X-Play's going to be showing off some "never-before-seen" gameplay footage from Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for the PlayStation 3 tonight.
The folks over at the G4 show promise no teaser trailers, no cinematics, just 100 percent brand new in-game footage. If you're up for that sort of thing make sure to catch it tonight at 8 p.m. on G4. They show will also have some new gameplay of Silicon Knightâs Too Human for the Xbox 360 and hands-on with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for Xbox 360.

cant wait to see it.
New gameplay, huh? Time to bust out the Spoiler Armor...this is gonna be big.
...probably.
Don't forget the new characters from Force Unleashed here:

@Archaotic: I'm hoping they don't spoil too much. It would be nice if they showed off a new location, even if it was for 3 seconds. I would still be happy. I know Kojima and Konami are trying to prevent major spoilers from going around, so hopefully it won't be too bad.
I'm all for it. Maybe a new area other than that Middle East setting? That would be nice.
I assume you nice people will be reporting on it for us foreigners....please? :D
Argh! I may have to turn the TV. (Never happens unless playing a game.)
Turn on the TV I mean. =)
@Spoony Bard: Is that a Stargate in the background? I ask because that would be the best cross-over. Ever.
We don't get G4 in Ireland (at least not with NTL). Is there any other way to watch this? I'd like to see some Snake action. :]
just when you thought you could completely forget about g4. prolly just going to watch it on thier website or gametrailers.com, though i do miss x-play and sasuke
noice cant wait!
@DigitalHero: Lol, I'm the same. I hardly ever watch TV shows anymore, but this might.
Spoiler shield at maximum.Game already pre-ordered.Refrain from watching.
Man... The MGS4 news just keeps coming. I'm getting pretty psyched about the game. Maybe too much.
I really need to start thinking about something else...
@Fallible: looks like a brick wall.
Hopefully they flesh out the 'Metal Gear' part of the story. We know the Old Snake vs Liquid/Ocelot but whats the meat behind it this time...whats Metal Gear?
I remember the feeling of awe when I first saw MG: Ray on that VHS Japanese Trailer so many years ago I'm almost eager to see what Kojimas sick and pretty mind can come up with.
damn kojima just keeps hyping up this game.
I have been waiting for this game since it was announced, If he can find a way to top MG3 this would be perfection in my eyes.
@Highlander Wolf:
I am the same as you on this one..
June cant get here fast enough...
Hi, yeah so this has nothing to do with the topic, but im having issues with GTA IV.. my multiplayer isnt working. Played it at my friends place the first time because he lives nearer the store from where I bought the game. The multiplayer was working fine at his house but when I got home later and played it at MY house it just says connecting to game hst or whatever and then changes to "couldn't connect. please try again later" and its been saying that for 3 days now! i hope it wasn't because i played it at my friends house and now its only going to function there. plz help if youre smarter than me :)
@Fallible: Possibly. I didn't see that!
Wait, aren't you getting your ass chewed out by...
oh, no wait, that's over. :)
Oh and I live in Sweden btw. EU multiplayer might be having problems? Im in the dark here, plz assist :)
@Rincewind: try rockstars support forum m'dear!
I'm going to hold off on watching some of this stuff. This is a series that I don't want to spoil in anyway. I already feel like I know too much from the endless articles and trailers.
Then again, this is Kojima-san. Everything you think is going to happen will probably end up being a lie.
Xplay??
what the hell no GT-TV exclusive?
@Spoony Bard: Hah. I'm sure some people would like to look at it that way.
Anyway, I may have to look into this Stargate thing. I'm sitting on a goldmine for sure.
@Rincewind: Go here for Kotakus GTA coverage including issues with the ...
@sascha23: that's why I'm willing to watch. Nothing will be spoiled because Kojima will not let it be spoiled
@shaunomacx: sorry I meant Here
I love X-Play, but I'm on MGS4 media blackout. Won't be watching!
@Rincewind: So.... you couldn't have waited 2 minutes until the next GTA post showed up to say that there?
I'm not the only one who doesn't get g4 -- no big deal I'll just watch it online. I want to do my best to avoid spoiers, however.
hope they show some good footage of the Force Unleashed!! I can't wait to kick Stormtrooper and Jedi butt!!
Oh I know how this is going to be
*ridiculously awesome gameplay footage shoting something that people wanted to see forever*
*kojima appears on TV*
"did you like it? ;) ;)"
@shaunomacx: Thanx! some1 linked to a site saying it was down for a while but now it should be back up.. im gonna go and find out for myself now. thanx again :)
Cool but getting so damn close to release I actually prefer not to watch any further stuff especially gameplay.
I just want to experience a whole new game, not a game that I've seen a million times online in videos. That kinda takes some of the "AWESOME" factors from it when you finally play it.
The English & Japanese gameplay demos last year served me well and let me see what it's like. Also, MGO -> Old Snake -> I played it.
Very nice. Thanks for the heads up!
"What about gameplay for the xbox360 version" ?
XD
j/k
good, some actual gameplay and not a cutscene, should be good.
I am placing myself on Metal Gear Solid 4 information lock down. I'd love to see this video but I am cutting myself off from the game until the 12th. Maybe that way I'll have GTA4 pretty much played through.
I hope they podcast this because I get all my G4 stuff via Miro
I don't have digital cable or sat. :(
As a matter of fact, they've had world premier footage of Too Human the past 2 nights, plus demos with Dyack and the SK tech director on the combat system and character classes.
I was already looking forward to this game (yes, I played the entire demo at that infamous E3 and felt it was promising). The new footage is more polished by far than anything they've released up till now. The dual stick combat has been given a lot of variety- think geomety wars mixed with diablo- there are 18 different combos of melee and ranged weapon load outs plus 6 different character classes, each with alternate skill tree development. 120 slots in your inventory! Plus the dynamic camera is customizable- set it at different basic zooms (behind you if you're playing a gunner class for example, or high up if you're using the zippy berserker) and it'll go dynamic from there. Charging your spells with combo attacks is required, so even a healer will have to fight before he can heal.
Before, I figured Too Human would have a great story and serviceable but bland gameplay- looks like SK has really put a lot of work into making sure the gameplay mechanics are fun and action packed. Still no release date, though!
Let me guess, half way through they will cut to commercial, right?
I refuse to watch G4 for any reason.
Heh, no way am I helping g4's ratings.
Hmm. That footage didn't impress me at all. Not that it looks bad, but just ... why did they choose that segment to demo? The Mark II was decent, but the regular shooting gameplay was VERY typical MGS stuff. The graphics looked pretty good, but nothing mindblowing.
I'm sure the game will be good, though.
@liba:
Yeah, TH impressed this week. Unlike other games, it looks better and better as time goes on. Never played Diablo or PSO, so I have no idea if this type of game would be for me but I'm interested.
Link!
+ Watch video
I can't wait for this. BT-GAMES here in Pretoria(South-Africa) will have a midnight launch for the GAME so...I'll be standing in line waiting my arse of till they open up. Same as with GTA IV
looks pretty good but... still.. just good, i mean they made first person aiming and shooting through wood into bullet points... aren't those features of most games lately?
the little robot dude is pretty cool tho i like that for the SP.
That footage was sexy. Love the smooth transition between cinematics and gameplay.
