New Metal Gear Solid 4 screens (SPOIIIILLLLERS)

trencoat? It's the SAME trenchcoat from the Big Boss artwork in the MGS artwork.
...All we can see is a collar, which may or may not belong to a trenchcoat.

....And a trenchcoat is a trenchcoat.

I originally asked to do it, got approval, finished about half of it then I got several PM's from Bruce and I told him that he can go ahead and throw his up because I heard it was really great. So that's what is going on. From what I've heard (and seen) it's going to be a great thread.

Just for the hell of it, here was my very work in progress banner:

Any one remember the Showfax "Snake Eater" leak?
Spoilers about nearly every character in the game leaked like 6 months before the game came out. Including detail that were only hinted at in the final game.

Good times.

It doesn't have to, he clearly has blonde hair there
It's a black and white artist rendition of a briefing. But yeah, I agree it's rather confusing, but the fact that he keeps his brown hair after the Shadow Moses incident, and that he had brown hair before in the original, that whole story about him being blond doesn't hold up.

If you want to read a pissed off guy ramble about the fact that Solid Snake isn't blond: http://www.thesnakesoup.org/?section=myths&content=hair

Watch it

Colonel says "other than your skin tone, you're exact duplicates". Not to mentions he clearly had blonde hair in the video (exact same as Liquid when his profile picture was shown). Then he says he'll change his hair and ends up at Shadow Moses with dark hair

You do understand that Snake had brown hair in Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, don't you? And no, he doesn't "clearly" have blonde hair in the video. It's the lighting/shadowing effects that make his hair appear differently. And he never says anything about "changing his hair." He asks if he can borrow Naomi's scissors and that he wants to "clean himself up a little" as to not be mistaken as the leader of the terrorists.

Ohh, SMEXIEH RAIDEN :D :D :D!!!!
 
Can somebody link me the 6 or 7 "leaked" MGS4 wallpapers from the konami site?

someone got them before they were taken down, but i cant find them anymore. id prefer 1600x version of them if possible. thanks
 
the fact that snakes hair was blonde during the briefing in mgs1 seems to be one of those things that is forgotten. I think he was originally supposed to have lighter hair, but for whatever reason they changed it down the line. In Twin Snakes his hair wasn't blonde, not that that really validates anything seeing as it wasn't made by konami. it would make sense for him to have blonde hair seeing as snake had the recessive genes to begin with, but then that would mean that liquid should have had darker hair OR that both were blondes while Solidus (the true superior one) had darker hair. I try not to even think about it really as, I don't think they really planned it out well from the beginning.

I think I'll watch the briefing in Twin Snakes just now... to make sure.
 
So the MGS 4 ost is released on thursday right? I mean I've liked the music that I've heard but the music doesn't seem as exciting as MGS 2/3. Maybe it's the lack of Norihiko Hibino?

I just want to know if the apparent 'controversial' MGS theme is in the game, Russian classical music fans be damned! :D

It's the lack of the MGS theme in hardly any version of the trailers. It always pumps me up, but the closest we got was an acoustic guitar version in the TGS 2006 gameplay trailer.

all the dudes with ballcaps look like private security, is that a big part of mgs4?

?

Yes huge YES, not spoiler or anything its been known since the first trailer, wont delve into it but yeah more than one PMC but all owned by one guy...... Meow.

I'll bet that it be in the game. On the official site, you can hear sunny humming it.

Pretty sure it's not the MGS main theme, it sounds more like the song from the end of the MGO trailer.

It's more "movie-like". I'm definitely gonna miss Hibino's more gamey compositions. The alert and boss tracks in MGS3 were amazing.

Someone out there will have a copy a few days before release, you can count on it.
As soon as a copy of the game hits a store, it's GAME OVER (usually 3 days before release - so around June 8th/9th).
But, on the bright side - people won't be able to pirate it (at all). :D

I'm crossing my fingers for the street date to be broken. :(
I'm pretty sure the street date on the 80 gig bundle is going to be pretty widely broken unless Sony decides to wait until 6/11 to get it into stores. Wal-mart employees will just think it's a regular PS3 and put it in the case.

I changed it just a tad.

Hope you don't mind man.
 
so.... apparently Kojima might be dropping by london a little earlier than expected, huh? At least you guys in London get some signed shit :(
 
Laurent's is definitely the best of the lot. An additional image where tha_con wouldn't be bad but it'd only look good with a kind of beveled, semi-transparent frame. Kinda "Apple-y" but less "web 2.0". If that makes any sense.

Personally I'd prefer him making a come back over BB!!
Actually it's already looking like Solidus is back. If you watch that new Theatrical trailer they released you can hear his voice. It's somewhere around 1:15 or 1:30..I can't remember.
 
industrian said:
Especially considering that
Solidus was easily one of the most interesting characters in the MGS Saga. Listen to what he speaks about, and he easily fits into the category of anti-hero alongside Solid. His methods are just extremely brutal (considering what he's been through, that's to be expected.) He opposes the Patriots as he wants to be remembered, and they would have his very existence wiped from history with GW and the S3 Plan.

Plus he's a badass. Ex-Presidents + powered armour + katanas + P90s + John Cygan = awesomeness defined.
Fuck YES!!!!
I fucking love his character :lol: My MOST FAVORITE MGS character ever, and John Cygan's voice is just BADASS!! He was such an under-developed character in MGS2 and did not have many scenes in the game, but the one that he appeared in were fucking awesome and BADASS!!!

Oh God, I hope you're right!!!!!
 
The textures on the rock on the first screen is cringe worthy.
Then again I don't really care for details all that much. Though I wish this game was a powerhouse like 2 was on the Ps2, but it's not Kojima's fault.

...It's a fucking rock. Go outside and look at a rock in real-life. There's not much detail on it.

While MGS4 doesn't blow me away visually like MGS2 did back in the day, neither did MGS3 when I saw it in trailers/pics. But while playing MGS3, everything came together beautifully and some of the set-pieces battles later on in the game were epic. I'm expecting the same from MGS4, the Rex vs. Ray battle shown in some trailers has got me excited, I hope for tons of epic battles in 4.

It's from his MGS2's voice overs. They re-used and edited two seperate sentences together.

Next Friday is a scary, scary day. That's all I have to say.

For people avoiding spoilers, starting next friday...good luck.

You referring to May 30, or June 6? And what exactly do you mean? The strategy guide?
