Z.O.E was initially released in most territories with a playable demo version of ', the second installment of Kojima's popular stealth-based action game. Because of this association, initial sales figures could be counted as misleading as many buyers simply wanted the demo. Shortly before the game's release, the popular webcomic Penny Arcade wrote, "the Metal Gear Solid 2 demo will be released to stores very soon, and it even comes with some other game, which I thought was real nice of Konami."
