if this were a 360 port of mgs4 they'd be able to ditch the sub hd res and do proper anti aliasing

i'd sell my ps3 copy in a heart beat for it.

to be truly honest i hope this game is for DS.

ohhhh that... dear swaggaz, you should know better than that.
When a company like apple is ripping you off with these kind of schemes the only thing that will do you justice is jailbreaking the shit out of your touch, download all the apps and games you want + the exclusive ones to jailbreaked iPods like what 80% of the world is doing.

I don't know how to do all that.  Last time I did the jailbreak stuff with my touch was back on 1.3 or whatever the number was.  I wouldn't know where to begin anymore.

I wouldn't be so psyched for MGS4 for the 360, aside from the epic neogaf thread of bitter tears. 

MGS4 Sub-something with actual gameplay modes would be awesome, though.

anyway, If any of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), you would know that they believe in honor.

It's so fucking stupid. Which other system electronics uses the power on symbol as an image? 360 even had ads with the whole thing. Plus it's green, which is the "symbol" color of the 360.

Why would it be DSi, or Iphone, or whatever, when they combine the color and the power button? It's supposed to hint at something people.

Would love to see a MGS spin off on the 360, get a new character and whatever. Oh and Kojima productions has 360 dev kits all over the place, why would they do that? Just for them to stand around?

I mean, I'm not saying it probably isnt 360 but " i + ! " means something. ! represents MGS, and i has to mean something else. Whatever the i means is what we can expect A Next Metal Gear to be.

I think you're reading too much into it. They are not that clever or smart, as indicated by their grammatically incorrect phrase "a next metal gear will be"
Title: Re: A NEXT METAL GEAR IS!?
Post by: WrikaWrek on December 05, 2008, 01:20:08 PM
tbh I'd love to see an official release (or an updated MGS) on the 360... it's just that the "i" is also obviously (at least to me) pointing at Ac!d.

and if it's an Ac!d title, I want it to be on portable device... thought the power button in that case doesn't make any sense.

Just watch it become "Ac!d on XBLA" and everybody lost interest, it's the only MG title that needs to generate this amount of hype to get the people's attention.

! Isn't associated with Acid in the MGS world. Why? Nobody gives a fuck about Acid. ! is the symbol of the enemy reaction in the MGS series, always was and always will be.

Now sure, the i could be for iPhone or DSi, but then the use of the power button in conjunction with the color green does nothing to hint at it.

Then again, why is the i there if it's for the 360? In the end, i hope it's for the 360 just out of spite for the fucktards Sfags that will be crying because of it.

Microsoft ported MGS1 to the PC and it was the absolute best version of the game hands down.

there's no way you can lose. 

MGS 360 - sony meltdown
MGS something on PS3 - 360 fan meltdown (probably not that good of one though...just people saying the game sucks anyway)
MGS Online expansion - Disappointmenton for all b/c nobody plays it and it sucks
MGS Nintendo - Probably some decent meltdowns all around

I still think the sony meltdown would be the best, since the PS3 fans are hypersensitive about that whole 3rd place thing.

the forum hysteria attendant on megatons is basically dull and mirthless, and you'd need the personality of an amirox to really enjoy it. i think most of the pleasure people claim to find in 'meltdowns' or 'bitter tears' is actually something more shameful than schadenfreude. if there's anything really funny about all this -- and there isn't -- it's that people are emotionally attached to their game consoles, and there's always plenty of that on forums, 'megatons' or no

It's just amazing how some interpret the "GENIUS" replies. I was one of those who laughed his ass off thinking that it was real, why I found it so funny and plausible is that it can be expected from a place like Japan.

I surely wasn't trying to hang on to something, I could care less about what the announcement turns out to be.

The thing is, why would Kojima be a genius because of it? Why not a distinguished mentally-challenged fellow?

If it's not a spin off for the 360, it will be underwhelmaton.

I don't think it would make sense for MGS4 to go to 360. Start a new gig there within the MGS world instead.

But i guess that's asking too much of the idiots at Konami, and from kojima himself.
Title: Re: A NEXT METAL GEAR IS!?
Post by: WrikaWrek on December 06, 2008, 10:22:05 PM
What would be the best spinoff of the MGS series to be started (maybe exclusive to) the 360? gimme best case scenarios, like which part of the saga involving which characters?

Well, Raiden's story from MGS2 to MGS4 is a great source for a spin off. So they could explore that, showing the journey from Raiden post Mgs2 to Raiden MGS4.

