MGS4 online and gameplay!

[Subject 17]

Holy shizz nice job.

****ING LOAD GAMETRAILERS YOU PIECE OF ****!

any other place to get the high res vid?

::EDIT::

Alright, gametrailers is being gay and not loading no matter what I do, so i checked out IGN. Knew that insiders deal would come in handy!

Oh, and for those who didn't know, Metal Gear Online will be a seperate game. I do believe it is going to be for the playstation store and retailers. I am not totally sure.

Probably just so they can finish up MGS4, and the fact that MGS4 is probably taking up all the space possible on the 50 gig blu-ray disc, they probably didn't have room for it. xD

that looks sick as hell.
2 questions though:

is it a 1st or 3rd person shooter? (ive never played mgs before and couldnt really tell in the pictures)

whats up with the blue stuff on the characters in the online shots?

They said that in this version, you can play the entire game in 1st person if you feel like it, but traditionally it has been a 3rd person shooter (actually until subsistence it was a fixed camera shooter, the camera was fixed for each area).

But anyway that sucks about online being separate. I had assumed that, like MGS 3: S, it would be included with teh game. I'm going to be broke enough this holiday season, what with GTA IV- Haze- Assassins Creed- Socom: Confrontation- Blacksite: Area 51- Lair etc....

::EDIT::

Ok, just watched it twice. Freaking awesome. The FPS that you can play through the entire game with isn't really a typical FPS and you move way too slow in it, but for the MGS series it is perfect. I didn't like how the octocamo worked that much, it didn't look convincing enough. Also, that had to of been a really low difficulty and they probably had some cheats on (unless you can carry 300 rockets with you at all times). But still, this is an amazing game and I can't wait to play it for myself!

For online there's a system for you to see your teammates all across the map. From what I saw, your allies are blue, and enemies are red. When your teammates shoot at something, you'll see a line pointing at where they're shooting, and if they talk, I think a beam or something like that shows you who is talking.

The way you get to see your enemies position is if your ally spots them (only shows who'se been spotted), or if you kill an enemy and "hack" into their system, then all their allies (your enemies) will show up on your screen.

MGS4 for the 360. This video has it running on actual 360 hardware :(

I think that whole vidoe was a joke to illustrate the Blu-Ray disk capacity, and how it is superior to the Xbox 360.

If you read the comments on the bottom, the auther even says himself that the whole video was a joke.

I thought you were serious, but knew that the video was a joke. I didn't detect your joke in your post, obviously.
