To me it looks there's an emphasis on co-op.

Fuck that.

I thought this was going to a pure stealth action Metal Gear title.

according to Famitsu, this is just from the multiplayer/co-op stuff.

The focus of the Famitsu update is on the game's multiplayer cooperative component. This area of the game allows for two to four players to team up to clear missions.

Players will have to work together in a variety of ways for this area of the game. Screenshots show one player using the other player as a step to reach a higher platform. Another screen shows one player holding up a closing door while the other player runs inside.

Players can also save their allies. In one screen, we see one player reviving another player through CPR. Will there be mouth to mouth as well?

Kojima and crew have come up with some unique systems to facilitate multiplayer play. If you make your character put his hand on the back of another player's character, the two characters will be connected. When one moves, the other will follow automatically.

Some screens show a mysterious red ring surrounding two characters. While Famitsu doesn't say for sure, it seems that when these rings are overlapping, the two characters can share weapons and equipment.

Obviously, the multiplayer support suggests the strong possibility for strategic play. A few examples in Famitsu show players teaming up with multiple types of guns, allowing for long distance and close-range fire. One screen shows one character grabbing an enemy from behind after the enemy had been alerted to the other player approaching from the front.

they probably want to show that off here since it's new for the series.  TGS they'll probably show off single player.

How is that a good thing?

this won't be any different.

This actually looks like something that I would try, as opposed to every other MGS game that looks like garbage. The co-op looks like fun

the gameplay could have been condensed into 2 minutes of footage instead of being drawn out with intermittent wordplay

if i can use a DS3 to play this like resistance psp then cool. if not then fuck this game

I don't know, they started putting in some real effort I guess (compared to the first two years of the system's life-cycle) now that they know exactly what sells on it, and what demographic they should cater. It's like the PSP has finally found an identity.

There were plenty of games in the first two years of the psp that had a lot of effort put into them, though. Like Lumines, Wipeout, Ridge Racer, Ultimate Ghouls and Ghosts, Megaman Maverick Hunter X, Mega Man Powered Up;etc

[Himu]

Does Monster Hunter even sell well in the west?
