New secret weapon revealed!!!!!!
Only highlight if you wish to know!!!!
[Show spoiler]
Shooting into the crowd with it causes a huge whirlwind of a tornado that knocks huge groups of enemies out and spreads copious amounts of ammo out all over the place allowing you to run around and gather your stores for later.But, such things come at a price and the Tanegashima is by far the most expensive weapon in the game, so be sure to save your pennies!
While he made sure to skip cutscenes to make sure that he wouldn't spoil plot points, he highlighted a number of little secrets and touches that some players might not have been aware of, and we thought we'd share a few of them. For example, he highlighted the shaking of the DualShock controller reveal aspects of cutscenes you wouldn't be aware of, as well as removing your Octocamo. In addition, he pointed out that if a player sees a particular camouflage pattern that they like, they can automatically save that design for use at a later time. However, not all of the camo appears to be as safe as it seems. Kojima showed off the scene where Snake grabs the groin of the statue to blend into the stonework as a patrol passed by. Unfortunately, when he grabbed it a second time, his grip crumbled to pieces in his hand, leaving Snake in a precarious position.

In fact, Kojima pointed out a number of facts related to the stress gauge which hadn't been fully released before, such as the fact that Snake's stress meter goes up much more when he's near smelly items like garbage cans. It also spikes when he's in direct sunlight – he is used to sneaking missions – so that can seriously worry him as he moves through the environments, which can affect his performance.

Kojima took these opportunities to customize his weapons, highlighting how adjustable the weapon system is by manipulating the M4 custom with a grenade launcher, laser scope and a flashlight. In fact, he made sure to point out that the flashlight is particularly effective in dazing soldiers by flashing the light in their eyes, stunning them for a few seconds so Snake can take them out. For brute force, however, you can always fire the grenade launcher attachment and blast them through the air. There was a downside to that attachment in that it wasn't particularly precise. To that end, Kojima showed off the XM25 grenade launcher, which is the most precise launcher in the world right now. It calculates the distance to a target, so a player can aim a bit high and allow the trajectory of the grenade to hit its target every time. For instance, he aimed at a soldier that was taking cover behind a balcony. The XM25 calculated the distance to the balcony, Kojima aimed a little higher, and the grenade took out the soldier comfortably.

but Kojima pointed out the use of a 30 gig iPod that Snake can use during battle to listen to music tracks that he finds scattered around levels. For example, one of the songs he found during his mission unlocked the original Metal Gear theme, which Snake could load and play during the game. Any loaded tracks will replace ambient sound or music during the game, and Kojima pointed out that they will have a download feature to let you add new music as well.
I'm just hoping that MGO will have the online settings improved so that I can get into the game, I don't want to host the game, I want to jump into it.
Apparently Metal Gear Online has a screenshot taking feature.
Great video post. Exciting!
I can hardly wait to play this game! It is really going to show the world what the PS3 can really do! And online is going to be a blast!
Sweeeeeeeeet
I am so looking forward to this!
I just pre-ordered the MGS headset too!! I can't wait!
Anyone know if you can have a bluetooth device registered to a cellphone AND the PS3?
That all depends on the Bluetooth device. Some have a memory that can store up to 4 syncronized devices. Most of them only allow for one at any given time though. Also, for those thinking of getting a second headset for when the Bluetooth is charging, you might want to consider a USB. The PS3 will only allow one Bluetooth headset synced at a time. So, you will have to close the game and change XMB settings in order to activate the second one.
Holy Moly!!! And I have a feeling that the game-only version didn't pre-sell all that well because of the overwhelming want for these bundles. Now that they have sold out officially, do you all think that it will be mayhem and waiting lists to try and get a pre-order copy? I certainly hope so!
Thankfully I'm already set with my game-only pre-order.
