This shit’s getting way too complicated, man. Another conspiracy theory for Metal Gear Solid V and Hayter has emerged in the form of a 10-minute video. According to this one, both Kiefer Sutherland and David Hayter will be in the game! How fucked up is that? Not much, actually. With Kojima’s mind fuck this could very well be true, and besides, the guy has some great points. Just watch the video and let me know what you think.

As many of you probably know, David Hayter announced some time ago that he wouldn’t be returning as Snake in Metal Gear Solid 5.

But yesterday, he tweeted this: “I’m so excited for E3! I just hope I don’t lose my voice” and a day later, Konami released this teaser for their pre-E3 conference on June 6:

Good news for PC gamers! Platinum Games’ Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is coming to the platform. This was first revealed by director Hideo Kojima during his podcast and later confirmed by Jean Pierre Kellams, creative producer at Platinum Games, via Twitter.

Owner of a sentient and superior AI compared to his mass-produced clones, Bladewolf struggles to become more than just a pawn in Desperado‘s plans.

In the other hand, Platinum hasn’t shown the same resolve to create this side-story.

Amidst so many crazy bosses in the game, there was this guy with a code of honor and ideals that would rival the protagonist’s. He wasn’t evil, but was also not willing to give up without a fight. Who was he, anyway?

You may not see everything you wanted to, but it’s good while it lasts.

Yes. Well, maybe. You’ve probably heard about The Phantom Pain by now. You know, the mysterious trailer that was shown at last year’s Video Game Awards.

The game is supposedly in development at Swedish “Moby Dick Studio,” which probably doesn’t exist. The name of its CEO is an anagram of Kojima. Last week, we found out that the game runs on Konami’s FOX engine, and that a new trailer would be shown at GDC.

Hideo Kojima has posted the screenshot above on Twitter. Is this the trailer? Also, notice the name of the video “TPP_GDC2013_720p_ESRB”. Interesting, eh?

Yesterday, GT.TV started with Geoff Keighley interviewing quite the exquisite character. This man here claims to be responsible for The Phantom Pain, the oft-rumored fifth entry of the Metal Gear Solid series.

His weird reactions and the constant evasion on answering simple questions have made the interview seem like there’s more to be seen than just some screenshots from the game.

Ever since its initial concept, Rising promised Metal Gear fans a 180 on the series’ traditional formula: the careful exploration of your surroundings and silent approach to enemies would change to a fast and noisy combat with a focus on slicing things up. Kojima Productions took a lot of time to work around the concept, but the game started to fade into oblivion and was seemingly doomed.

But then, Platinum Games stepped in.
