I've never been a fan of shadowy video game hype. Either tell me what it is and when to expect it or don't tell me anything at all.

If this turns out to be a MGS game than what's the point of all of this? If it turns out to be a new IP it will leave people disappointed that it's not a MGS game. If it turns out to be a great game I won't care which it is, but I'll still look back on all this nonsense and wonder what the point was.

Jeez, no fun allowed in this often terribly boring industry.


lol, if you enjoy it that's great for you. I just can't be bothered with it. I want real details.


well then show that you don't care. and actually don't care?

And if you did not notice, everyone is talking about it, Its called PR, its to build a product that people WANT!

Thats the point, A D V E R T I S E M E N T ;)

 

I love what Kojima is doing!

 



I officialy know too much now.

If you clicked on this thread, their marketing is working.

Seems legit. Those bandages must be from the painstaking work he put in to develop this game. I look forward to their endeavors.

I agree 100%. To me this is a lame attempt at creating hype.

Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

Yeah, plus what if it's an exclusive? What if everyone gets hyped and it turns out to be only for the Wii U? They will just piss people off like the announcement of Bayonetta 2.

Did you not see the trailer? This was nothing shady about it. It was as much of a game trailer as any other. Also, Art style of the game, "Joakim", the Solid Snake/David Hayter voice... They're not even trying. It's got Metal Gear written all over it. This is just shits and giggles styled marketting if anything.

Yeah. Shadowy hype simply sux. This is not only because I'm not a particular fan of Metal Gear and Kojima (although I love Metal Gear Rising Revengeance and I'm super excited about MGS Ground Zeroes), because I would hate to see this "humor" style of hype and marketing used on my personal absolute favorite franchises (Elder Scrolls, Dark Souls, Dragon's Dogma just to mention a few). I would just go "cut the crap already, don't try to be smart and funny - show us fans what you really have in store for us"
