MGS and MGS2 are two of the best games I have ever played. There aren't many games that have been as much fun as them. I can't wait for MGS3 to come out next year.

[InsaneZane]

I am a great MG fan!
All I gotta say is... Gamecube has to thank Metal Gear because the MGS1 re-make, 'Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes' exclusivly for NGC,cuz it's gonna sell a LOT of consoles because of them.
I mean, thats the ONLY reason I am getting a GameCube this year...is because of the MGS1 re-make.

And 'Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater'... I dont even know where to begin.. all I can say is WOW!

I have read a lot of new information on that new release, and like I said...I dont know where to begin.

And in case nobody's heard... there is a rumored 'Metal Gear Solid Trilogy Online' to be released after MGS3!

As for the topic at hand, Metal Gear Solid brought me into the series... that was when I got the original 2 and followed the story the whole way through... and I love it..
but honestly to say, I did expect a LOT more from MGS2... I was kinda disappointed, but only because you took over as Raiden instead of Snake, the story was fine.

[liltimmyw]

Yes, there is a Metal Gear Online game coming out. Although I don't know how it will be done.

[Peanut]

I'm sure MGS won't sell more systems than either Zelda or Metroid but it should sell a few. I personally enjoyed the first bit of MGS2 before the story went topsy-turvy and the super long cut scenes ruined the game. I'll probably try out the re-make. I'm not overly excited for it, but it might be worth a try.

[InsaneZane]

I'm sure MGS won't sell more systems than either Zelda or Metroid but it should sell a few.

Actually, dude.... Zelda and Metroid fans have ALWAYS been true to NINTENDO.... Those people would've gotten the GameCube ANYWAY.

As for Metal Gear fans.. Yes, the series DID originate on the NES, but METAL GEAR SOLID was a PSX exclusive, and a LOT of MGS fans Don't give a flappy-crap about NGC, until the MGS1 remake comes out.... THEREFORE....... The title WILL sell more consoles than you think.

[liltimmyw]

Blah...I'll buy both Twin Snakes and Snake Eater :P

I heard that mgs3 does have a little bit of online play but its like they provide new camoflague for you and I belive new weopons I saw it on interview with hideo so must be true?

I don't know...I've heard the same thing...And I've also heard that MGS3 takes place in the 1960s o_0

I think thats true to but its still way to early to tell if any of this stuff on the net is close to true :x ah well just have to wait I guess...............

Yeah....I still don't know how it will take place in the 1960s. Too much of MGS revolves around technology and it wasn't as big as it is now in the 60s.

[liltimmyw]

And I just found out that MGS takes place in the year 2005 and the Tanker inncodent in MGS2 takes place 4 years after Shadow Moses, which is the inncodents of the first one.

[Raven]

I heard thats it migt not be snake you play as but as big boss because big boss was the best around in he 60's or its a new clone

[liltimmyw]

I heard thats it migt not be snake you play as but as big boss because big boss was the best around in he 60's or its a new clone

Just look at the screens. You can tell that it's Snake. I thought of the clone theory. Hmmm I don't know. We'll just have to find out.

actully in a panthlet at e3 when mgs3 was showing if you take some of the words you can spell out big boss and in a interview hideo said he did a close up of the facee to show one eye missing im not saying its not snake but it could be big boss but like i said to early to tell

[InsaneZane]

Online play as far as MGS3... costumes, camo, weapons, items etc. You'll be able to download stuff, but I don't think there will be actual MGS Online GAMEPLAY.

The original title of MGS3 was going to be MGS3: The Patriots... it is a sequel to MGS2 or they wouldn't have the 3
As far as Big Boss... I saw a pic of someone that looked like snake w/ one eye also... it's probably just a playable pre-story that will explain a few things as far as The Patriots being a part of the main plot.
But, being able to play as BIg Boss is actually a GOOD thing, unlike playing as Raiden, at least Big Boss LOOKS like Snake, considering Snake IS a Copy of the legendary soldier, BIG BOSS....

If I'm confusing anybody... just play MGS1 and listen to the story

[Peanut]

I know it will sell alot, but what I'm trying to say is the number of GC's sold when Metroid and Zelda came out was amazing. ALOT of people waited on the system until those games came out. That's why I think MGS won't sell as many cubes as those two games did.

I was thinking the same thing about the title and as to why they would make it a sequel if it is to be a prequel. And what you've said has made perfect sense to me. I worship the depth of the MGS story. :wink:

[Raven]

bad news for those that love the radar in the game its being taken out
crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is going to be one of the hardest mg games ever!!!!!!!!!!!

Heh. I don't mind. I love a challenge. And it makes sense as to why it's not there. Considering it takes place in 1960 something and not 2009.

