The third title in the series is a stand alone? What? I thought it was like some flashback thing like a prequel.

Well, it is a prequel in that it happens first, but because it happens first it doesn't need you to have played any of the others. MGS2 for example is meaningless if you haven't played MGS1. Literally, it the whole game is based on the premise you've played the first one. MGS1 is a PS1 game, so wouldn't look great.

I think Snake Eater is a genius choice.

You move the system now, that's the second analog. Yay for accelerometers and gyroscopes.

Tilt + 3D seems like an unnecessarily awkward situation. Hopefully they just let you use the Peace Walker shooter method.

Why didn't Kid Icarus look this good?

i don't know how that is a good and precise thing on a portable system. You have to look at the screen to see the 3d effect but at the same time move the system? i do not see it. I may be wrong, but sometimes what already works is fine. They could've added a second analog there.

Having the same controls as PW is fine, but being a new console and seeing how a second analog was needed for PSP i see this as a bad decision.

I'd expect a trailer tomorrow at Konami's conference, unless it's REALLY far off. You can see Big Boss in gameplay with the health/stamina bar and the threat ring from MGS4 added, so it has to be in some playable form already.

Oh I agree with you guys, wish there was a second analog slider.

I mentioned the tilt controls because in the Iwata Asks video, they mention that exact same control setup for first person shooters.

Tilt to look/aim.
Although he wasn't actually tilting, he was physically moving it, keeping his eyes right on the screen and moving with it.

So like, hold it above you to look up, hold it below you to look down, etc.

probably tilt + exterrnal camera to be more precise. It is too early to judge, i hope it works well, i don't want a second powerful portable system unable to give me a similar gameplay experience as home consoles.

Feels like the constrictor around GAF's throat is finally lifting. This looks unbelievably good for a handheld. I'm buying this system day one, and I've never really been a handheld owner.

i like where is this going, job well done Nintendo! Who can say anything about 3rd party now?
Click to expand...

3rd party missed the Wii train and got in late on the DS one. They arent making the same mistake again. :lol

The only thing i need now is a release date.

I'd say analog stick + touch screen is a decent alternative to dual analogs. Hopefully Nintendo ship it with one of those thumb straps again or it uses a capacitive touchscren.

It does tie in with the other games, but I'm guessing his point is that the you don't have to know anything about them in order to understand the story in MGS3.

holy shit this looks real time

looks better than Peace Walker and apparently has better facial animation and real time cut-scenes unlike the MGS games on the PSP.

anyway, DAY 1.

Peace Walker is not a console port.

However, I trust KojiPro. I'm sure this will be fantastic.

Peace walker runs on a port of the MGS3 engine and has pretty similar gameplay... and I'd argue the controls are better than MGS3.

Too much bloom.

But it's incredible for a handheld -- I would say it surpasses PS2-level graphics in most areas, all while outputting in 3D. Fantastic.

'the naked sample' tagline worries me. i hope it just refers to the media konami is offering, if not it sounds like it'll just be a condensed version of mgs3, and graphics or not that would suck.

I actually think this might only be a tech demo. And not a full game at all.

Naked Sample refers to the tech demo at the showfloor, yes. The game itself is Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3D. Hopefully there will be more information at the Konami conference tomorrow that clears stuff up, but I'm fairly certain it is a real game. Kojima just tweeted that he is indeed directing it.

Are those screens representative of what the 3DS can do in an actual game? They look better than anything I've seen on the Wii.

It's not just screens. There's cam footage floating around of the tech demo on the showfloor. It pretty much looks like that, and you can move camera to tilt it, playing with the "3D" effect. It's not actually playable though.

theres a debate about that. does it mean gigabytes or gigbites or some other shit.

It would be silly if the largest card available was 2 Gbit since there are already DS games coming out that are bigger than that.

That guy just can't let go of Big Boss / MGS3, can he? :p
