Next Metal Gear Solid

Now the countdown has expired on the 'Next' site, it has revealed a clear sunny day with a link to a new site:

So far they have confirmed Metal Gear Solid: Rising on the Xbox 360 and there is also a little something about a mysterious mask. Not sure if it has anything to do with MGS but the music sounds very Harry Gregson Williams-esque

Here's a short trailer for the new game:

Also, here's a video of the E3 announcement too. The American is an absolute douche to be honest:

Aweso... Wait? What?! Xbox? Ahw...

He can't even say the franchise's name correctly -.-'

I doubt MGO will come to xbawks though.

Looks like a Ninja Gaiden style game. Lighting Bolt Action seems quite different to Tactical Espionage Action.

And in an interview somewhere. Kojima did say that it would be a totally different 'system' to the one usually used.

Picture of a Konami release schedule. Says Metal Gear Solid is multi format and there is also a new PSP game due out. No mention of PS3 anywhere.

Seems that mask will be something to do with Castlevania too.

If it's genuine, then Im a little disappointed that there wont be a proper sequel.

MGS Rising is going to PS3 as well??

I dont know how genuine that release schedule is but I think it will be on the PS3 too. Kojima is just too much of a an artist to alienate the PS3 by jumping to Xbox. Just doesnt seem his style.

Plus if you watch the E3 conference, that Microsoft guy was possibly one of the smuggest guys in the world. If they had exclusive rights I think he would have had a huge 'Exclusive' banner and been shouting it every 5 seconds.

Instead all he had was 'yeah!'

There's something about this trailer I dont trust. Lightning Bolt Action? Raidens back? All just sounds a bit too sarcastic. Something's going on...

Even the applause at the end was pretty lame.

It won't be Metal Gear without sneaking.. But it says "Sneak in" at the end.

I hate Microsoft so much

Atti says it starts around 7pm.

E3 highlights from Payno:

Uncharted 2 looks totally bad ass. Graphics were the best Ive seen for a while. At one point he looked down on a village with mountain scenery which looked incredibly fine and detailed.

MAG - 256 player online game. Couldnt really figure out how this would work for real. Seemed complicated and very tactical. Difficult enough getting a team of 6 to work properly. so 256 players seems kind of out of reach. Graphics werent great either and it looked very brown.

PSP GO! announced. Has a screen that slides up like a mobile phone. Smaller and lighter than the old PSP, costs 250 Euros. Still just one analogue stick though.

Gran Turismo announced on PSP. 800 cars 35 tracks. Runs at 60 frames per second. Apparently the same size game as a standard Gran Turismo. Trailer looked ok but was on such a small screen so was difficult to tell.

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker on PSP - set 10 years after MGS3. Not a spin off or a side story and is being directed by Kojima and the MGS4 team.
Looks like it is based around Big Boss forming Outer Heaven and features a new kind of Metal Gear robot. However, it seems that Big Boss has been cloned and 4 'Big boss's' were on screen at the same time.
The trailer showed quite a bit of gameplay, graphics were good for the PSP. And at the end there was a countdown that went '1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and e'. Maybe hinting at MGS5?

Loads more PSP games announced including Little Big Planet, Resident Evil and Hannah Montana. Final Fantasy VII to be added to PSN Store.

Rockstar have a new PS3 only game called AGENT. Not much said about it.

Assasins Creed 2. Set during the Italian Renaissance. Graphics were very impressive and Ezio is now the main character. New ways of killing people look awesome.

Final Fantasy XIII trailer looked impressive as always. But then they also showed a short Final Fantasy XIV trailer which is online and also a PS3 exclusive.

A new motion control is announced. It appears to use the Eye Toy as a sensor while you hold a 'wii style' controller. You appear on screen and the control turns in to different things such as a tennis racket, a sword and a gun. Difficult to explain but seems to be much more advanced than what the Wii has to offer. The demo showed him using a shield together with a sword and also a bow and arrow. Dishing out a CQC hold with this controller would be very satisfying I imagine!

The makers of Little Big Planet present a new game called Mod Nation Racers. Which seems to be a LBP style racer.

Now I have to miss the last bit because I have football so you can guarantee they will annouce MGS5 while I am out! Im sure Atti can fill you in.

Nice details Thanks

hmm i still like my idea of Metal Gear Otacon

I dont think anything else was announced after I left.

Here is the trailer for Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker though:
