Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker Listed For PSP

@Noparanoiarh: Get lost.

@elmorepow: Really? I don't have a PSP yet. But soon, soon!

@Sonira - I am old news.: That IS the point, my friend. :)

Shit. I wish I could know that the PSP Go's graphics were that amazing. I seriously doubt it though.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...
Big Boss deserves HD.

@Chances: they'll get me with tekken 6.

stalin23

@Sonira - I am old news.: I can't afford it, either. And once I can, it's a choice between the 360 or the PSP. I have the PS3, Wii, and DS already.

It's a tough choice, especially after all this E3 news!! :(

if it's for PSP; fine, whatever. i just want it to be the same classic style as MGS1,2,&3. is that so much to ask?

probably.

legendofmike

I'd much rather have a Big Boss/Naked Snake game on a home console... but the instant I found out that MGR was a home console game, I knew that the Big Boss image on the teaser site was related to a PSP game. Not that I have anything against the PSP (I love mine), I just don't think it works that well for MGS. Maybe if the control mapping were better. Adjusting the camera with the dpad was a bitch...

Better than nothing, though, I guess.

Regulus

@Dangeresque: Moustaches or GTFO: I remember I had an actual army of recruited guys. It seemed there was always some grunt with new "features" I had not seen before, and I couldn't leave him to the "enemy."

Also, MGS: PO ad-hoc multiplayer = pure goodness.

I can't believe I still got good grades my senior year of high school...

@JayUnreal: I believe you can add memory to it, no?

In any case, I'd suggest a PSP 3000 to someone who will play many games personally.

@lordofsword: PSP 2000 and 3000 can be plugged into an HD TV and you can play it on your TV.

If we're lucky the PSP Go's bluetooth will let you pair it with a dualshock 3.

@Noparanoiarh: Protip: Arch is one of the oldest (I don't mean his age, I mean the time he's spent here since his first comment) and most respected commenters here.

The community likes him, and his comments pretty much always have something sensitive.

We all have our biases, and I probably agree with him on almost everything he says, but I'll give you a friendly advice: give up on your little crusade against him. It's very childish, and it's the definition of trolling because you're turning every single thread into Arch-bash. Stop now, or you will get banned.

I love summer, and I love E3, but with these two things come a bunch of new commenters who think anything goes here.

Everyone, relax and have a good time. This is one of the best times for gaming every year. Stop spoiling it for yourself because of fanboy allegiances and most importantly, stop ruining it for everybody.

@Archaotic: Monster Hunter is really hard to get into, just due to the lack of very good instructions and crap weapons explanations.

Once you get going though it's addictive as all hell.

Crisis Core was very good, and damn amazing looking. This from some one who never played more then 30 minutes of Final Fantasy 7.

I'm very hopeful for the new game, especially if its anything like Portable Ops (Which it most likely is). PO was a great game with an interesting look into Big Boss.

Maybe Big Boss starting to set up outer heaven?

Mikatro

@electroshockwave: I think your pictures are in the wrong order. (Unless of course that's the point)

I'm quite certain this will be the one featuring Big Boss. Maybe as kind of a follow-up to "Portable Ops?"

I can see that happening.

@libregkd: They got me with Wipeout and Twisted Metal... the same games I first got for PSX.

@Kyolux: Kyolux is my internet uncle CONFIRMED

Rocky_Winston

@Archaotic: Psycho Mantis totally called me out for saving every five seconds xD

I never had a PlayStation when back in the day, but MGS always sounded like a badass series so I figured I might as well try it when it appeared on the GCN. I was a total Nintendo fanboy back then so I was giddy as fuck that it was coming from Silicon Knights, back when the name meant something :'(

Rocky_Winston

Oh mehn too much to handle

Fauxe

That's a pretty sexy picture.

Hmm...Peace Walker. Let me guess:

ONE. MAN. ARMY -slapped-.

I dunno..that's just the first thing that came to mind.

NekuSakuraba

I can't help but read that has Pace Maker....

Old Snake isn't done yet he still has 16,666,000 heart beats left.

billysan

That pic looks so awesome! Now I want a PSP GO NOW!!! >_<"

@Hellicus:

chillpill.jpg

seriously, and plus many sites are already alluding to his comments. there's no law against trying to predict news. you know kotaku does that for a living right?

@Noparanoiarh: How about you get off that High horse of your's

AliShaikh_Returns

@Archaotic: Well, it still was MGS's story. So, yeah it was.

@Chances: At least you get to stand. ): I just don't have money for a PSP.

@Toasticus: I'm just praying Nintendo has some good stuff to show tomorrow; Crackdown 2 and Shadow Complex alone made MS' press conference in my opinion, as did the insane visual upgrade in Halo 3 ODST.

