They advertise Raiden, but in a bizarre twist you have to play as Snake for the last two thirds of the game.

I dont know about you guys, but I think Kojima just goes way to far with the artsy ness he tries to get accross with his games.  They are fucking action games!  Make them feel like it, dont try to make it all Private Ryan and First Blood (first one) and Star Wars all rolled into one!  Damn even this trailer is too artsy!

@AndrewB:  Yes Otacon will carry around his laptop bag, but instead of a laptop, the Metal Gear Mk will pop out with his magical wrench.

I hope its a 2-D fighting game with all the MGS characters. Or a Streets of Rage style game over XBLA.

Somebody is going to write a thesis paper from this video on the entire story of the game. The rest of us sit back and look at the pretty pictures. Mmmmmmm... pretty pictures.

... Well, given how confusing the plot will be I doubt it would help much if they revealed anything past concept art and a logo anyway.

That voiceover was really lame, as is the "lighning bolt action" shit in the title of the game. I used to love MG, until I got old enough to realize I had only been tricked into thinking I liked it. Pleaseeeee put an end to the Metal Gear franchise, Kojima!

So Metal Gear is going to descend into DMC type of action games. Sad, real sad. At least this time around Kojima is making it clear that Raiden is the main playable character. I still remember the reaction from the MGS fan base for MGS 2.

So... they turned Raiden into Kakashi?  Amazing what a single headband can do.

Kojima sure loves his 10 minute trailers.

Note how it's lightning bolt action (<insert volgin here>) instead of tactical espionage action.
