This was a really awesome April Fool's thing by both Konami and Ubi. Looks so awesome, too.

Okay, EB hater forces are GOOOO

[y2kev]

Already looks more fun then MGS4. This and Jade almost guarantee a 360 port!

It IS MGS4, you distinguished mentally-challenged fellow.

[BlueTsunami]

joke failed

[demi]

zzzzzzzzzz

[FatalT]

Altair should be an alternate outfit or something in MGS4.

[demi]

the IGN Zelda Movie has more gameplay than this

if this is what we're to expect with MGS4, then lol

[GilloD]

I know they're fucking joking and whatever, but this is one of those times when you should backtrack and realiz ethat your "Ha ha" joke is serious bank and a great fucking idea.

[demi]

Why would you want Ass Creed in this crap? It should be vice versa, at least Snake would be in a good game

Because it'd be more interesting than Old Man Snake FIGHTING A GOVERNMENT CONSPIRACY in a world of MORAL AMBIGUITY and TEENAGE ANGST.

looks fucking amazing. chaos all around

like, when the gekko's finally come out

[drohne]

mgs4 is looking ridiculously great -- weirdly this is the best footage we've yet seen. jade must've given up the anal to get altair in there. and then kojima was like 'did you rike it?' ^_^

[MCD]

nope, kojima is gay.

[drohne]

that's why he demanded the pooper. and jade conceded, knowing this was the only way she'd ever have anything to do with a good game

[HyperZoneWasAwesome]

The FPS was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better then Assassins Creed also.

Way better.

[trippingmartian]

Awesome trailer, but why do the "gekkos" make animal noises?

Also I couldn't help but notice Solid Snake is lacking Altair's wall-scaling abilities. It really makes MGS4 seem so much more static as a stealth game.

The gekkos are supposed to sort of "disarm" people with the animal noises...hearing natural animal sounds is supposed to be unnerving and distracting-- somewhere between disarming and comforting, I guess.

[FancyFeast]

gekkos look like dogshit, worst model art in ages.



meatcubes look more subtle....

[FancyFeast]

shit textures as usual, no color, shit animation.

The gameplay looks like a failed emulation of last gen 3rd person shooting, some first person thing and a bowl of shit.

[demi]

looks good for a 360 game

[calcifer]

i honestly dont think mgs4 looks good and i dont like that they changed the formula...

and drawing attention to the best looking game of the generation so far (assassin's creed) is just foolish when your game doesn't even look just good

[FancyFeast]

I would love to see someone tell it like it is in that cigarillo thread.

Technically, it looked shit.

And from what we saw of the gameplay, it looks like a generic shooter... can you really spin that?

double post because that's how i roll

[FancyFeast]

Hill rolling animation WAS amazing though.   


I would love to see someone tear into that trailer like a too human thread.

ok

'lol mgs4 maybe it wouldn't be such a disgraceful shambles if that fat canadian phony spent less time mentioning authors he hasn't read to game journalists who've barely heard of them'

am i doing it right

[y2kev]

you aren't impressed with this, you think S-E's games are crap...

if you aren't watching Blurays, what's the point of having a PS3?

ps3 hiv makes your eyes see things softer and your unit suddenly becomes wagglish and feckless


this looks fuck awesome and I am so happy with this game right now. kojima said he was gonna make a change and he did and it looks fuckwow and fuck wow he probably did jade fuck wow

you know...assassin's creed did the 'one defining color for each area' thing too

[y2kev]

asscreed will probably be the better looking game (though not performing), but if you factor in the Next-Gen JappaHandicap, I'm super impressed with MGS4.

drohne, what do we know about 60fps in mgs4? yes/no? people are contradicting each other.

[MCD]

1111

and without the colors, cities would probably look the same with some minor differences here and there.

BUT WITH MGS4 UNIQUE 50GIGS TEXTURES, COLORS AIN'T NEEDED, NO?

