GDC 09: 'Metal Gear Solid'... Raiden?
Posted by Jeffrey Kanjanapangka - Thursday, March 26, 2009 3:03 PM

If you've followed the Live Blog of the Kojima's GDC 2009 Keynote, you might be asking yourself, "What's the deal with the last startling images of the presentation?".

After a rousing speech taking audience members through the entire Metal Gear franchise the last image we were left with was a bold still which reads "Mission: The Next MGS". Furthermore, planted in the top right corner of the still is a clear impression of the cyber ninja Raiden (close-up after the cut):

Which leads us to Kojima's interview earlier this week with IGN, where he stated that work was currently underway on a new game and that "An official game announcement will be made at E3." Could the images above be the smoking gun for the next Metal Gear Solid to be a Raiden-specific outing? Given that of course, there was no other mention of specifics or hints given throughout the keynote, for we'll have to wait and see not when, but what will be announced at this year's E3.

There's definite writing on the wall, but what's your theory on the official announcement at E3?

As long as they keep the crotch grabbing, annoying rose calls to a minimum I'm there... well I would still be there even with all that...

no more Raiden, he had his moment in MGS4, I'd rather see the snake clone in Ac!d 2, or even Snake fiding a cure... just no Raiden....

I see Raiden still makes people insecure.

I actually love the MGS4 Raiden. They can make more games with him. I'm good with that.

MGS2 Raiden...Not so much.

Sums up MGS2/Raiden for me.

Johnny would be a nice candidate for the next MGS game, he even looks like snake when you get past the whole never-ending diarrhea

Cyborg-Raiden is awesome, but I couldn't see using him for a Metal Gear game. At least, not without it being an entirely different gameplay experience.

Not really It's just that MGS2 was set out to make Raiden the biggest sissy ever... Ando besides the Presidential salute and the annoying rose calls... Except the optional Colonel call that you can make on one of the bathrooms on the Big Shell... All rose calls were annoying... Rose IS annoying... I hated calling her in MGS4... not even the weird six axis boobs compensated the annoyingness that is rose... she was tones down on the annoying factor, but she irked me like no other character has done... besides Toad and his "Thanks Mario, but the Princess is in another Castle." Or Navi with her "Hello! Hey! Listen!"

Am I reading into this a little too much, or is the fact that they're using the acronym "MGS" a hint to the fact that it'll still be called "Metal Gear Solid" (or at least Metal Gear <something else starting with S>).

yes it say MGS so it'll might be the fith chapter of the solid series.
I'd be cooler to see metal gear and metal gear 2: solid snake have a remake by kojima

it was a big mistake not having kojima on twin snakes

Continuing the series as MGS would be a further kick in the nuts.

As if they didn't completely ruin the end of the solid series already. May as well make the ending of 4 even more meaningless.

I loved MGS4 it wrapped it all up.

but IF Raiden is the hreo in the next game, I wonder how the story will be since he had a happy ending in MGS4, being back with Rose and his Kid... Something similar to the movie Taken?

In the most ridiculous way possible.

not really it all made sense
in a kojima kinda way

You don't get what I'm saying, so I'm not even going to bother.

I don't own an oil company and I'm not planning on selling a kidney, so I don't have a PS3 and thus haven't played MGS4 yet, but I think all the hate Raiden gets is a bit much. It could be an interesting take on the series. I mean, it's a business, they'd be stupid to kill MGS off.

I do agree with everything about how annoying parts of 2 were, but the game was fun to play for me regardless.

Oh, we're back to hyperbolic bitching about the PS3 being expensive? I didn't realize it was still 2006.

For what you're getting, it's actually a much better value than the 360. That is to say, it's much less expensive in the long run for various reasons, such as built in wi-fi and free online, plus you're getting a blu-ray player.
