Kojima, You Had Me at Metal Gear, and Lost Me at Online

I don’t want to piss off any Metal Gear Online fans, in fact I wanted to be one.  I mean, I really, really wanted to be one, but I’m not, I’m so not.  And having recently read about Hideo Kojima’s revelation of disappointment at the number of people playing MGO, I felt maybe it’s not just me.

There are a lot of things about the game I could nit pick to death about game play and certain elements of the game (being trapped by porn has to be one of the most annoying things in all of gaming), but to each his own and everything I hate may be something that someone else loves or I just don’t get.  But, to me, there is one painful and almost inexplicable omission to MGO.

Even More MGS4 Passwords

Want to unlock even more cool stuff in Metal Gear Solid 4? Even more passwords were released this week. Here’s what you can get:

  • “dntkkhktmm” - Drebin FaceCamo
  • “mgo2play” - “Subsistence Action” iPod Song
  • “skynytktjp” - Scanning Plug S

Rock it out in the Extras menu. You know you want to. Do it.

More Weapon Unlocks for MGS4 Revealed

We previously brought you the passwords to get Altair’s costume and Type 17 pistol for Solid Snake in MGS4. Two more passwords have been revealed to help you up your arsenal.

If you type in “tshsniammr” at the Extras screen, you’ll get the Thor .45-70 large-caliber hand rifle. If you enter “pkhhnwhsjt”, you’ll get The Boss’s Patriot gun from MGS3.

Both are pretty cool guns that you most likely won’t get when you complete the game. To get the Patriot, you need to be do a speed run on Big Boss Extreme. Good luck with that. I’ll enter the code.

Get Altair’s Costume for Solid Snake Without Being Good

MGS4 Altair

Having trouble getting the Assassin badge in Metal Gear Solid 4 but desperately want Solid Snake to look like Altair? You’re in luck, as Famitsu has published a code to unlock the cool costume for you.

As long as you have the Metal Gear Mk. II, you’ll be all set. And if you don’t, you’re less than 20 minutes into the game. Shape up. Anyway, to unlock the Altair costume, go to the camoflauge menu and enter the code “aottrykmyn”. That’s it. Also, if you enter “jmsotsynrn” you’ll get the Type 17 pistol.

Go fire up MGS4 and give it another play through. See how much you get noticed by enemies with that costume. My guess is stealth goes out the window.

Metal Gear Online Rewards Shop Opens for Business

MGO Reward Shop Logo

Finally a glimmer of hope in the problematic world that is Metal Gear Online. The Reward Shop is now open. Finally.

This should have launched a couple weeks ago when the Gene Expansion came out, but server issues caused everything to go haywire. You can now check it out either on the web or in game (which is technically on the web anyway). Make sure you remember your Game ID and password… I don’t.

You earn Reward Points in official matches of MGO, so playing will get you some cool stuff. Somehow, I have a feeling a lot of people just don’t care.
