Despite the fact that our time withMGOwas extended beyond what was originally planned, nothing lasts forever, and the time has finally come for Konami to pull the plug. The game was admittedly one of the hardest online shooters to get into on the market, but once you got the hang of it, it was a great way to spend your afternoon — especially if you’re aMetal Gearfan.
Fans had been clamoring for a multiplayerMetal Geargame for years, andMGOpretty much delivered (and built upon the short-livedSubsistenceonline mode). As a frame of reference, servers will close down today at 23:59 JST (Japan Standard time). It is currently 22:00 JST at the time of this writing, so if you have off work/school today, pop it in for one last go!
As someone who owns everyMetal Gear Solidgame ever released in the states, I can’t help but shed a tear today, as our sweet prince heads towards his final slumber — I’ll have to wait until later today to pour some henny out for it.
