Do you remember at E3 a couple of years ago when they first showed us Clips from Rising? Then they talked about ideas and such for the game. That was the game i wanted. It was Pure Raiden but still it would keep what made the Metal Gear Series what it is only much faster. Stealth was still there, the game was not a Hack and Slash as it is now. That was the game i wanted, that was the game so many of us wanted. The new one is just pure Hack and slash.

Solid Snake is going to be in this game too. Also Snake was in Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (Kojima desperately needs to remake these two games because everyone seems to have forgotten them), MGS1, MGS2, MGS4. Big Boss was MGS3, Portable Ops, Peace Walker, and now this game. So technically Solid Snake still has more games than Big Boss.

[Youngbling]

Yes I knew all that, thank you. (I just wasn't specific enough) and what i was trying to state was that Solid Snake's story has not ended. There is still the huge gap between MGS2 & MGS4 so yeh not to mention we still got the remake possibilities.

[KJMTurbo]

I really want to see more of Grey Fox, he's always been one of my favourite characters and one of the least utilised. (NES Games don't count for story, they were almost unplayable in comparison to MGS1)

[Youngbling]

Kojima was the director of HD collection anyways yeh you are right he did try to quit but fans persuaded him to stay which i dont blame them. He's a genius when it comes to gaming especially MGS series. Since he hasn't quit; he'll keep making MGS games well until he actually does give up or idk dies. Yeh well anyways I still think Solid Snake's story can be created if he focuses on it if not the gap between 2 & 4 then remakes would be nice and fans are seriously hoping for that too.

[ES]

This isn't about graphics or multiplayer, this is about a game series with one of the most dynamic and amazing stories aswell as amazing gameplay. The point is: This COULD actually be the foundation of Outer Heaven by Big Boss. Fuck. Yeah.

[LordNazgul]

Is this game really gonna be released on this generation of consoles? The graphics just look amazing like I'm looking at a game releasing on the next gen platform. I know Hideo Kojima stated that its coming to consoles from this gen. But I still find it hard to believe. Kojima never ceases to amaze me

[Youngbling]

Well idk about that because if Kojima decides to remake Metal Gear 1 & 2; it would be pretty damn amazing and Snake will be the main character. It would be amazing to see FOX engine being used for those environments such as Outer Haven for MG1 & Zanzibar Land. Also we got MG Ghost Babel too if Kojima decides to create that. See? Snake's story is not exactly over also I remember Kojima stating (in a game magazine) that we're not exactly done with Snake so idk yeh.

[Youngbling]

Ok yeh you are right; HD collection is an update not a remake (sorry for getting that mixed up). Anyways maybe Kojima wasn't pleased but honestly I knew a lot of people who had fun although original was better; it had new feature in it which made it better also impressed by graphics it delivered and additional stuff added. Rising is still being created and that game seems like gonna be really

[Youngbling]

Now ofc GC remake wasn't anything compared to the original one which will always be the best but it had new features that caught my eye and made it fun. As for your question; I would want an originality created by Kojima himself & other devs in Konami working on MG 1 & 2 remakes. Rising seems to be amazing just a spin off while Kojima is working on this. MG 1 & 2 were amazing, don't get me wrong but it's nice to see what today's technology can re-create the scenario MG 1 & 2 showed even better.

[RosesAreBlack]

Interesting, many people are assuming this game takes place after PW, im really looking foward to this Ground Zero

[AirForce]

oh shit i love it Metal gear solid is the best game ever. I use to also play it online before it was shut down june 12th of 2012. God i love metal gear solid

[Youngbling]

Yeh I do still Raiden is actually Hack n Slash; in MGS4 the only thing you see him is slashing through any object in the way not going stealth like Snake does and who knows maybe there are stealth options in Rising; we just have to wait & see. Anyways even though the idea came from MGS 2 & 3; it was still really good that TS implemented that. Even though the remake really had nothing to do with the original MGS; it's not like it ruined the series. Remake was still fun and a different perspective

[wwefollower]

I would love for there to be a game in between MGS2 & MGS4. Maybe make it for the Vita or something. In this game Solid Snake should be in the Teen - Young Adult stage in his life, so he should be with the Green Berets. Also Kojima wanted to sorta "retire" Snake after MGS4 so its no wonder we haven't played as him since. But personally, I'm expecting some kind of character switch between Snake and Big Boss at some point in this game. Also a cameo appearance of Liquid and Solidus would be epic.

[ThatOldSchoolMagic]

remember how in MGS4 when you would come back to shadow Mosses as a site of coming back to go get Metal gear, its like i would love to see the game with the 3rd person view of Metal gear Solid 4 and MGS3 Subsistance. if you haven't seen it look for it on youtube. that part ws so memoriable like seriously

[meghterb]

After 4 years of waiting, MGS is back on consoles again. And it's Big Boss again. Can't describe how excited I am.

[TheHengKong]

PM I still don't get the timeline.
What do they mean by Mentor
I want to play the series but idk how to play stealth games the right way

[Youngbling]

Well yeh the new tomb raider too which is a reboot yes but what I meant is Tomb Raider Anniversary which was a damn good remake. Remakes make you play the game with a new feel with more updated features to it but in the same game that you played years back. Good remake examples are Counter Strike Source, Doom 3, Halo CE Anniversary, Hitman Contracts. You might disagree with remakes but there are a lot of people out there who love games that are remade and enjoy it never-the less.

[AddamHusayin]

I read this while listening to the MGS4 Love Theme.

[Youngbling]

My 2 examples are some that are given; main point im trying to state is; most games devs focus on SP than MP even if MP isn't a huge deal; they still pull it off. Each gaming company is huge ex. Ubi, Crytek, Konami etc. and they have each team working on both sides so it can be enjoyable for players who like MP or SP or both. Although yes, some devs do screw up with games like MW or BF but most devs do create an SP a masterpiece. You might think it's wrong but according to thousand others, nope.
