From the new PSP Graphic Novel. Coming out on DVD:
Here is the description from Play-Asia:
"The legendary infiltration mission completed by Solid Snake is made into a film. This is not an anime or comic strip but a digital moving illustration collection drawn by Ashely Wood and is completely voiced, in Japanese, by a star studded cast of seiyuu. including the famous Ootsuka Akio who plays Snake.
The events in this DVD come from Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. These two stories fill the link between MGS and MGS4. The plot features what Solid Snake is doing during Raiden's act.
The package includes a fully voiced upgraded version of Metal Gear Solid 1: Bande Dessinee. The story from Metal Gear Solid lasts for about two hours while the one from Metal gear Solid 2 lasts for 3 hours, totaling up to 5 hours of screen time. Aside from the high volume of high quality illustrations, the package comes with a special disk to commemorate the oncoming release of Metal Gear Solid 4 and all of these are contained in steel case drawn by Ashely Wood"
So how are they going to fit 5 hours on a DVD?
No foreign sky protected me,
No stranger's wing shielded my face.
I stand as witness to the common lot,
survivor of that time, that place.
- From 'Requiem' by Anna Akhmatova
