TGS 2009: Hands-on: Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker (co-op)

September 28th, 2009 at 09:57am Under PSP

Sharing a flimsy, cardboard box with another soldier is sure to be an inexhaustible supply of awkward discomfort. Aside from the clear violation of personal space, there are two major concerns for the occupants of Metal Gear Solid’s iconic camouflage: (1) Who’s driving this thing? And (2) that better be your gun poking me in the back, I swear.

Thankfully, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker has an elegant solution for the former problem. Holding up on the PSP’s d-pad will “sync” you with your sneaking partner(s) and, as long as the button remains held down, you’ll stay in automatic lockstep with the leader. Remaining a cohesive group is an essential strategy for a silent approach, though splitting up offers its own advantages as well.

Kojima finally explains his wacky countdown site

July 16th, 2009 at 05:30pm Under Xbox 360

Remember when Kojima’s countdown ended … and started another countdown? Man, that was fun! The creator of the Metal Gear series seemingly had a big laugh as he teased gamers all the way to his E3 announcements: Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker for PSP, Metal Gear Solid: Rising for PS3 and Xbox 360, and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow.

As the countdown continued, the site featured a number of symbols that flashed on the screen. Many of you attempted to break the code … but were you successful? Kojima just revealed what each of those symbols was supposed to mean:

  • 5 = it is an MGS5 class game
  • S = Snake
  • 巳=snake in Kanji
  • E = E3
  • R = Raiden
  • 3 = 3 from 360 and E3
  • 6 = 6 from 360
  • P and S = PSP and adding 3 makes it PS3

Once again, Kojima asks gamers: “Did you like it?” We think we can speak for most gamers when we say … “no.”
