    Default Kojima Productions site opens

    Experience this.

    Lots of information on Metal Gear Acid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence, Kojima Productions itself, and yes, Metal Gear Solid 4. I could have posted this yesterday, but I figured I'd wait until the site was less congested so you could actually see the trailers without repeatedly restarting them.

    I am happy.

    And for anyone who can't be bothered to read through Hideo's biography:

    Set after MGS2 events, stars Solid Snake, promises a completely new sneaking experience.

    Snake, Otacon, Ocelot and Vamp are easily recognisable in the portraits, I like how Vamp has the bulletwound still in the middle of his forehead. I'm guessing the two women on the left are Meryl and Olga, be interesting to see what part Meryl has come back for (assuming it is her). I have no idea who the women on the far right is, but by far the biggest mystery is the guy with the eyepatch.

    That Big Boss' ghost/zombie? Solidus back somehow? Looks very emaciated, and it seems strange Kojima would make yet another character with one eye. Be interesting to see if they throw in more characters or keep it in the MGS family. Either way, I'm already looking forward to this.

    The characters shown in the MGS4 part of the sites are, from left to right,
    • Vamp.
    • Some new chick.
    • Raiden, with his High Frequency Blade in one hand and a baby--either Olga's or Rose's--in the other.
    • Revolver Ocelot.
    • Solid Snake.
    • Otacon.
    • Big Boss's corpse!
    • Naomi Hunter!
    Oh I'm feelin' it.


    Edit: The more I look at it, the more I agree the new chick could conceivably be Meryl Silverburgh, from her hair and clothing. Her face looks nothing like Meryl, though.

    I want to see more with Zone of the Enders! There's so much potential with that game and the world that's been created around it.

    Meryl has been confirmed, according to Gamespot. I wouldn't have picked up the chick on the far right as Naomi, so I'm not sure about that one. Have to have another look at the sword weilding person though, I thought it was a chick but I see how it could be Raiden. Didn't think about the baby either, be interesting to see what that has to do with the plot.

    Also, Kojima said there would be "no place to hide", or something to that effect, so you have to wonder what he's cooking up.

    The video they showed was funny as hell. The race car sounds and the splinter cell parody were fantasic. If Naomi is back then I want them to get the original voice actor back from MGS1 as I didn't like the voice actor in MGS:TTS.

    From what I have read MGS3 Substinance will have MG 1 and 2 on the disc which makes it an automatic purchase just to be able to play the MSX versions!

    Definitely. Subsistence has so much to offer that I don't think people can rightly complain about it the way they complained about Integral and Substance.

    Jennifer Hale did Naomi's voice in both the original MGS and MGS:TTS. The only difference in her performance was that she didn't use a British accent in TTS. She shows up as "Carren Learning" in the original's credits, but that was just because the original MGS was a non-union project so the cast members who were union members had to use pseudonyms in order to not catch heat. Happens all the time.

    I see...thanks for providing massive knowledge where I had lacked it. To me the voice work in the twin snakes for a few characters just wasn't as good...then again maybe I am just way to use to the old voices.

    It also looks like Solid has a bigger beard on him to give him a more wise mature look....... looking more like the old Big Boss every game

    I hope they port MGS3: Subsistance on the XBox like they did with MGS2. My Dual Shock 2 controller died.

    Do you need a DS2 to play MGS3 or do you just need a PS2 controller with thumbsticks?

    Ah, that's sweet.
    Can't wait for Subsistence.
    I want the original Metal Gears badly.
    Especially Solid Snake.

    BTW, did anyone notice the guy in the MGS 4 section that looks like Vamp from MGS2?

    He's on the far left on the bottom of the screen.
    The itching sensation is a good thing.

    The characters in the MGS4 image were confirmed as being Vamp, Meryl Silverburgh, Raiden, Revolver Ocelot, Solid Snake, Otacon, Big Boss, and Naomi Hunter.

    The reason I wasn't sure Meryl was Meryl because the face just didn't look like hers; to me, it looked more like Olga's face. Then I remembered that Olga was designed to look extremely similar to Meryl.

    So Big Boss is now an evil zombie? Sounds...interesting.

    Ah, thanks for clearing that up.
    Makes sense, you never saw Vamp die.
    Methinks he works for the Patriots.
    But I'll save that for later.
