Kojima Forced to Leak Metal Gear Solid V for VGA Trailer Spot

The case of Moby Dick Studios and The Phantom Pain was an odd one. The trailer for what most of us thought was a fresh IP had the world abuzz during last year’s Video Game Awards, but not exactly for the right reasons.

Well that's interesting. Makes sense though, I doubt they'd want some no name game with a no name studio, with such a confusing trailer, to spotlight the show.

brodychet3947d ago

Yeah, it seemed to be a necessary step to take.

Psn8003947d ago

Loved this game on Ps1 & Ps2 then it went a bit I don't know rubbish .

sarcastoid3948d ago

Does anyone watch the VGA awards? Honest question... I've always thought of it as some lame spike tv attempt to lure the male demographic in by pretending to give a **** about video games.

Need4Game3948d ago

Metal Gear Solid V is a Great Movie with "Gameplay" add-on.

So It is perfect for TV Audiences.

ZBlacktt3948d ago

You must be thinking about the XBox One.

Gameratheart3947d ago

Metal gear is a pretty overrated series.... I picked up metal gear 4, on the cheap, and felt like I was playing a game from 1998. But, it is only overrated by its fans, the games never sell that great, I think solid 4 sold around 3-4 million, not that much for such a big game.... Lame, convoluted story, with 15 year old gameplay... But it was the gameplay that put me off... Just deals so.... Generic, and cheap. Don't hate me for what I said, it is simply one mans opinion of a game, and series. I still love playstation, and can't wait for the ps4, just nothing with the name metal gear on it....

yeahokchief3947d ago

I'm hoping Kojima is trolling us with Sutherland.

90% sure he is after looking at Hayters twitter. So I went ahead and preordered teh Legacy Collection.

Gonna hope Hayter will be announced in a new trailer soon to get the real fans hyped.

Last year's show was mildly better, without hip-hop artists and wrestlers coming out on stage to do things none of us care about. Still, it was pretty bad.

Most people watch it for the reveals, especially the big one they always end the night with.

Eldyraen3948d ago

I admit I "watch" it while I do other things while listening for game trailer intros. It isn't something I would watch if weren't a few decent reveals or nice look into future games though.

despair3948d ago

Nope, I hate award shows on the whole and the idea of Video Game Awards is a joke in itself (hell all awards shows are jokes). I just looked at the reveal trailers after the fact when everyone had a copy on their websites.

TronEOL3948d ago (Edited 3948d ago )

I watch it every year for the game reveals (Naughty Dog's games are always announced there). I'm usually doing something else at the same time tho.

Kidmyst3947d ago

DVR it to zip thrugh to announcements, premiers and such and maybe a few awards but 70% I skip. Bad comedy attempts, actors/acrtesses making gaming quotes that don't work, gimicky crap easily skippable.

He wasn't forced too, if he didn't want to reveal it he didn't have to use the trailer spot.

despair3948d ago

yea they made it sound worse than it was.

despair3948d ago

I was fooled for about 5 minutes before the flood of information that showed it was MGS V, people are insane with figuring this crap out. I suck at it though.

TekoIie3948d ago

We were still skeptical though. I think many figured it out as soon as we saw Snake but the "mystical fantasy" parts of the trailer were pretty good at throwing people off the scent :)

Popoffboy1877183948d ago

I use 2 love metal gear , but spllnter cell came about crush it. Then splinter cell gets lamer every new game , now we stuck with no stealh games .The last of us hits the scene now us stealh fans can rejoice. I would love if this metal gear game can be great again, snake is a bad man!!!

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

Number1TailzFan165d ago

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

Stanjara165d ago

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

Minute Man 721165d ago (Edited 165d ago )

Are they counting every game?

Edit: they did

Nyxus165d ago

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

ApocalypseShadow165d 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…

Cacabunga181d 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

micdagoat19181d ago

I do wish they would remaster all the soul reavers

micdagoat19181d ago

it was done this morning though

goldwyncq181d ago

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

Chocoburger181d ago

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

RupeeHoarder181d 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.

YourMommySpoils181d ago

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

RupeeHoarder181d ago

It most certainly does not lol.

andy85181d ago

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

1nsomniac181d ago

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

Snowb420181d ago

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

Shane Kim181d 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.

KyRo181d 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
