I'm a little put off that Kojima is not working on zone of the enders 3 but hey, an open world metal gear…i'll take it thank you.

MGS5 E3 demo was pretty weak but i still have high expectations for the game. I can't wait for GTAV right now.

I don't think it will ever be able to beat MGS3, MGS just isn't MGS any more. After MGS4 my hopes are quite low.

MGS4 just wasn't a real MGS, even though I loved the gameplay.

HUGE MGS fan - never really played MGS4… Nowt will beat Snake Eater and Solid Snake indeed...

But I still hope they'll pull it off...

shoque

Yeah one of the best franchises ever, the whole myth around it is almost incomparable to other games.

Dat ladder:

Damn gotta replay the whole series….

Cheap plug: Anybody interested in a WiiU (Europe)?

wolfblood

Snake eater has the greatest boss battles in the history of gaming, I think that's what made me a little disappointed about 4, a little mind you, still a great game

wolfblood

Oh yeah the ladder, love kojimas wierd sideways humor.

Seul

Hahah yeah that effin ladder!.. Best inside joke was having to play the first base scene of Solid Snake though in MGS4…

Seul

Just played the Far Cry Blood Dragon demo… Might have to do a little purchasing later today...

I really got goose bumps when I played that part, it felt so nostalgic thinking back to when I played MGS on PSX/PC when I was like 10 or something.

Speaking of MGS3 boss fights:

After finishing my IH work today I might dive back into the MGS series.

Shoque, what made you disappointed on mgs4? Is it because there wasn't too much stealth involved? MGS4 was the first one I played and I loved it so much, cried at the end….I've been meaning to play them in order but I haven't gotten around to it

Possibly the best franchise in gaming history.

It was just once big cut-scene and the story was really absurd. I still don't grasp the story of the MGS universe in its entirety to be honest, but the plot didn't make sense regarding the first 3 parts. Also, the 4th part didn't have this whole myth-feeling to it imho, it's hard to describe. It's different if you start with 4, I played them in order.

The game itself was great (minus the neverending cutscenes), but it felt like a MGS spin-off.

The trailer regarding Ground Zero was superb imho, especially the music, really feels like it would somehow go back to the roots, but I am not sure the actual game will feel like the old ones:
