VGAs 2012: The Phantom Pain is Kojima's Phantom

The first unknown game of the evening was a very mysterious game with a man waking out of a coma in an English hospital held by either eastern European or Russian soldiers. In the background of the trailer, people were levitating and burning alive giving the thought that this game has to deal with some kind of paranormal plot. From the brand new Moby Dick Studio as their debut title, The Phantom Pain looks interesting but I wanted to know what it was really about so I guess their video editors did a good job.

Everything about that trailer was metal gear solid or more specifically snake. Look at his hair, the headband, his facial hair, even the way he was running.

MxRBrobaFett4154d ago

By headband I meant his bandage sorry

I bet googling "The Phantom Pain" gives lots of hits about Star Wars: Episode 1

Jamzluminati4154d ago

I didn't connect the characters but with the way things were going on in the video the first person I thought of was Hideo

Its sad that people are hoping that its MGS related and not a brand new IP...are you people not sick of playing the same character universe over and over?

Also another thing that will be sad is that MGS fans will downplay this game when its confirmed its not MGS related and its multiplat just like they did with MG Raising.

MGS is a good franchise but let Kojima work on something new...they guy has ideas that he ca implement into MGS because it already had a story and history.

Feralkitsune4154d ago

And that's where you then member that this is likely Kojima, so everything you once believe will eventually be proven completely wrong. He is a master of the mind rape technique.

What does the voice over say really fast at the end of the trailer?

CHAMPANERIA4154d ago

V has to come or V has to happen sorry don't remember got it from a forum just now. Meaning MGS V has to happen. Kojima is making 2 meta gear solid games with FOX engine this and ground zeros or just 1 game and he lied trolling us fans.

Soldierone4154d ago

Awesome thanks! Every video I found had that part cut out, was beginning to think I didn't really hear anything lol

WeskerChildReborned4154d ago

I'm pretty sure it's MGS related.

SAE4154d ago

This is defiantly a next generation game because of the characters graphics , look at the hair o.o , GZ looks amazing , this looks even better , these two games will be masterpieces :P

m234154d ago

It really doesn't scream next-gen to me. Looks current, but then again maybe the earlier games won't blow us away like this gen did at the beginning.

SAE4154d ago (Edited 4154d ago )

The video isn't in HD so it doesn't show the real graphics , next generation may not have big improvements in graphics but it will have better performance , this may play 60fps with that graphics, and it could be more like open world just like ground zero :) , it's possible , it's easy to do it if it works on a strong console , it doesn't need big talent to have that , just look at cod lol..

gameplay evolve would be more reasonable and impressive then graphics this time :P

Now we'll have to see how much the Master Collection will add to those numbers.

Number1TailzFan173d ago

Too bad it was a lazy release. They could've updated the visuals and everything. Missed opportunity.

Stanjara173d ago

...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.

Minute Man 721173d ago (Edited 173d ago )

Are they counting every game?

Edit: they did

Nyxus173d ago

Yes, these are total lifetime sales of the entire series.

ApocalypseShadow173d ago

.... mostly with the help of PlayStation.

Yea I don’t get why they’re allowing old reviews to be posted here. Someone did one on Soul Reaver and I got so excited thinking there was some stealth release of an HD Remaster, but no… it’s just someone who had a slow day posted an old review…

Cacabunga189d ago

I liked the game but for me it felt somehow like a military simulator rather than a proper MGS.. i got bored of that

micdagoat19189d ago

I do wish they would remaster all the soul reavers

micdagoat19189d ago

it was done this morning though

goldwyncq189d ago

The author was in a coma for 9 years and didn't get to play the game when it released.

Chocoburger189d ago

This review arrived just in time for launch. Perfect timing!

RupeeHoarder189d ago

Amazing how bad this game looks already. We keep acting like this gen doesn't feel like an update but I think we're starting to see it.

YourMommySpoils189d ago

Looks better than Starfield, Cyberpunk and most recent games out. Still fine.

RupeeHoarder189d ago

It most certainly does not lol.

andy85189d ago

Have you player Cyberpunk since the first day? It's absolutely stunning now

1nsomniac189d ago

One of the worst games ever made. Absolute overhyped trash!

Snowb420189d ago

The gameplay was great. It was the tacked on open world and repetitive missions that messed the game up.

Shane Kim189d ago

The game started really strong in that hospital, but after a couple of hours I wondered if it was even an mgs game I was playing.

KyRo188d ago

The hospital section was the only bit that felt like a MGS game.

MGS4 was the ending for me. I totally ignore the fact 5 exists. It didn't need to exist tbh
