So is that co-op within the story or some mode they showed intertwined with single players gameplay? It seems like the game itself is co-op and you all play Big Bosses, which is weird. How do cutscenes work then? Suspend disbelief?

all the Snakes arnt really there..so everybody is snake from there own perspective( think Brawl story mode..to pitts)

Ah great example. We all know how fluidly the storyline of the Subspace Emissary matched the gameplay on screen, and we know how seriously Nintendo took that story. Is Kojima sure this isn't an offshoot? I just can't imagine having played MGS4 with four player co-op all as Snake and having everyone disappear for every cutscene just to reappear for action. Then again, I'm used to in game dedicated characters in my co-op that are in the story, thus involving everyone as an important piece of the game. Basically this will be a co-op game where you interact with eachother but are supposed to pretend for story purposes that Big Boss is alone the entire time.
