Metal Gear Online servers officially shut down
Metal Gear Online is once again no more. Back in February, Konami announced that the servers would be shut down, and that day has finally come.
The online portion of Metal Gear Solid 4 had a notorious barrier of entry, as the sign-up process (which was separate from your PSN ID) was headache-inducing and the load times (not to mention the time it took to patch the game) were very long. It's no surprise that it wasn't as popular as it should have been.
If you pushed through the whole process, you would have been given a variety of goodies to play with as all of the extra content was made available for absolutely free for every player. The servers have been up and running for a good 4 years. It's a shame to see it go, despite it's problems, as it was a lot of fun. Perhaps we'll see it return someday.

It sucks that the servers are down, the online was actually really great. Just using a Konami ID to enter instead of PSN was dumb (like the article said.) Now then let's play the supposed anti-american (I don't get it either) and yet sad song : Here's to You.

I would have played more if not for the problems listed and the fact 4 years ago I had shit internet. But what I played was fun and it's always sad seeing a server shut down.

I am a hardcore MGS fan (no shit right?) but to tell you the truth I didn't like MGO. Only played a couple of matches. Still it's sad that it has to down because I'm sure some people enjoyed it. Approximately how many people were logged in? Does anyone know?

It's only really fun if you have the right group of people to play with. Most of, if not all of the matches were full of people who knew the game inside and out. If you get together with a bunch of idiots who just want to have fun, it's a blast.

i remember playing it for a few good months, tbh it was the first time playing in some kinda MP match, good times playing as snake and patting sleep soldiers on the back for their dog tags
