Why MGS5 Shouldn't Be Announced Yet

From the Site...The Internet communities have been on a roller-coaster ride for about 2 weeks now due to Kojima Productions teaser site for their next project.

When the teaser site emerged, fans went crazy and started to speculate what could be the (Next) project by Kojima Productions and the strongest speculation remains to be "Metal Gear Solid 4 coming to the Xbox 360" & "Metal Gear Solid 5 Announcement".

But This Isn't The Right Time To Announce MGS5.

[Saint Sony]

Bull"#%! It's not about MGS5 anyhow...and even if they announce it now it does not mean it comes out the next day. Another useless blog.

"a Halo game is released almost twice every year".. FAIL, but keep on dreaming, I know you love Halo and wish it was true.

[JeffGUNZ]

It's suppose to be a NEW project, not MGS5, that's just a new game, not a NEW PROJECT. I doubt it's MGS related at all. They are not going to have another MGS game ready in 1 year, if they do, then it will not be as good as MGS4. Give people disagrees for when you REALLY disagree, then comment about WHY you disagree. I gave you that agree because you deserve it. The people on this site are a joke.

[SL1M DADDY]

'Cause I don't love Halo and it is quite possible that the author of the blog does not as well. His thoughts on the blog being bull@%*! are right on though.

[Mainman]

I think its MGS5, Kojima practicly confirmed it at GDC.

[JoySticksFTW]

FU

It can't get here soon enough

[InFAMOUS1]

MGS5... MGS4 was announced at E3 2005, and released 3 years later. Why can't they do it with MGS5????? Everyone is talking new IP, but with Solid Snake out of the picture, it is pretty much a new IP. I would love to see MGS5 released in 2011. I think that would give the master plenty of time to release his new vision for the MG franchise.

Now or later i am dying to play another MGS game, who gives a crap about uniqueness

[kingOVsticks]

Kooojiiimaaa? It isn't metal gear unless its unique to other games. Otherwise it'll be just another shooter(which we all need 10 times a year).

[Steve007]

Exactly what i mean to say, Kojima=Unique titles but even he cannot produce a quality product just in a year or 18 months.

[Rhezin]

haha go check out IGN's comments, the people on there are BY far THE most retarded. They should be beaten several times with a metal gauntlet for the kind of stupidity they post on that site. I agree though I ALWAYS post my reason for disagreeing.

[JeffGUNZ]

Yeah same here, that's why that button is there. It's a shame though, you post your reason for a disagree and then by the time you know it, you're at 1 bubble. It's a joke. This site is run by like 50 fanboys from both sides ruining it for everyone. I voted bubbles for you kind sir.

[Nelson M]

And here's my reason
Your A BoT
You too Gunz

[JeffGUNZ]

Nelson, I am still waiting for you to complete one full sentence. You know, with a subject and predicate. Well, maybe you don't since you started a sentence with "And", and you used "Your" when it's suppose to be "you're".

[-Mezzo-]

Making another MGS within one would sure be a bad idea like every sports sim by EA is. i am sure either it's a totally new ip or MGS 4 on 360.

I don't know why are you calling the site a fanboy he never stated a single sided perspective.

[JeffGUNZ]

If you're referring to my comment, I mean n4g.com in general, not the site where the article originated from, to clarify.

[Steve007]

Why do people disagree without any reason. i just don't get it.

[gta2800]

lol @ your disagrees

[Steve007]

Both of your comment went over my head.

[JeffGUNZ]

haha it started in the gamerzone and he replied in the open zone, a little confusing I know.

[Fishy Fingers]

"and the strongest speculation remains to be "Metal Gear Solid 4 coming to the Xbox 360""

Ummm... only to those misinformed. Kojima already said he is not working on an MGS4 port, so even the simplest minded soul could work out his new game is not an MGS4 port.

"So as a true fan of the Metal Gear Solid series i wouldn’t want it to turn into yet another cash grab project."

Also, as another huge MGS fan, even if it were confirmed to be MGS5, I wouldnt dare go as far as to say "another cash grab project" before seeing the project itself. As any fan of Kojima would probably be aware off, he's not the type of developer to be interesting in doing such a thing.

[lordgodalming]

Definitely agree. Metal Gear is a big seller to be sure, but Kojima hasn't exactly shoved those games out the door without being finished, has he? If it is MGS5, I'd guess a mid-2010 release at the absolute earliest. An even later date seems more likely.

Off-topic, always good to hear your simple, common-sense thought process, Fishy.

[memots]

Why are 360 fanboy so excited about this game out of a sudden??
Isn't this game just a movie anyway ?

I remember when it came out on ps3 all we heard his enjoy your "movie"

So now that its coming on their console the rule have changed?
Or maybe 360 owner finally realized now what Mgs fan have been saying all along that this game is greatness. It didn't get a perfect only because it was exclusive to ps3.

[ultimolu]

I swear, Kojima is gonna choke somebody if he keeps hearing those rumors.

The man may just snap one of these days...

And I agree memots. I don't get the excitement for this game all of a sudden when 360 fanboys have sworn up and down that this was a movie and not a game.