[drohne]

i remember hearing that public demos of mgs4 were running at an unstable 60fps, but i don't know what they'll do with the final game

[MCD]

you can have 20 gigs of textures per area thanks to the CELL ^tm chip and BLU-RAY ^tm storage medium

drohne, what do we know about 60fps in mgs4? yes/no? people are contradicting each other.

The cutscenes seemed closer to 30fps.  Since gameplay usually has ever lower framerates, I'd expect the game to be running in 30fps.  

I'm a big supporter of 60fps gaming but 30fps is acceptable for a game like MGS4.  

[Oblivion]

i remember hearing that public demos of mgs4 were running at an unstable 60fps, but i don't know what they'll do with the final game

I don't know about any recent builds, but the one I played at Eforall was at a fairly constant 30.

[Smooth Groove]

Didn't the PS2 have texture smoothing for PS1 games?  I don't know what it did since I've never played PS1 games on my PS2. 

[MCD]

spoiler (click to show/hide)

What are the different enhancements the PS2 can make to PSX games?
------------------------------------------------------------------
Two emulation options can be set in the PS2's main menu (hit triangle at the
Browser/System Configuration screen, then hit triangle again with PlayStation
Driver highlighted).  One enables faster loading of PSX games utilizing the
PS2's 32X-speed CD drive (as opposed to the double-speed of the PSX); the
other filters textures on polygons to make them look "smoother".

Unlike the DVD and System Configuration options, the PSX emulation options
are not saved when the system is turned off, so they'll need to be reset each
time.  This is not as bad as it sounds; since more than a few PSX games
function incorrectly with the options on, you wouldn't want to leave them on
all the time anyway.

How do these enhancements work?
-------------------------------
Fast loading is pretty obvious--the PS2 sends data to the RAM faster,
shortening some load times.  However, some games are highly tuned to the
PSX's characteristic loading time, resulting in errors if this option is
enabled.

The texture smoothing process seems to be bilinear filtering.  It helps
prevent pixellization when textures get up close (though it can still be seen
on particularly low-res textures), as well as correct aliasing in textures
(diagonal lines appear as such, instead of "stair-steps").  However, the
enhanced texture smoothness can sometimes throw the non-filtered actual edges
of the polygons into sharper relief; also, perspective correction is still
not performed, so the texture "warping" seen on the PSX continues to rear its
ugly head.

How well do these enhancements function?
----------------------------------------
For games that work with the fast loading function, load times are typically
reduced by about 25% (e.g. from eight seconds to six), but results vary from
game to game.

Texture smoothing works best on games with a lot of texture-mapping
(obviously), like Vagrant Story or Final Fantasy IX.  Games with software
filtering or heavy gouraud shading (e.g. Final Fantasy VII or any Crash
Bandicoot game) will show less or no improvement.

The smoothing often causes vertical "hairlines" in games that use 2D sprites;
the problem is especially pronounced when the sprites move against a 2D
background.  It's highly recommended that you turn texture smoothing off for
pure 2D games like Castlevania and Silhouette Mirage.  Finally, 2D-on-3D
hybrid games such as Strider 2 and Xenogears gain the most from texture
smoothing, as the characters are filtered as well as the environments, and
hairlines aren't as noticeable on the 3D backgrounds.

All in all, I find these "enhancements" very disappointing.  Fast loading
seems to crash more games than it helps, and texture smoothing doesn't fix
texture warping, the PSX's biggest graphical shortcoming.  There's good news,
though: the PlayStation driver is stored in firmware and could be updated via
a driver disc, much like Sony is doing with the DVD driver.  So, maybe Sony
will release an updated PlayStation driver that enables better enhancements,
or a third party will cook a good one up.

I don't get why Meryl was dissed by the same people that didn't mind the butterface in Uncharted. 

[y2kev]

elena isn't a butterface imo

her face is the only good looking thing about her...she's kind of too realistic to be a game gurl. at least those featured in play magazine.
