Is Kojima gonna show the Fox Engine at Comi-Con? [Up: Something shown behind doors]

Sounds like a behind closed doors sort of thing.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
It's obviously going to be a Metal Gear MMO.

LFG METAL GEAR OMEGA

WTS [RESPLENDENT BANDANNA OF THE FOX] 20G
 
For some reason I keep imagining this game to have some sort of co-op mode similar to Peace Walker. I'd love for them to expand on that. Imagine being able to ride a horse whilst taking down a tank with explosive arrows.

Yea this is something I can get behind since I never played those games and they are probably outdated at this point.

The first one is rather outdated, but Metal Gear 2 is still phenomenal. In fact, playing it made me dislike Metal Gear Solid a lot, because that game simply takes ideas from MG2 and puts a 3D perspective on them, seeming a little lazy to me.

Yeah, MGS was basically a remake of MG2. Thats why I think MG1 and 2 might need to be combined into one game(?) or else they'll have to change a lot on MG2 to distance it from MGS.


before i knew what MG2 looked like, when I heard snake in mgs1, talking about his fistfight against fox, in the middle of a minefield.
i imagined a super epic cqc battle in the middle of a open minefield, with explosions and shit going on in the background.

by dreams were crushed when I decided to youtube the ending of MG2.
 
I can't be the only one who thinks the art assets in the Fox Engine demo don't look very good.

I wouldn't worry too much about that, they probably wanted to test or show us something. Kojima productions has some of the best artists in the industry.

I didn't mean it this way, I meant that the textures aren't very good and the character and vehicle meshes look comparable in quality to those of MGS4.

I kind of agree. I got really excited when I saw that pick of the dude in the bandana creeping next to the tank, because it looks like MGS. But look at the tires on that vehicle, they look pretty bad. So does the guys hair/head/bandana (I'm sure there's stuff others could point out. Those are just the things that bother me, and I'm not really usually someone who harps on graphics. This would be disappointing though.)

EDIT:

Thats from mgs4...


Is it really? If it is, I guess you can ignore me. I do think the actual Fox Engine screen in the jungle looks pretty good, I was only referring to the tank pic.

EDIT2:

Yeah... I didn't think it was. Haha
 
The site is up. There's info on the MGS orchestra CD coming out this August, and also stuff about the MGS4 patch (full install??!!!):

Can't check in detail, I'm at work

Yep, full install

Trophies aren't the only surprise feature Konami is readying for Metal Gear Solid 4. The game's new PS3 the Best budget version will also feature support for full data install. This means that rather than having the game install data at the start of each chapter, which is how the game currently works, you can opt to have the game do a full install at the start of play, and have no more installations for the rest of the game.

That's not surprising, it's 'open world', or more likely seamlessly hub based, and it's coming to Vita. It's not like it's going go have a huge visual upgrade from 4.

Full install is huge :D Would that come in the trophy patch as well, you think?

Edit: I guess it's not known yet :(

MGS 5.

Believe.

Project Ogre, Kojima's new IP, should be first in the pipeline.
Unless Kojima trolled us, Ogre started like an original game just in his mind, but for everyone else it was just an other Metal Gear game :p
But I hope that's not the case.
