First launched in 2008, Metal Gear Solid 4 met critical acclaim. However, it arrived before trophy support was mandatory inPS3 games, and ever since fans have been crying out to Konami to patch in the virtual incentives. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Metal Gear series, Konami have finally decided to patch trophies in. An update will go live on the 6th of August in Japan and ‘early August’ in the west. It will add trophies and fix some load time issues that fans have been experiencing. The patch will affect current copies of the game, and on August 30th there will be an announcement of a re-package that will include trophies on the disc as well as maybe some extra content in line with Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance and Metal Gear Solid 3 Subsistance.
Here’s the list of what you could be earning:
| Bronze | You enjoy all the killing, that’s why. | Killed many enemies in one area, and vomited. |

It’s been pointed out that the above trophies don’t constitute enough ‘points’ to fill a whole platinum, so presumably certain story related hidden trophies have been omitted. I missed the Metal Gear Solid series first time around but having recently finished the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, I’m all over this!
