http://www.gamersyde.com/news_6367_en.htmlApparently its been popping up everywhere. I haven't seen it myself, but they say its a mix of all the older trailers with maybe some new dialogue.

New footage at the end. Nothing really that big though. Pretty cool trailer though... ^_^
Hippysnake - April 24, 2008 08:43 AM (GMT)
Good lord. What was that at the end? Good lord...

I posted that couple hours ago but it was pushed back by a nonsense post, anyways In my opinion that trailer kinda resembles LOGAN's work.

Eh? It's nothing like LOGAN's stuff. That's certainly not what they've been working on, that's for sure.
Not sure were this was released from though; I'm thinking it's the Japanese ad?
As for the 'new' footage: Looks so awesome and nice to see a bit more of the graveyard scene.
@SNAKE!?: My guess is that they have switched the scene about considering the scene in question was from a year or more ago.
Solidest Snake - April 24, 2008 10:52 AM (GMT)
If you noticed they've overhauled even the old scenes using the new engine, which looks great cuz earlier models of Snake was too old.
FaizanKauser - April 24, 2008 10:53 AM (GMT)
Holy, Looks awesome fuckin great graphics !
Draketopher - April 24, 2008 11:06 AM (GMT)
Yeah, it's official. You can tell just by the updated graphics. Pretty cool. The end was like, wow. I dunno about you guys but if snake does it i'll be a bit disappointed.
micster - April 24, 2008 11:24 AM (GMT)
That was one sexy hot edit. Especially with all the red effectness.
So now we know that
[spoiler]Snake attempts Suicide atleast twice. Will one of them work? We'll see[/spoiler]
And OS. I doubt it'll be a Japanese ad. They seem to be snappy and somewhat short [like our ads]
Good Exampleshttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=IX2weFe83Qchttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ESxgNK_EQtk[And this is the best advert ive ever seen]

Heh, I didn't know the Japs had their own version of 'Hello I'm a mac..'
I still think our mitchell and webb ones are hilarious, if maybe a tad annoying after a while..
Anyways the new trailer looks awesome. It's weird how they've updated the graphics and made so much difference in such a short time..
MAHooson - April 24, 2008 12:35 PM (GMT)
[spoiler] Do we think this is Snake attempting suicide a second time, or that they've just changed the location? I mean look at MGS2, and how they showed Snake in the Big Shell, only to reveal that we played as Raiden. If it's a second attempt, then this says to me that his mission is a success, and he returns to the grave to kill himself?

[spoiler]I doubt they would change the location because it is such an epic scene. They only showed the Big Shell with Snake to keep Raiden's identity secret. I agree with what you think though, After the mission is done then tada[/spoiler]
rayofdoom - April 24, 2008 01:24 PM (GMT)
that is nice footage at the end, does he try to kill himself twice? or is it a replacement for the other scene? i cant see them having 2 of the same thing. just hope this doesnt re ignite the whole does he pull the trigger or does he not pull the trigger? thing
micster - April 24, 2008 01:36 PM (GMT)
Here is a gorgeous screencap of 'the moment' from the Youtube version. I also have a few shots of the moments just before.
[Cmd + Shift + 3 screenshot taking FTW]

MGSnake - April 24, 2008 05:36 PM (GMT)
I don't see the interest in the whole attempting suicide thing, it's the most annoying aspect of MGS4 to me so far. And it doesn't seem like something Snake would do at all, especially after playing MGS2.
Everytime I seem him put a gun in his mouth I think "this is so pathetic" I'm hoping in the end what the scene actually represents means something totally different, like he has to stop himself from being controlled by the patriots or shooting himself will make he reborn young or something stupid like that as long as it isn't "this is all hard and I'm old now *bam*"
redfox45 - April 24, 2008 05:49 PM (GMT)
Looks like that first Raiden scene was in South America all along.
GreySnake - April 24, 2008 07:17 PM (GMT)
Holy hell this is awesome.
I get more and more pumped with each new trailer. This game is going to be the shit.
I just hope that the whole suicide attempt scenes aren't overdone. I hope that there's only these two, if any. I'm sure there'll be some kind of reasoning behind it. I doubt they'd show us how he died so early on.
Roy Campbell - April 24, 2008 07:31 PM (GMT)
Has anyone found this video with subtitles? I want to know what they are saying.