I'm a lot more worried about the House that Miyamoto Built. I know they have good stuff coming, I'm just worried they're going to skip showing it tomorrow and premiere it later. =/

@elmorepow: I'm with on this one. Can not wait for a new Metal Gear on PSP. I played the hell out of portable ops. I was a little disappointed in portable ops 2 seeing as it was more single missions with no set up and was primarily online oriented. So if this goes back to be being a straight up MGS PSP game I'll be one happy, and busy/unproductive, gamer.

A-Rude-Hero

@Archaotic: How could we forget? Awesomeness abound!

@Kyolux: It might have been easy, but it was still awesome. :[

@Archaotic: E3 does seem to be bringing more fanboys out of the woodwork than usually lurk around here. You have my sympathy. I'm doing what I can to mock PS3 fanboys, myself. Maybe we should team up?

@You Are My Friend!: I will "totally" "disagree" with you on that.

Ops was a little too repetitive, but it successfully made a MGS game that had a portable feel without seeming like a compromised experience (though more voicework woulda been good), and infused it with Pokemon-style addiction. It was great.

Dangeresque: Moustaches or GTFO

Peace Walker --> Peacemaker --> Colt Single Action Army --> Revolver Ocelot?

Never thought about it before, but playing as Ocelot would kick ass!

theobling

@Shinta: Dammit I was gonna say that!

Spiffyness

@Patriot Infinity: well the lack of the number 5 has me thinking and looking forward to sony's conference..

@Archaotic: I love the ps2 generation:x mgs2, mgs3, ico, shadow of the colossus...good times..good times.

Ricardo Freitas

@Archaotic: But TS was TOO easy. It used elements designed for MGS2 and put them in a game designed with out it.

It's like giving an homing missile to Mario in SMB 1. It just would break the game.

@Toasticus: 360 fanboys are pissed at me for making a joke about my half-dead console in the original Metal Gear Solid Rising post. I think they're just mad the game isn't exclusive to the 360 or something, even though that would make no logical sense if it were to happen.

Console wars suck, I wish it was still the PS2 generation.

@Rocky_Winston: Don't worry, Twin Snakes was the first MGS game I beat too.

It's not the first one I played, but the first one I completed. As a kid, I SUCKED at MGS games. When I picked up Twin Snakes, the better graphics and the enhanced control scheme made it a lot easier for me to play through.

Yeah, the cutscenes were kinda silly, but it was a damn good game and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

"You...you like to play Smash Bros., don't you?"

@Rocky_Winston: I started on the bastardised version on NES! You're like my little cousin!

@Archaotic: I cannot understand for the life of me why you're being attacked here. You haven't even expressed an opinion or preference in this thread yet. Buh?

@Noparanoiarh: How about YOU get outside?

It's not like Arch is pulling this stuff out of thin air.

@Bialia: Ohh that's a shame.

@Noparanoiarh: Wow, someone's a little pissy tonight. Clearly Kotaku was thinking the same as me, considering they just posted about the game being multiplatform.

Calm down. Nobody's trolling here except you.

@katsujinken: Knowing Kojima, I think by the time it's Nintendo's turn to wow the industry, he would probably reveal a Metal Gear Solid title for Nintendo.

Well, it is possible... :P

@Rocky_Winston: i loved my psp 2000 to death but crisis core only lasted a week of bus rides... I tried to love it but the only way i saw for me to realy enjoy it was to pirate a butload of games since most of em only last an hour or two but my consience made me sell it

pretty pointless to put it on psp, and whats with these gay names? peace walker? wtf?

@Revenge_of_Nekojin:

It's ok, Archaic is just a fanbot.. don't let him rile you.

Noparanoiarh

PSP looks pretty good actually if it is closed.

TT

@Archaotic:

How about you get out side for once, your opinions are stinking up the joint.

Noparanoiarh

What is with these terrible Metal Gear title names? Rising? Peace Walker? I mean what happened to awesome subtitles like Sons of Liberty, Snake Eater, and Guns of the Patriots? I hope this isn't a sign that Kojima is losing it.

robpe36

@MaxDragon7: 2011. It won't be out next year.

@Archaotic: Hey, I started playing MGS on the GameCube!

...probably the only person though :/

Rocky_Winston

@Chances: Give the PSP a chance. I bought a 2000 recently and love the shit out of it. Yes it's a little on the big side to side in your pocket and chews through batteries about the same was rust mangles old Hondas but the games are pretty ace.

Rocky_Winston

@Archaotic:

*dons a broom and begins swinging wildly* QUICKLY SIR! Get to higher ground before more of them come!

Damned dirty apes!

