Novery, the twins demands the video of kojima playing MGS4 5 minutes after the party is over on tuesday 24th 
Make it happen!
Make it happen!
Perhaps Metal Gear 1&2 remakes (PSN/XBLA?)? Perhaps Metal Gear Solid 1, 2 and 3 up for download from the PSN in build up to MGS4?
Kojima made a point of saying MGS4 was his last foray into this universe - his last foray - so perhaps there is the possibility of another game from a different director in the Metal Gear or Metal Gear Solid series?

It's like wondering if Nintendo would drop Mario after Miyamoto retirement.
Kojima already hinted at his successor:

Ryan said on the last Kojima Podcast that the gameplay video would come sometime after the 24th but before August 20th (Leipzig).

Where'd that rumor come from? Ryan said there would be two new MGS-related products at the 20th Anniversary party, and I think those are MPO+ and Metal Gear Online.

MGO hasn't been seen, at all. In fact, it's being debuted at the show next week. Also, MPO+'s announcement was made specifically for the 20th Anniversary, which is made clear by both its trailer and the fact it wasn't at E3.

Sounds great! Good to know you'll cover the event on the report cause Japanese events other than the TGS often go under the radar outside Japan as news site just copy paste each other's info snippets.
On a not so related note, I remember reading that Kojima wanted to make a zombie game, where if you are killed by a zombie you automatically become one yourself and cannot change back to human form, you have to now play as a zombie.
Well, it reminded of something else Kojima did before: Snatcher. In Snatcher, the Snatchers kill their counter parts and take their places in society. So zombie game+Snatcher universe = Snatcher Outbreak Online (and of course with a single player campaign too)
That's interesting!

Wow they really hate us.
I'd like to join one of these fanboy factions.

I'll say. From one of their admins:
The vast majority of gaming companies won't even acknowledge their fanbase and only comunicate through the odd high profile interview. And none I know of would hang out with MGS cosplayers and people who make MGS lego. Newsflash, all those "help and favours" you did were actually favours from Konami. How many companies would include fansites on their press list or allow devs to give interviews with them? Any promotion you give their games is far outweighed by the promotion it gives your site and the satisfaction you get from them giving you new info on the series you like most.

I think MGS TUS just shot themselfs in the foot
no more new exclusive media for them ever hahhaha :lol

TUS has always been up its own ass. The forum itself isn't that great, alot of 'forum drama' which is tiring. The actual MGS debate is pretty poor and fanboyish. I rememeber such great threads such as 'Why did Big Boss go bad?' and a very indepth thread trying to prove that Snake and Vamp where gay lovers on many occasions.
PnCIa said:Sounds like GAF...
There aren´t just MGS fanboys here though, so there is more variety.
Yes but when GAF calls itself "pre-eminent video gaming discussion forum" it's always been in an ironic, self-deprecationg sense. This is TUS's "about us" page:
It's just a website.

I want some ZOE 3 news tho, with online battles!
If not now then at TGS. Please>:|
EDIT: And about the MGS:TUS thing, NeoGAF is visited by more people. Plus, in the end most MGS fans don't even read gaming forums. The people I know at work that are also MGS fans never read GAF and have no idea what MGS:TUS is.
The internet's impact in the video game hype world is way overblown.

I didn't expect to hear such a laugh especially by you, but thanks anyway.
Oh and for the record, I have written a few times with Payton and I think the guy wont ignore the website for just a few comments.
Yes, of course I would have loved to see more attention from Konami to the fan community etc. but it's not just up to Ryan.

Better hope for that, then, because there's no way in hell they are going to announce a non-MGS game at a MGS Party. :lol
Nervous Hamster said:
You run MGS:TUS? If so, didn't you get an early copy of MGS3: Snake Eater, which means you'll probably get the same treatment with MGS4? Stop being spoiled. That's more than most fan sites get.

We got an early copy yes, but not by Konami of America and to be honest, we had a TON of problems with the review we posted back then. We were hosted by GameSpy at the time and they took down the article, cause we weren't allowed to have it up before IGN.
So... no.
But please guys, let's get back to the topic Ryan made and create the hype for the upcoming MGS party just like you did for Killzone 2

what would be the point anyway? there are fps franchises that would probably do a fps online a lil better.
besides the first mgo had gameplay that hasnt been replicated anywhere. fans of the orginal could use something thats at least somewhat similar in mgo2.

Yeah this is what I want (to some extent). I would hope that it would be more realistic than Counter Strike, more like Battlefield 2, more focus with rank based on professionalism and team work. Having to move from one location to another as a team, a bit a la Rainbow Six, to stay true to the MGS universe and how the units move (which is based on real-life tactics). That is what I would put emphasis on.
Then add commander-controlled Gekkous and the likes (which you can deploy to specific locations a bit like how in Battlefield you can drop artillery or supplies at specific locations in a map). UAVs=Bio-organic flying Gekkous as reported in the MGS4 gameplay demonstration. Etc.
Basically a game like BF2 could really be modded to make an excellent MGS4-style online game. I was actually thinking of working on such a mod recently. The Gekkou integration would have been the most complex aspect, so we put it aside and are waiting for UT3 so see if it could be implemented properly with the Unreal engine, but BF2 on its own would be easier to start from as it's closer to what we have planned (and we could test quickly by using city-maps).
Anyway MGO could be excellent.

"ugh" if Konami is going to make another MGO just for MGS fans, which means limiting the potential market for it and basically selling another MGS game to a small proportion of MGS fans.
"Woot" if Konami is going to make an MGO game that anyone could get into, even if they have never played MGS games.
You can't keep making MGS games for the established fan base. After so many sequels you either drop the series as a whole or open it up to people who never played it.
If you didn't play MGS1, you don't play MGS2, if you didn't play MGS2, you don't play MGS3, and by the time MGS4 is out you don't want to play MGS1, 2, and 3, to understand what the heck is going on in 4.
If the MGS series is to survive it has to open up and start from a clean slate, and make that obvious.

The problem with the previous MGO is that it is still too "Metal Gear". It's fine for SOME MGS fans (not for me, I like the single player mode). MGS isn't the biggest series in the world, and so far it has been supported by very hard core fans. Everytime Konami releases something MGS-related it only sells to the existing MGS fanbase. Look at RE4, there was very little about it that related to the previous RE games. This opened the game up to a whole new audience. Now look at DMC4, I know I won't play it cause I played the first one, only a bit of the second one, and never played the third one. Just by looking at it I know it's the same.
If the next MGO looks like the previous one, or looks like an MGS game (same camera, etc.) then people who are not into the series will immediately get the impression that it is not a game for them. Yet if MGO is in first person view, it sends a clear signal that this is something new, something different. For example a lot of people who are not Halo fans will get Halo Wars because they are in RTS games and just by looking at a screenshot or video of it they can tell it's a game for them.
This is what I think the MGS series needs. If it just continues along its current path the fanbase will only shrink over time. It's very difficult to grow a fanbase through sequels, you just end up losing those that got tired of the series and attract very few newcomers.
All the next MGO game needs to keep from the MGS series is the style (example the Gekkous/Metal Gears, the special units/mercs, and the type of equipment).
MGO doesn't work because it's too "Metal Gear?" I don't think there's much point in making a multiplayer mode if it doesn't have anything in common with the single-player mode. You might as well make a completely different game, and not bother calling it "Metal Gear." IMO the clean slate should wait until MGS5 (or whatever it will be called) after Kojima leaves and finishes the current story.

this talk about whats 'metal gear' and whats not 'metal gear' reminds me of that 1up show episode where they were talking about the MGS3 online mode.
