I think there's going to be cross-gen versions probably too. And they will give them subtitles like, "Big Boss Edition."

And maybe they will release it on Wiiu?

It's a safe bet hopefully. As for Orbis/Durango, KojiPro can't announce games for next gen systems that don't exist (yet)

But porting it to them would certainly ease development going into MGS5...

Or maybe Kojima is working on Orbis/Durango right now in secret?

 

[Fersis]

improved animations are amongst my favorite improvements in games right now.

Indeed, layered/procedural animation blending is my favorite 'new tech' this gen.

Also KojiPro is so beyond the competion in terms of Cutscene direction and production that is not even funny.

 

[The One Who Knocks]

OK that was about 1 minute of gameplay after 9 minutes of cutscenes.

More gameplay there.

ok that was metal gear

 

[Mrbob]

So good. I'm buying Peace Walker digital version now to play through.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

The cloth physics. It blew me away, and was the one thing that made the video look almost like a film at a few parts.

http://i.minus.com/iyfMrvvoWYHbv.gif

it's a cutscene, it is probably an animation.

 

[NIN90]

Also Kojima really likes that "Kept you waiting, huh?" line.

 

[Endo Punk]

Love the way he gets back to his feet.

My jaw has never hit the floor this hard.

 

[Error]

OK that was about 1 minute of gameplay after 9 minutes of cutscenes.

the 15 minutes video has about 6-7 minutes of gameplay.

 

[Live Free or Die]

I really dont want to subscribe to ign prime just to download the trailer.

 

[Thoraxes]

Yeah. I'm assuming 3 based on the fact it'll be heavy in the audio/cinema area AND it's open-world. Could be 4 depending on how big the world is, exactly.

One thing for sure, Kojima always delivers on the whole package. The man loves high quality production values.

 

[Lima]

Long as they keep all the weird stuff out of it. The first box I see him crawl under; it's gonna kill it for me.

That isn't weird at all. A man in France broke out of prison using the box technique. That is some serious high profile stealth shit.

 

[SniperHunter]

I can't even think about calculus anymore!! DAMN YOU KOJIMA!!!! I was suppose to submit this unit today!

Well he started it in MGS1 in realtime... The industry just follows.

 

[Solid warrior]

The people who thinks this is MGS4 animation, needs reality check.

 

[Hyuga]

FIXED

Because you're going to want to play the game the way it looked in this demo, if not better by the time it comes out. No way the PS3 or 360 can do this game justice with their old hardware.

Well, you have to play it on the PS3/X360, if you want the console version.

 

[Fried Food]

wait, so they are developing this and MGS5 at the same time? Did they just announce MGS5?

 

[Elios83]

Seems like Watch Dogs part two in terms of graphics.
They say it's for current gen too but it looks like PC DX11 graphics (basically next gen consoles).

 

[Thoraxes]

The people who thinks this is MGS4 animation, needs reality check.

It's FOX ENGINE animation. I think we're just scratching the surface of what his new engine can do. I mean, they built the thing from scratch, offering them better control not only over the pipeline of the engine, but they can fully tune it to the kind of game they want to make with it.

 

[injurai]

mgs4 animation was goofy, but i loved every second of it. Awkward behavior is like a metal gear trope. I however am loving these improvements.

 

[RamzaIsCool]

Looks awesome!!!

It seems doable on current gen machines, dunno... can somebody digg up that Beyond: two souls gif, featuring an awesome looking model of Elen Page? That seemed comparable to this in many ways, tho this is openworld and that game is not. It will be intresting to see how it's going to pan out. If this is 2013 then that year is shaping up to be the best one ever, like seriously ghis time.

And you can set your own tune to the arrival of the helicoper? Awesome... Thunderstruck from AC/DC it is then!

 

[The One Who Knocks]

They did announce MGS5, yes (in so much as that this is a prologue to MGS5 which is presumably a Metal Gear remake).

 

[SmithnCo]

Yeah, that crawl to crouch transition looks way better.

 

[NIN90]

bu bu bu but Peace Walker is MGS5

 

[jsnepo]

This reminded me of the opening sequence of the The Rock.

