how is this possible on 360 when mgs4 wasnt ?
will it ship on multiple cds ?

Completely different engine that's much more efficient and built for multi-platform use. We don't know about how many DVD's.

I forgot, the few black guys in this series must be related somehow (Still laugh at how Sigint became the Darpa Chief).

Drebin is fighting for the Lord's Resistance in Uganda some time in 1987. Timeline fits, and we're likely going to see some African countries.

Also, a lot of the people of other races (and sexes) within the series usually end up being related too. It's just one of the things of the Metal Gear games at this point, for better or for worse.

I'd rather see more Shinkawa work adapted to the game than anything.

Raiden was supposed to crawl on all four and lick bird poop. I think a lot of the ridiculous stuff probably comes from him more than Kojima.

That would have been a great scene. Raiden would have gone "!" and told Rose what exactly the bird ate from its poop.

His art style is great.

Well the painful truth is that I got my MGS1 right at the European launch. Thus becoming the first game I bought day one, with my own money, based on magazine and media hype.

I was trying to look outside the nostalgic perspective. Which is the biggest reason I've played trough MGS well over 30 times since I was 9 years old.

Lots of nostalgia attached to MGS1 for me as I was hyped through the roof reading about it for years before it's release. I always have to try and remove that when comparing each game in the series. Even when I get rid of that I still think it is one of the better entries in the series.
 
So, who's Big Boss infiltrating in Afghanistan, in the trailer? I saw some guys who wear blue berets. Is that the UN or NATO or something?

This is a good question, especially if Kojima is really serious about going after more realistic and adult themes with this game because he could possibly end up pissing people off (and not in the usual Kojima way).
 
Yeah. It'd be crazy if Diamond Dogs also goes against people and soldiers linked to the UN and stuff, not out of enmity but just good old wetwork. Big Boss against the world!

Man, I'm loving Big Boss' look in Afghanistan. The hair, the clothing, etc. It just screams awesome to me.
 
It's in 1984 during the time Russia invaded Afghanistan. Not to mention they're all dressed as Russians and have Russian equipment/weapons.

Yeah, I know about the Afghanistan war stuff, but I got confused by the blue berets at first. I also totally forgot that the soldier that Big Boss disarmed had an AK. Feel fo stupid lol.
 
So it's safe to say they're Russians.

Absolutely. Look at past MGS games. The soldiers usually carry equipment based on their nationality or allegiance. MGS2 and 3 are the best examples.

No worries. The blue beret is commonly worn by Russian paratroopers, which I think someone else pointed out.

Last time I post one of these. Just for you folks considering playing the Metal Gear games to learn the story and prepare for MGSV

Playing Peace Walker right now. Be warned he's going to play every single audio tape so only about 20% of this will be gameplay :lol

Can I watch that whole thing recorded later on? Also, does it have commentary?

Every stream should be stored in the streamer's video section for at least a week

He usually comments, just not over cutscenes or important dialogue.
He's been starting all his streams with MGSV discussions. Talking about all the theories people come up with.

He plays most MGS games, usually either a story run or a Big Boss Rank run. Definitely worth a follow.

yeah that's too easy though. its more interesting to see how they go through each dramatic scene and take away any depth they had to it.

And on the sixth day the LORD David Bowie created man and woman in His image. And he saw that it was good. On the seventh day the LORD created videogames so that He might take the bloody day off for once.
replaying through mgs1 recently, this codec really stood out to me:
http://youtu.be/VOUeR1v5uZ4?t=3m45s

interesting to see snakes view on big boss.
My favorite codec in the game.

And you were able to kill him, knowing that?
Yup.
How?
He wanted it. Besides, some people just need killing...
That's patricide!
Yup.


Goddamn. Coldblooded, but not exactly vindictive about the whole thing. It speaks volumes.
Also David Hayter at his best. His performance never quite reached that level again.

"What if we added more jet fighter swooshes and sweet backflips?"

"Um, this is a dramatic speech scene, sir..."

"SWOOSHES!"

Coldblooded describes Solid Snake in MGS1 in a nutshell fairly perfectly.

I don't need any partners. I work better alone.
Snake...if I slow you down, you can shoot me.
I don't like to waste bullets.

after the Mantis fight

I've seen true evil. You Snake. You're just like the Boss (Liquid)... No, you're worse. Compared to you, I'm not so bad.

later when captured by Sniper Wolf

Should I kill you now? Or after your female friend?
I'll die after I kill you.
 
Yep, still prefer TTS version of that scene. Much more dramatic.

The original shows that Sniper Wolf had no interest in shooting Snake, the TTS version shows that she tried and missed. It's like Silicon Knights had gone too long without having Snake dodge a bullet and they just had to slip one in there.

Kitamura originally had cutscenes that were toned down and nowhere near as crazy but Kojima asked him to ramp them up.

It's probably the translation Jeremy Blaustein did for that game.

It's both. Hayter's MGS1 performance of Snake was painful or something, so he recreated it so it was less painful for his throat. Shamefully from then on wards most of his acting was trying to imitate the original MGS1 voice, as opposed to actually acting it.

And yeah, the liberties Blaustein took with MGS1 were great. TTS follows the original script more faithfully, and it's less effective for it. I can understand why Kojima was annoyed, but Blaunstein's changes were for the better.
 
Did he also ask Kitamura to have Snake stare uncomprehendingly at a red laser for thirty seconds and then only realise what's happening after Meryl gets shot? Whoever's responsible for The Twin Snakes done fucked up bad :p

Not a huge MGS fan. Played a lot of 1, beat 2, touched 3 for 15 minutes, never played 4. This has some neat graphics, but Keifer Sutherland's voice aggravates me greatly. And the music in the OP video is horrid stuff. Still might give the game a shot some day, though.
