The MGS trailer at E3 was brilliant and funny.....its gonna be an amazing game beacause it looked photo realistic even on PS2
 
Yeah, MGS3's graphics still amaze me at times. Moreso than GT4's.
 
yep its always a benchmark for what a new peice of hardware can do. just hope its as good as 1 & 3 because 2 wasnt that good.

I'm looking more forward to see the new Tekken , GT5 , Motorstorm , and RE5.
A MGS is another favourite ofcourse.

True but the topic is about what will see in the next few days not months years. We all want to see those other games, But one we will see next week 👍
 
MGS4 is going to be great as a intro to PS3 (it'll probably release a year after the console) but what I'm REALLY looking forward to is MGS5 hopefully, as I think that will be true testament to PS3.

Also I can't wait to see what kind of "real world" kojima has planned, as his focus is no longer being the best looking game, but a real living breathing world. I'm pumped to find out.
 
The only MGS4 thing you will see at TGS I expect will be a short part of the intro mates.

OMG! You're kidding! No WAY!


gosh...and here I was thinking they would have finished it by now...I'm such a gullable guy.... :grumpy:
 
It doesn't really matter if we see part of the intro or not. Kojima always uses the game engines for all the cinematics is his games so what we see is what we will get (only a little bit better).
 
The game is in its very early stages of development. Maybe just past the concept stage. Therefore , I'm not expecting to see something that fully exploits the new hardware.
 
I hope they show a bit of the "no place to hide" enviorment in action. Parked cars that leave the parking lot, moving tanks, jet planes, curtains, doors, boxes, industrial equipment, etc. I can't wait.

I also can't wait to see what Solid Snake is going to look like. It was nice seeing him in much better detail in MGS2:SOL and HGS3:SE compared to MGS.

To bad they wont release any pics before the release of the video in two more weeks, or so.
 
I'm gonna try and design a new snake for next week's sketchbook assignment.

I really want to see what they're going to do with this theme, though. I have a feeling this is going to be an extremely urban environment. Kind of like how Karkand in BF2 is set up, except western and populated.

Dood, the TGS is 16-18, not two weeks away :P

And I think the "no place to hide" theme has already been explained. Kojima said he wanted a living/breathing environment, something that isn't stale. That perfectly explains no place to hide. Everything will be active, you'll have to constantly be on the move, because people will be everywhere, objects will be moved/or move, cars will drive away, guards will take trucks to other locations. I expect to see everything in this, meaning it will be the PINNACLE of espionage action.

I also hope that they do not include a radar, I really enjoyed how MGS3 worked, and though Cammo more than likely won't be in MGS4, I'd like to see a new system, because the Cammo > All. It would be awesome if MGS4 was online with cammo available in jungle invironments. Can you imagine the birds freaking out if you sneak up on them, giving away your position, or animals making noises, branches breaking, running into spider webs, etc...god...if only MGS3 was saved for PS3....:(

You know BF2 and MGS 4 are 2 different games.

Agreed. Kojima probably notice how people sit (like me) and watch how the guards move for 10, 20 minutes, and then make their move. That's not realistic in the real world.

Me too, it made some very interesting moments, even though I would have killed for a radar in those moments.

I don't think he does :dunce:

Seriously, what was the point of that post tho? He knows that, his point was that the enivironment will be more similar, meaning things move, and you'll have to keep active...I'm not sure what you are trying to get across with this post...what was your point? It was a bit too...blunt to convey anything besides the obvious.
 
Of course they're two different games. Jeez.

You see how Karkand in BF2 is all cluttered houses and urban and stuff? With "guards" (bf2 players) circulating through the map? Make connections next time.

Thank you, con, for understanding my point.
 
Some new MGS4 info...

Metal Gear Solid 4 is said to be a cross between Rambo and Black Hawk Down. Really. “…with Solid Snake plunged into the middle of a high-intensity urban war zone where artillery is taking out cover all around him and AI controlled "sidekicks" fight alongside him as if they were actual human-controlled characters…” Tokyo Game Show later this week promises a closer look at MGS4, so expect further updates then.
 
TOLD you it would be Karkandized. Hahaha. I can't wait for the TGS.
 
This sounds very cool. This is on thing I like about the MGSseries, each game has offered a rather different experience in locations as well as story. Some sequels just givemoresimilar leevls but Kojima isn't afraid to try new things and push the direction of the series for each game.
 
cant wait, as soon as vids come out, plz post here or i will post if i find any :D

I like MGS games, due to the real situations you find yourself in, and the little things you can do, like the first time i saw that in MS2 you could shoot the plasma sceen and see it go all black, i was "thats cool" but then the things like using items like steam pipes and that to aid in fending off enemies was very nice indeed. Good level and game design along with great storyline and topped off with wicked graphics. defo one to watch out for.
 
I think this will be a solid title.

Online it will kick ass. I can imagine using survailance cameras to watch your enemy, or blasting down walls to find them. Or little things giving them away, like sounds/coughs, foot prints, blood trails, hot brass, shadows, other people giving away their position (possibly civillians? or maybe other teams looking at their own team mates?). The possibilities are just endless, and I think Kojima will exploit these before he exploits the visual power.
 
I can imagine, like, Saving Private Ryan...but with snake as a 3rd power caught in the middle. How insane would THAT be?

All I know is that I want to knife the hell out of people. MGS plus the ps3's power and blu-ray's storage is sure to be absolutely, mind-bogglingly, PHOENOMINAL.
 
He's starting to look like Big boss's pictures whe he's older. I say get rid of the porn tach though.

Can anyone translate any of that?
