I'm happy, but not over-the-moon.

Porting development of this game over to Silicon Knights was probably either Kojima's or Konami's descision. It frees the actual MGS team to work on MGS3.

Could this steal MGS:TTS's thunder? I think it could.

I know this is a bit off topic, but for those of you talking earlier about how to pronounce Konami.  Seeing as how it's a japanese word it would be pronounced "Ko-Na-Me". (me as in "Who wants some ice cream?" "Me!")  However obviously in english it sounds a bit funny so it's generally pronounced the way you guys figured.  Just a little info for you all.

Truthfully, I am not at all interested in this game. I dont want to play the first MGS game, even if it has enhaced graphics and one or two extra areas, it just doesn't interest me. I wish Kojima and Konami would get off their asses and make an actual new game, instead of remaking an old one for a quick buck.

Odd- I could've sworn this was the first remake Kojima had done. Besides, it's not even Konami maknig the game, so don't blame them.

I wouldn't be surprised if MGS Twin Snakes is two player cooperative. But since it is a remake, I don't know what other character that you would get to control. In MGS2 you would control both snakes and Raiden.

I'm sure this isn't just a regular remake. Otherwise they wouldn't have to make Silicon Knights develop the project and have Miyamoto and Kojima both overlook it. Just wait to actually see what extras there are before writing it off instantly.

We'll have to wait E3 and find out.

Anyway I have trust in Myamoto, Kojima and SK.

Exactly!  Miyamoto and Kojima are amazing, and together with Silicon Knights, they'll make the greates MGS experience ever.  I have complete confidence in all three parties.  One more thing, didn't Silicon Knights say they were developing a second game (alongside Too Human) secretly?  If I'm remembering correctly, then Too Human would still be coming out, whether it is this year or next.

hell konami hasnt even given us a mystical ninja! They made a mystical ninja for ps2...breaking from the mystical ninja exclusive to nintendo tradition. It got terrbile reviews though...it broke from the formula.

Hmm... I can't say I'm all that excited... Metal Gear Solid was a good game, but a bit overrated IMO, and I don't really feel like playing it over again.  I was hoping for a new adventure.  Still, Silicon Knights... that's a twist I would've never dreamed of.  Very interesting.

It suprizes me to see that no one actually bothers to read a news artile properly. All they read is Metal Gear Solid and Remake and you folks assume that it is a remake on the PSX version in the lines of the RE 1 remake. Well this game is based on the original and the original MGS game was relased on the NES. So I assume this game is a 3D conversion of the 2D game that was released on the NES.  Lets hope Konami sheds some light on this during E3!

Actually, I did read the news item.  It said Metal Gear SOLID was being remade.

The Metal Gear games made before Metal Gear SOLID were known as Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, and Metal Gear: Snake's Revenge.  Metal Gear SOLID was made for the PSX, and later ported to the PC.

There was no Metal Gear Solid on NES.

I enjoyed MGS, and hated 2, those long, sappy, annoying dialogue's. Jeesh. So I'm glad they're remaking the one I like.

Mmmm, SHiggy + SK = delicious.

MGS3 IS IN THE WORKS!

Kojima has said as much! He even let on that it might be shown at this year's E3. It could very well take TTS's spotlight.

Ahh.. alas, I would've loved a remake of the original MG, that's something we really need to help flesh out the storyline.  If they did MG in MGS2 style it'd basically be a brand new game.  But with MGS, we'll keep the same dialogue and story exactly, most likely, so that only gameplay and graphics will improve, and that I'm not really interested in.

I'm having shaky feelings about having SK do the game.  I never played any of their games but i guess i'm just sorta shaky because they might change the way MGS plays.  Sorta have the same feeling when Retro was publishing Metroid Prime.
