@etho:
Um... the giant robots are really the least ridiculous part of the game, considering the cyborg ninjas, vampires, psychics, and fourth wall breaking. And Rex was present for most of the first game's plot, unless you skipped all the cutscenes.

Sigh. MGS is a series of reasonably interesting futuristic stealth games that are consistently ruined by the presence of ridiculous giant robots. They really ought to make one game with a wizard for a boss, cause honestly, it seems no less out of place. I played the original Metal Gear Solid having no idea how it ended, and then, all of a sudden, there's a giant robot. Completely ruined it for me.

One would think after hundreds of stories, pictures and over thirty minutes worth of video content out there, I would be tired of MGS4. But, in fact, I'm getting the opposite effect each time I see final-state screens.

Hurry up and be June already!!!

Is it just me or does Image #1 recall Shadow Moses? Looks very interesting.

I refuse to buy a PS3 for just one (albeit, very awesome) game, so I'm going over to a friend's and "renting" his PS3 for the week. Meow.

As of lately, the Metal Gear Hype has been simmering down for me. Maybe cause the bevy of awe inspiring trailers has disbanded, maybe it's because I'm too f**k'n poor to buy a HDTV and a PS3 and start a life :S I guess I'm afraid that eventually, there will be a game with SO MUCH HYPE, that in the end, it fails to deliver everything we imagined. Of course with me, saying that has probably been filed into the "Since you said it, now it must be the opposite of what you believe" (that happens a lot to me). I just hope Metal Gear Solid 4 can wow me in the same way Metal Gear Solid 3 (my first Metal Gear) did.

These screens have put the simmering of hype on a slow down, now I just need a world with Sony embracing their greatest generation of game console in their latest generation of media console. and if I can find my own place before buying a PS3 ;)

What happened to their "media blackout"? Is that not in effect any more? Anways, glad to see a screenshot of the the new codec system. No more static face boxes. The person you'll be talking to will appear on the codec and you'll be able to control the mk.II during these scenes? That's right!

@uzivatel: you guys are getting a little too hung up on screenshots which, as we gamers know, usually don't do justice to the final product, especially when a MGS game is concerned. Just look at the game in motion and you'll be blown away. I'm sure when you play the game (if you do) you'll be spending your time criticizing the graphics rather than actually 'playing' the game, not.

Also, the green filter is indicative of the level you're playing, in this case South America. In the Middle East level the filter is brown.

Looks great. Every game nowadays seems to be running on the Unreal 3 engine and it's really starting to look repetitive. Kudos to games like MGS4 and Too Human for giving their games a sharper, less 'glowy' look.

@Vicious-chan: I love the MGS series *thumbs up* The only thing I am worried about is getting off my butt to eject the game from the PS3 or pressing the PS button midgame to access a tweaked interface or whatever hoops Kojima-san makes me jump through to break the forth wall.
They take me many tries to figure out, usually.

Vicious-chan — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 23:46:07 MDT

@hopelesshindu:

It IS an artistic choice, don't worry. In the previous MGS games, the color filter would change depending on the mood of the scene, so I assume the same will hold true for MGS4. It's not all gonna be green and brown if that's what you're worried about.

Question for the HD gaming era:
Which do you prefer- Brown or Green or Gray filters as here or SuperShinyEverythings a la every FPS?

I prefer the filters as long as it is clear that it was an ARTISTIC choice, not an excuse to get lazy with accurately coloring everything.
