Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
badcrumble said:5 or S, either one invalidates that silly Oxide rumor.
why ?
kojima pro. doesn't need to be involved with oxide at all.

Less Rain will be on the 27th.
Sunny on the 30th.
Exclamation Mark/Reveal on the 1st.

Regarding that weather pattern, anyone else think it simply represents the state of mind of Kojima's fans? Right now we're leaving the storm, going into something less severe, and the torrent, if you want to call it that, will diminish as we're granted more clues? The sun meaning, of course, that "everything's become clear." The exclamation point could indicate a surprise. Seems to coincide with the five countdown theory, each one probably leading up to a clue.

Well yeah, whatever. Nothing really substantial, but I was just tossing it out there. This thread is crazy enough it didn't seem like my post would be too out of place :lolakachan ningen said:just because people ignore posts like that doesn't mean they don't notice them.
Probably didn't word that well enough. What I meant to say is the weather pattern might be the intended level of hype or discussion, maybe mystery surrounding this announcement. At first there's nothing, just the cloud, then when it's revealed that something is happening there's the storm, which will eventually clear up as more info is revealed.Slurmer said:intended to represent the minds of Kojima fans? no..

Shurs said:Here's another odd thing about the timer.
It starts on the 18th.
It starts again on the 22nd. 4 days.
It starts again on the 27th. 5 days.
It starts again on the 30th. 3 days.
It starts again on the 1st. 2 days.
Odd how that works.
autobzooty said:I ranted about this to my sister and she said that no matter who the star of the game is, it's going to be called Metal Gear Solid.
Ello said:Reminds me alot of MGS3 and we didn't play any Solid Snake in that game. This is probably MGS5 with Big Boss again.
autobzooty said:There's no way that's an S. It's a 5.
Xenon said:Microsoft has commissioned Konami to make...
Halo: Infiltrator A stealth based game in the Halo universe
Charles said:You didn't play MGS4, did you?
Charles said:Well. But then I realized that you might be talking about a 'sequel' to MGS3 and portable Ops, which could be interesting, but probably isn't going to happen. I think Kojima is going to move away from the Big Boss/Patriots story.the ending of 4 removes any possibility of playing as Big Boss
Orlics said:That'd be really cool considering that all the incarnations of the Spartans were trained at stealth too but it's a pipe dream.
Wait it makes sense for them to alienate the PS3 fanbase which MGS4 sold a crap ton on. At this point the only thing that makes sense is multiplatform PS360 or Wii.Xenon said:Yeah, I dont think it would happen. However, I do think that Konami may want to test out a new franchise on the much easier to develop for 360 platform, kinda like Capcom did with dead rising and Lost Planet. If it worked out then they could always port to the PS3. Or they could set the bar a little lower and go multi-plat right off the bat.
It doesn't make sense to announce a new exclusive game for the PS3 right now.
omg rite said:Okay so, in response to those posts, my friend said this to me in an IM and told me to pass it along to GAF.
(2:43:53 AM) me: look at this DETECTIVE WORK.
(2:43:58 AM) me: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=15892526&postcount=1183
(2:44:27 AM) her: i like that
(2:44:31 AM) her: i love reading actionscript
(2:44:47 AM) her: someone should track down the FLA file
(2:44:51 AM) her: or dissect the swf
(2:45:00 AM) her: because it's pointing to a frame name
(2:45:04 AM) her: which would be in the file
(2:45:43 AM) her: gotoAndStop ("6/1"); means there's a frame labelled 6/1
(2:45:56 AM) her: which is in the existing file
(2:46:32 AM) me: someone also posted this
(2:46:34 AM) me: Here's another odd thing about the timer.
It starts on the 18th.
It starts again on the 22nd. 4 days.
It starts again on the 27th. 5 days.
It starts again on the 30th. 3 days.
It starts again on the 1st. 2 days.
Odd how that works.
(2:47:20 AM) her: 5 different frames
(2:47:32 AM) me: so would that be a frame for each number?
(2:47:37 AM) her: well
(2:47:44 AM) her: it's saying gotoAndStop for each frame
(2:47:46 AM) her: which means
(2:47:54 AM) her: go to the frame with the labelled date
(2:48:01 AM) her: in the swf file
(2:48:19 AM) her: seriously, there's probably a way to grab the swf and manipulate the frames
I have absolutely no idea what she just said. But I'm passing it along anyway. :lol

Correction. An announcement for a countdown for a coundown for a countdown for a countdown for an announcement of an announcement at E3.Lakitu said:An announcement of an annoucement of an announcement? :lol :lol

I took it and changed it all to this:

to follow the first two countdowns' format
Then when I changed it to this (0522100000 to 0522000000) the countdown went down by 10 hours. Still getting the 5 though.

DrBo42 said:Checked out the last page you linked (great work) there's a Metal Gear font 5 that flashes at 50% transparency on lightning cues... I think we can safely say this is Metal Gear Raiden.
Lord Phol said:Why does the title still say "..Reveal in 3 days", have I missed something? :s
27 pages later and people still make-up whacky theroies.
Rez said:It's clearly a "5" and the lightning/sun most likely means Raiden/Sunny. Seems, by far, the most likely situation.
SolidSnakex said:Why does that even matter? KojiPro already has an engine running on the PS3.
It's an S >_<DrBo42 said:Checked out the last page you linked (great work) there's a Metal Gear font 5 that flashes at 50% transparency on lightning cues... I think we can safely say this is Metal Gear Raiden.
I actually want to play as The Boss more.Lakitu said:That's already been there since today. Nothing new.
Even so, I'd rather we had a Big Boss game than Raiden.
Lakitu said:It neither looks exactly like an S or a 5. Kojima is fucking with our heads.
