MGS4 Makes Fun of Xbox :D:D:D

[Living Near Shamu]

From endgadget:

We've already seen some of the product placement to be found in the soon-to-be-released Metal Gear Solid 4, and it looks like PlayStation 3 users are in store for a bit of reinforcement about their console buying decision as well. As you can see for yourself in the video after the break, at one point during the game, Metal Gear Solid's Otacon takes a not-so-subtle dig at the Xbox 360's non-HD disc format by asking you to swap disc 1 for disc 2, only to suddenly realize that you're using a Blu-ray disc, and a dual-layer one at that, which then prompts him to go on about "what an age we live in." At least there's no HD DVD reference to further rub it in, though we wouldn't doubt that there's one of those lurking somewhere in the game as well.

After all the trouble licensing the name from Otakon (which the name is taken from apparently one of the designers of the first game attended one of the first ones), you'd figure they could at least spell it right

I've been there, live close to where it usually is. We affectionately call it "line-con" since it so SOOO popular, you stand in lines all day to get to anything!

This wasnt a stab at the 360. The mgs games normally take up multiple discs..

the only one that takes up more than one disc is metal gear solid i believe. the other ones only take up one disc, except for mgs2 substance and mgs3 subsistance, which is the game + bonus material. im sure a two disc MGSIVS will come out too.

the xbox would have needed 6 discs for mgs iv, and tats just the game.

No, the only MGS game that required multiple dics was MGS1 on PS1.

No it was not to make fun of 360. It was cause an older version of it on playstation was more then 1 disc. It was already said people. Get your facts.

I thought Otacon was because that's a term they use for the nerdy IT guys in japan or something. So Kojima used that name and made the guy actually look cool and apealing. Idk. I thought I saw that in the MGS Saga dvd vol. 1.

Said by who? Like I said it was stated by the guy who originally found it on youtube that this little joke is EARLY IN THE GAME. The first MGS game didn't make you swap disc until halfway through the game! I wouldn't be surprised if a little bit later in the game he cracks a joke about disc 3!
