I own MGS2 for my PS2, and those screen shots look better- some of the textures could be a bit cleaner and more detailed, but even in screen shot form Twin Snakes, in my opinion, looks better than MGS2. I'm sure these are old shots, too, as is per usual with Silicon Knights and I wouldn't doubt the game will look at least close to MGS3, given Silicon Knights' superb graphical capabilities.

Well yeah, they do mostly look better than MGS2, especially the textures (Except the carpet on the one in the commander's office. Yuk.), but a few of the models (Meryl, in particular) are sub-MGS2 standard. Also, I'm not sure I like the look of the Ninja in this one so much. I dunno what it is about him. He just looks wrong, to my eyes.

MGS TT really ought to look better than MGS3 because GCN is the superior system and SK good graphical developers.

It certainly should look better than Metal Gear Solid 3, but from the screenshots we've seen so far it doesn't. Snake's model is excellent, but that screenshot showing Meryl up-close looked really poor. I hope that Silicon Knights still have a lot of work to do on the graphical side of things, as the GameCube is capable of a lot more than what has been shown so far.

I have MGS2 PC.  I will take some screenshots of the game later on to compare with MGS: TTS.  Personally, I think that MGS: TTS is just as good as either PS2 MGS game.

As far as the Ninja goes, he looks freaking perfect to me.

Yeah, I dunno what it is about the Ninja. I think its because he reminds me of the horrible (and I mean HORRIBLE) pre-rendered FMV that was released on an early MGS trailer. I just dont like the way it looks in this one. That's all there is to it.

My mind still puzzles over MGS3 though...it's so confusing.

GameCube Heaven is reporting that IGN is reporting that MGS: TTS is being delayed to 2004.  Though Konami hasn't confirmed it.

dont worry there- it kicks mgs2's ass in terms of story and characters- in fact i loved the story on mgs- it was one of its high points- and personally i love the bosses in mgs- they were just awesome- better than mgs2- combining the new techniques and graphics of mgs2 with the story and characters of mgs is genious- so dont worry- mgs was miles better than mgs2

Well Gamecube Heaven is now reporting that Konami of America is saying that MGS: TTS is still coming out November 2003.  Confusion and chaos now begins.

Until Denis says 2004, I am going to assume it's still on for Christmas.

Hemmorrhoid, the story of MGS1 is excellent.  If you like James Bond movies, then expect to see a story on par with the older James Bond movies.  (or maybe Goldeneye, my personal favorite, and IMO the only good new one).

The characters are ALL very well done and excellent.  MGS2 is high on my most hated games list, and MGS is quite high on my list of favorite games.

I'm just wondering what the UK release date will be. I would guess it's not going to be before Christmas now...

very impressive... but that's very much a no-no.  You aren't supposed to link directly to pictures unless it's your own website.

Who or what is Grey Fox? I remember it/him/Her only by name, butI cant remember what it actually is, person, machine? I have played the game, but my memory sucks.
