I know the 1st is a big day for gamers, and I keep seeing people say Max is going to fail releasing the same day as TPP. So, who's actually picking it up? I know I am, every video had looked solid and the game just looks like a lot of fun.

[Vincent Grayson]

Too many games. If it reviews well, I'll grab it at half price in a few months.

From Sept 1 on, there's basically no room in my schedule for "maybe" games until 2016.

 

[Dawg]

I really want to play it but I feel like it's a loss of money.

With the way games drop in price these days, once I finish MGSV, it will already be cheaper.

 

[Fjordson]

I am. I'll be playing a lot of MGS V and I'm not totally sure Mad Max will be worth the $60, but it looks pretty neat. Hoping for some surprising open-world greatness like Sleeping Dogs.

Same between MGS5 and TTK 2 weeks after, Mad Max is gonna be bargain bin status for me. No point in picking up a game at full price when I know I won't touch it for a month or 2

 

[backflip10019]

Still only halfway through the Witcher 3. I'll probably pick it up further down the line during a sale.

 

[meptrep]

Nah, I'd rather play MGSV

 

[lawnchair]

will buy later. probably after price drop.

 

[daviyoung]

No, there's so little buzz around it and I'm getting Star Trek vibes.


Going to be a Steam sale if anything.

 

[viveks86]

I was planning to get it to keep me warm till MGS V PC came after 2 weeks. And then Konami fucked it all up. Based Konami!

 

[CappyHamper]

It looks great, I would totally be getting this if it had released at some other time.
But as a long time MGS fan there is just no chance.

I'll pick it up in a few months.

 

[Sinatar]

There is too much else I'll be busy with, plus I need to wait and find out if WB shit the bed with the PC version again.

 

[Newlove]

It looks okay. Like your run of the mill open world game with no mechanics that stick out as unique or special to me other than the petrol situation (which doesn't seem to be much of a concern when playing). I'll wait for the reviews.

 

[Swarley]

I'm super intrigued, but I just can't pick it up over MGS V. If it doesn't take me all month to complete MGS, I'll absolutely pick it up at some point during September. If not, I'll pick it up later in the year when it's on sale or something.

 

[thelatestmodel]

the game just looks like a lot of fun.

So does MGS and I'm sorry but that wins.

Only so much time in the day, I can only really justify one launch day price tag because I'll only have time to play one game.

 

[Sanjuro]

Absolutely not touching the MGS game, so lucky for Max I may check it out. Still looks like it can go either way in terms of quality.

 

[Acquiescence]

I'll definitely buy it at some point this year if it reviews well.

 

[x24hrs2livex]

I've been on the Mad Max hype train since the first gameplay trailer. Already have it preloaded, just waiting for midnight on Monday.

 

[Unit24]

No, there's so little buzz around it and I'm getting Star Trek vibes.

I don't think 70 minute gameplay videos count as "little buzz".

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

preordered it on steam a while ago wish they would turn on preload soon

 

[FrsDvl]

I'm so tempted to... Just don't know when I'll ever get around to playing it, with MGS V coming out on the same day. I might just wait a while and get it in a few months, but we'll see.

 

[Numb]

Interested but MGS tho.

 

[Jarrod38]

Going to have to pass because of MGS V. They should have either delayed the game or launched it early in August.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Eh, I'm still not 100 per cent sold and the recent footage didn't exactly grab me by the balls and demand I buy it either...

 

[Ledhead]

I am. Helps that I got it cheaper from the Amazon E3 deal, but I still really want to play it as a big fan of that universe

 

[eshwaaz]

I'm in. I think it looks tremendously fun. I really enjoyed Avalanche's last two games; here's hoping they'll deliver again.

Assuming it's a quality game, I really hope the "gotta release on the same day that the movie is available on DVD/Blu-ray" strategy doesn't end up biting them in the ass. MGS is going to be huge, and they may get smothered by it.

 

[Chill Penguin]

It's MGS time, and a new metal gear game is an event and spectacle that will devour all my time. Unfortunately mad max will end up being a game I get for cheap next year during a slow period. If it reviews well that is.

 

[labaronx]

Liked what i saw from it. Have it and mgsv preordered and ready to download should be fun going between the two

 

[RK9039]

Bought it from GMG already.

 

[Alethebeer]

Since i don't buy Metal Gear day one (i have to play 1,2,3,4 before) i think i'm gonna buy at launch for pc. Summer was all backlog, something new does not hurt.

 

[De_Legend]

Nope, maybe one day at 20$ max.

 

[dmshaposv]

Kinda sent to die being released on the same date as the biggest video game release of the year.

 

[Skelter]

After Mortal Kombat and Arkham Knight I'm not buying anything day 1 from WB.

 

[kewlmyc]

Between Metal Gear Solid V and DanganRonpa Another Episode, I just can't afford to.

Also Fury Road comes out the same day. Yeah, that's a lot of money.

 

[bigkrev]

Nope, will be 30ish dollars on console by Black Friday, and it's coming out 2 weeks too late for it not to get lost in the shuffle

 

[M.W.]

The teamcoco stream was great yesterday. I think the video can be re watched on their page.

[hydruxo]

I'll probably pick it up on Black Friday. I just can't pay full price for it right now, I want to hear impressions for it first too.

 

[Besaide]

Previews looked good so I pre-ordered it along with MGSV. Here's hoping the rest of the game holds up.

 

[george_us]

Might grab it when it's $20. From September onward is MGSV time.

 

[daviyoung]

I don't think 70 minute gameplay videos count as "little buzz".

Not sure what the length of gameplay videos has to do with it

 

[shungokusatsu]

I was but cancelled my preorder after seeing the awful pop-in issues and AC gameplay errands. Between TPP and TTK I have no room, so it'll take - price drop to attract me again.

 

[Nyteshade517]

already bought it (and MGSV)...got them ready on my Steam account to download next week

 

[Jeremy]

I'm highly interested and I really want to support it Just Cause but I probably won't purchase on Day 1. If possible I want to get it before sale though.

 

[SwiftDeath]

I will

 

[lighthouse777]

I am

 

[RustyNails]

ME. SHINY AND CHROME BOX

 

[SimpleCRIPPLE]

If it would have come out a month earlier, I would have been all over it.

Unfortunately for it, I think the game is going to get lost in with all the big releases.

At least this means we should be able to get it for a nice discount a few weeks after release.

 

[TrebuchetGames]

Yeah I am getting madmax day 1, got it for £34 which I think is a bargain. Was going to get MGS.. but I missed a price cut on that, and so will wait now.

So just Until Dawn and Mad Max the next two weeks

 

[shinobi602]

If I had more cash to throw around, I would, but unfortunately, paying tuition, bills etc leaves me strapped and I'm only picking up MGSV.

I feel it'll be a Black Friday sale anyway. I'll pick it up then.

 

[Unit24]

Not sure what the length of gameplay videos has to do with it

It shows that the developers are confident enough to show off tons of raw gameplay, and it gives you enough time to see that it's not a steaming pile of shit like Star Trek. I honestly don't see how you even made the comparison.
