Okay, this looks interesting. First of all Konami were discussing how they had no plans to release MGS4 on the 360, but with this, it looks quite darn possible. The symbol at the end is exactly the same as the 360 power button. Sure, that's not enough to say it is going to be for the 360, but the fact that the Xbox's official colour, green, is the dominant colour on there it seems pretty certain.
The tagline 'A Next Metal Gear Is...' makes me conclude that this is probably going to be the next incarnation of MGS4 (in the vein of Substance), which would be interesting.

In terms of disk space to use it, don't forget you can install disks to hard-drives on the 360 now... so you could get an install disk or two and a play disk, maybe.

Anyone else got thoughts on what this might be? And how would you feel on it coming to the Xbox (if that is what is happening)?

I really don't think they could bring a game like MGS4 to the 360. Didn't they have to use a dual-layered blu-ray disk?
well maybe with multiple discs, but it'd be quite a bit of them cuz it'd take over 5 DLDVDs

Maybe there's one in the works that is tailor made for the 360 or they are just trying to say that it's "on" because that symbol is on just about every piece of computer hardware with a power button.

if they took out all the movies from MGS4, and made the graphics like PS2 MGS, they'd have no problem porting it. I mean, instead of a movie, just have a codec that sort of explains how it happened briefly. Also, add a skateboarding part because Xboxers must like that stuff.

just looked at that site. Why would they say "A next metal gear" not "mgs4"? This could easily just be about THE next metal gear game, not a rehash. There was speculation of this anyway; maybe they're tired with Sony? Maybe they're the next Ace Combat traderbastardwhore. (uhm... leaking resentment, Dudesoft. Hit the post button!)

Fortunately, my guess is that it will be a crappy spinoff. The MGS team just likes to fuck with people.

what a shitty generator

Edit: All these anagram generators do stupid stuff like count "aa" as a word and basically the first 9000 results are 'aa' + other things wtf

Edit: It's kind of racist actually like Konami must have some decent translators but it has a feel like 'ooo you don't know if it's secret code or if we just don't know English very good' I'm not just saying that the whole 'A Next' thing reminds me of that Resident Evil 4 minigame that was called "The ANOTHER Order"

Quote from: Shacknews.com

The final green image in the sequence appears to resemble the Xbox 360 power button icon at first glance--though the icon itself is a standard power-related image used across many platforms. The "i" could also be a reference to either the iPhone, the Wii, or the upcoming Nintendo DSi.

The teased game could turn out to be anything from a new title in the Metal Gear Solid Ac!d series to an Xbox 360 version of Metal Gear Solid 4.

Well I for one am looking forward to Metagalaxies Ten, so you just keep your skepticism to yourself buster.

I wish there really was a game called Metagalaxies Ten

I really don't think they could bring a game like MGS4 to the 360. Didn't they have to use a dual-layered blu-ray disk?
well maybe with multiple discs, but it'd be quite a bit of them cuz it'd take over 5 DLDVDs

Maybe there's one in the works that is tailor made for the 360 or they are just trying to say that it's "on" because that symbol is on just about every piece of computer hardware with a power button.

we had a discussion about this when the game came out because I could not believe the game used that much, because it looked good but NOT THAT GREAT. I mean it doesn't look much better than say Dead Space or GoW2. it turns out because MGS4 is his opus he didn't compress ANYTHING. like if radiohead released one last album but you can only buy it on vinyl and .flac format. so no, it didn't USE that space, he just refused to save them in decent formats or whatever.

it turns out because MGS4 is his opus he didn't compress ANYTHING. like if radiohead released one last album but you can only buy it on vinyl and .flac format. so no, it didn't USE that space, he just refused to save them in decent formats or whatever.

I figured as much.
I'm pretty sure sony encouraged it too cuz there's a line in the game where its like "time to change discs... o wait ur using blu ray welcome 2 the next generation faggot, game on."

The symbol at the end is exactly the same as the 360 power button.

::looks down at the power symbol on his Sony laptop, it looks exactly the same as the symbol in the flash video::

we had a discussion about this when the game came out because I could not believe the game used that much, because it looked good but NOT THAT GREAT. I mean it doesn't look much better than say Dead Space or GoW2. it turns out because MGS4 is his opus he didn't compress ANYTHING. like if radiohead released one last album but you can only buy it on vinyl and .flac format. so no, it didn't USE that space, he just refused to save them in decent formats or whatever.

I don't want to be RAGING NERD, but the reason they didn't compress anything is because they didn't want to spend the CPU cycles decompressing it later. And if you have all that space to use, why bother to compress? Not really a GOOD reason, but it makes more sense than just saying that Kojima, he is batshit insane (or is he?).

I dont buy it considering it had to install shit to the harddrive during every play, if it's a massive time saver I sure didn't notice! also hideos a shit head.

Like I said, I don't think he has a good reason either, I just remember that being said when he was talking about needed a dual-layer blu-ray for the game. I agree that it was a major pain in the ass to install everything to hard-drive ALL THE TIME. The worst part was if you had a friend playing it on your system, and they were on a different act, each time you play after they do, you have to reinstall the data for your act and vice versa. That was a pretty bullshit design.

OH NO A 2 MINUTE INSTALL AT THE END OF A 3 HOUR CHAPTER.

By the way, I just put Crysis on my PC and I spent the entire installation time vomiting into a bucket in disgust.

you're fucking kidding dude. he said hideo's excuse was it saves loading times, but before every chapter (three hours mostly of cinematics), of which there are five, it has to reinstall. in addition, as mr. casil pointed out, it's EVERY TIME YOU CHANGE ACTS. that means if you're playing act 1, a friend plays to act 2, you have to reinstall both acts 1 and 2. I'm not complaining about the time, I'm saying it's not a time saver. Dead Space fyi had a less than minute loading time between about 12 chapters, each of which was about an hour if you were a new player. most people here can bring examples. two minutes isn't inexcusable but it's certainly not saving loading times to do it all at once.
