IGN has some new The Twin Snakes content. Here are the links.

Preview

Screenshots

Shaping up to be very nice, I'm pleased to say. The screens aren't all that great, because they're all just cinematic things. Wish they had some more in-game shots/movies.

The preview doesn't have a whole lot of new stuff, but it's still worth a read. They mention things about some (cool) easter eggs in there.

as long as we're linking to mgs previews, there's a new one at gamespot.

The game is essentially a director's cut version of the original PlayStation classic, Metal Gear Solid, and it features completely revamped graphics and enhanced gameplay.

surprisingly, they're a little more harsh on the fact that this is a remake than ign was. ouch.

This game is coming out in March , shouldnt there be advertisements by now? Hype this mutha up.

KingVudu, punk is bad for your health....unless its The Clash, of course.

I have just watched the videos and screenshots. They are really cool! Check them out! But be warned, there are some spoilers too.

SearanoX · « **Reply #655 on:** January 11, 2004, 04:15:56 AM »

I'll edit in my thoughts in a few minutes...these things are going at a really slow speed.

EDIT: Well, that was...a bit more than just a few minutes...

The videos are all really neat. I remembered some of the moments from the original, albeit with some changes to dialogue. I also like how they kept the old portraits from the first game. Very nice. The animation is also quite good, which is to be expected after Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty.

Good find, those videos.

Actraiser · « **Reply #656 on:** January 11, 2004, 04:38:23 PM »

Wow. The video at IGN looks outstanding. I love what theyve done with the cinematics and I dont think they changed the dialogue, at all. They weren't supposed to, anyway. I will have this. Oh yes, I will.

Did MGS2 have an option to invert the control stick's Y-axis? (so that Down "looks up" and Up "looks down" like in Wind Waker)

VoodooMerlin · « **Reply #658 on:** January 13, 2004, 10:18:19 PM »

I hope you can invert it. Down to look down and up to look up is pretty weird to me. I won't play a game if it's configured to only that control, I don't care how good it is.

I've never been a real Metal Gear fan since playing the first PSX game. I LOVED the game and couldn't stop playing it. I thought it was facinating.....until half way through. Here you've got this ultra cool guy named Snake, makes James Bond look like a weenie. You spend the first half of the game sneaking around trying not to be seen or heard. Incredible fun. Then he walks into a warehouse......there's this chick with a rifle up on a catwalk with a bead drawn on him....and what does hero boy do? All of a sudden his brains go out the window as he lies out in the open on the floor and tries to pick HER off with a scope. I thought to myself "what the hell? This totally wrecks the believability of the character. He wouldn't put himself in that position. What crap."

I took the disc out of the machine and never played again.

I'm thinking that despite that stupid part of the game, I'd like to finish what I started just to see how it all turned out. Maybe they'll have a code where I can level-skip that scene. ;p

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #659 on:** January 13, 2004, 11:43:10 PM »

I've preferred, no, demanded the inverted Y-axis ever since Link got his slingshot (or used the game's 1st-person view) in Ocarina of Time. Similarly here, I won't play a game if manual aiming isn't controlled/allowed that way.

Berny · « **Reply #660 on:** January 14, 2004, 08:39:51 AM »

Yeah, and especially after MP, which was my first real shooter, I will get REALLY confused if they suddenly switch the Yaxis again to "stewpid mowd."

SearanoX · « **Reply #661 on:** January 14, 2004, 12:02:31 PM »

You call Metroid Prime a shooter?

*murders*

Ahh, but let's not get into that old debate again.

Voodoo, despite that one scene, the game is still incredibly good. You can't expect it to be amazingly serious, because, after all, it is a mix of anime and Tom Clancy. I don't see why you don't want to play such a good game. Everything has it's flaws, and I doubt that this scene really ruins the whole experience.

As for The Twin Snakes...they've re-done nearly all of the cinematic scenes for the game (3 hours total), so there's a good chance that they've fixed that up.

VoodooMerlin · « **Reply #662 on:** January 14, 2004, 04:06:23 PM »

Yep....that's sorta what I'm saying. I was too harsh on it and would really like to finish it. You'll never hear me argue that it isn't a great game. A bazillion gamers can't be wrong. You work in this industry and you get picky and overly critical, trust me. Silly, really.

yellowfellow · « **Reply #663 on:** January 14, 2004, 06:16:53 PM »

there's a new movie up at the MGS: TS website (look under news):

http://www.konamijpn.com/products/mgs_tts/english/

it's almost half an hour long and has lots of cinematics

WARNING!!! it has LOTS of cinematics and LOTS of spoilers!!! i didn't even watch the whole thing because i think it might ruin the experience even though i've played the crap put of the PSX version

bryanee · « **Reply #664 on:** January 15, 2004, 07:02:20 AM »

That trailer is the dogs b*ll*cks (for ppl who arent english that means bloody brilliant).

Best cutscenes ever.

vudu · « **Reply #665 on:** January 15, 2004, 07:24:34 AM »

maybe i'm retarded, but i have to ask...b*ll*cks?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #666 on:** January 15, 2004, 08:45:38 AM »

Hey, wait a second...I never noticed this in the original...

SearanoX · « **Reply #667 on:** January 15, 2004, 10:02:45 AM »

Yep...another one of the easter eggs they've added to the game. Shooting Mario and Yoshi give different sounds and stuff.

The latest word from Japan is that a collector’s edition of Twin Snake will be released on the 11th of March which will be called Metal Gear: The Twin Snakes Premium. It will contain The First NES game on the disc, plus an collectors art book. The set will be sold for 21.000 Yen/155 Euros.

Nice.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #670 on:** January 15, 2004, 03:23:42 PM »

Plus there will be a limited edition GC to fit the occasion!

SearanoX · « **Reply #671 on:** January 15, 2004, 03:55:30 PM »

Very nice. I'll definetly be picking up this collector's edition, if the rumours are true.

Actraiser · « **Reply #672 on:** January 15, 2004, 06:16:28 PM »

but will the fancy collector's edition be released in the states? heh. probably not.

CaseyRyback · « **Reply #673 on:** January 15, 2004, 07:34:56 PM »

If they released it here I would buy it

I really wished that Silicon Knights would have stepped up to the plate and instead of a port of a NES game given us some VR missions

Only problem now seeing as it probably won't come here is do I want to buy a MGS GCN or a famicon GBA SP

CYBERSTAR · « **Reply #674 on:** January 15, 2004, 07:54:22 PM »

if there is no vr missions this game will suck big time ! the vr is the best part.
