Sounds like Ground Zero is a tech demo and not an actual game according to the AndriaSang post.

So...

hmm...

I'm tired.

yea, watch Kojima pull the rug right under us and we're playing as adult Sunny with Old Sanke as our main contact.

Ooooh, that sounds plausible.

 

[gibration]

Maybe he meant old as in the past old, lol

That's what I am guessing becase the man in that pic is most certainly Big Boss/Naked Snake.

Why would you make a tech demo in 2012 specced to 2005 hardware?

 

[Coolwhip]

so is another mgs supposed to shake the industry?

 

[Hydrogen Bluebird]

.

This is what's causing the confusion.

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

It's obviously Big Boss. Not sure what's confusing really...

 

[Jawmuncher]

So...

hmm...

I'm tired.

Im just done guessing whats going on now.
I'll be back when all the information has been solidified and made consumable for the masses.

 

[Odrion]

Save us Hideo, save us from what Ubisoft considers "stealth".

 

[Evlar]

No way that's Old Solid Snake. Even if they managed to cure his genetic condition, just look at the hardware he's wearing.

Obviously a mistake.

- Current-gen game confirmed, the demo was on a PC based on PS3/360 hardware specs

- Story hints in the script include "soldiers who cannot return home", "Paz" and "Mother Base".

- 4Gamer and Famitsu can't seem to decide if its Ground Zero or Ground Zeroes. Lol.

 

[Vossler]

Why speculate?.....it's what Kpnami/Koijma need(s)?

 

[plainr_]

Big Boss for sure.

Time Paradoxes all up in this bitch.

 

[iLLmAtlc]

By Old Snake he must mean an older looking Snake, if I were to geuss.

 

[Night_Trekker]

So fucking sick of the same characters being used over and over. Like someone said, MGS3 did Big Boss right, and it should have ended there for him.

Maybe they'll just clone him again. Clones can be totally different, personality-wise. I'd be okay with that.

Actually, I wouldn't say no to a high-quality MGS1 remake packaged in with these either. That'd give us the entire series available in HD.

Okay, I'll play along.

But we already got Twin Snakes, bro!

 

[Graphics Horse]

Why would you make a tech demo in 2012 specced to 2005 hardware?

Maybe it's like the Metal Gear 3DS demo to Metal Gear 3DS.

 

[Moz La Punk]

So Ground Zero it is now?

 

[thetrin]

Save us Hideo, save us from what Ubisoft considers "stealth".

Stealth is shooting 10 guys, and then running through the middle of a village in broad daylight, right?

most likely just Ground Zero for US release at least. unless they wanna stick with Zeroes for fun.

 

[giancarlo123x]

Finally changed my avatar for the first time since I joined. I need this game so bad, I somehow hope for winter 2013.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

Old Snake. How's that?

this probably takes place after Peace Walker so it's probably Big Boss with a few more years and a lot more gray hair.the result would be that he looks a lot like Old Solid Snake.

[Mr. RHC]

From the andriasang article:

According to Famitsu.com's report, Metal Gear Solid Ground Zero is the name of the real time demo Kojima Productions showed at the event. But it is also being made into an actual open world game.

 

[Kagari]

Sounds like a Peace Walker sequel to me.

 

[Noisepurge]

- 4Gamer and Famitsu can't seem to decide if its Ground Zero or Ground Zeroes. Lol.

So Konami did not even show a logo?

 

[duckroll]

This is almost without a doubt the sequel to Peace Walker, story-wise.

[Stark]

There you go, lol. Would be no point to saying "looking at next-gen" in the earlier news if it wasn't this.

 

[Pranay]

Dont its for current gen despite famitsu saying otherwise

 

[Spiffy_1st]

Kojima is so intentionally not giving away who it is.

 

[Graphics Horse]

There he is, unflipped Snake!

 

[RussellXV]

http://kotaku.com/5939164/konami-reveals-metal-gear-solid-ground-zeroes-it-looks-fxxking-hot

Seems those goggles are going to play a major part in is game.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Maybe it's like the Metal Gear 3DS demo to Metal Gear 3DS.

Ducky seems to have confirmed it's a game so it don't matter now. But that's not really applicable. One is new hardware the other came out in 2005.

 

[giancarlo123x]

That new picture above doesn't look like Big Boss that much to me for some reason.
Edit: Nvm I see the eyepatch strap.

SNAKE? SNAKE!?! SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!?!?!

I thought Big Boss didn't call himself snake anymore? I haven't placed PW yet btw.

Damn, he's still "Snake"? What happened to "Call me Big Boss!"

 

[FlutterPuffs]

Kojima is so intentionally not giving away who it is.

He could pull another MGS2.

Raiden confirmed!

they gotta include the Solid Eye functionality in the new game somehow and try to keep it realistic!

I like how its not Big Boss, Solid Snake or Old Snake... just Snake

 

[Bruce Lee Kicks]

Speechless.

 

[thetrin]

I would laugh my ass off if it was some new character named Snake.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Yeah, that computer was based on PS360 specs and I'm the Queen of England.

A crown does look slimming on you.
