HOBOKEN - Konami reported today that the latest installment in their critically acclaimed video game series, Metal Gear Solid 4, hit the 4.5 million copies sold benchmark.
That is, they would have announced that had 4.5 million actually been a real benchmark worthy of praise. Konami apparently couldn't hold out until 5 million, like a good game would have sold, but hey, congrats on being not quite good enough Metal Gear Solid.
We'll keep you posted for when MGS4 hits 4.6 million, 4.7 million, 4.82 million and of course the all important milestone 4.9234 million units sold. Oh and in case you weren't picking up the sarcasm, we're mocking Konami pretty hard. Even if they were one of the few major gaming companies to post a profit this season. $195,000,000 to be exact....should we throw a parade?
I've got dibs on playing guitar freaks in the marching band.
