"Will we ever play as Young Snake again? Ever?"
I fucking miss the times of MGS1 and MGS2. I understand why he's old and the impact that had on the franchise and my emotional attachment to it.
But...damn. I want Snake back.
Technically speaking, Snake is dead since Christmas '08 (six months after MGS4 release/end). This...saddens me.
I'm so pathetic I actually saluted my Snake poster when he "died". ;_;

*Tears up*
I played as much of that game as I could using the young Snake face instead of actually making use of the face camouflage.

What's your point exactly?
That MGS4 hasn't "happened" yet because it's in the "future" to the REAL time? Oh boy.
At any rate, I'd be happy to see what you say come to fruition and get another MGS game that takes place somewhen between MGS2 and MGS4.
@zPhreak: MGS3 is the best MGS game for no other reason than its plot. And Big Boss, the legend. Everything else in it was either a step too far or a step too short.
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to play more scenarios that involve Naked Snake, too. Whichever happens, just, don't make it a game that involves one of the Snakes being near death due to old or accelerated age. That just really depresses me to see Solid Snake like that :(

I cried manly tears during the radiation sequence towards the end of MGS4. Seeing the old, broken-down shell of a once great warrior fighting on just to finish his last mission.. ;_; Same goes for the end with the "Snake.. Had a hard life" quote ;_;

But I wish I could've been more emotionally invested in the radation part the first time. The worst thing ever happened to me during that sequence. A good friend of mine had came over and he was outside hanging out with my fiance barbecuing, but he came inside around the time the god damned microwave sequence started and just would not shut up.
"Why are you crawling?"
"What's going on?"
"This game sure has a lot of cut scenes!"
"Your character is old."
"Why are you moving so slow?"
"This story sure is confusing!"
"Is this on PC?"
"How come you're not playing your Wii?"
"Is this all you do in this game?"
I had to yell at him to leave when the fight. Literally, I said, "Get the fuck out of here, you are totally RUINING THIS!" And he took off. He nearly killed the ending for me. It was the most annoying thing I've ever had happen to me while playing a video game. Especially since I knew, ten years in, I was nearing the end of the MGS story.
:p

I think Konami just wanted to get something out with high value to test the waters to be able to green light other projects. If that's the case and not the trend from here on out i'll live. But if Konami brings future projects out in chunks i agree is a ridiculous business practice.
Also from what i understand the call thing isn't Konami's fault it's the Iphones. It doesn't let you have multiple things open and the phone overrides programs. Sure it definitely worth noting but i can't really say that's a fault of the game.

Hell, even Field Runners launched with Sound/Music and then added it a few weeks later.
It's a pretty alarming trend. I can see adding bugs or new features, but not standard features like music or missing levels in a story.

I'm placing my bet on the idea that for MGS Touch they are going to release a paid update for when the 3.0 OS comes out supporting that feature.

It happened to me once. Left my forum account logged in at work, and one of my co-workers proceeded to insult everyone on the forum, accusing them all of being virgins and living in their parent's basement... As if most of them HAD basements...

This is one of the first games on the iphone that I full-on enjoyed.
The controls make more sense than anything I've played on the platform to date and they're fluid as all hell.
Yes, it may aswell be called Old Snakes Ol' Shootin' Gallery, but hey a fun game is a fun game.
I came into it expecting nothing and came out fairly impressed.
