SDCC: Metal Gear Solid 5 announced or not (Open Ground Reconnaissance Endeavour OGRE)

probably play Metal Gear 1 as a flashback for half the game then a TWIST. The future is in the second half with Sunny.
I wouldn't say "clearly," but the chairs do totally give it away. It's a bit misleading anyway because of how small the pictures are. I'm sure a lot of other current-gen engines can be made to fool people when you provide pictures that small.

Konami needs money, so the HD (PS3/360) install base currently is very vital to them. I agree with the open-world part since it has been hinted before as well.

This! If this new MGS is about Outer Heaven, wouldn't it be cool if the game ended with the end of Metal Gear 1 where you as a player gets killed instead of a normal pattern where you kill the endboss?

god, another mgs. i really LOVE mgs, but i think that the series needed a break after 4. shame that konami is in such a bad spot that the only thing kojima can do is keep on trucking with pretty much the only selling franchise they got.
Why bet in something of so improbable? konami want to make money with so much years of development, a new platform (not announced yet) not give a chance to cover the cost.

It's been four years since the last numbered entry, don't you think that counts as a break?

why is she wearing ice skates?
I feel old and cranky for saying this, but I want a corridor based MG game again - something with structure and limitations to work around. Not open world stuff.
Frankly I'd be happy for a Vita/3DS version of VR missions
Snake, if you want to contact me again, turn your sundial to XII.I - remember, if its cloudy you won't be able to contact me.
It's the shadow, lol

well, i would consider it as a break if they hadn't been releasing mgs remakes and ports between now and then. sure, it's been 4 years, but i actually wanted kojima to work on some new IP for once.

Yeah I don't believe for second this is a next gen game. It's been in development far past when he would have had a dev kit and Konami probably wants the benefits of the PS3/360 install base to make a bunch of money next year.

PS4 launch title and I'll buy one!
Its exactly what Sony needs to push the ps4.

I have nothing against a new MGS if it will be a great game. Keep in mind MGS 4 was good only the first 2 acts, so... anyway the problem is not to be a sequel or an older brand but not offer something of really new. Gameplay design isn't limited to the brand imho

Fair enough. I've played Peace Walker and I own the HD collection on both PS3 and Vita but I still feel like the time is right for an epic, new, console MGS game.

Anyone remember the first MGS4 trailer? It was with MGS3 character models, and more of a tongue in cheek kind of thing to announce the game.
If this is real there could be a big reveal trailer next E3 or even TGS with the new consoles...

It made sense that MGS4 would be on new consoles. By the time it was done we would be well into next gen. This game is the equivalent of if Metal Gear Solid 3 had been moved to PS3 for some reason.

Judging by screens posted a while ago, it seems that Project OGRE is going to be more of a war game than what we're used to...
And if this announcement is real and that "Open Ground" tagline is true, I'm kinda worried.
Maybe a long stretch but since Kojima was investigating FPS's and visiting the likes of Infinity Ward, could this be a big scale FPS?

you know what Reconnaissance means right?
That seems very unlikely.

01 - MGS2
05 - MGS3
08 - MGS4
10 - MGS
WThat team is very regular. To wait for a PS480 install base that can break even on a forty million dollar investment with the popularity of MGS, MGS5 couldn't realistically ship till 2015 at the earliest. They can spend less and make more if they ship next fall on the current systems, and their pipeline should accommodate that.

The same. But seeing as Cliffy was impressed I guess it goes beyond a mere concept/announcement video. All speculation of course but I guess that's what Konami wants haha.

doesn't that vehicle look similar to MGS4, eg the tyres don't have any shape to the treads, just a flat texture. An impressive current gen engine but I wonder how it'll look on next gen/high end PC.
I thought those were one in the same.
Yea meaning the start of the franchise, it will be a remake of the first metal gear.

Well to be fair MGS4 was included in the PS3 game reel when it got announced. I thought it was the same year as the KZ2 trailer. So even though it will be formally announced, it could be a while before it sees the light of day.
By the way I think the new MGS4 update near the end cycle of of the current generation is a brilliant marketing move. It insures new players will pick up the game now that the market has expanded, that and the relatively low price point makes me hope the game gets new wind. Shame for online though but oh well.
Can't see that.
When I reached this place I went completely nuts.
ruined by those annoying Geckos
Konami is going to make money off of any metal gear if its exclusive on either ps3 or 360. I really don't think they would lose money off of mgs franchise.
Remember how big the launch was for mgs4? I remember working the next day at gamestop and people were lined up for the ps3 bundle.

threee-deeee
I feel the same way personally
To be fair the whole thing with Paz in Peace Walker ties in really well to the rumored Child Solider plot-line of MGS5. Really think this has zero chance of being a re-make of MG1&2. It's going tie in heavily to those games though for better or worse.

Why all the secrecy, Kojima?
