<![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer - Kotaku Comments]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer - Kotaku Comments]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> How can some people say that MGS 4 is overrated although they have not yet played it? They have probably never played a MGS part at all.

And how dare you to think that there's only one level? You have just seen a little part of the MGS world. Do you really think they used a 50 GB for ten minutes in one level?

Xbox fanboys move in mysterious ways.
MGS is the most anticipated game in the world. I don't exaggerate.

All games launched after MGS were just low-budget copies.

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @CoinSlot: There are too many things wrong with your comment to reply to, but I cant stop myself from asking this one question... What are these obvious flaws so apparent to you?

@unmarkedone: Yup. Because trailers which show the first of 5 levels explain half the game. And we know what is going to happen with at least half the characters. Come on dude... There have been 9 trailers, lets how much was really revealed after we've played the game. I'd be willing to bet a LARGE part of these trailers was intended as misdirection.

@Mike918: I'd sayat least Gran Turismo has as much, or perhaps even better, of a chance to drive PS3 sales.

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @CanaryWundaboy:
Overrated, just because it doesn't appeal to you?
Metal Gear, opposed to other games, doesn't rely on super-heavy advertising campaigns which create all the good press, and enormous hype around it. It relies only on the proved quality of the past games in the series. Just because you don't find it interesting, doesn't make it overrated.

Jomi294

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> Its strange, Metal Gear is my absolute favorite game franchise, and I can't wait for this one, but I get such a different vibe from this one sometimes.
Theres always images in the trailers that remind me directly of the other games, but this one more and more delves into stuff the others didn't touch at all.
Oh, but this isn't a bad thing, not at all. Its interesting to see you on a full-fledged battle ground, and the game apparently may use suicide more than once, which is kind of interesting.
Just talkin' out of my ass, but theres something about MGS4 that is definately different from the others, even from any other game.

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @CanaryWundaboy: I'll never cease to be amazed by how people forget to precede their anecdotes and opinions as such, I'm not exactly a huge fan of MGS either, but from that to being overrated there's an ocean.

I can name a good 4 popular franchises that have great sales yet I think are overrated (Key operative word, "I think")

zoesch

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @sascha23: Yeah, like in the MGS3 trailer where Snake (Big Boss) runs into some guy repairing a motorbike. He says something like, 'This is no Vice City... it's a Jungle' and promptly drives off spinning dusty soil into snakes face. :)

Ignorance's Enemy

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> I feel like the last ten seconds of this Trailer. I am looking forward to the day when the game is a thing of the past so video game websites and magazines can stop inundating us with MG4 news. This game will be good not great; the game has obvious flaws. The hardcore MG club will say otherwise because they are bias. I'd like for the game to be good so when I pick it up I can enjoy it but if it keeps up this steady stream of HALO3-hype and doesn't deliver I am, like others, will be greatly disappointed. Hey Konami, we know what MG is, we know the characters, release a playable demo already.

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> Kojima has a strong tendency to fake-out his audience with trailers, so prepare to have a LOT of things happen that you didn't expect. Also, plan on many things you see here not to take place in the game.

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> Just thought I'd point out... Meryl's changed once again. If you watch the first trailer that Meryl's in, you'll notice a more japanese (and sexier) face. Now she looks more like a pig... This new trailer though, they cut her hair a bit, it's less long in the back. It's nicer, and it's not true to Shinkawa's drawings of her. His drawings of her hair had a lot of volume (like 90's hair volume). It's probably a good thing and not really surprizing that the hair couldn't find its way into the game intact.

Also, QUIT BITCHING ABOUT THE BROWN, PEOPLE. That dumbass VGCats joke is older and more overused than your grandmothers. MGS3 was "brown" too, and that is still one of mine and many other peoples' favorite games. Besides, it's in the fucking desert, do you expect fucking candy canes and gumdrops to be sprouting out of the fucking sand? (As a note to those who pointed out the "brownness" of the field, there's something called a sunset).

It's was a lame joke to begin with, and you guys are only making it even more lame by complaining about something that has already been remedied (thanks to games like Ratchet, Uncharted, even Halo 3 for fuck's sake). You dumbasses are making me sick with how little you can think for yourselves.

Cathaoir

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @DragonSphere:
Maybe spoiler alert.

