Well we have all been waiting for it. A fifth installment to the Metal Gear series.(and no that Rising disaster doesn't count)
Last night for the Metal Gear 25th anniversary Kojima announced Metal Gear: Ground Zeroes, however, much like his previous releases is only releasing little teasers for the public. People who attended the event saw a demo of the game which featured Snake doing what he does best.
This new Metal Gear will be Kojimas first game to run off the new Fox engine and be open world. Reports said that the demo of it was amazing.

AMAZING," followed by "Snake crawled @ avoiding searchlights, killed guard, rode jeep, called in heli for evac. Sounds like MG, but the scale & atmosphere... Wow."
No time line has been confirmed but it looks like it will be featuring Big Boss/Snake as the main character and what i'm assuming will take place before Peacewalker and after MGS3. That should give us a more in depth look on how "The Patriots" were formed
What is everyones thoughts on this and what do you hope to see out of this new game?

here you go an AMAZING VIDEO.
well with the video being released it is apparent that this takes place after Peacewalker since there is reference to Chico and Paz
This is awesome, can't wait! Also just to be a wanker because I am hoping Rising will turn out decently enough, this would count as the 5th entry in the Metal Gear Solid series (from what I've seen and played, there will be very little stealth in Metal Gear Rising - hence the name change - also possibly because there will be no Snake; the game started off as a bridge to explain what had happened to Raiden between MGS2 and MGS4, but when Platinum Games took over it was changed to take place after the events of MGS4).

see thats the only part i dont agree with kojima on. no other studio should do anything to do with Metal Gear. The NES versions werent made by kojima and look at how bad those were compared to the original MSX2 versions.
Big Boss? then this MGS is before the events of MGS 4.
correct theres some speculation that it is after MGS3 but before peacewalker. since peacewalker dealt with outer heaven and the first metal gear was based in outer heaven.