@elmorepow: TBA, huh?
Gotta wonder when it's dated for released! ^_^

@Revenge_of_Nekojin: I don't find being locked into endless stun loops by enemies very entertaining. That doesn't require thought, it requires the patience of a madman.

@Revenge_of_Nekojin: I don

@LllusionX:Proud Commander of the Sony Attack Force Helghan!: Well, I'm sorry you have low standards?

@snakepliskin: And how exactly would you like to move the camera? Both L and R are used for other gameplay elements.

@electroshockwave: That picture never gets old lol.

Shinta

@Archaotic: Obviously not. Crisis Core = press X to win.

Monster Hunter = learn to think.

@Archaotic: I bet it'd be possible. Twin Snakes, Metal Gear 1 and/or 2.

Not for me, though, thankfully I'm endowed with a PS3.

RyderJ

@Noparanoiarh: I wasn't BASHING anything, calm the hell down. :P

@Archaotic: Shut up for once! You sit on the site just to bash every little thing. It is sort of annoying.

With that said, yay! PSP version of Metal gear!

Noparanoiarh

@Hellicus:

Fanboy alert for who? Seriously man. I saw Arch get flamed to hell on the other thread for ridiculous reasons that he ended up ultimately being right about. Get off the man's back!

Arch is right as far as this goes. It's not official official, but it's as close as you're going to get... Until tomorrow.

@FatalChaos: No problems with ordering it online, but I'm in Canada. Still waiting for a decent listing on amazon.ca. Some day! :)

Bialia

@JayUnreal: Heh the only reason I complain is because of my wallet.

drizzt_rocks

Solid snake who brings peace??? No way!!
Solid snake is all about Destruction!!, M-16!! Grenade Launcher!! Nikita Missile!!, HIND D!!! Bam bam bam!! chk chk boom!!

squall3031

@drizzt_rocks: Now theres too many? People always find something to complain about.

But I agree, with a PSP Go, only a handful of games can be saved on the device itself... so I'll have to be picky.

@Bialia: Amazon has a couple new ones listed, I know it's not a physical store but if you want the game bad enough (I highly enjoyed it) I would suggest getting it through there.

@libregkd: DS? Wii? And Don't say it can't happen because there's been Metal Gear games for NES, Game Boy Colour & Gamecube. Personally I think a new Metal Gear game with high grade pixel art on the DS with the radar, items & codec on one screen and action on the other would be sweet. Heck they could also use the secondary screen for when the binoculars are equipped to see other screens while still being able to pay attention to what's going on where you are.

"peace walker" is still a little less confusing than when "snake eater"'s title was released

Peace Walker is only a few letters from Pace Maker

@You Are My Friend!: lol! thats great! and I agree with you 100%.

otis123

@excaliburps: this is exactly why i didnt like MGO:PO! the controls were bad, the PSP doesnt have the precision MGS requires

@Shinta: I think you're on to something here.

Chuck Norris: [cache.gawker.com]

Big Boss: [api.ning.com]

WOOO~~~

New PSP game with BB F'yeah >_>!

@otis123: I forgot to add "and"

otis123

@Revenge_of_Nekojin: I loved Crisis core.... ;_;

fuck... a psp game? big boss needs to be on the ps3! I want a new MGS that involves SNEAKING on the PS3! MGS4 had no sneaking unless you chose to play like that, but it gave you too many guns. damn you kojima! damn you to hell! this is the exact oppsite of what i wanted, hell I will still buy the psp game, I'm on the fence about GAYden's game. I'm sorry I'm being such a shumck, but these are not the MGS games I want, I lost my Empire total war save, damn you steam!

otis123

[gamespress.com]

Here is the source that says Rising is for PS3, PC and 360.

elmorepow

@Archaotic: That would be me... but like Archaotic said, it's supposed to be on PS3, so I'm good.

Man, I love Metal Gear.

@excaliburps: With any luck Konami will try to iterate on the control scheme for MGS4 into this new PSP game. Gonna be pretty handicapped though.

Peace Walker? I don't think that Big Boss render has to do with that... it's too awesome looking.

Patriot Infinity

@Archaotic: Although that is a very positive thing, I just want it on my shelf. I'm old school like that.

Bialia

@RyderJ: Rising is on PS3 and PC as well. You'll be fine, as long as you're not a Nintendo-only gamer.

In that case, you probably wouldn't be a MGS fan though.

I liked the mechanics of Portable Ops but I just couldn't play it on such a small screen with the PSP controls. That and having to sit down somewhere with my PSP since I'm never on public transport or whatever to use it. I thought I'd get a lot of use out of my PSP but the game I actually played the most was Beats. SH:0 was terrible, I couldn't understand what they were saying in FF:Tactics, and GoW:CoO, I gave up at the 1st boss it was so ludicrous.