Its pretty obivous that Snake wants to commit suicde in front of that grave (no doubt Big Boss's) bit I reckon that based on other footage Campbell arrives in his helicopter to tell Sanke of his new mission, interrupting Snake, we have see the copter arrive in the graveyard and Snake inside the copter talking to Campbell. Snake decides to take the mission and get rid of Liquid forever.

Then at the end of the game after he has gotten rid of Liquid he takes his own life, getting rid of the Snake gene line. After all in the first part of this new trailer there is a image of Snake on the ground, blood around hsi head and a gun in his hand, like the old E3 trailer where he put the gun in his mouth.

This being the last Kojima MGS game, again, its main themes is that of ending the gene lines he has talked about so much in the previous Solid games so it makes sense that both Liquid and Solid will die in this game.

Or its all red herrings, Kojima is unpredictable to say the least.

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @CanaryWundaboy: it's a trailer. would you rather a trailer of snake pressed against a wall while an enemy walks past, then run off and hide under a table? you can probably play the game either way, like other MGS games, this is just a trailer to get people interested, hence the explosions, firefights and metal gears.

lordofsword

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> look to be honest, 10% of that video was new footage, most of the other 90% of the other scenes were all from other trailers ive already seen. but the end totally made up for it. So bravo!

Nate00

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> GRAPHICS UPDATE! WHOO! Is it just me or did Big Mama get hotter?

Personally, I like the brown a lot more than the washed out pea-soup color from last time. But it doesn't matter, the HUD will change in every location. AND we will get to adjust the HUD ourselves, so quit bitching.

Another thing: I doubt Snake commits suicide. Kojima, the master of twists and surprises, shows the ending to his final game in one of the first trailers for it?

I think not.

But he will definitely die, no doubt about that.

YUYU

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @CanaryWundaboy: Sorry us MGS fans like the story.

Seriously, the only reason I play MGS is to find what happens next. Hell the story in MG:Acid was pretty dang good.

Anyways you can skip all those long boring cutscenes. Used to piss me off because my cousin always did that in MGS3. I'm sitting on the couch going "wait wtf, now I wont know wtf just happened to this duder!!!"

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @enigma89:

So...MGS3 was like this as well? I only ask becuase I bought MGS1 when I was told it was amazing, only to take it back that very afternoon becuase it bored the pants off me with long...booooring cutscenes. The second game, same thing, was hoping it would be awesome and guess what, looong booooring cutscenes.

The MGS series is overrated as hell.

jynxycat

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> I am on the hype train. Scratch that, I am running the hype train by now!

The game looks all brown because guess what... the middle east looks all brown. There are 4 other locations... somehow I doubt they will all look the same. And no, Kojima wont spoil it by announcing them just so some people can rest easy that the game has a varied color palette. But look at the Rex vs Ray (REX VS RAY OMFG!!) fight, and try to find brown in it.

This is my theory about the suicide angle... Snake is almost committing suicide in the graveyard when helicopter comes, and otacon whisks him away. The scene in the shack... who knows. Might very well be the last scene in the game.

@Tempestora: If you read some of the spoilers out on the net, you'll find something which might gel with your theory ;-). (hint) You'll find... the truth.

@Ignorance's Enemy: Hahaha that would be brilliant!!

iamcool388

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @CanaryWundaboy: What do you mean "What's it trying to be"? It's trying to be Metal Gear Solid 4. I don't know if you remember, but Metal Gear has been around for two decades. It pretty much invented the stealth-action genre.

And why does everyone keep saying "This was going to be my reason for getting a PS3"? You're going to spend $600 plus even more for one game? Just because most of the other good games aren't console exclusive doesn't mean that the PS3 is a shit system for it. Hell, all of the games I currently own are multi-platform, but I never lament and think "Sigh, I could've gotten a 360 for this."

enigma89

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> Wow, why would Kojima willingly release new footage.

They dont want to be like Microsoft and make commercials of everything in their games so by the time you play them, you already know what to expect.

Viet0ne

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> How can you possibly say that this is new footage? Sure, the last 8 seconds or so were new, but the rest was all recycled E3 and TGS footage. You got me excited when you said, "Lots of new footage of Metal Gears and lady-robots with tentacles..." I suggest you actually watch the video before posting an article about whats in it.

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> Isn't this just the German Game show trailer from the bonus disc ?

spot778

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @frostcircus: I'm not saying you can't have fun and a lack of realism in a game, I'm just of the opinion that, ok, 12 foot tall walking gun platforms, totally believable. Cloaking Ninjas, ok. Psychic-powered gas-mask wearers, why not. A serbian from northern Iraq who has Viking blood, Errrr... maybe?

