MGS4: 10 years of MGS video

2008-05-01 20:00:11 by BlimBlim

Konami released yet another strange video of Metal Gear Solid 4, this one celebrating the 10th year of the first MGS release by showing a snowy level in the game after showing the PS1 and Gamecube games and even the SSBM level. So is Kojima just toying with us, or will we get to play this level?

Well didn't they say that they had nearly filled the entire bluray disc? Maybe it's because we're also getting a MGS 1 remake or maybe I'm just dreaming out loud.

i guess i wasn't the only one, forums everywhere are going crazy over trying to figure out just what "Replaying MSG" means..

No i just couldn't understand his use of english.

Not trying to force my opinion on anyone, but how about if your guna post you actually have something of relavence to say about the game, instead of attacking a "poor confused troll"
its funny you clown his "english" when you seem to have a hard time with it yourself.

MGS is, and probably will always be the best MGS, getting to revisit shadow moses would be stella. but i think thats all it will be, revisiting old areas from the first game. i cant imagine hideo has another remake planned. but i remain optimistic.

I believe it is just a revisit; the Rex vs. Ray fight takes place at Shadow Moses after all (though Snake did one crappy job destroying it in MGS1 if Rex is still functional or repairable by Otacon).

Hell f'ing yes!

That's all anyone needs to say.
Or at least that's all I need to say.

I would love it if Kojima makes Metal Gear Solid 1 remake with MGS4 engine, it would be so bad ass, instant buy for me, easily.

Quoted from the Official Playstation Magazine:

...as characters talk and reference other stars of this universe, you may see an X or L1 button icon quickly flash on the screen. Hit the right button while it's highlighted and you'll be treated to a very brief context flashback. Basically, the system uses images and moments from the past Metal Gear games to help visually rekindle your own memories of the who, what, where, and why.

I hope that clears up the confusion and hope.

Yea i figured that much.
yeah haah terrible use of English...and yes I am an a native speaker, just started writing something and didnt bother changing the structure. To be honest I dont really make much effort writing on forums

As to this surpassing the first game....well, the premise is far more ambitious, the game is said to be the biggest yet, the game is more open and offers more possibilities, the bosses look to offer even more interesting gameplay possibilities, there is more variety in environments, graphics and art are more refined than ever, online mode seems decent... its just the most ambitious entry into the series. I havent anticipated any previous installment as much as this one...

if you notice, that is shadow mosses..

but the thing is, it is abandoned and all snowed in..noone is monitoring the area.

what this means is, snake will be revisiting shadow mosses, makes sense? Didn't they mention snake would go mono e mono against the new metal gear with the old metal gear?

and where was the old metal gear? shadow mosses! hello! with otacon on the team, snake needs to get the old metal gear and repair it..

so yeah, and with kojima teasing players, player might assume it is re-release of mgs1 with mgs4 graphics, but the truth is just as he said..snake is reVIsiting!

Hope that clears it up..kojima has always been great at creating hype

Abit confusing...
Does this mean Snake will revist the place where it all began?
Is young Snake an alternate character unlocked upon completition of the game?
Will we be treated to such flashbacks throughout the game where we actually take control of Snake?
Did they mock this up just to tease MGS fans? ^_^

If they are to revisit certain areas, make it from the old metal gear games, you know the ones before MGS1 hit the playstation. That is when Snake battled big boss, met grey fox..fought him in the battle field..

Those are memories i would like to play as, you know? just some levels..cause mgs2 and mgs1, they are in great graphics, but metal gear and metal gear 2, was all 2d and most gamers like me haven't played those, only read things through or known about events through mgs1, mgs2, and mgs3

Plus, my dream game would be to have a mgs game based on the life of grey fox!! or an anime based on the mgs universe! :P

that to me doesnt sound like they're interactive tho. MGS2 had flashbacks of MGS1 (crappy psone graphics and all) but they where never interactive. and this cant be a flashback, it makes no sense in the context of the game. for one there is no-one around. its empty, also, snake is wearing his octocamo suit. that just doesnt work in the context of a flashback. so while i think flashbacks are in the game. i dont think this trailer shows one. i think this is just gameplay when you go back to shadow moses (and from previous trailers, apparently fight ray while controlling rex)

but then the question remains, why end the trailer with

"is it possible to REplay MGS!?"

confusing

The problem we have here with the trailer and ofcourse the big question would be why would Snake be MGS2-young at that moment? Why dream about a moment in your life that was around MGS2 while visiting a place that's in MGS1?

Hideo is insanely funny.
Although MGO hasn't impressed me the actual game will, I'm sure.

....while wearing a suit thats in MGS4...lol

i think the young snake "face" thats been seen in a previous trailer is just a mask you can wear as old snake (just like equiping the octocamo mask). MGS3 had a raiden mask i believe. so it wouldnt surprise me.

its always been the single player game...MGO is just an added bonus, nothing else.

I mean, i never thought of the online aspect when i heard MGS4 was going to be released. I'm sure fans will agree.

Adam Sessler shut up you annoying voiced midget bastard.

That said, it was a cool video. With video quality like that its all I can say.

GT has uploaded a much higher resolution of the revived trailer

I think it's kinda like MGS playable remake(on MGS4 engine) after you beat MGS4...

I haven't seen THIS MUCH atmosphere in a snow-blizzard game than what Kojima has shown here. Man, even lost-planet that was entirely snow-focused couldn't produce such effects on camera. The shadow-mosses remake environment is just awesome.

Yes, you will be able to play that stage but in old-Snake's dream. Its a great Kojima thing that he gives the player a complete freedom of control even if they're memories and the like.

Two entirely different and stunning environments have been shown... Middle-Eastern & Shadow-Moses... I'm really thrilled to anticipate an entirely diffent new revelation !!!