I'm not really interested in a Raiden game, Big Boss is my favourite character (MGS3 is still the best MGS game) but if he's getting a new game only on PSP then I'll pass.

lordofsword

@Chances: well they had me at hello. i guess i'measy like that.

mcdufus

@Revenge_of_Nekojin: And Dissidia....and LittleBigPlanet for PSP.

@Revenge_of_Nekojin: Did we play the same games? Monster Hunter was pretty terrible from what I played of the demo. Crisis Core was actually quite fun.

@Revenge_of_Nekojin: Crisis core is pretty awesome in my eyes. Mh:fu needs to let me remap the freakin buttons so i dont have to curl my finger into a painful position just to control the damn camera.

snakepliskin

@Revenge_of_Nekojin:
Psht, Monster Hunter can fuck right off, but I'd love me some more Final Fantasy 7 goodness. you're tempting me, Sony ;_;

Hey brickbrains, Rising will be released on PS3 too.

I'm so waiting for this Peace Walker. I played MGS:POPS for about 60-80 hours and POPS+ for about 40. They are pretty addictive titles. Every MGS fan should have played POPS already. The story is crucial for understanding Big Boss.

elmorepow

Well I'm sure PS3 is also getting MGSR, so this is great for Sony.

I played Portable Ops but I just can't stand the controls. There's something about it that frustrates me. Mind you I played all the MGS games for the consoles. Well,expect the crappy NES versions...

Hope the controls are better for this one.

excaliburps

@Hellicus: They're all listed on multiple sites, including GamesPress, by now. It's not official official, but it's as close as you're going to get.

@sascha23: No, because Crisis Core was a terrible, terrible game. He should be more worried about missing Monster Hunter Freedom Unite.

@Archaotic: Fanboy alert !
Seriously, there's nothing official yet... The only thing we know for sure is that the new MGS:R won't be an exclusive...
Would you care to wait 'till tomorrow ?

I will "Peacefully" "Walk" this shit to the garbage.

I mean, I liked Ops, but it became a pain to play after the first couple of missions.

Too many PSP games ... I cant believe I am saying that after last year >_>

Space the games Sony.

drizzt_rocks

That's easy, remember the emblem on Big Boss' beret (Militaire sans frontieres)? Peace Walker means that he goes to all sorts of places in the world to bring about 'Peace'. They probably going to split the gameplay to little bits of short-duration plays in order to fit the PSP better.

@Bialia: Well, when the PSP Go store comes out, maybe you won't need to find it at retail...

I call another Big Boss title.

Here's to a new adventure with Big Boss. *sigh*

@Archaotic: Seriously. Can't wait to see the Castlevania showing tomorrow alongside MGS and other Kojima shenanigans.

sascha23

You know what I hope? That this means you will be able to find Portable Ops at retail again.

I still haven't been able to play that game. Argh.

Bialia

@Chances: You forgot to "stand" FF: Crisis Core also. Wait, did I just make the pain worse? My apologies. ;)

sascha23

Peace Walker: One who's mere footstep rips people to pieces.

Oh nut monkeys. This is seeming to be a bad time to be a Metal Gear Solid fan without a 360 or a PSP.

RyderJ

Ooh can't wait....

@Chances: Everyone caves in at some point

They got me early with Lumines <_<;

Kojima should make a Walker Texas Ranger game for PSP.

Shinta

At least the communists wont get this one.

Gezbox says: Exclusives Make a Console, not Multiplats.

I don't want to want a PSP. MGS: PO, I can stand. GoW: CoO I can stand. Patapon and Ratchet & Clank I can stand. But I've stood all all I can, I can't stands no more.

Damn you, Sony. You've beaten me.

Don't forget about the PS3 and PC versions of Rising, and the new Castlevania, guys!

Well, I think we know where Big Boss next game will be on

@pandafresh: I have Portable Ops and it's a superb game aside from the fact that Kojim insisted on using an a camera behind instead over overhead since there's no right analog stick it's pretty much infuriating having to stop if you want to rotate the camera

@Archaotic: Try not playing the game like an idiot then. I haven't been stun locked to death outside of stupid mistakes since 2006.

Gamepress may be wrong because I have not seen it listed for all 3 at the other websites.....

Gamepress can get the wrong information.

My bet is MGS: Rising becomes basically a time-exclusive, that way MS gets the boost they wanted and also Splinter Cell: Conviction thus everyone's happy.

Splinter Cell Conviction probably stays exclusive, then PS3 gets a new SC: Double Agent game of some kind.

Jack Lorge

@katsujinken: but Portable OPs is so perfect on PSP, the graphics are so nice too. not that 2d isn't nice, but c'mon, c'mon.
