"REDWOOD CITY, CA. - May 1, 2003 - Continuing to broaden the Nintendo GameCube™ library, Konami and Nintendo today announced Konami will publish a new Metal Gear® adventure exclusive for Nintendo GameCube. Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes™ combines the thrilling story of the original Metal Gear Solid® game with the jaw-dropping graphics and unparalleled gameplay found in Metal Gear Solid® 2: Sons of Liberty™. The game is scheduled to ship later this year in North America and Europe, followed by the Japanese launch in early 2004.

Bringing heart-pounding espionage action home to gamers, Metal Gear Solid® is one of the most highly-regarded action series ever created. Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes™ for Nintendo GameCube will combine stunning next generation graphics and gameplay, an epic storyline and unmatched content designed specifically for mature gamers.

Under the guidance of Konami's Hideo Kojima and Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto, Nintendo's exclusive second-party developer, Silicon Knights, is working with Konami to develop the game. Silicon Knights previously developed last year's award-winning Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem™ for Nintendo GameCube.

"I am tremendously excited to introduce a unique Metal Gear Solid® experience to a new audience of gamers as well as collaborate with my mentor in game design, Mr. Miyamoto, on Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes™ for Nintendo GameCube," says Hideo Kojima, vice president, Konami Computer Entertainment Japan, Inc.

"Mr. Kojima and I have spoken about this project for some time, and I'm excited our ideas have matched so perfectly," adds Shigeru Miyamoto, senior managing director of Entertainment Analysis and Development Division, Nintendo Co., Ltd. "It's this shared passion for game creation that has allowed us to collaborate to bring a special Metal Gear® project exclusively for Nintendo GameCube."

Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes™ will be featured at this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) on May 14 - 16 in the South Hall at Konami Booth 900 and in the West Hall at Nintendo Booth 2816."

Ooooh, this could be glorious. On the other hand, it could also be terrible. I wouldn't put it past Kojima to toss in new dialog talking about the Patriots. *shudder*

here's one of the problems, hideo kojima

This is in regards to story:

dude, he needs to get his shit straight, MGS1 was great and tight. Whereas i can imagine the writing process for MGS2 went alot like this:

"WHOA SHIT, FUCK MAN FUCK, TOO MUCH CRACK. .. FUCK SHOULDN'T HAVE MIXED WITH SPEED.. . . GITZ .. OK NEED A STORY FOR FSKING METAL GEAR. .. OK OK OK I GOT IT OK OK, WE START WITH FUCKING SNAKE RIGHT, YEAH SNAKE IS ON A FUCKIN SHIP, YEAH YEAH THEN HE DOES SOME CRAZY SHIT THEN THEN THEN WE MOVE TO FUCKIN RAIDEN, OK OK GOOD GOOD. NOW NOW OK RAIDEN WE HAVE TO MAKE RAIDEN LOOK AS MUCH LIKE A GIRL AS FUCKING POSSIBLE . . FUCK. . . HE RUNS AROUND AND DOES SOME CRAZY SHIT RIGHT, RIGHT? OK OK NOW WE PUT IN A BUNCH OF CONSPIRACY SHIT FOR EFFECT, NO NO NO IT DOESN'T HAVE TO MAKE FUCKING SENSE, FUCKING SHADOW CONSPIRICES A GROUP OF 12 GUYS ALL THAT SHIT, IT DOESN'T MAKE A FSKING DIFFERENCE. OK OK THIS IS GONNA BE FUCKING BADASS, FUCK YEAH MAN, YEAH. WHEN RAIDEN IS AT THE END, WE STRIP HIM FSKING NAKED AND THEN MAKE HIM RUN AROUND WITH CRAY SHIT GOIN ON ALL OVER THE PLACE, YEAH MAN THAT'LL BE THE SHIT, YEAH YEAH. . . .
.. .
. . "

I do like hideo kojima, but he tried too hard on MGS2 and made the plot line kinda silly and full of holes and shit. Plus you had bosses that you couldn't kill. . . WTF! you can't kill them!?!? why the fuck fight them then?! Argh fuck.

Only thing I'm worried about is that they decide to make it "everyone friendly" and bump it down to a T level. I'm not saying Hail M games it's just....oh nevermind it's MGS thats all I'm happy for.

Hopefully all Silicon Knights will do is handle the 'port to the Gamecube. Except for updating the graphics I can't see the game needing any changes.
