If Kojima just waited until the PS3 came out to release this game, it would unquestionably be the greatest game of all time. The gameplay mechanics and graphic fidelity.. just imagine.
I don't normally agree with anything posted on here, but you have a good point OP.
OP ur dump.
Gameplay would be exactly same.
The technical fidelity of graphics (polycount, texture size, shaders) is irrelevant when the visual style is already fantastically directed and forms a cohesive whole.
Also waiting for the PS3 would have been an insane long time to just sit on your ass and twiddle your thumbs. Remember the Daikatana.
