For those who can't be arsed reading it, Europe is only getting Subsistence in October! This makes it worse than our delay for getting ZOE2.
We better bloody get something good as an extra.

I don't get it. What takes them so long releasing it here?
Also, I want to know exactly where they got this info.

My best guess for extras would be stuff for the online mode (see the recent survey), but they might end up as downloads for everyone else anyway (maybe later, though).

But I don't know if that makes up for such a long wait... I don't think they really have an excuse this time.

I thought up a list of everything they need to include before I consider the delay to be justified-
1- The E3 2006 trailers of MGS4 and MPO
2- New levels for MGO
3- An extended version (or possibly a sequel to) Mesal Gear Solid
4- An ability to have a second player control Eva in the sections you work alongside her
5- MG2:SS Online
6- MetalGear 3: The Twin Snakes (MGS with MG2's engine)

So in summary, they're not going to be able to justify the delay. :lol:

Stop complaining! You should be happy that you’re getting it at all!

Surely you'd be a bit annoyed if you were very excited about game coming out in March, and then it gets delayed to June. When June comes, it gets delayed until October. I wouldn't mind if they originally said it was coming out then, but when I get my hopes up and setting money aside to buy it they move it back. It is frustrating.

That's understandable.

Ha, that was a quick turnaround.

You're hardly missing much. Unless you're set-up to play online the instant you get it, there's not a lot of substantial content otherwise that should have you dying to play it. Do the new Snake VS. Ape missions really mean that much to you?

I have to admit the new camera is a much appreciated addition (for a start).

Basically I'm seeing Subsistence as "MetalGear 2: Solid Snake- Special Edition", to be honest, as the game means so much to me. And yes, I am set up to play MGO.

Edit- Just how many new Snake vs. Ape missions are there? I have a suspicion that they were in the European version of Snake Eater.

They are the same ones from the EU release of MGS3, yes.

You do get used to disappointment in Europe. I think Wario Ware Twisted has been brought back two years, now. They've come so close to releasing it, that they sent out review copies a whole three times!
