Oooh wasn't expecting this. I figured sometime early next year. Awesome. :3

Snake? SNAKE? SNAAAAAAAKE....?

I thought they said it was just a demonstration to show off the 3DS's powers and that another completely new game was going to be made... Ah well, this game is win anyway so I'm welcoming~

_{moar naked snake and young ocelot yay}

Alright, that's sooner than I expected. Maybe I will get a 3DS this year.

I may actually want to get a 3DS now after hearing this. By the time November hits the craptasitc launch price of $250 will hopefully drop.

It may not be a 200$ 3DS, but this discount is still pretty great.
There are tons of other ones for the same price.

I wonder if this game will feature Chinese proverbs?

No it won't, sorry. I mean, it does take place in 1964. in the USSR.

_{oh wait I forgot about... um, nevermind cough}

Kojima always figures out how to maxx out a system's capabilities. Professional game reviewers wept when they played the demo for this. Now imagine us mortals playing an entire game like that.

DDD can't wait! mgs 3 is the best one imo

Stupid Sexy Snake!

The enemy is near!

@Robo-goose: That is headed in the right direction at least!

@zezzy the fan reception to the demo was so high that I think they had to make it. the multiplayer features of Peace Walker are supposed to be included which is fairly awesome although I can't see how it works into the plot...

Awe-some. But I want it today. Or yesterday. Seriously, I lvoe me some Metal Gear

yesssssssssssssssssss

YES!!!!!!!!

"Not yet Snake! It's not over yet!" -Liquid Snake

MEEEEEOOOOOOOOW

_{sees Ocelots get in fighting position}

@MechaPhoenix That was a good one.

What comes to the game, I'm excited and waiting to get enough money.

The enemy is still near by. USE EXTRA CAUTION!

WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!1
This made my entire week!

Hoping they'd also bring out Metal Gear Solid Collection to 3DS at some point for those who missed out on previous games. Or whatever console- just bring it out.

Supposedly it was planned for around spring 2012. If it is so, this might be a demo like the one we will receive in mercenaries.

November is hard to believe, and still long away to be happy about especially given comments from Konami that the demo was just that at that point, and that there was no project that had started.

Hope this is true

I haven't played the Metal Gear Solid games. Will I be able to enjoy this without having played the first 2?

No one better sneak up on me while I'm playing this game in public.... especially when I'm being stealthy...they just might get hurt..

@ShadowSniper7 This one is actually a prequel, I believe

@Shadow Sniper

NO

@ShadowSniper7
Metal Gear Solid 3 is technically the first in the Metal Gear timeline, but you'd be much better off by playing them all in order. 3 has a lot of nods to the other games, and its twist ending won't have much effect on you if you're new to the series. It's an enjoyable game in its own right, but if you want to really "get" the story, just start with MGS1 (or the Gamecube remake, Twin Snakes) and work your way up. They're short games and it's totally worth it

METAL GEAR!

Ok, I got an old PS2 sitting around. I'll grab MGS1 and 2 before I play this one.

Guys don't get excited yet it is just a rumor

Yes, do that @ShadowSniper7 the games are really good~

@Kid_A: Thank you for saying something that's actually from 3

_{and that I've heard too many times D:}
