I like to imagine that this is what the logical next step for Metal Gear Solid would have been had Tupac been alive to take the helm.

Good lord, trailer is super silly. But Platinum makes amazing action games, so you know it will be awesome.

I'm so glad this is not going to be like other MGS games, as much as I loved them. Platinum is the absolute perfect developer to make this kind of game. CAN'T WAIT.

Why is he wearing heels?

I gotta say, I am more excited for this game than I was for all other MGS games combined. I love how there is even a tinge of stealth shown off.

Have you played MGS4? They're actually gripped feet, he can wield his sword with them. They're meant for clenching and I suppose one could assume it helps with acrobatics and landings.

Yep. Certain fans will say otherwise, but Platinum is doing Metal Gear proud.

Looks fucking awesome, I'm super excited for it, I can't wait.

I also think they are spring loaded so he can jump super high in the air.

Sick trailer, can't wait.

I just hope the 2 studio thing and short dev time doesn't affect it too much.

#11 Posted by Fr0Br0 (3066 posts) - 11 months, 22 days ago

Good lord this game looks DUMB. Not even in the MGS4 dumb kinda way. But in a "cut down a pillar so I can cut this dude in half" dumb.

斬 mother f**king 奪.

#13 Posted by JTB123 (1023 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

That was pretty f***ing sweet, combat looks really fast and fluid. Looking forward to seeing more.

This is why Japan has my heart with action games, always.

#15 Posted by Marz (5469 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

Would you expect anything else?

I've been a long time member of their forums and they basically encourage and promote idiocy and childish views

#20 Posted by Jazzycola (598 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

Man is that trailer dumb in a Expendables kinda way but the only thing the trailer made me want to do is to listen to more Depeche Mode.

#21 Posted by BoOzak (607 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

I thought it was a decent trailer but as someone who loves character action games with depth I wanted to know alittle more about the mechanics. Thankfully Konami's got my back!

Skip to 18:30 (I really dont know why they started the video off with flash games...)

Now I know this doesnt really explain all that much about how the combat works, but it's the small details that caught my attention. Like the ability to run and deflect bullets and multiple weapons! Which after NG3 is refreshing.(DLC doesnt count..) It also looks as though you can vault over and scale the enviroment Prototype style, which is an awesome concept in or out of combat. Even in it's current state about a year or so away from release the game looks great, and as you can probably tell i'm more than alittle hyped. And this is coming from a huge MGS fan who's played through every game in the saga multiple times!

..Oh and i'm also a cynical bastard if that counts for anything ;p

WRONG

#23 Posted by BoOzak (607 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

@Yummylee: whuh..?

#24 Edited by Yummylee (18154 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

@BoOzak: I was quoting the hilarious ''WRONG'' @3.24 nearing the end of the GT trailer.

#25 Posted by BoOzak (607 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

@Yummylee: Oh.. *sheaths rageblade* okay then..

#26 Posted by probablytuna (2515 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

It's not the Metal Gear I know, but if it's a good game I'll get it.

#27 Posted by Napalm (9020 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

Fuck all videogames, ever. Game of the fucking year.

#28 Posted by buzz_killington (3532 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

God damn, Depeche Mode has some good trailer songs.

#29 Edited by PrivateIronTFU (3874 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

I love you, Platinum Games. Is there anything you can't make awesome?

Although, all I can think when I hear that title is "Revengeance is a perfectly cromulent word".

#30 Posted by 0blivion (215 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

I really hope they mention nothing about the fate of Snake.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

#32 Posted by NTM (6427 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

All I'll say is, if this game is good, the trailer certainly doesn't do it justice.

#33 Posted by big_jon (5101 posts) - 11 months, 21 days ago

Mega 64?

#34 Posted by BasketSnake (870 posts) - 11 months, 19 days ago

I'm betting you just unlock Snake later. Can't say I'm interested though.

#36 Posted by AngelN7 (2842 posts) - 11 months, 19 days ago

I love it I love it I love it , maybe because I'm not the biggest metal gear fan the only game in the series I've completed was Peace Walker so I don't mind the focus on action but this just seem like a great crazy action game and the bosses might get even more crazy than regular MGS bosses that right there makes this game insane! cannot wait.

Depeche Mode eh?
