Quite the bandwidth on that HD rip. It's filling up most of my 6.0 Mb no problem.

I hope the M4 with EOtech scope is still in the game. All I saw were Scars and XM8's, but those M4's they had in the game before looked badass.

Damn this trailer looks amazing! Some parts, like in the begining, they almost look like a real movie O_O I'm also really looking forward to see Kojima playing it at Tokyo Game Show 
My initial reaction was pretty negative on Meryl as well, but after seeing it in HD on my tv she looks pretty damn good.
They made her older than the version that was in the previous trailer. Her facial features looks like that of a 30ish year old woman now instead of that 20 something young girl in the old trailer.

That's weird timing. You'd think they would have it at their own event today. Well, at least, it's coming soon. I want to see a real gameplay demo, damn it.Yoboman said:
OMG! That guy on the far left HAS to be Raiden.
*Blonde hair.
*Why the glasses and the facehood?
*If you listen closely at the "Commander!" line you can distinguish that it's in fact Raiden's voice.
*Why Kojima gave emphasis to that particular character... I mean, why is he the only one that's not affected by the thingy Liquid Ocelot activated?

I'm thinking Raiden, too. You can see a tuft of blonde hair sticking out of the mask, and his voice is sort of light like Raiden's.Luken said:

After watching the first half a few more times, I'm getting into the whole story concept again.
War as a game, war controlled like an RTS. Every trailer thus far has been slowly building up that dehumanization of soldiers. Last year it was with each person was devolved into a unit with ID stats, et cetera. This year it described the micro but also macro control of those units en masse.

The masked guy has got to be Raiden. The nanomachines/FOXDIE aren't giving him problems because he doesn't have them (he's not a real member of FoxHound), or because he's now totally a cyborg, or both
HAWT. Can't wait for next week's gameplay demonstration.

2 disappointments:
1. WHERES THE GAMEPLAY?????
2. OMFG THEY BETTER NOT TAKE AWAY MY OCELOT....I HATE THESE SCIFI/HOCUS-POCUS GARBAGE WHERE LIQUID SNAKE POSESSES SOME OTHER CHARACTERS MIND AND BODY. GIVE HIM HIS OWN DAMN BODY PLZ
thanx kojima!

All the fine details make the duel what it is.
When Raiden pulls down the small metal gear, his suit pops out 2 shoulder plates and let's off gas (sort of like when he powered down at the end of the last trailer). The second time Vamp throws knives, three of the four hit, spark a little as their pierce the suit, and they stay stuck in there. Vamp cracks his neck sideways to dodge Raiden's thrown sword. The toe stab punctures a gas line for Raiden's suit. Et cetera.
I actually took a few captures of some of the details but after only getting about a third through the fight, it started to feel a little pointless because there are so many.
(Aformentioned neck crack to dodge the sword)

Loved the end of the new trailer. The Vamp and Raiden fight. Vamp moves even more like a homosexual now though. Glad to see Vamp back in the action.
love the trailer, btw -- the nanomachines driving everybody nuts on command, foaming at the mouth, brawling. total battlefield control. 'i'm just an old killer on a wetworks assignment.' that vamp/raiden fight that -- since i happen to be reading blade of the immortal -- reminds of manji's fight with shizuma eiku. can't wait to see gameplay next week. mgs4 isn't the prettiest game anymore -- not with cod4 and killzone 2 cranking up the chaos and verisimilitude -- but it's idiosyncratic and stylish and daring in a way that video games just...aren't. <3
but what's with the motion blur in the psn download? looks kind of nasty -- you can actually see afterimages of moving objects, as if it was on a really bad lcd. and you can see them in freezeframe. i think this might be something with the video encoding -- you can see the same thing in one of the vf5 trailers on the japanese psn store, and there's nothing of the sort in the actual game.

Good god that looked amazing. I agree that the solid brick of Meryl's hair was noticeable, but only because every single damn thing else looked SO FREAKING GOOD. And her hair is obviously something that is going to be changed, Liquid's hair moved.
The story looked interesting, the fight was unreal (like so many classic MGS showdowns it skirted the line of "too much" in terms of action, but shit if you want utter realism in your game with seemingly immortal warriors, clones, and almost mystical levels of fighting ability then you're already unhappy) and the degree of polish was exactly what we've all come to expect of a Kojima game. Can't freaking wait!
Awesome, Killzone trailer just finished d/ling and I still have a few more to go. Sony has sure redeemed the hell out of the lame summer PSN updates.

I think the "clean" look will be sorted out by release.
The way the soldiers started fighting each other through the use of macro-something was cheesy and probably a weird gameplay mechanic. One small thing that got to me was how the enemy soldiers always have their faces covered, like the previous few games.

Frame rate was all over the place for practically the entire trailer, but the Snake climbing over all the bodies and stumbling around - completely badass.
Hated the Raiden scene - there were a few good parts, but way too many over-the-top moments that remind me of some piece of shit DMC would throw in. I know Kojima is trying to get people to like Raiden, but damnit, no reason to go that crazy.
Graphically, I expected much more - that being said, Kojima always spoke of graphics not being the most important aspect of next-gen, so I'm sure the complete package will greatly make up what's lacking graphically (character models look ****ing great, textures not so much).

That was awesome indeed, Meryl looks even more realistic now (except the hair no longer moves, which is probably temporary).
Anyone else thinks that the guy who was not affected by the nanomachines with his head covered is actually the "young snake"?

You are right. I have theorized for some time that the cyborg ninja is in fact NOT Raiden. The theme of the game is "How do we preserve someone's sense digitally.". I see the cyborg Raiden as that principle.
Raiden represented the player and was the kind of person who accepted lies for his own mental well being. So Kojima has given us the "lie" we want, a cool ass-kicking cyborg Raiden, and like Raiden we accept this "lie" for our own selfish reasons. But just like Raiden avoided the truth when he could see glimpses of it, hence sustaining the lie, so do we: Raiden is still girly, he has eye-liner, long finger nails, and high heels. This is Kojima's way of showing us that this Raiden has flaws we refuse to accept, we gloss over them, because we WANT him to be the cool Cyborg Ninja Raiden.
Anyway that is how I have seen it for some time, but we'll see.
