Metal Gear Solid V or The Phantom Pain or Whatever They'll Eventually Call It: Debut Trailer

Next-gen Metal Gear, surely.

The only metal gear connection I see is the mullet. The fact that that whale and unicorn weren't robots is making me suspicious.

If this is really a Kojima trick, he is one of the most brilliant developers ever

Your asking way too many questions.

Looks amazing and looks current-gen, so maybe we don't have to wait half a decade for it. Maybe.

It's looking pretty good, regardless of what it ends up being.

So... I haven't played a Metal Gear game since MGS2. Can anyone explain why people are convinced this is another Metal Gear game?

Dude looks a helluva lot like Big Boss, lots of characters appearing that resemble characters from other MGS games, engine looks exactly like the Fox engine, which we saw in the MGS Ground Zeroes trailer and the little lines on the title match up just right with "Metal Gear Solid V"

@VargasPrime: Man, it's tough to explain in a single post so I'll just link you here, it should explain everything: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=503254

this isn't a trailer for the next metal gear.

so that was a thing.

I have not played many of the MG games but when this trailer was shown in the VGA's the hair alone made me guess it was Snake. Then the title a the end did not reference MG and I was like "wierd, oh well". Glad to see my inner gamer tingle feeling was correct.

Liquid and Ocelot had their right arm removed/lost/graphed though right? So the left arm and eye bandage thing are fan mind-F%€#$ surely?

Fuck, those are some cool sounds!

mullets

You know how hospital patient one-piece uniforms are open in the back?
 
Watch closely.

Japan? Japan!

?

ALSO JACK BAUER!

Vagrant Story crossover.

He looks like Snake and I'm only really basing that off the mullet.

So glad this is happening!

Metal Gear?!

OCELOT!

I wondered what this was during the VGA's.

Metal Gear!

Liquid?