Now they want to play a "movie"?

I could care less if they get it or not but this is funny.

[DNAgent]

Ominous clouds overhead. "5" meaning F5 (Tornado). It will count down to 1 (describing the different strengths of the Tornado).

The game will be released for PS3, Wii, & Xbox 360.

Now hopefully we're done with these articles.

(I'm just going to copy & paste the same comment in every article relating to this because if there are going to be a bunch of duplicates of the same thing then doing this is just easier).

[Zizo_ha]

Cuz u r a stupid and a retard .. Who doesn't want to see another masterpiece by hideo kojima .. the best game of this gen .

[Steve007]

@zizo_ha... we all would love to see the next MGS5 but not just yet.

[Fishy Fingers]

Speak for yourself, it were as good as the previous titles I'd take MGS5 tomorrow.

Huh, guess someone thinks I wouldn't. Well they know me better :/

[I did not murder him]

MGS5 is not being announced. edit disagree? You really think this is going to be the 5th console game with Snake's story ark?

[Megaton]

I don't even want an MGS5. MGS4 ended the story of Solid Snake and damn near every other character in the Metal Gear universe perfectly, leave it at that. Anyone who has been paying attention to Kojima over the years knows that he wants to move onto something else. He's been saying 'this is my last MGS game' since MGS2, but he keeps getting sucked back into making another Metal Gear masterpiece. At least with 4 he wrapped everything up, making his exit to other projects a lot more possible.

Let the man move on.

[Sir Ken_Kutaragi]

Oh i get it. The 'NEXT' means -

Please insert 'NEXT' disc into your 'ChatBox 360' to continue!!! ;-D

I hope the ChatBots get NOTHING...they DON'T Deserve it :-/

[XPC HARDonE]

n4g is a blackhole of logic

[Azures]

They should really take blogs off this site.

Its NEWS 4 Gamers, not BLOGS 4 Gamers.

[keltickennedy]

I don't understand what this guy is talking about it being too soon for MGS 5 to be announced. MGS 3 Snake Eater was released in March 2004, then MGS 5 was announced I think May 2005.

[Mr PS3]

Is Coming Sooner or Later
This teaser might be Something Else
It's never really that Simple with Hideo
But Who Know's
I Hope it is though
The Metal Gear Games have always Delivered

[MetalGearBear]

JUST BLOG.
it may trick u.
IF u want MGS4 SO BAD!!!
BUY PS3!! THANK U

[gamesblow]

Since everyone is in an uproar over this whole mess I'm going to go ahead and put "some" of your minds at ease.

Kojima has not touched a 360 dev kit to this day. The new game is "NOT" for the xbox 360 and it's "NOT" MGS 1,2,3, 3.5 or 4 or even 5...

We have not heard anything on Sony's end that says otherwise. Check out Gamestradomas.com daily starting Next week for updates.

[XPC HARDonE]

check this out

not saying MGS is coming to 360, but this picture and article at least show kojima has a 360 in his office, so your claim that he has never touched a 360 dev kit to this day may be wrong.

wow your response below is full of caps, no matter how many caps you have I still cant hear you through the computer.

You own 20 consoles but you never touch them, what do you do with them?

Also if it is Tornado Outbreak, that is currently listed as mulitplat
so far:

http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News...

and if kojima has something to do with that game, then his hands may have touched a 360 dev kit

I dont care really but you seem so angry about this I could not help but engage you.

[gamesblow]

I repeat... HE HAS NEVER TOUCHED THE DEV KIT's FOR THE XBOX 360. EVER! Just because he has a 360 in his office means nothing. I have one... I have a wii and about 20 other consoles and handhelds. Doesn't mean I touch them all.

I work for SCEA, man... I'm not angry. I just know what I know.

[TOO PAWNED]

XPC

Just because there is "Tornado oubrake" Konami game that is multiplat, doesn't mean Kojima and his team are working on it, Konami is big you know?
It makes sense what Gamesblow is saying, i remember Kojima in one of his video interviews saying that tech and money they invested in MGSS4(that uses PS3 power) will make profit for them, if that doesn't happen with MGS4(but it did happen). Engine that Kojima Productions developed is for PS3, so why should they dumb it down to run on 360? If anything they will go for more for their next game, not less.

[TOO PAWNED]

XPC
BTW
That is regular 360 on pic, 360 dev kit looks different and is black

[dogmeat eater]

This thing is a joke

[Steve007]

you are right that is just a regular Xbox360 maybe he's a Viva Pinata fan, anyway Kojima has always supported the PS3 for 1 simple reason which is that he loves to go beyond boundaries with his titles.

He might make an MGS4 for 360 due to Konami's cash hunger but PS3 will always be the only platform for MGS games.

[Pootangpie]

anyway Kojima has always supported the PS3 for 1 simple reason which is that he loves to go beyond boundaries with his titles.

if he really wanted to push boundaries with his titles he would MADE MGS3 exclusive to the Xbox since it obviously kicked the living **** out of the PS2 in terms of graphics sorry sony fanboys that excuse doesm't work either

[Rowsdower]

I should know because we are one and the same.
