i really wish he would just get the message and cut down DRASTICALLY on the amount of cutscenes in the game.

I'm tired of the cutscenes. RE5 felt like fresh air when it came to the cut scene pacing--nice and short.
will buy day one regardless because i like the abuse
This is not at all surprising and yet completely awesome news.
Also, remake the first two MSX Metal Gear games.

Speaking of which... we didn't see the very beginning of the game in this demo. Is that something that you've addressed?
RP: Oh, the long cinematics?
Yeah.
RP: Yeah, that was the plan at the very beginning. Mr. Kojima understands that fans -- well, not fans, since fans probably enjoy the long cinematics -- but people criticized the game for having long cinematics. The original plan for MGS4 was to shorten those, but as the story got bigger and bigger, and as we had to fill in more and more information -- because this really is the last story of Solid Snake -- the cutscenes are pretty much what you expect from a Metal Gear game now.
I thought the first 1/2 to 2/3 of MGS4 was awesome, but then it got weird.
I'd actually like a Raiden prequel set between MGS2 and MGS4...
Kojima probably feels the need to take another crack at the series since he just took the crown of "Worst MGS" from Dyack.
MGS5 needs to be a sequel to Portable Ops. Let me play as Big Boss again plz
So how official is this announcement? Or are we just putting pieces together?
Cause he mentioned it in his keynote?
Is there a way to play MGS4 with classic MGS controls? Because MGS4's suck.Why would you want to play the game with classic MGS controls eh? MGS 4 controls are SO SO much better then all the previous games. Play the game for more then a hour, you'll get used to it.
I have had the game since like December and have not played it for more than an hour.

MGS4 was just too heavy on the cutscenes for me, which I did not expect.

Said nothing about a PS3 installment though.
And they are probably gonna start a new story arc, so they have 0 reason to stay just on Ps3.

That quote is about MGS4 development and what they tried to do :P
With classic MGS I could actually crouch in a locker. You can't do that shit in MGS4 it seems. You just stand there, making lockers a pointless hiding spot because guards always flash lights in the vents.

From what I've played it's MGS3-lite as well.
How am I backwards? RE5 is amazing.
RE5 is amazing, you take that back!
That part was fucking amazing. I wasn't even sure it happened it was so bad.
RE5 has Mercs.
Does MGS4 have Mercs?
RE5 doesn't need that though.
RE5 doesn't need that though.
MGS4 doesn't need to be able to DUCK when in a locker, either.
That's funny most of the long cutscenes eg the briefings, where way TO long, and badly in need of some editing.Quotei really wish he would just get the message and cut down DRASTICALLY on the amount of cutscenes in the game. i'm sure he (or someone at konami) realizes this because of the embargo bs with mgs4, but i guess we'll see what happens as we get more info.
IIRC, they did initially intend to cut down on cutscenes for MGS4, it's just that when they got down to actually making the cutscenes, there was too much they wanted to put in and they couldn't do it.

Are they even lockers in MGS 4? :lol i forgot.RE5 doesn't need that though.

Yes it does. I could do it in MGS2 and 3. Even Twin Snakes lets you do it.
I'm confused at the thread title... MGS "game"?
I'm confused at the thread title... MGS "game"?
Has anyone timed the cutscenes in MGS4? Some random site I googled up said 9.5 hours, but I want to know if there's a definitive number.

Eh? MGS 4 has way more actual gameplay then the first two MGS games, and the first two MGS games can only be finished in only 6-10 hours IIRC. (and at least a 1/3 of that length is spent watching cutscenes and codec conversations).I'm confused at the thread title... MGS "game"?

It's definitely at least 50% of the total game length, which is fucking RIDICULOUS. The other MGS games had a lot of cutscenes but they also had a lot of gameplay.
I dunno. I had 20ish hour playtimes on MGS2-4, and 4 definitely felt the shortest.I had at least 20ish hours of playtime on MGS 3-4, but only 6-10 on MGS 1-2.
I think MGS1 I finished more quickly, and it definitely is cutscene heavy, but I don't remember it feeling as bad as MGS4. I could be wrong. It's been years. There may have been more cutscenes, but I don't think they were as long at all.

i hope this game comes out and is shit and we never hear of kojima again. so fucking sick of him
By the way, Raiden Cyborg in MGS4 sucked even bigger dicks than bitch Raiden in MGS2. Seriously, only a nerdy, dorky, distinguished effete fellow, japafag, fat ass bitch would like his shit in MGS4.
Kojima had nothing to do with MGS staying on the ps3.
If the new game is gonna be centered around Raiden, then get ready for Matrix Reloaded, Advent Children & DMC3 level of ridiculous. Like 10x MGS4's.
Whether that's bad or not depends on your taste, though I have to say, if that still makes you feel tingly inside then you're lame and I don't wanna be your friend anymore.

snake is told by medical types that they found a cure for his aging, given new mission, people pick him up , life as normal, putta putta putta machine gun sneaky death, Raiden is the bad guy for some reason, Naomi isn't really dead, drebin is a robot, and the REAL bad guy pulling the strings is an old and bitter REAL snake who isn't cured. You are a clone, you are the first experiment to proove that the ultimate snake can be reproduced at will. War economy. Patroits shoot nukes at moon to kill cheese monsters. 5 hour cutscenes. Game of the year. Tie in to game produced by best looking female in the industry at the time.
woah...future slip.
Kojima has so much talent, it really is a shame to see him waste it all on this and Boktai.
