Tactical espionage moe? These Figumate figures provide an interesting reimagining of Snake, Otacon, Raiden and Ocelot. Rather more desirable than the crusty old commando himself, though this would hardly be difficult. Due for release December 11th, as a set of four, in the region of ¥3,000.
Kojima Already Thinking About MGS5

Wasn’t this supposed to be the last in the series? Snake’s last battle? Well, it seems that only applies to Snake, but the Metal Gear series will go on, Hideo Kojma reveals in the recent interview (scan below), also saying “I’ve got to get to thinking about Metal Gear Solid 5”. Clearly Kojima is not one to abandon a successful franchise, although this hardly seems surprising. Via Ore-teki.
MGS4 Product Placement Bonanza

With Metal Gear Solid 4 complete, all the details regarding the marketing arrangements in the game have come to light. It seems the game will be a vehicle for product placement on an unprecedented scale for an A-List title, with 10 product “collaborations” evident; but it is not so much the number as the prominence and lack of consideration for fit which stand out. Read on for the full details.
Metal Gear Solid 4 Completed

According to the official announcement, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is now completed, so all that remains is to wait for the release. Whilst a variety of dubious marketing endeavours are underway (placing Regain into the game seems positively tawdry), the biggest change this brings is the opening of the official site, filled with movie based quizzes which you can “complete” for “Digital Download Points”, exchangeable for a variety of wallpapers and the like – how very original. Still the game movies are interesting enough.
Hideo Kojima may have put his foot in his mouth recently, and again just now if you read the drivel he spouts in the press conference comparing SCE to space pioneers, but this hardly has any bearing on what will doubtless prove to be the biggest PS3 release to date; it will certainly be interesting to see how well the PS3 fairs with the upcoming releases of its major titles – my guess is well.
