Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Delayed…Again

Konami of Japan announced in a press release today that they had delayed the release of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots until the second Quarter of 2008, instead of the spring 2008 release date (which itself was a delay, because they were going to originally release Metal Gear Solid 4 this winter).

Granted, they insisted that they have decided to delay the release “in order to make further improvements of the quality of the game and provide even greater enjoyment for more customers worldwide.”

Further improvements of the quality? I hope so. Until MGS4 comes out, there aren’t too many reasons to own a PS3 for gaming purposes. Well, alright, there is at least one. Heck, if you can’t wait until then, at least you can use it as a Blu-ray player.
