I just caught the new GC trailer for MGS4. Seriously. WTF? I was very interested in this game until I saw this. Monster chicks? Really? Maybe I was under the wrong impression. I thought this was espionage under the umbrella of war with occasional giant f*&$ing robots, which is cool. Not transformed monster girls howling and running amuck. And I'm all for amuckage! It just seemed cheezy. Immature, maybe. All while trying to be philosophical. Freud and monster chicks don't mix, man.

Sure, the game is probably going to be great, but I have to say it looked weird to me. Downgrade for me.

Here come the MG fanboys who are going to RAAAAAAAAAAAGE!!!!!

I guess you never played the other MGS games. This isn't very surprising and you are only pointing out your oppinion.

truth be told, MGS4 didn't totally feel like MGS until the new bosses were revealed. Once they were shown, I said, "All right. There we go. ;) "

I think Kojima went a little too far this time. I enjoyed the prior MGS games (Snake Eater not so much) and all the bosses had a pseudo-realistic basis. These are just a bit too much and I have really lost a lot of interest.

I'm sure they will come up with a good explanation as to why they are monsters. I didn't really give it away, all he said was "War changes us all" which is very general.

Don't lie. When the game releases, you and the many others who have either a slight or great interest will pick this game up.

I played the one the came out on GameCube (don't laugh), and remember it being good. The memories are hazy as to the content of that game (it was college). Anyway, I'm sure the game will be (pardon the pun) a monster hit, and the posts I've read show me that I'm just out of touch with the series. What' s important is that the fans are satisfied.

You said it yourself, that doesn't have to do with the game quality. If some ppl are put off by something trivial like that, then too bad.

The villans look cool but that second part of the trailer was awful. The the terrible lines and the stupid acting. If I would of seen those things I would of hight-tailed my turban wearing butt so fast the sand would turn to glass! It was just all sloppy and did not have the effect that they were hoping for...bt this is just cutscenes....the game will probably be great....I hope.

I just caught the new GC trailer for MGS4. Seriously. WTF? I was very interested in this game until I saw this. Monster chicks? Really? Maybe I was under the wrong impression. I thought this was espionage under the umbrella of war with occasional giant f*&$ing robots, which is cool. Not transformed monster girls howling and running amuck. And I'm all for amuckage! It just seemed cheezy. Immature, maybe. All while trying to be philosophical. Freud and monster chicks don't mix, man.

Sure, the game is probably going to be great, but I have to say it looked weird to me. Downgrade for me.

Here come the MG fanboys who are going to RAAAAAAAAAAAGE!!!!!

dude have you actually played a MGS game....hah clearly not, this kind of stuff is not new, non-the-less this game will rock i love the deep story in this kojima knows what a game really needs

Dude, they are just bosses. Its essentially the same game you thought it would be, a war torn battlefield you have to sneak through with an occasional gekkou. Those are just bosses, which comprise what, an hr of the game?

Yeah the story, dialogue and characters in the MGS series never tried to imitate a Hollywood style film, but rather cheesy anime. Thats why most cut scenes look like a Dragon Ball Z episode. RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGEEE!!!!!!!!!!!LMFAO:lol:

I bet you have never even played an mgs game before judging by that comment. The mgs series is known for having one of the best stories and cutscenes in video gaming. Im sorry if you cant use just a bit of imagination and when you see anything unreal it turns you off.

Close but no Cigar. Her name was Fortune and actually Ocelot put something on her that made the bullets do that, so she would think she was "Lucky". Then after he took it from her and shot her she deflected a full Arsenal gear onslaught for real. Que thestandard action movie one liner by Snake "Looks like she really was lucky after all" or something of that nature. So it turns out she really did have those powers. Also right after that Liquid took over Ocelots boday because he had been dormant in his arm all that time. Not fantasy?I don't Know what world you are living in, but stuff like that does not happen in Arizona where I live..

Sorry to shoot down your theory.

Exactly. Topic creator, I don't mean to sound intolerant, but if you'd played all the previous Metal Gear Solid games (which, by law, you should have if you're at all interested in MGS4), you'd know that these kinds of bosses were to be expected. All the weird tentacles, the mind control, the goofy flying creatures, the robots, the people screaming their own name -- it's normal in MGS. Another thing to understand is that this is basially just one big summation of all the bosses from the previous games, from their names and abilities to even their personalities. Really, you should go and play them all!

Fortune never had powers buddy. After Ocelot turned off her device, she dodged all those missles by pure luck. That was the point.

and for the rest of you, get some imagination. Honestly, it's bosses like these that make games fun. Not to mention, in MGS they are probably symbolic for something more meaningful.

its the lame COBRA UNIT all over again

i loved foxhound and dead cell cause they had great backstories and good dialogue

cobra unit went around yelling their codenames and the only cahracter with good story was the boss

ebauty and the beast looks just as lame as the cobras yelling their stupid names

tidus222

They don't yell their names. Raven yelled "Show me your rage" to Snake, the Wolf howls, Octopus Laughs and says something when she leaves, and Mantis didn't say anything.