Wouldn't it be great if people would explain where these "rumors" of the online metal gear game came from? :evilgrin:

As long as David Hayter is still alive, they better pay him whatever it takes to keep doing his voicework as Snake, in whatever incarnation they have Snake in. I would even vote for him to play as Snake in a live-action movie if they ever decided to do one. Wow, what a thought. Metal Gear: The Motion Picture. Starring David Hayter in the lead and directed by The Wachowski Brothers.

I forgot to mention that I hated the pre-PS Metal Gear games.

Just got done reading an interview with David Hayter at operationmgs. cool site. Anyway, I have hopes that he finds the time for the voicework. It's hard to think of anyone else being Snake...

I know. I think he will probably do it, though.

Actually.. I would vote for Hugh Jackman-Wolverine(X-Men)
Put a headband on him and a cig in his mouth you'll see what I mean.
Nobody could play a better live-action Snake..not even David Hayter himself.

He looks just like Snake! Not to mention Hayter was working on X-Men when they made the MGS2 model.. they probably made it look like Hugh ON PURPOSE.

Yeah...He would play a good snake. It's just that I don't see someone playing Snake without his voice. It just dosen't work. David Hayter did say that he would play Snake if they were to make an animated movie. I wouldn't mind to see a MGS CGI movie.

Well, of course..
but Live-Action movies change characters voices all the time.
Hugh Jackman's is acceptable as Snake.

Aarrrghhhh! Stop with the endless quotes!!!!! :x

[Raven]

jesus you guys stop with the quotes or cut them down holy crap!
thought i was missing somthing imporant

[liltimmyw]

But they're pretty!
:cry:

[Raven]

:lol: i guess

[InsaneZane]

yeah dont you just love it how they get smaller and smaller.

[Raven]

ah zane yur talking about the same thing as us? :o

[Raven]

heres some stuff from operation mgs

where?
There has been no official statement about where the actual game takes place, except for that 2/3 will take place in jungles and caves, and 1/3 in a base or so. The very first Snake Eater teaser was a map, showing a part of Russia, with a snake infront of it. This can again be linked to the America/Soviet flag image mentioned above. Though to our knowledge, there are no Russian jungles. It seems the whole game is pretty much shrouded in mystery for now.

when?
The game will take place in the 1960s, which is about 40 years before the tanker incident in "Sons of Liberty", the years of the Cuban Revolution, the Vietnam and Cold War. The latter may actually play a bigger part than you may expect, since one of the images shown in the E3 trailer of the game, shows the main character, with on one side the American flag, and on the other the Soviet (communistic) flag. Inevitable that this all brings us to our next question.

who?
Seeing that the game takes place in the 60s, it's quite unlikely that our main character will be the hero of Shadow Moses, Solid Snake, for he wasn't even "born" back then. Though when asked who the main character really is, Mr. Hideo Kojima refuses to answer directly. In a recent IGN interview, Mr. Kojima replied that he'll leave it up to our imagination. Some may claim it really is Solid Snake, despite the anachronism, while others believe the main character will be Big Boss, the legendary soldier and "father" of the cloned Snakes. Though there is no official confirmation of either of these speculations so far, so we'll have to wait and see

wow!
It is now official that the game will not only use a completely new and improved engine, which they needed to develop te jungle areas, but also that it will support Dolby 5.1 surround sound. This should be extremely useful, since there will be no soliton radar system for you to use, so you'll need to rely on sound a lot. No game so far has ever supported Dolby 5.1, it's quite the technical "detail" to look forward to.

snake?
According to the Metal Gear Solid mission book (MGS1 strategy guide) it says that Big Boss was in a war in Congo, Africa in 1962 through 1968, but, was he in a jungle? We’ll have to wait on that. Solid Snake’s chances of being in MGS3 are close to none. Snake and the rest of Big Boss’s clones were born (estimated) in 1972. 10 years before the game takes place. Or could Kojima plan to have someone else completely different? Who knows? Only Kojima and his team know the truth.

stealth&survival
A major reason they couldn’t use MGS2’s game engine because everything in MGS2 was at a 90 degree angle and almost everything was indoor and not on land. In MGS3, there are tree’s, hills, and everything that isn’t at a 90 degree angle. The gaming engine is going to be excellent. When you make it inside the base, it will be much like MGS2 with 90 degree angles again. The techniques Snake uses are very….stealthy. Snake will have better techniques in MGS3. Another really cool technique, Snake will have a camouflage called the “bloody camouflage” where Snake can lay next to a dead body of the enemy and fool another enemy that he is really dead. That, and more are to be included in MGS3

AI's
The AI will be much improved. In previous MGS games, each solider would work by himself individually when a intruder is not found, now, the soldiers work in team of 4. In the jungle, it is nearly impossible to call on the radio for help so the 4 soldiers work as a team. Then, when you make it inside a base, it will be much like MGS2, in the sense that the guards will be able to quickly call for back-up again.