I agree. Suicide is so out of character for Snake...
sadistic_greyfox - April 24, 2008 07:41 PM (GMT)
Pretty cool, the suicide thing is to show that this will be the final MGS game, Kojima doesn't want fans to expect a sequel so he's making it clear this is the last. Nice trailer BTW.
VII - April 24, 2008 07:49 PM (GMT)
could the grave scene possibly be the last part of the game? maybe snake losses someone close to him like Meryl or Otacon and cant forgive himself thus suicide. maybe im just talking out of my ass. but anyways awesome trailer this will keep us happy for a while :D
MGS. - April 24, 2008 08:44 PM (GMT)
Its pretty nice! I like it. Mostly the footage is the same with the earlier trailers but the end changes. It seems like Snake is going to commit suicide on the graveyard rather in the building somewhere in the Middle East section.
A 10/10 rating for me! ;)
LatwPIAT - April 24, 2008 09:26 PM (GMT)
He has no mustache when in from of the grave, but when he enters the helicopter he has...
Snake ages fast!
Splitter Snake - April 24, 2008 10:21 PM (GMT)
Someone get to work on subtitles! :o
...Pretty please. :ph43r:
Solid Turd - April 25, 2008 12:27 AM (GMT)
That scene at the end is perhaps one of the sadest things I have seen. I sincerely hope Snake doesn't do himself in. I love the new lighting and rehauled graphics so amazing! Now if only this damn Beta would start working!!!
Draketopher - April 25, 2008 12:30 AM (GMT)
I saw this and thought it might be interesting to show everyone.
the improved graphics (in some cases)
I think eva looks horrible now.
Large Image, SO CLICK HERE
Splitter Snake - April 25, 2008 12:32 AM (GMT)
Eva is 70 years old...she shouldn't be a knock out. :P
However, that's pretty amazing how far the graphics have came in about a years time.

Indeed. I'm talking from a graphic standpoint.
Splitter Snake - April 25, 2008 12:34 AM (GMT)
Oh, I see, I suppose I could see where you're coming from, but I actually prefer the newer version.
No biggie.

I pretty much prefer the newer version as well. I'm just not a big fan of how short Meryls hair is now and that one little bit of evas face.

Excuse my language but, Meryl looks like complete Dyke now... :P
Helikaon - April 25, 2008 12:52 AM (GMT)
Wow, you can really see how far MGS has come since 2006. Especially in the Raiden and Meryl/Rat Patrol scenes.
Hmm looks like the Raiden/GEKKOU fight occurs in South America. Shame, I was hoping to get to Raiden early on in the game. Still, I suppose 2/5 in is better than 4/5 in.
TOKUGAWA HEAVY INDUSTRIES - April 25, 2008 01:24 AM (GMT)
Maybe it's just the quality of the images in that comparison, but... everyone looks a lot uglier in the new trailer. Especially Otacon and Raiden.

Seriously? If so you're probably in the minority, I thought that the newer trailer was amazingly gorgeous.

No he's not alone. I think they all look a bit whack...The only one that really hasn't changed that much was Ocelot. Everyone else looks a bit strange. But oh well, they will grow on me.
Soriddo Suneku - April 25, 2008 03:02 AM (GMT)
Of course my internet is so shitty, I can't even get the video to play and it's not available anywhere else yet...fucking bullshit.
Edit:
Found it on youtube.

That was pretty damn nice.
My enjoyment was kinda killed with the lack of subtitles or English dub. But yeah, it was still pretty awesome.

That doesn't mean he's not in the minority, perhaps you just are apart of that minority? I don't know, the graphics look so amazing to me I don't see how anyone could not like them.
killer_chair - April 25, 2008 04:29 AM (GMT)
Splitter Snake, calm down man, he didn't say he wasn't in the minority, he just said the previous poster was not alone.
In any case, I like the new trailer, although I'm not a fan of Meryl's shortened hair, as someone mentioned earlier.