I personally would love to see a new main character, as we see in MGS4, FOX hound has been restarted, so why not have a new character? Would love to see a "bad guy" playing for the good team in Fox Hound, set during the MGS2/MGS4 events. Heck Snake could even appear.

A bad mothafucka, none of that "green" shit, or "metal gearrrr?" shit anymore, a cold ass son of a gun. And then give him his own series. Like Jedi Outcast.
Title: Re: A NEXT METAL GEAR IS!?
Post by: WrikaWrek on December 06, 2008, 10:39:33 PM
What about the story of Major Zero from 3 > 4? the protagonist can be Ocelot for example. Speaking of Ocelot, they can literally squeeze three games from his backstory/history. What do you guys think about that?

I personally don't care about Ocelot's backstory, he works as a villain, but he's no main lead. And the time period isn't that fun anyway.

Regarding Major Zero, i guess he could work, in the sense that one of the objectives of the new main character would be to find Major Zero, imagine if he even worked with Eva to rescue raiden and search for the body parts to "revive" big boss, imagine if he was the one who found major Zero.

There's a lot of room, but it all depends on having a main character that can carry a new series, a character that is different from Snake. Again i would love to see the whole "villain" playing on the good side.

I think he wants MGS4 on 360 or something, but is angry at Konami for not putting it out and only teasing it, except they never actually teased it and it was all speculation since months ago that it would be on the 360 was from forums and kotaku.

It will be a new Metal Gear game, either Ac!d or otherwise. They wouldn't say it's the next metal gear if it was referring to MGS4.

Plus, didn't we already discuss that MGS4 would be too big to play well at all on the 360? I guess it is possible now because of the hard disc install, but didn't we already hear enough bitching about mandatory installs? It would have to be a full mandatory install for the 360.

It will be Ac!d or something, except next-genned up and using cards from MGS4 as well. Or, it could be the new Metal Gear series Kojima was talking about that he wasn't going to be in charge of.

It will be a new Metal Gear game, either Ac!d or otherwise. They wouldn't say it's the next metal gear if it was referring to MGS4.

Plus, didn't we already discuss that MGS4 would be too big to play well at all on the 360? I guess it is possible now because of the hard disc install, but didn't we already hear enough bitching about mandatory installs? It would have to be a full mandatory install for the 360.

It will be Ac!d or something, except next-genned up and using cards from MGS4 as well. Or, it could be the new Metal Gear series Kojima was talking about that he wasn't going to be in charge of.


MGS4 "substance" would be a "next" metal gear release for Konami.

We discussed that MGS4 would be too big to play well at all on the 360? Who's we?  :lol Ugh, take away the stupid ass videos at the beginning, compress the audio, and now you have a game that could fit in 2 or 3 dvds no problem.

'next' would seem to suggest a new game rather than any version of mgs4, but the first thing you get from 'a next metal gear is' is that whoever wrote it doesn't speak english (unfortunately the various people who've translated the metal gear games don't quite speak english either -- i have it on the authority of A CERTAIN TIM ROGERS that mgs has memorable and properly colloquial dialogue in japanese)

^same here.  except it's gotten pretty cool recently with the new usage of "fuck" words.
hey guys.  just wanted to chime in and say that i won't be eating konami or kojima's table scraps.  they can all fuck themselves with a wooden dildo and get infected ass splinters.  i've got games to play, one's that are out and actually usable on my systems, and don't feel like wasting time thinking about what may or may not come out - only, in all likelihood, to be disappointed. 

let me know when some substantial news comes along. 

i don't even know what this means.

I think he wants MGS4 on 360 or something, but is angry at Konami for not putting it out and only teasing it, except they never actually teased it and it was all speculation since months ago that it would be on the 360 was from forums and kotaku.



for the most part, yes.  i want news to come out, not teasers, and anyone that uses a large franchise to tease the loyal fan base and bring up thier hopes can stick a hard, wooden, table leg in their butthole.  rather than wasting time speculating, i will be playing video games.

That's true. The possibility that it could be a "Subsistienceiest" or something to that nature is good.

Although, for me, it wouldn't make too much sense to make a "special edition" of a game with compressed audio and less cutscenes.

I just said no stupid, unnecessary, meaningless made up T.V ads. There's lik 4 or 5 of them right? Before the game starts, at HD resolution, they are probably taking up like 6 GB alone.

lets not even get started on this...all that needs to be said, for the whole game, is that Kojima has never heard of editing and nobody on his team had the heart to stand up to him.  It's like writing the first draft of a paper you are completely excited about--you usually write way too much, go way past the page limit, and need to cut out a lot before it gets focused and more coherent.

