal Gear Solid Online will come packaged with MGS4. There had been a ton of speculation revolving around the online package and if it was going to be a separate purchase or not. However, now we know for sure that MGS: Online will be included as a starter pack only.
In an interview done with UK Gamespot, Konami’s director put the rumors finally to rest.
They have yet to release any information such as game modes or what maps will be included within the online starter pack. They have only given us the facts that elements for an online component within Metal Gear Solid 4 will be available for you to get enjoyment out of the online experience.
Considering it’s just a starter pack like famed battle cards that have been a craze over the last decade; we can easily expect there to be add-ons in some form or fashion. Now whether these add-ons come in the appearance of downloadable content or through literal expansion packs like you’d find with an MMORPG is still unknown.
Due to statements made by the Konami executive, we feel that the downloadable content is more of a realistic expectation considering the mention of providing content through-out the year. That would hardly be financially efficient to release expansion packs to retail stores everywhere, when a user could simply download from their home PlayStation 3.
If anything else breaks on this story, we’ll be sure to let you know.

nice...
Awesome ^__^
sweet.!! i knew that they were just going to have a starter. i wonder. if they will have a full game disc or just downloadable content. OR!!!!! is it on the limited edition! orcollectables
There is no question when MGS4 comes out anyone who plays it will be like LOLWTFBBQMGSPS3FTW. The only question is will it win GOTY.... or will it be LBP?
Don't worry 360 fans. You can play MGS4 at my house when its out.
nice to know, CES has brought in a lot of news, i wasnt expecting this much news from the event
There'll be even more Q's when the game/s come out! I suspect tournaments will be held for MGO, and I anticipate DLC of previous MGS characters (in old skool form, all pixelated, maybe?) as well. Even more so, a cross-over would be very interesting to such see....such as characters from other Konami games!!!
Wouldn't that be cool?! Imagine characters from Silent Hill, Castlevania, etc.
They are really going all out with this. Can we see a Metal Gear Wars mini-fighting game? I hope so hahaha.
HAHA! Dave's a noobie at MGS....you're gonna love it!
I feel I'm much better at stealth 3rdPS than any FPS...so I'd better be good at MGO!
@DaveW .... You don't have a PS3 yet O_o Your missing out dude. Its kool that you bought the previous versions but if you wanted to catch the whole plot Kojima got your back. MGS4 will contain optional cut scenes from previous games to keep you from scratching your head wondering who, what, when, where, why.
wait wait wait dave doesn't have a ps3 yet wtf! whoa i would've thought you have a ps3 by now.
oh ok.....nevermind
this is da sh!t!!
hey! DW. hahah lol. thanks for the great news. MGS4!
Within the past few days and today everday they talking about MTG so thats mean the game is going to be released soon and thats good. Also they are trying to make media so that everyone could know. I will buy it, just you guys release the game and i will both of them. ^____^
@MatrixSixaxis: At least Dave's played the game. I haven't even tried a demo of it. No, not because I thought it was stupid. Because at the time different games appealed to me.
I now regret that decision and I plan to pick up copies of the first games before MGS4 comes out. By the way, which MGS2 sucked?
Yeah,that wasw pretty much what i was expecting,nice to have a confirmation though.
I wonder exacly how much this is going to cost us to get our hands on this game?! 1. Starter pack for online play 2. actual game and 3. add-ons.????? I want this game as bad as anyone of you guys here but at what cost? Oh well, I'll pay the $$ regardless.....Thanx for letting me vent...
ehhh not the best news but still its something
hopefully all that downloadable content is free but anyway the game should be great :)
PSN id: ryanh7
i would love spin-of mgs rts, really there are lots of machinery in mgs, lots of characters and groups and lots of continents all that is needed now is just to put them together
@InfernoReaper I think the game you're thinking of that sucked was "Substance". I've never played it and was actually a little disappointed in the length of MGS2: Sons of Liberty. I've yet to play Snake Eater. I've been borrowing it from a friend for almost a year and haven't touched the game yet.
eeeh... great news? no I have to buy 2 games instead of one... and probably no free downloadable content. I mean AWESOME!!! DLC!!!
psn id: gingo....i think this is a good idea cos it gives to like a free trial where u can choose if you want ot buy the downloadable content or not depending if you like it or not
@DaveW....... yes seriously get Folklore it has one of the best storys i've ever played in a game
This is awesome news! I would've been a little frustrated if they sold it seperately, even though I would've ended up buying it, makes me save money in the end.
@gingo......Stories, not storys.....anyways, can't wait for this game...
niiice!!just one thing though...are both gonna be $59.99 or is gonna cost more then the usual ps3 game??damn i hope the price is the same as every other game,but if it means paying at least $100 for this game..ill sell lemonade to get that money,lol even tho i wont have to put im definitely getting this game!!
what? starter pack :S please tell me the online component wont be a f***ing card battle game that would be lame beyond comprehension :(
