Did you really think the flood of
Metal Gear news had already ended for today? Well, it hasn't. As the
MGS4 Completion Ceremony came to a close in Japan, one final audio clip of Ocelot on the phone suggests that plans for a new
Metal Gear game are already underway.
1Up translated Ocelot's phone call monologue and wrote down the Russian triple-spy's exact lines:
"By the way, what should we do about The Project?" and "It's about the sequel."1Up suggests that the new title may be
MGS5; however, we think that with Solid Snake
out of the picture, the
Metal Gear series will continue with a whole new moniker.
Metal Gear Raiden anyone? Perhaps
Metal Gear La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo?

it's that "Project Snatcher" thing Kojima is working on with Suda, the sequel should be his next project.
Ed @ May 13th 2008 7:45PM
Metal Gear Otacon?
James @ May 14th 2008 11:48AM
So the whole game is sitting at a computer pushing buttons? Kick ass -- I'll buy it.
Dooty @ May 13th 2008 7:53PM
Well technically speaking, it wasn't Solid Snake in MGS3 too. So it could, theoretically, still be within the realm of the "MGS" series with another character/Snake.
Binaryfiend @ May 13th 2008 8:01PM
Metal Gear Altair?
Panathas17 @ May 17th 2008 12:36PM

erico316 @ May 13th 2008 8:04PM

Kane @ May 13th 2008 8:02PM
They won't let a big franchise like this die, there will be at least 2 or 3 more..
Fraser JK @ May 13th 2008 8:05PM
This game will see so many copies, I think the world might explode!
Ninjakamster (PSN: Chin-Poh) @ May 13th 2008 8:06PM
Am I the only one who liked Solidus and was sorry to see him go? : (
Kattleox @ May 13th 2008 8:08PM
I liked him. He was a good villian and actually had really good motives, therefore making him a non-villian, but one that you had to kill anyway.
Jimbo @ May 13th 2008 11:58PM
hahaha,
Listen more carefully to the trailers released today, and you will have at least a sliver of hope that he didn't really go. Remember, MGS is the series where people refuse to die. Who would have thought Liquid would be back? Did you really see Solidus die? I recall him being seriously injured, and then cutting to the next scene. How odd, unless this was deliberate.
XanthouS @ May 13th 2008 8:33PM
I keep telling ya, "Metal Gear Vapor".
Zombie Huggles @ May 13th 2008 8:42PM
Given that Solid Snake received all the dominant genes from Big Boss, they are essentially the same person...so in a weird retrospective way, Big Boss is Solid Snake...maybe?
anthonyjh @ May 13th 2008 9:01PM
Nope, Liquid had the dominant genes. Replay MGS sucka.
Dahk @ May 13th 2008 9:33PM
er... no Solid had the dominant genes. I just played that clip two days ago lol so I'm PRETTY darned sure.
Lungkisser @ May 13th 2008 9:55PM
It really was Liquid who received the dominant genes, though. http://metalgear.wikia.com/wiki/Les_Enfants_Terribles or just play the game all the way through (or check Wikipedia's article for Characters of Metal Gear Solid on the PS1.) Any source, really...
Kurt @ May 13th 2008 9:59PM
It was Liquid who received the dominant genes from Big Boss, but Snake turned out to be the better soldier. Tiem to replay MGS1 ^^
Bastard11 @ May 13th 2008 10:21PM
Wow.. somebody missed the whole theme and point of Metal Gear Solid. The theme from MGS was "Gene" and the point was that your genes don't define your fate.
Maybe it is time to replay that one.. you've got a month before MGS4.
RosuNamikaze [BRAWL: 2191-7424-4335] @ May 14th 2008 5:00AM
Pretty sure throughout the whole game liquid thought solid had the dominant genes, then the twist at the end was that it was acually liquid who was perfect, and solid had the recessive.
This could be proof that some people didn't bother to finish the game and just say they did for being in on the MGS4 uproar.
Annoys me when people do that to become part of something that so many others have been part of for years :(
Dahk @ May 13th 2008 9:34PM
Oh and I think the game's going to be called:
Big Metal Gear Friggin' Mama.
kiros @ May 13th 2008 10:13PM
Metal Gear Solidus is my prediction, playing as Solidus would be hawt
sicklesdawg @ May 13th 2008 10:31PM
Yes another ~*~~* EXCLUSIVE
Bastard11 @ May 13th 2008 10:32PM
Yeah this is clearly about Project S which is almost certainly a sequel to Snatcher.
Mike @ May 14th 2008 12:53AM
Snatcher was the shit back in the day on my sega saturn woo old times
greg @ May 13th 2008 10:58PM
it will more then likely star the true son of big boss who was conceived by Eva and Naked Snake(Big Boss) THATS WAT I THINK
Fullmetal Salchemist @ May 14th 2008 1:01AM
I'm pretty sure Big Boss was infertile.

Snake in a super wheelchair!
Mike @ May 14th 2008 12:49AM
LOLOOLOL

Snake comes fully equipped with a wheelchair controlled by the SIXAXIS.
He has 2 minigun turrets attached to his arm rests and a rocket launcher that folds down over the chair.
Ownage.
Arnon @ May 13th 2008 11:55PM
Heh...
Arnon @ May 14th 2008 2:14AM
Idk... if this is another MG... it'll probably be another prequel. I think the main Metal Gear Solid storyline should end here... If they keep making more it'll then just feel like they're trying to drag it on to make money. But this is just my opinion.
Lilinka @ May 14th 2008 10:06AM
I think (and really hope) it's more likely to be a Snatcher or Zone of the Enders sequel.
Admittedly the ending to Zone of the Enders 2 didn't really need a sequel, but I still have yet to play a game quite so fast-paced ludicrous robot action without importing it since. (There's a 360 game which is essentially a ZoE ripoff sitting somewhere in my house, but I can't recall its name.)
Joel @ May 14th 2008 1:28PM
I pretty sure that in the original mgs it does not mention that liquid had the dominant genes as i die hard MGS fan who has completed all the games except MGS twin snakes i was always under the impression that snake has the dominant genes. as the last speech by ocelot has changed from the original. And i think in all the times i have ever completed the original metal gear solid it never says that liquid has dominant genes.
Although it makes more sense with the mgs theme that genes don't decide a persons fate
