That graffiti on a brick wall pic... very No More Heroes, very Suda51. Could 'Mask' be the Kojima-Suda51 project?

Well, we already know what the last two announcements are...Castlevania: Lords of Shadow and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Nice work, Konami. Excellently kept secret.

Gonna be fun to see if they show some gameplay of one of them, though.

Why "peace-walker" though?

@Federico Iglesias: You're asking the wrong person. I certainly did not kidnap Hideo Kojima after Microsoft's presser, lock him in the back of a van, and force him to explain at gunpoint.

I dunno, maybe because Big Boss is trying to walk The Boss' path toward world peace?

@Arelan: Sorry, but it's pretty cut and dry; ZoE3 might be coming someday, but not for a while. =/

Kojima working on a Castlevania is a pretty awesome thought though.

@Archaotic: Sweet write up man, I guess you are "press," (I kid I kid I've been there before, prolly should register). Not only did I breathe a sigh of relief, I just got super excited for Peace-Walker.

Microsoft debuted the first details on Metal Gear Solid Rising at their E3 press conference this morning, but there's a reason Microsoft wasn't bragging about this Raiden-starring adventure being an Xbox 360 exclusive -- it isn't.

"You know, we didn't say that it was exclusive," clarified Xbox executive and corporate VP John Schappert (he was the guy hosting most of the event) during an interview with me immediately following the press conference.

"We said that the next Metal Gear will be coming [to Xbox 360]," he said.

"I couldn't be more excited about him [Kojima] working on that [Metal Gear Solid Rising] and having that be part of our show," said Schappert. "When I heard about that, I was pretty ecstatic and it was an honor to be able to be on stage with him and announcing his next Metal Gear, which will be on Xbox 360."

Of course, Schappert wasn't in a position to announce where else Metal Gear Solid Rising would be appearing, but could series creator Hideo Kojima be pleasing everyone by announcing this latest work at one conference, showing it at another? We'll have to wait and find out tomorrow morning at Sony's E3 conference.

And thus, the waiting game continues.

...Ouch.

For how many countdowns we went through,

Kojima owes us all a pizza party, I think.

@THEJOHNNYOHM: I was thinking the same thing...

No, the part about Kojima owing us.

Hmm.. I have an idea..

..shall we egg Kojima's house?

"You like rain? I'll give you rain!"

...

..nah, let's just request a pizza party instead. I like Kojima too much to do such a thing. :P

Rising's gonna start out playing as Raiden on a tanker. Then it turns out you'll be playing as Big Boss for the rest of the game.

@Kobun & @svenhoek: Is Eagerly Anticipating Red Faction: Guerilla, I dunno. Raiden gained a much wider fanbase when he underwent his cyborg transformation. I was a fan of Raiden anyway, to be fair.

@1up: Yeah, it's a bit of a tired joke, though I'd say most people in the West were definitely disappointed by MGS2. All that hype, people pushing away the Dreamcast and waiting for and drooling over the new MGS for years only to have it come and fart in everyone's face.
