Anywhere from Holiday 10 to June 11 could be possible, really.
 
oh shit just see some scans :D is it MGS5?

Below are excerpts we translated. Each "X" refers to a corresponding white circle Famitsu used to blot out important info. If you are planning on filling in the blanks, do keep in mind that they refer to a single Japanese character.

Hamamura: XXXXXXXXX's XXXXXX?
Kojima: But, XXXXXXXXX. It's XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.
Hamamura: Ah! I get it!!
Kojima: "XXXXX XXXXX XXX". Well, it's not "X", but a "X" kind of feeling. That's him. I can't say the title yet, but it's this kind of feeling. But it's the Metal Gear saga's tradition.
Hamamura: The time period is XXX?
Kojima: No, it's XXX. I'm saying everything, maybe XXXXX. I'm designing and directing all of this game.
Hamamura: Wha!
Kojima: I think the focus will be domestic, and we're launching it globally. For me, this is like "XXXX". I won't say "X", but a solid story has been created, and the MGS4 staff is making it.
Hamamura: Wow! That's great.

Kojima: This time, only the image of this guy (image) will appear. Then lighting. Just this appearing, I wan everyone to guess. This is how XX's will be appearing.
Hamamura: This...is Big Boss?
Kojima: XX's way of appearing is slightly different.
Hamamura: Eh? Different...?

Kojima: The emblem on this guy's hat is important.
Hamamura: The emblem isn't a fox. There's like a world map thing drawn.
Kojima: It's not only an emblem, but for the game, it will be a new type of system.
Hamamura: Is it XX-XXXXXXXXXX?
Kojima: Yes. You'll while XXXXXXX. XXXX, etc. are a given, so they'll be included. Ooops, I've said more than I was planning to. (laughs)
Hamamura: Hahahahaha! Well XXXXXX, it's XXXXXXX? Also, where's the game going to be set?
Kojima: The place is XXXXXXX. XXXXXXXXX happened, and it's a XXXXX type of country. There isn't XXXXXXXX in the country, but they do have XX like things and XXXX. At that time, XXXXXX come to where the guy is.

Kojima: The theme is XX. XXXXX kinda thing or XXX theme, or XXXXXXXXXXXX, or why is there X, that's where we're drawing. Maybe everyone is probably thinking, "This sermon again!" Maybe this sermon will become a genre. (laughs)
Hamamura: Ahahahaha!
Kojima: This is quite a deep interview.
Hamamura: So true!

Gah...

There's nothing better than an E3 with a Kojima trailer reveal...

My fondest E3 memories are from MGS trailers @ E3.

I hope this one doesn't disappoint.
 
After reading that interview I now think that picture is NOT Big Boss and is actually Solidus Snake. This will be a Solidus Snake and Raiden origin story. That's my guess.
 
I'm not going to dig through this shit, and the OP hasn't been updated since the first day - what exactly has been announced?

The most important part of that "interview".



Kojima is going to work on MGS games for the rest of his life. :lol

Hopefully his new IP takes off and he won't have to pump out MGS game after MGS game.

Game. Set and Match. Everything I knew is fucking different. This isn't Big Boss. It's Old Snake who has overcome the aging process. Look at the suit, It's the Old Snake's suit.

Oh and WHO AM I KIDDING? None of the guesses here will matter! Kojima will fuck with our minds again!!!
 
Raiden and Big Boss in one game? Doesn't make much sense at all.
I bet on a totally weird and absurd explanation!!

It's a shame that Big Boss looks so friggin' cool on these pictures, but at the end he'll again only be a horny and dumb fool like in MGS3. So sad.... Awesome character-design... Totally wasted....
 
Fuck this shit. Kojima will make Solid games 'till the day he dies.

I can't fucking believe I thought he would do something else :lol :lol :lol

Do not want.
 
huh...

I think what Kojima means by meaning to focus the game domestically, he means to try and appeal more to the Japanese mainstream like what they tried to do with Raiden and MGS2's marketing campaign.
 
My prediction:

Konami teased on the PSBlog

Stay tuned for updates in the coming weeks, as the one-year anniversary of the launch of Metal Gear Solid 4 approaches, we’ll be revealing even more awesome stuff to celebrate!
Click to expand...

I predict TWO seperate DLC packs for MGS4, which 1) adds the post-Portable Ops story of Big Boss, and what happened to him after his "death" by solid snake. 2) The backstory to Raiden saving Sunny and him becoming Cyborg Ninja.

Also, the word on the street is working on multiple games, so expect maybe 2 other games besides these DLC packs.
 
Well to be honest if this turns out good, I can pretend it's MGS4 and current gen Metal Gear Solid is back!

Maybe we'll see a similar development in terms of the story like from Sons of Liberty to Snake Eater.
 
Mystery solved

Hamamura: PENISASSASS's PENIS!?
Kojima: But, PENISASSASS. It's PENISPENISPENISPENIS.
Hamamura: Ah! I get it!!
Kojima: "PENIS PENIS ASS!". Well, it's not "!", but a "!" kind of feeling. That's him. I can't say the title yet, but it's this kind of feeling. But it's the Metal Gear saga's tradition.
Hamamura: The time period is ASS!?
Kojima: No, it's ASS!. I'm saying everything, maybe PENIS. I'm designing and directing all of this game.
Hamamura: Wha!

SIGH. I mentally erased the Penis/Ass stuff while reading this.... and now I'm hyped to learn more. Kojima talking about it as a country/one place has me so excited... I found the gloe trotting in MGS4 to me less immersible and was hoping they'd go back to one environment/setting.

So has that original summary about Big Boss really being Akiba, PSP/PS3 connectivity etc been debunked?
 
Sorry, rather I mean the 'This character isn't Big Boss but rather another MGS character/his latest clone who has been in MGS1 2 and 4.'

That's probably why Ryan is not there any more.
I REALLY want them to take it back to the 'old' MGS. Let Kojima Productions do their own thing. Stop trying to westernize MGS. MGS4's gameplay was a little too open ended.

Uhm? Kojima stopped fucking with our minds since people complained about MGS2 (arguably the only MGS game were he truly fucked with our minds). Every other Metal Gear after that has been pretty simple and straightforward. This character is Big Boss, it's as simple as that.

Agreed 100%. I still have hopes that, since MGS3's Naked Snake was young and pure, this new version of Big Boss will be the experienced badass that we all want to see, something in the vein of MGS2's Solid Snake. But after seeing MGS4's Old Snake and his personality (or rather, his lack of one), there's no doubt of where this is going.

btw, has anyone commented on the emblem of Big Boss' cap? It looks like a unified world, an obvious reference to The Boss' dream, but the shape of it forms a skull. Pretty cool.

The vibe I get is that Kojima can't walk away, he's a perfectionist. Konami is not going to stop the Metal Gear franchise, just look at their financials from last year and the impact MGS had on it. So Konami will continue the series without Kojima if need be, problem is that I don't think Kojima can just walk away while someone else takes over and he sees it not up to the level he would want. IIRC Kojima had a hands-off approach MGS3 for a while but ended up completely taking over to get the project back on track.

Perfectionism is the road to ruin. Ask 3DRealms. Keep making Metal Gears "until they're perfect" and they're only gonna get worse.
