His excuse for David Hayter not being in the game was absolute garbage

>Recreate the Metal Gear series
>It's new type of Metal Gear
>By no means new outside of how gameplay works still follows the old plot and builds on it
>japanese version still has original voice actor


I'll try not to dwell on all this too much, I already have, but it's a big deal to me and it sucks.. and his reasons for doing it aren't even story related just some lame excuse about reinvention? He's basically saying fuck Hayter.

Bring on Doyle/Cygan then.

I don't have any links, but I'm pretty sure it was announced as non-cannon around the 25th Ann, because its absent from the collection, yet PW is in it.

Though it's in the 20th Ann collection so who knows... I'm sure adbro or nyx know or have some link or some shit but I remember reading it on here

This is a timeline that lists all official and canon titles within the franchise.

It's in Japanese, but yeah. I can read it and confirm. :p

WOW, so from September 2, 1964 - end of Operation Snake Eater to 1974 the beginning of Peace Walker the only thing that may have happened that's cannon is 1972 - Les Enfants Terribles Project..

Weird i wonder why Hideo got rid of PO it would be interesting to here that story. that's a shame i really liked Null, Python & Gene.

(In the Metal Gear Solid 4 Database, the event is also referred to as the "San Hieronymo Peninsula Metal Gear Seizure Incident)

Kojima basically answered that

Quote:

 

Kojima explained that the new unit, Diamond Dogs, has many different meanings behind its name. One of them is a reference to a David Bowie album. It also refers to the term Dog of War, but at the same time they have their pride (which is reflected in the Diamond part).

I think the Fox Engine will definitely be scaled down for current gen consoles, but I want to believe it wont. It looks way too good for current gen. I wonder if it's the way the engine works allows them to have it look better, without having it suffer from being outdated? If they have to scale it down for current gen consoles, how much?

have to say, TTP and GZ's don't look too mind blowing to be on current gen systems... you only have to look at what GTA and Uncharted achieved.

On the intro part of the trailer you can see that the character models aren't super high detail or complex and defo (to me) look current gen.

I'd imagine that yeah FOX is designed around next gen systems, but allows them to scale to PS3/360 and Vita without any problem.

I do think it looks better than anything I have seen on current gen at least. This shot especially:
