I CAN'T WAIT TO PLAY SNAKE AGAIN!!! I've been replaying the previous games and practising my stealth ability so that I can be ready for MGS4! I wonder if they'll release a special edition? (ie. Substance, substitence?,whatever.) Or will they just release patches for it? Hmmm...anyways, I can't wait....for another 8-10 months??? :(

What are you talking about, 8 - 10 months?

MGS4 is slated for a Q1 2008 release as far as I'm aware...i.e. between February and April if i remeber the way the Games Industry breaks up the year.  So at the most it should be out in april which is only 6 months away...

sorry to bust your bubble JD-82 but MGS4 got delayed to Q2

btw hasn't this been know for a while, going to different continents?

@JD-82 read back on the article from last week from here or some other games site. It was officially announced by Konami that there is a delay and won't be released until Q2 of 2008! Consequently, Konami shares have dropped to a new low! :(  I just there aren't anymore delays come 2008. Catch ya!

It is such a tease when reading this all I want to do is play this game.

psn id: gingo.. he also said this was going to be a huge game which i hope means long because MGS games aren't usually that long but if this is a good length it could be the greatest game of all time because the gameplay and graphics are absolutely stunning

I wonder how the progression of each continental portion of the thread will effect the lifespan of Snake and how some of the old Gears will come into play as well.

multiple locations? thats cool. south america would be interesting, perhaps we'll see more jungle action like in MGS3?

i hope there is a gnarley(yes i said gnarley lol) jungle lvl where you shoot somme sommies in the  crouch,like something like crysis that would be awesome

this info has been known for a long long time, but i guess a little refresher doesnt hurt for those who never knew

@ secretsquirrel

All of the MGS2 videos prior to release were of the tanker - and the tanker only accounted for 1.5 hours of the total game.

I'm hoping all of these various locations don't hurt the storytelling too much. To me, MGS has always been about the United States government affairs and whatnot.  I love the whole conspiracy plotlines and such...hope the globetrotting doesn't interfere in all of the MGS goodness

this is the only game that gets delay and I won't be mad with

Its good to know ive been a dedicated PS fanboy, since the PS1 and i will always be a PS owner, ill never be a xbox owner...NEVER!

Its time to show the world that the playstation 3 is the ultimate gaming platform to ever be released! MGS4 is paving a path for the PS3, so if you dont have a PS3 soon, u'd better get one for the PS3 will dominate!

SONY4LIFE!

I never got a chance to play the previous MGSs so I hope this one is great.
