I knew it was MGS because the trailer was long and obnoxious.

I'd really like closure on snake instead of more big boss stuff, or just no more MGS at all
.
 
Hm...

What if this is just Silent Hill and Kojima is doing a double troll here?!

I don't know what I want more: A Kojima-developed SH or MGSV

ah ok gotchya, yea the whole reversal idea sounds like a total bust.

Why would kojima do that when he probably knows skyward sword already did it anyways?

I'd be in the dick
I saw some higher quality screenshots than the feed I watched and take back what I said originally about it visually. Looks spot on the same as Ground Zeroes, just without the searchlights illuminating everything. I'm really curious what's up if these are two different games looking so similar.

anyone else spot mantis at the end of the trailer? at around 2:39 you can see his feet on the ground, then they begin to float up.. then the camera pans up and you see mantis in the air behind the gunman.. neeeeeeat

feet on ground near the top (right-ish) of the screen,

then floating behind the duder,

Just spitballing here, but maybe this seems supernatural because part of the game takes place while big boss is hooked up to the patriots network? Maybe that's causing this crazy nightmare. The text in the phantom trailer implies that BB thinks he's dead or in a dream.

more money than God
I just found out about this.

So, this is Phantom Pain (MGS5)? It's not made by Kojima Prod? And it's coming to 360/PS3?

And this is in addition to MGS: Ground Zeroes? Or is this Groud Zeroes? And if this isn't Ground Zeroes, is Ground Zeroes still coming to 360/PS3?
 
My head fucking hurts-

So for those of us living in a time zone where this shit happened between 3AM and 6AM, here's what we know:

- this is not ground zeros, but a completely seperate game
- snake and volkin most definately sighted
- may be a game working alongside ground zeros in terms of narrative
- DLC prequel to ground zeros?...


I always said people here and elsewhere sometimes overstate kojima's intention to create confusing trailers. BUT this- this 100% meant to confuse and lead to arguments.

Insane For Sony
I thought that Vita cheering crew here was downright insane, but now I see that the officialy released screens are in 960x540 resolution. Either Kojima is a master troll or maybe they were not as insane as I thought.

I don't know WTF is going on with this trailer anymore.

One moment, I think it could be Snake, the next, Liquid. Now perhaps it's Big Boss.
I can't look at this trailer anymore.

Maybe it's Ground Zeros after all, and were just being trolled? That most certainly is Volgin.

(Walks out to livingroom where trailer is playing on TV) Fuuuuuuuuuu

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?

Wait... is this true?

I don't believe it's a Vita release... but if the screenshots are in that res... yeah, that's some pretty decent evidence...

I'm still grinning over how clever this announcement was. Didin't garner as much attention as a blunt MGSV announcement would have, but I like this better.

The numerology supports MGSV being on Vita too!


In Japan time, the VGAs were held on 2012/12/8

The letters VITA can be expressed by the numerals 22-9-20-1

Rearranged, 2012/12/8 gives: 22 81 20 1. Add 8 and 1 together, you get 9. So, in other terms, 22-9-20-1.

This was all planned from the beginning.
 
You guys are crazy lol, there's no way in hell this is a Vita game. I'm willing to be the centerpiece of a Wall of Shame if it is indeed for Vita.

MGSV instead of MGS5, lots of reasons to believe this is a Ground Zeroes Spinoff, we know that GZ is NOT MGS5, and the screenshots are in Vita resolution.

I'm kinda starting to think this actually IS a Vita game, and not actually MGS5.

In any case, I'll be getting it. Can't wait... love this stuff!