I'm speaking PURELY about how a game controls and how the shooting feels.  MGS4 was barely competent as a shooter, but I do think that Payton helped push the controls into "manageable" territory, which is pretty damn good for a Japanese game with shooting elements.

Shoulda stayed there, i know directing an Halo game must be like "whoa" kind of position but i think he had found himself a nice spot at Kojima productions because, well it was pretty easy to make MGS gameplay better, and i think he would gain relevance in time, and maybe even direct a MGS game of his own. Now, he went to a Halo property, and i personally don't see what he can bring to the table that will be unexpected, and if the game is a bomb then i think he's gonna fall pretty hard.

Capcom is the most Americanized of the big Japanese 3rd party developers and they are just now figuring out good shooter mechanics in their Japanese-developed games.  Lost Planet didn't really get it right, and RE5 appears to almost get it right.

As far as Associate Producer, I have no fucking clue.  They're probably doing a little bit of everything from grunt work to project management to press to achievements.  It seems less like a creative position and more like a lower-level management position.

It's too early for them to really have done anything legit.  Plus Konami didn't have the resources to fund stuff until MGS4 returns came in.

Though a new PSP game would've been nice.  Either Ac!d 3 or PO2.  Probably will be something MGS at next E3.

ICO PS3 PORT?!?!?!

It looks like the katakana says Merry Christmas. I'm guessing the card says "Merry Christmas from Team ICO" or something.

Konami is jumping on the iPhone bandwagon.  Hey, if this means a decent game or two, I'll give them a shot.  It's not like they should cost much.

Does it really matter how it's doing in Japan anymore?  They are going after a larger market.

:( I wanted that 360 port.

Now those rich Billionare PS3 owners can play a new MGS game on each of their 7 ipod touches!

Looks better then Portable Ops by the way, lol PSP
. It's probably less boring them MGS4 too, lol PS3.

Edit: Actually, it looks like the Metal Gear Solid version of Link's Crossbow Training on the wii. lol, Kojima. Oh and is Silent Hill made by the collective?

Remember Carmack said that the iphone is more powerful than both handhelds so it should be expected.


More White knight review info

Summary:
Lots of optional content.
Big boss battles.
The combat system is simplistic.
Online chat has some issues that the reviewer hopes get patched in the future.
Reviewer #1 mentioned that he wished there was an autorun option because it's hard to chat and fight at the same time.

Offline play is balanced.
You can create your own combos. Fighting is fun.
The SNS system is difficult to use, in the future it would be nice if they patched it.

A beautiful world with huge monsters and intense battles.
Descriptive narrative and events in the single player mode.
The combat system can be repetitive.
Armor synthesis to easily strengthen weapons, is good.


Not complex, easy to get into.
Creating combos is fun, however, the way the menu works could be more polished.
The online mode's future depends on if they upgrade it.
For the time being, the chat function is inconvenient and needs improving.




actually doesn't sound that bad (except online seem to have some nags) but i'm interested in hearing some user impressions (bebpo)

Kojima is awesome.  Not only it is on the iphone to piss people off, it's just a flash game where you draw a line from Snake to the enemy.

What the fuck?!?  The first game had issues, but Dark Cloud 2 was one of the best games I played on the PS2.  And Jeanne D'arc fucking rocks.

I second Jeanne Darc. Not a terribly deep game, but it is fun and the presentation is top notch on the PSP. Absolutely kills FFT in every way.

Sony should really make PSPhone ffs.

I think that's a horrible idea.  History has proven that you can have a good gaming device with buttons or a good phone, but not both.  How do you propose to bridge the gap?
Title: Re: A NEXT METAL GEAR IS!?
Post by: Brehvolution on December 17, 2008, 11:10:04 AM
The idea of a PSPhone makes me think that it will ultimately be a device that will be too big to carry around all the time.

Hey guys.

Click on "SP Mission:02." (http://www.konami.jp/mgs4/us/top.html)


It's the same flash game on Konami's MGS4 site, just with five extra stages. :rofl

hahahahaha

the flash game is pretty fun tho

I'm still not convinced that it a good idea, one functionality will always be bad compared to the other. I say buy a phone to call and a handheld to play games.

Once the iPhone convinces me that the games are worthwhile I might change my mind, but so far I won't. I mean Sony has yet to prove to me that the PSP is a competent video and music player (currently it's not).

The iPhone is a great phone/browser/email/video/audio/calendar device.  The games (some of which are actually pretty good) are just gravy.

Any proposed PSPhone will just be too damn big.
