I'm so angry if that's on the Fox Engine for the cut scenes. Because goddamn that could be a good remake.

Is this some kind of weeaboo slot machine/pachinko thing?  Still going to be better than MGS4 no matter what it is.

Pachinko hardware is almost never cutting edge. Many are still using souped-up Dreamcast hardware. I'm guessing current specs are lower by far than even PS4's, so my guess is they're pre-rendered movies.

When I saw the lighting in that first shot, I honestly thought it was a live-action sequence, but then the character models gave it away -- and then the world's worst lipsync animator went off in the paint.

Well, I mean the Fox Engine runs on a toaster for PC... so... it's not out of the realm of possibility. But man, I want those models.

so with these pachi games,  is it like a movie where winning just shows you the next scene, or is it set up like a game where you're presented with win /lose scenarios that are entirely dependent on a biased rng?

Pachinko advertisements air on the TV regularly here. It's huge business. But that edit is not TV-ad length. That's likely running on in-parlor screens.

I can't believe it doesn't have EROTIC VIOLENCE like Castlevania.

They're saving it for the eventual Pachinko remake of MGSV obviously.

I was in a casino a while ago and about half of the video slot machines were made by Konami.

Why make games when you can make machines that literally suck money from people.
