When will people stop trying to find 360 connections? :lol It's starting to get pathetic.
Bit-Bit said:I was one of the first people in this thread waaaaaay back saying that the teaser is for a Raiden game. My theory was based on the clouds looking like lightning clouds.
But here is another prediction that's going to blow ya'lls mind.
Raiden is related to Grey Fox!
FuzzyDunlop said:hm yes 360 and ps3 are there. but i think we're forgetting that the only people who give a shit are fanboys so i really cannot see kojima or konami putting it in a teaser. not to mention that you guys are counting the 3 twice.
Ether_Snake said:It is definitly going to be Raiden reliving the memories of Big Boss, it ties in perfectly to his post MGS2 and pre MGS4 actions, and it makes perfect sense as a result. We'll probably get to live the "rest" of the memories for a part of the game too (start off as Raiden, get your head chopped off, go on the operation table, hooked up to The Patriots AI, relive Big Boss' memories, play as Big Boss, wake up as Cyborg Raiden,etc.).find Big Boss' body
oooooooh, I love this ideaEther_Snake said:It is definitly going to be Raiden reliving the memories of Big Boss, it ties in perfectly to his post MGS2 and pre MGS4 actions, and it makes perfect sense as a result.

This. Not to mention, Solidus says he killed both of Raiden's parents, but who's to say he's telling the truth, or better yet, he's misinformed. But I do doubt he's related to Gray Fox.TalonsOfJustice said:I've always thought about this because they had similar upbringings. Fought wars as a child, the use of sword, similar appearance, used as a test subject for war. Raiden fought in the Liberian civil war, while Gray Fox fought in the Mozambiqian(sp) civil war. Similar lives, but still no concrete proof of blood relation.

TalonsOfJustice said:Possibly the reason why he awakens as a badass soldier, and not the whiner that he was in mgs2.
sprocket said:I still say it would be ore bad ass if raiden is a clone of grey fox. and thats actually grey fox being shown

Another parallel is BB and Fox's relationship to each other sort of mirrors that of Snake and Raiden (but to a significantly lesser extent). Or even Naomi to Sunny, but again to a significantly lesser extent.

And look at the current countdown with the black/white flash of Big Boss. In Assassin's Creed (which we know Kojima liked and even took Altair's costume and put it into MGS4) it flashes black/white when playing the previous memories.Ether_Snake said:It is definitly going to be Raiden reliving the memories of Big Boss, it ties in perfectly to his post MGS2 and pre MGS4 actions, and it makes perfect sense as a result.

Ether_Snake said:That, also, especially if he's going to get a close view of Gray Fox through Big Boss' memories, if he doesn't outright relive Gray Fox's memories in this game, while the Big Boss memories will be the ones we already know of from MGS3 and MPO.

freethought said:Maybe it's just to establish the fact that there are two letter E's.
5 PRE e3= MGS5 is a prequel, shown at e3 (both stories are prequels). Of course, the 6 and 0 don't fit.
Gray Fox has the brown eyes. Stop with the Raiden already1. (The Big Boss image is posted above)
Interviewer: "Is that Big Boss?"
Kojima: It's a little different from XX
(or XXX's next form is a little different)
Interviewer: "Whaaaattt? Different???"
2. 
Kojima: I still can't tell you what the title is, but this is the real deal. Put it this way, it's part of the orthodox "Metal Gear Saga"
(The text below was mostly blocked out, but it talked about what timeframe the game is based in, and it appears that it's across all time periods)
3.
Kojima: I want the game's core to be aimed towards Japan, and released globally. XXX... It's being made by MGS4 staff
Interviewer: That's awesome!
4.
Kojima: The symbol on the cap of the old man (he did not say Big Boss) will be important
Interviewer: This symbol is different from the fox, it looks like a world map
Kojima: No just the mark, but the system of the game will be new!
Note: Kojima uses "This old man" a lot through the interview rather than referring to Big Boss
5.
Interviewer: It sounds interesting, but do you think people will understand it at all?
Kojima: I think people will understand
Well... Tried my best to translate it, but it's so hard with all the blocked out text... bloody Kojima. That's all I can do for now, maybe I'll give it another go later
Summary:
Interestingly the old man in the cap might not be Big Boss, the story will be part of the main MGS saga and it will go through different time periods. New game system, and it's being made by the staff from MGS4
...there was a history repeats motif at the end of MGS4? I've always felt it very prevelant throughout the MGS series, period.vandalvideo said:After all thatI would not be surprised.'history repeats itself' motiff crap that was shoved down our throats at the end of Metal Gear Solid 4
Darkpen said:...there was a history repeats motif at the end of MGS4? I've always felt it very prevelant throughout the MGS series, period.
MG2:SS > MGS1 > MGS2 in terms of structure (there's a ninja in every one of them).
MGS2's case of Olga's child being snatched away > MGS3's case of The Boss's child being snatched away
etc
Makes sense. Why would Raiden be with a younger Big Boss in these teasers if it was otherwise? MGS5 is a prequel. That is all.Hy_ said:It's a prequel with Null and Big Boss. Null will be voiced by Quinton Flynn, in the same manner that Naked Snake was voiced by David Hayter in MGS3.
PLEASE KOJIMA!
freethought said:Anyone else notice a strange 'box' going down the left hand side of the flash site? Just a graphical glitch presumably but I keep thinking I see a shape.
edit: Pretty sure it's just a glitch in the rain graphic. I'm guess I'm just tired. :lol
Yes, it was called Dr. Clark and Madnar's cybernetics fun time, funded by the Patriots.soldat7 said:Les Enfants Terribles. What if there was another program similar to this? That might explain why Raiden of MGS4 and this character (Grey Fox???) look alike...
WinFonda said:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v133/dizzle1980/bigboss_kp.jpg
My new wild theory.
That could be Zanzibar Land on Big Boss's beret there. And the character in the scans who we think is Raiden is actually Gray Fox from Metal Gear 2.
FuzzyDunlop said:im guessing this is sarcasm...
if you mean it means e3, yes, that is probably true.
but it doesnt fit with the ps360 interpretation.
this is what people are saying. some of the letters/numbers are what platforms its on, some of it is e3 (oh, excuse me, just "e" since the 3 has already been used over its allowance) and the R is there just to fuck with our heads
360 confirmed!
people are just picking and choosing and seeing what they want to see when in reality it probably stands for something we will never figure out. i would not be surprised if when we get the game we still didnt know what the fuck the letters and numbers mean. its meant to get us excited, not to tell us something important or give clues. Mission accomplished
vandalvideo said:You must have missed that hour long monologue Big Boss did at the end after part of the credits where he talks about 0 goes to 1 then 100, back to 0, blah blah blah, history repeats itself, we finally get to end the chain, blah blah blah. Grats Snake
Well, that felt more like a punctuation to a repeating motif that I'm rather familiar with. It didn't feel forced to me :/vandalvideo said:You must have missed that hour long monologue Big Boss did at the end after part of the credits where he talks about 0 goes to 1 then 100, back to 0, blah blah blah, history repeats itself, we finally get to end the chain, blah blah blah.

I'm pretty sure on one of the last couple of KojiPro podcasts it was confirmed they were not doing any remakes.Guled said:I also put my bets on a MG2 remake
