New Metal Gear Solid 4 screens (SPOIIIILLLLERS)

Then how do you explain the
trencoat? It's the SAME trenchcoat from the Big Boss artwork in the MGS artwork.

actually, why does
big boss artwork even exist in mgs ? he died in mg2:ss and you never see him in mgs anyway, not even in flashback form.
i don't know, maybe the theory of
the big boss you kill in mg2:ss being just another clone could apply, although that would be a very cheap trick on kojima's behalf. Who knows, though; after mgs3 people really liked naked snake/big boss so maybe he thought of a way to revive him and have father and son fighting side by side against ocelot and whatnot ? that would be touching and quite epic and would give Kojima the opportunity to clear things between solid and big boss, and also explore the father/son theme he likes so much. Still it would be too damn cheap.
.

Also, to people still complaining about liquid ocelot stuff; MGS3 was an awesome game also because it redeemed mgs2 by giving a half decent explanation of that, which also menaged to not sound like an afterthought. A lot of you guys must have missed it.

This.

Btw, Kagari. Can you confirm if the Strategy guide hits your store on June 6th or June 12th? :)


!

Shipping to my store on the 6th so we can have them in time for the midnight launch.
 
shagg_187 said:
Fuck... Same goes for the game since it need to be in stock too for Midnight launch, right? :/

Yeah, but really, they're street dated and it's heavily enforced as far as breaking street date.
 
shagg_187 said:
FUCK! Thanks for answering :)

Yep.

It's going to suck having to look at the stacks of the game in the stock room for a week. People aren't allowed to touch them before release because if you do, you'll probably get fired.

It's out at the same time in lots of different countries in four continents. I'm SURE somebody will break the street date. That's why everybody should get blackout'd on june 3 or something like that :lol

Have you seen those badass screenshots THIS big before? 2048 x 1152 in its original form, with no watermarks, bigger than the 1080p used by gaming websites... You can see that Solid Snake has no iris on the fourth one! o_O

That's awesome, thanks.

Holy shit at people going nutters a few pages back, LOL. The spoiler picture that was posted is several weeks old to boot :lol

I didn't notice Vamp in "14_mgs4_screenshot_d2210_10 copy copy" until I saw the high resolution original. That and the Octopus logos on the PMC uniforms. The attention to detail is staggering, even by Kojima's standards.

I'd probably sacrifice my job if I was in your position, the temptation would be too unbearable.

At least you can smell the box

Some might consider that a spoiler though
 
One of the thing that's still up in the air is the music that you can listen to on the ipod. I know you can listen to music from the game and past games, but not too sure about listening to music that's on your PS3 Hd.

Speaking of which, what is the reason for there not being a new version of the Metal Gear Solid theme, according to the soundtrack tracklist? Don't tell me it's because of that controversy where it sounds like that old Russian classical song...?

I love the theme song :(

I got a feeling the song "Metal Gear Saga" could be it. Since that's also written by HGW.
 
hirokazu said:
Just looked over the high res screenshots...

DO NOT STRIKE THIS SURFACE :lol

I wonder if that's a hint for taking them down, as in you actually want to STRIKE THIS SURFACE. With, like, a Stinger or something.

I'm pretty sure this was discussed before... and that you can't.

What about the bundles? How many are you getting?

That won't stop managers from doing it.

Next Saturday there's going to be tons of spoilers all over the place online. So annoying.
 
This thread as so little to do with these screenshots anymore; shouldn't we make an Official Thread? It's so close to release...

I'm glad they're waiting till at least the 1st of June, it's annoying to open an official thread for a game and have to wade through days and days of posts before you get to anyone who's actually played the game and can provide impressions.

You just know someone will touch them and then post pics online just like GTA pics and that person will be fired.
 
Laurent said:
It's worth getting fired for...

Probably, If I worked at GS and the guides and game were in the back, I would not resist. I'll wait for the manager to go to lunch and sneak a peek.

Thankfully I do not work for GS or I'll be fired. :D
 
Laurent said:
Cool!

Oh it's so nice of you to ask, would you mine doing so? :lol

edit: this seriously reminds me of that incredibly retarded "OH LOOK, MERYL'S NIPPLE, ROFL ROFL ROFL" debacle. There are STILL people on the internet who believe its her nipple, too, despite having been proven wrong.