 

[Reiko]

bu bu bu but Peace Walker is MGS5

Since Rising is turning out excellent... Peace Walker being MGS5 is a retcon.

 

[Synless]

I'm not crazy to state that I have seen better demos elsewhere. The game looks good, it just doesn't make me want to procreate with an inanimate object.

On the HD twins? Care to show me some examples? I'd like to see them.

Edit* didn't realize this was on a PC hardware, disregard.

 

[Squire]

One thing for sure, Kojima always delivers on the whole package. The man loves high quality production values.

True. And KP is a team of tech wizards. I imagine they've found some clever workarounds in the PS3 and 360 hardware. And as mentioned earlier, trickery is their game. I think that comes from film being such a massive influence on Kojima. That sort of thing is highly valued in that medium, but I digress.

 

[meta4]

Def way better than MGS4. Not TLOU level but way better than MGS4. This game is looking awesome. FK SC. Finally a stealth game!

I don't think TLOU has dogs animating like that in GZ. Even though it was a cutscene... Those dogs felt real.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

They just said this'll be a prequel to MGS5 AFAIK (and we all knew there would be more MGS games anyway, that IP is basically the only AAA IP Konami has left, with Silent Hill on life support, FIFA slaughtering PES and Castlevania being a rung below AAA status).

The best thing about the end of a consoles life is what I call the "Donkey Kong Country" moment.

Looks like this gen has the best example of it!

Eat crow suckers!

 

[leadbelly]

Like the full game then.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Yeah the dogs animations are incredible. A gif from the dogs at the beginning would be great.

 

[Rice-Eater]

Well, you have to play it on the PS3/X360, if you want the console version.

Pretty much I'm assuming they're already working on the next gen versions. Just that they can't announce it since MS and Sony haven't announced it yet. Just my hopes and assumptions though. I would be very disappointed if that weren't the case though as I'm primarily a console gamer.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

This is the effect that a new MGS has on me. I immediately want it above everything else.

I know. I forgot it was possible for me to get this excited about an upcoming game.

 

[injurai]

Like the full game then.

I know this is a running joke, but MGS is filled with great gameplay. I for one love the cutscenes. I wouldn't want every game to do it, but with MGS it works.

 

[aeolist]

On the HD twins? Care to show me some examples? I'd like to see them.

Yeah there's no way it'll look like that on PS360

 

[meta4]

TLOU had dogs in it for comparison? I was just talking in terms of in game animations from what I have seen so far. Obviously the finished product could look way better in terms of animation for both.

 

[KingKong]

Ground Zeroes is such a funny name

 

[Mooreberg]

Giving "Rising" to Platinum and getting to work on something like this was the best decision ever. Looks like it could be a big shift for the series.

 

[Endo Punk]

I think it's safe to say that the 3-4 years Kojima spent on Fox Engine were worth it. I just hope we get an original title from the engine, would love to see Project Ogre because I am not convinced that it's a code name for another MGS or this one.

 

[GayForMaster]

Damn that was fucking awesome! Glad it's coming out to 360 as well.

 

[indigo-cyclops]

This is about where I am on this whole thing. This is just downright amazing, I'm floored.

 

[meta4]

OK that was about 1 minute of gameplay after 9 minutes of cutscenes.

And that one minute of gameplay will destroy most other bullshit open world games with their boring fetch quests and grinding nonsense.

 

[zerodayPopbot]

Last of Us has nothing on this, though that's probably more down to the art direction than tech stuff.

They're not demoing TLoU on a high-end PC either

If it's announced for PS4, then yes, I will get it for that.
I actually kind of hope that they do. This would be amazing as a launch game.
Amazing.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

IGN thinks scarface is The Fury from MGS3.

 

[linkboy]

I agree. I think it's Big Boss training Solid Snake.

In the original MG, Big Boss was Snake's commanding officer. Snake will have had to work with him at some point.

This game is going to knock my socks off, I can't wait to play it.

I like this era of MGS games over the newer ones (MGS2/4), its just a much better setting.