But, I don't know, it just seems like a little too much. Its like MGS4 wants to go hang out with FF7's Jenova or something because MGS4 heard that FF7 was really popular or something. I'm not a huge fan of overkilling a series with 'omgwtf' stuff.

Salen

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @yojimbo32: In an earlier trailer it showed Snake in Metal Gear Rex and Liquid in Metal Gear Ray about to kick the mecha style crap out of each other. This is old man fighting on the NEXT LEVEL.

Wizzard

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> The BBFC analysis of MGS4 says "references to suicide"
Doesn't that essentially mean Snake doesn't blow his brains out? Because if he did it would be more like "strong suicide themes", right?
Also in the trailer here it almost looks like it's not necessarily Snake putting the gun in his mouth, it doesn't show it very well.
But meh, that's just my speculation

MentalNote

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> Do you think there will be a point in the game (towards the end probably) where Snake somehow gets his young self back and liquid gets his body back and they have a good ol' fist fight. I mean two old guys duking it out and falling over would be a bit anticlimactic. (yes i get what kojima is trying to do but still..)

Liquid was wrong about Solidus, what if he was wrong about the other 5?

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @CanaryWundaboy:

The trailer did not show any real time play so I fail to see how you can judge what game it is trying to be from cut scenes.

"Tactical espionage action" is something they have used on the entire mgs series. Which infact, has been around longer than the games you mentioned.

jumptastic

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> Uh, yeah. So we go from a perfectly rational game of terrorists and not-terrorists shooting, then we get some mechs, but since thats not messed up enough, the Japanese add in a chick with tentacles and a monkey? Uhhhhhh... yeah.

Why is this game popular again?

Also, the game looks like it uses the same color scheme as Gears of War, with steel grey and washed out brown on EVERYTHING!

Salen

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> What about that trailer was 'tactical espionage action'? I saw an old man duck out from behind a corner ans shoot for a few seconds, and somehow the 6 guys less than 10 metres away couldnt shoot him despite their high-powered rifles.

What is this game trying to be? It isn't splinter cell, and it isnt COD4...so where does it fall?

That's why Snake's trying to blow out his brains because he doesn't want to become his "father". Big Boss didn't create clones to continue his legacy, he made backups.

@Maxilicious: Yes.

cheeses

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> Wow, these graphics are looking really nice now. Seems like they've regressed somewhat to the MGS2 style, rather than the quasi-photorealism we were seeing in early trailers.

On the realism front though, Otacon's expression at 2:07 is one of the most convincing I've seen in any game. The shadowing on Snake's hand (not to mention their movements) near the end is pretty awesome too, though I told myself I would never be impressed by such things.

For some reason I'm rather surprised to discover that I am still very, very excited for this game.

frostcircus

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> There does seem to be a theme of suicide in this game. IIRC, this is the second time its shown in a trailer.

However, if he is indeed summoning his persona, then what is it? Is Raiden his Persona? is Snake really an androgynous flowery boy at heart?

Bluray player. That will work with all the standards unlike some of the early players that were rushed out.

zacwight

]]> <![CDATA[New Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer]]> @Tempestora: I'm paraphrasing heavily here, but I think Kojima was asked if the footage in the early MGS 4 trailers was accurate as to their locations and actions. The inquiry was made because in the early MGS 2 trailers, there were segments that showed Snake doing things that only Raiden would be doing later on in the game; Kojima put Snake into those MGS2 trailers doing things that he doesn't do in the actual game (e.g. fight against an Harrier jump-jet) in order to keep Raiden's reveal a secret.

Something similar was mentioned regarding the locales and some of the actions in MGS 4. Kojima didn't say that there were hidden characters per se, but he said that some of the actions that occurred in those early trailers were meant to be revealed in a different locale in the actual game. Hence, the gun-in-the-mouth segment in this trailer - which is obviously in a different location than in the famous E3 2006 trailer (my favorite of the trailers, by the way).

Longwinded post.

Plus, whose grave is that? What happened to Raiden's child? And is Eva really Snake's biological mother? Hopefully these'll be answered in 49 days.

I wonder if anyone will publish a playthrough video. I'm curious to see how the story pans out, but not £350 of curious.
Still, looks like Kojima is on top form for this one and in my mind, all the PS3 adopters are about to get their reward.
