A Metal Gear Solid that doesn't star Snake? Really Kojima? 
Now I love Cyborg Ninjas as much as the next nerd but I demand Snake in my MGS. Haven't they learned this from 2?

How do you explain this picture that was shown during pre-E3 alongside the Raiden image? I was hoping it was going to be another Big Boss game when I saw this. Unless there's going to be another game with him which would all kinds of awesome.
There's Portable Ops 2 coming to the new PSP Go when that's released, so that's Big Boss.
SONY's conference is tomorrow, and the countdown on Kojima's teaser site is still going, it has an hour and 15 minutes left. So I'm guessing there'll be a third announcement, for a game on the PS3.
So we got:
Metal Gear Solid: Rising (Raiden)
Portable Ops 2 (Big Boss)
PS3 title - Either MGS Rising or a different title starring Big Boss.

Interesting story here. We are going to get a new MGS game titled 'Peace Walker' out on the PSP which must be the Big Boss game that's coming out. God dammit.
Also apperently it's confirming that MGS: Rising is coming out on the 360, PS3 and PC. Not too surprised about this one coming out on the PS3, they never really said that this was exclusive to the 360 during the announcement. A PC version wasn't something I saw coming it has to be said.

That's great news! Now all we need is for them to port MGS4 to the Xbox 360, and I'll be a happy camper.
Heh that's still something I'm doubting that'll never happen now. If it was they would have mentioned it way before now. Saying that if Rising does really well then you never know, they might consider it but I still think it's unlikely.
Still not sure where they'll go with this, it probably will be based between 2 and 4 to explain in detail what Raiden was doing during that time. Gameplay I can't see it being your usual Metal Gear fare especially if you're presumably going to be playing as Cyborg Ninja Raiden. Some sorta DMC like game maybe?

I think it's after 4 personally. His armour looks upgraded to me. Plus with the whole "Rising" thing. At the end of MGS4 Sunny mentions the sun saying "It's rising again" and Snake told Raiden he is the lightning in the dark, so basically the light.
If you see where I'm going with this....
Also, notice the "Lightning Bolt Action" rather than "Tactical Espionage Action." My guess is, there'll be alot less stealth and more close combat.
Well it was more of a wish than a prediction really. MGS 4 sold exceptionally well for a PS3 only game, so an Xbox 360 port does look extremely unlikely. I'll keep hoping though! A "Substance-like" Xbox 360 version with some sweet extras would be a very welcome addition to my collection
I doubt the new one will be much like DMC to be honest. I just can't picture Raiden going ape and dispatching a dozen enemies within a few seconds with a katana, and I don't think it would fit the franchise. Perhaps something along the lines of Ninja Gaiden or Assassin's Creed? My personal bet though, would be something along the lines of the gameplay in MGS4 with a heavy emphasis on close quarters combat.

I'm only guessing this since it still has Solid in the title. MGS4 was meant to be the end of Solid Snake's story so why isn't this new game called Metal Gear: Rising instead of MGS: Rising? I might be looking into it too deeply into it but that's what I'm thinking anyway.
DMC was an extreme suggestion at what the game may be like, I can't see Raiden juggling soldiers for 30+ combos but I doubt we'll see much sneaking action if he's going to be in cyborg ninja mode. A Ninja Gaiden/Assassins Creed mix does sound pretty good.

It's so weird how MGS4 was released exclusively for the ps3 and now this is for the 360. I have both so I'll most likely buy this... though let's hope they don't milk the hell outta this game to. T^T
