Metal Gear Solid 5

i think Bauer is the new snake and we need to deal with it, but fuck he sounds JUST like Jack, even the heavy breathing

Another longer trailer (lots of shared footage though)! I actually didn't hear Snake saying something at the end the first time. It actually sounds somewhat decent but I want even more raspy voice! MOAR! Although it could be fine since it's Naked Snake he doesn't need to sound exactly the same as Solid, but rather damn close

jizzing

OK I've just returned from sitting in a cold bath for a while to get over that trailer. Holy fuck, I so can't wait for this. I kind of feel like I've missed out on some story though, am I meant to know who skull face is? And when did Big Boss come across Metal Gear, presumably that happened between MGS3 and this?

I have to admit that I'm warming to Kiefer. Now that I've heard him speak more it's clear that he's intentionally making his voice a bit gruffer and he's using a slightly adjusted accent to sound a bit more like classic Snake.

With all the women in games discussion right now, I wonder why the depict the Sniper always and only in Bikini-Tops...

Also - children as soldiers seems to be a very touchy subject - I wonder how they tackle this. Will they be active opponents or just stand-ins in cutscenes or just some flackback you get?

I understand why some were sad about them cutting Hayter initially, but Sutherland is clearly much better at this, it doesn't sound like a little kid trying to sound tough anymore, like it did with Hayter.

Hayter was great and that added a lot of charm to the cookiness to the old games, but this is really good decision IMO.

Kojima said some time ago that he's attempting to tackle some particularly sensitive themes in this one, he definitely mentioned race as one of them. MGS has always been about trying to teach about real-world issues but it definitely looks like he's planning on making this one shock. Presumably there'll be parallels to the bombs that are put in kids' sewed-up bodies in Afghanistan, etc.

I've played about 45 minutes of almost ever MGS game since MGS2. I just cannot get into them, as much as I want to. Played about half of Patriots...and bailed.

But this...the more I watch of it...could this be the first MGS game I go all the way with? Wait...what did I just type? Anyway, what Thrik said.

Metal Gear Solid 5: Time to Jizz

Holy shit, what's this?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2370518/?

David Hayter is credited as voicing David, which was Solid Snake's real name as revealed in MGS1 — and Big Boss, while Keifer continues to be credited as Punished Snake. WHAT IS GOING ON?!

Kojima.

Can't really tell anything from the gameplay stuff, the one word I can come up with is underwhelming.

Yeah I don't get the big deal with MGS.. That just looks look any old stealth game.

Edit - Can somebody please tell me why they enjoy the MGS series so much? I genuinely would like to know, because it gets such high praise. I have only really played the first game and it was good.. I would like to try the others.

I only skimmed through a few moments of it but it just looked like the footage they first showed to me. Fairly typical MGS gameplay, probably some kind of tutorial section. I spotted Snake carrying a dead/unconscious dude really quickly though, which is better than the slow-ass shit in the previous games.

Liam MGS4 was fucking incredible. Probably the best stealth action game made at the time. It was the first one where they really nailed the action part and massively improved the stealth. The only down side was the story was another nonsensical mess.
