The neck crack is basically a novelty though. Especially since the game is about stealth, not about taking people out. Devoting a whole button to an action thats not even a big part of the game (especially when the controller isn't that well set up for the game) wouldn't be that smart.

hooray for crappy games

Super Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance Championship Edition

The PS2 version relied on a lot of awkward "button tapping" in lieu of not having real analog triggers/clickdown to boot which could be remedied here.

I always generally fire off a shot (unintentionally) when switching from FP view back to normal view. It gets really, really annoying because you have to be really careful how hard you press.

How? When you switch into FP view you don't even use the fire button. And when you do, you have to basically want to fire for it to do that. When you pull up the gun it won't fire until you press the button again. I remember doing it several times and then realising there's another gaurd and then I just drop the gun back down.

if true... bring on MGS3 for crying out loud...

I think the best part of this news is that SSX and I no longer need to quivel about Konami's Cube support.

We're on the same team! :)

:eek :eek :eek :eek :eek

Here's hoping that it's an MGS remake and not yet another port of MGS2. Not only do I feel MGS is far superior to MGS2 in many areas, but a port of MGS2 this late would do jack squat, and I'm sure both Konami and Nintendo know that.

Good news to me. If ya got a problem with it, buzz off.

I'll wait until a more reliable site reports this rumor before breaking open a case of champagne and dusting off the Cube to celebrate.

They could have made that neck breaking more elegant if they assigned the neck-break to L3, instead of repeated tapping of square button. You press square to hold the hostage, then click the L3 to break his neck. Anyways, that function wasn't very useful to begin with so they probably never gave it much thought.

Btw, I honestly don't understand how could a bullet be fired accidentaly while switching from 3rd to 1st persone view?

I doubt it's that. Miyamoto seemed to make out Nintendo and Konami are working on it together.

Everytime Miyamoto says we and x company, it mostly means "we Nintendo and Konami have come to an agreement". It seriously is insane to think every usage of the word means Miyamoto is co-developing the games.. especially something like Kojima's MGS (which no one but him touches) or EA Sports.

I'll repost my reaction to Gahiggidy's tip:

OMG OMG OMG! Nintendo to buy Konami! Konami to become Nintendo 2nd party! TeH m3g4t()n!!!

Its official when QUITER reports on it.

Errr, have they? :confused

It still seems dubious that this information is 2 days old, and no legitimate sites have picked it up.

Only after twelve pages people find out that they have been 0wned.

So you think that entire Italian interview was made up? :confused

I don't think so, Miyamoto's doing a European tour right now.

You mean the interview that came from a Junior Member, with only 13 posts to his name.....that contained no link to an actual source....

Naw, nothing suspect about it. :) Even if you weren't Italian, you could run an old Miyamoto interview into an auto-translator and add in some crap about Metal Gear. Bigger frauds have been perpetrated..

So? Don't you think that if it was true and if the news broke out on Monday that by now every other reliable site would have reported this, just like the new Castlevania news?

To me it sounds fishy and unreliable, especially after all the hoaxes, false reports, and Nintendo rumors in the past months.

To hell with MGS, I hope to see a Castlevania game at e3. Or perhaps another one of their good forgotten games. (ZAMN!ZAMN) The EA thing is interesting, I wonder if it will use the E-Reader and coded player cards?

ahh milhouse... the French dude at the back of the class that got all the chicks... :(

"What are you talking about? milhouse started this topic."

I'm talking about the guy that supposedly posted the entire text of the interview.....

Zaks was implying that this must be true because who would make up the entire interview like that....and I was pointing out that there was no link for the interview whatsoever.

I got no idea what these "It's milhouse!" revelations are about.

Just one more thing to consider. A while back, Konami's website invited Gamecubers to their board to talk about the support Konami had been giving the GCN up to that point. There was much bitching and flaming, and in the end Konami said to be patient and something big was coming for E3. Coinkidink? I think not :)

Konami Admin says... .... I will say this though, everyone should just wait till E3 before commenting on Konami's (Gamecube) line-up:)

Of course that may have just been a clueless message board admin trying to stop a flame war and get people to STFU *shrug*

The first reply by Craddock Zooi is deliciously ironic and deliciously appropriate, as this may end up being another "Megaton". Which is to say, it may be a bunch of speculative hogwash that has everybody on the edge of their seats for days, and then nothing comes of it.

As usual, time will solve the mystery. Gamespot seems to be finished with their evening update....still no confirmation. ;)
