Master_Palpy, Kojima doesn't have any plans that I know of to remake both MG1 and MG2:Solid Snake but he alos said that "you never know". However they have been remade and are on the cell phones in Japan.

They should make 'Twin Snakes' for PS2. We need it. I hope that they remake Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. It shows how Solid Snake kills Big Boss, something I really want to see.

I agree with that, the MGS series is number 1 on my list of favorite games, nothing else really comes close except the Half-Life series and the GTA series but even those combined can't catch up to it.

So no remakes of MG 1 + 2 for the current console generation? Too bad. I think it wouldn`t be that difficult to do that. Basically they have the graphic engine, which is needed by now through the development of Snake Eater. Jungle stuff and things like that. And as far as I know the franchise is selling well... easy money for Konami, right?

I just heard on G4 Techtv that Hideo will direct MGS4 and that the camera will be centered around/behind Snake instead of up in the air. They said something else, but the whole story went by to fast I wasn't able to catch all of it.

EDIT: Found this at imdb.com


Imo, fantastic news for every MGS fan. Straight from IGN, a direct copy and paste:

E3 2005: Metal Gear Solid 4 on PS3!
In addition to Metal Gear Subsistence, Kojima announced and demonstrated Metal Gear Solid 4 for PlayStation 3.
by Ivan Sulic
May 17, 2005 - At the Konami press event currently in progress, Mr. Hideo Kojima announced that he has been authorized to form a development house within the greater whole of Konami. The new production Studio, aptly called Kojima Productions, will continue work on the Metal Gear Gear franchise with MGS4 on PlayStation 3, a game Kojima himself will write, direct and produce, as it was "demanded by fans and staff." Though as we reported early, the director of ZOE 2 is taking a heavy role in MGS4 development.

While the trailer being demonstrated was built off the PS2 Snake Eater engine, which Kojima says is not at all indicative of planned MGS4 quality, it still gave us a good sneak peak at what the game will eventually be.
MGS4 will take place several years after the conclusion of MGS2 and will feature an online battle mode. Conceptually, the game follows the idea of "nowhere to hide." What this means for gameplay, we do not yet know, but it could spell a more action-oriented, run to survive type of experience.

"You can run, but you can't hide." You dig?

We also know that a few favorites from the series will make return appearances, including Meryl, Otacon and Revolver Ocelot. Thankfully, Solid Snake will this time be the main character, though Kojima hinted that Raiden might still make an appearance.

Interestingly, Metal Gear Solid 4 will include Metal Gear Ac!d 2 connectivity. What this entails, we don not yet know, but plugging our PSPs into our PS3s is certainly an exciting prospect.

Kojima plans to demonstrate actual PS3 footage of MGS4 next year, which we expect will totally wow us. Expect more detailed impressions shortly.

Of course, MGS4 on PS3 is a completely different product than Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence on PS2. For details on that, please see the following preview:

E3 2005: New Metal Gear Revealed!
Hideo Kojima speaks about Metal gear Solid: Subsistence. Expect a new camera and online play! First details inside.
by Ivan Sulic
May 17, 2005 - Los Angeles, California
4:10PM PST...

Konami is holding its annual E3 press conference as you read this. Right now Hideo Kojima is speaking to attendees about his latest project, Metal Gear Solid: Subsistence.
While some details are still sketchy, our editors in attendance have relayed to us information straight from Mr. Kojima's mouth.

In a nutshell, the game is being billed as something similar to the Substance project, which itself was a product that fell somewhere between an add-on and a sequel. Kojima believes that Subsistence will "complete Snake Eater." It is the ultimate addition for fans of the series.

Set to release exclusively on PlayStation 2 (that's right, two as in ooh...la-la), Metal Gear Solid: Subsistence will feature:

A New Camera System!
For the first time ever, the Metal Gear series will do away with the conventional top down camera in favor of a fully free-roaming third-person camera system our editors confirm is "not fixed."

Online Play!
According to our boys, Subsistence will allow for between one and eight players to participate in online matches separated into two distinct modes. The first of which is being tentatively called "Versus." While we don't know much about win conditions, we do know that it's essentially a player vs. player experience. The second mode is called "Snake Versus his Enemies." Earlky word is that this mode pits snake and other players against computer controlled enemies in what our editors are calling "cat and mouse" gameplay. More details to follow.

Extra Secrets and Goodies!
Players of Subsistence will be able to access a "secret theater" in which tere will be exotic movies, comedy pieces, and other assorted googides and secrets not unlike the Ape Escape bonus to Snake Eater or the various extras in Substance.

Duel Mode!
This mode of gameplay lets Snake relive all of the boss encounters from Snake Eater (though we'd love to also see those from Solid and Sons of Liberty). It can be further broken down into two styles. Normal Duel Mode is an excat recreation of those original encounters, while Tweaked Duel mode allows gamers to alter a variety of unspecificed options and fiddle with the gameplay in general.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unfortunatley, Mr. Kojima was not speaking much about his intended plans for singleplayer or what the next-generation of game had in store for his tactical stealth action espionage series, but if we can pry details out of him, we certainly will.

Another mystery is when the game will release. We're hoping soon. Right now the the bet is on "early 2006," but that is completely unconfirmed at this point.

So, how does everyone feel about good ol' Snake with that new moustache and grey hair and...well his age?

Man he really let himslef go happy . I dont know what to think about him being a senior citizen. It will take some time getting used to. He can still kick Sam Fisher's ass though. happy I cant wait to play the game, Im sure it will blow me out of the water again. I cant wait to see what Kojima does with the story.

The title alone manages to keep my thoughts occupied. I completely agree with you, Atticus!

My first though:

"He looks just like BIG BOSS!!!"

Eyepatch and everything. If Snake was gonna look like anything, it would be the man he was cloned after. Maybe he should be bald and more Sean Connery looking though to get the full effect. :P

Seriosuly though, I understand why he looks like that, so I like it as a little nod to the old Metal Gear players who recognize that face.

Looks like CQC will make it's comeback. Good thing in my book.

By the look of Dave, MGS4 will take place in the future. I wonder if Ocelot is still alive in that time. He's been my favourite character so far. praying
