Just read an interesting little tidbit about the upcoming Metal Gear Solid 5. Apparently there is talk of it being a prequel with Big Boss as the protagonist. Read the source here http://www.gamingfront.net/story-25-Metal-Gear-Prequel.html
So what do you guys think of this? Good idea, bad idea?

Makes sense as a prequel seeming that MGS4 was Snakes last battle.

With the epicness of MGS3, I cannot wait for MGS5 now.

I wonder when it would be though..since they hinted the protagonist Big Boss. Before or after MGS3.

I think it will before MGS3 cause portable ops is about Big Boss after MGS3. Maybe it will be multi mission's showing how Big Boss came to become Naked Snake.

What of Big Bosses story is there left to tell?

I wouldn't mind a prequel about Gray Fox though. Maybe something while he was in Mozambique where he found Naomi or something

I think mr. Kojima should think about MGS movie, with real actors or something like FFVII:AC . That'll bring something new in MGS series.

I doubt that it will be a prequel with Big boss as the protagonist. Because the story wouldn't just make sense. He was featured in the PSP games as the main character, but in the MGS storyline it won't make sense. Since everything was explained in MGS4, it wouldn't do them too much good to make a game where he is a protagonist in anything other than the portable ops games. Being that [spoiler] he was asleep during the timeframe of MGS2 and MGS4 until the end where he finished the story [/spoiler] I don't see how that would do them any good. They should just make a movie, and a good one.

i think he say it was the last in the series, and he is moving on to other games, maybe i will come back to MGS but i don't know

What i will like to see is, the company picking up Zone of Enders again, For those who had play this on ps2 will know what i mean. there was a leak that they are making ZOE3 last year or something but havn't heard any thing yet

MAke a prequel starring The Boss. None of her missions have been shown, and she has so much unexplored story.

If MGS5 was a remake of MG1 and MGS6 was a remake of MG2 I would be happy. I would also be happy with a brand new Big Boss type of game, but since the whole Patriots story is over it would be kind of hard to continue along the same lines. Oh well, I'm sure whatever Kojima makes will be amazing.

Yeah i read this story before and i have to say that i am very excited about the idea

Really looking forward to hearing more about this.... either way it, we won't hear much about

really for another year or so... MGS4 took forever to make and creating a new storyline section to fit

into the MGS story is going to be sorta difficult

If they make a Metal Gear with Big Boss as the protaginast, i hope they make it where he leaves the patriots.

No, Zero gave him the code name Naked Snake at the beginning of MGS3, and there was a reason why he got it. He didn't have that code name before MGS3.

Anyway I'll be happy to play as Big Boss again.

[spoiler] remember when Big Boss said : if zero isn't eliminated, everything with happen again. It's a cycle.Something along those lines, but I think Kojima should explore that. They discover that not all of the patriots were killed, patriots are rised again with another name, someone like Snake is needed and they clone Solid Snake [/spoiler]

yeah, i enjoyed mgs3's more simplified and focused storyline. i like the historical theme too. the modern mgs games are seriously convoluted and mgs3 was probably the best story so far. i would like to see a prequel very much

THATS INSANE DUDE, It'd mean remaking the exact same plot line again o_o, in other words milking the Mgs series!
