If there only was a way of combining PCs, gamepads and couches...

I already love the soundtrack.

Looks a lot like Bastion. Which is a good thing. :D

That certainly doesn't look as good as the original Audiosurf, especially that airjumping mechanic looked very... messy.

"Fez is a console game, not a PC game. It's made to be played on a controller, on a couch, on a Saturday morning. To me, that matters. That's part of the medium. I get so many comments shouting at me that I'm an idiot for not making a PC version. "You'd make so much more money, can't you see Meat Boy sold more on Steam?" Good for them, but this matters more to me than sales or revenue. It's a console game, on a console. End of story."[/I]

I don't get why everyone makes such a big deal out of this. We've all said things that we've regretted saying. The realities of selling games being what they are forced him to change his mind on this. Is he arrogant, and a bit of a tard? Yeah. But at least he is arrogant in the good way where he passionately says a bunch of dumb shit about things that he cares a ton about, and then has to eat some crow. He's not like that Lorne Lanning douchebag who just talks to hear himself talk.

This is actually pretty amazing.

Those were his words and his alone; I didn't make any comment at all. It's just ironic.

Amen to that.

This is probably the most effective trailer for a game I've ever seen in my entire life.

Have more Transistor.

It just gets mentioned a lot. I don't know. Fez was a really fun, interesting game. Cut the dude some slack, I say.

Maybe when he stops saying stupid things.

Completely independent of his status as a game developer, he's an arrogant self absorbed cunt.

Have you watched Indie Game: The Movie? It's a pretty interesting look into his (and other indie developers') worlds. Whilst I don't always agree with his opinions, he often raises valid points, but then tends to get a bit too "passionate" with his rants, which opens him up to a lot of criticism.

No. I have no interest in watching a ninety minute long vanity project, even if Team Meat are genuinely funny in it.

Yeah, but that's why he's fun. Dude does himself absolutely no favors. Just opens his mouth, and lets whatever his overactive autistic brain wants to say come out.

Dinosaurs!

Aw yeah, going to pick this up for the Vita.

So, Metal Gear Solid V was trailered on the GDC stream just a minute ago. Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain were both just sneak peeks of the game.

Looks awesome, though I could have done without the seventy minute techbabble.

You didn't have to sit through the 70 minute techtalk, they showed the game itself in the very beginning.

Apart from the fact they could have saved something for the end, I actually did.

The techtalk was kind of interesting anyway. I don't regret watching it.

All over it!

You're such a fangirl...

MGS5 will be very cool :)

Some new info about Killer Is Dead. Also has a bit of new gameplay in it. Very excited for summer this year, lots of cool stuff coming out.

Interview with Kojima about MGS 5.

I. Am. So. Getting. This.

METAL GEAR V

By

David Hayter

So,

Here’s a recap of events:

I have been up in Toronto, for the past eight months, directing my first film, (WOLVES -- 2013, TF1/COPPERHEART). On the December break, I came home to Los Angeles for the holidays. I heard then, that recording sessions for MG:V were being put together.

But I didn’t hear anything about whether I’d be needed or not.

So, I got in touch with someone involved in the production. We got together for lunch, and he told me that they "wouldn’t be needing me" on this game. No reason, or explanation was given beyond that.

And that was it.

I drove home through Laurel Canyon, bummed, and thinking about Snake.

To be clear, I love being a part of the world of Metal Gear. I admire its technological innovations, the gameplay, the political message of it all. But primarily, I love the fans of these games. Two grown men burst into tears upon meeting me at the Vancouver Fan Expo last year.

Now that... Is a rare and excellent role. You know you’re making an impact.

And I love doing it.

In 1998, I tried to do come up with a voice which epitomized the kind of worn, put-upon, genetically-engineered clone-soldier that I saw Snake to be. Over time, as the games became more stunning and visually sophisticated, I tried to transition that initial voice into the increasingly real environments in which Snake found himself. My level of success is up to you, but any perceived deficiencies were not for lack of hard work. I have dedicated a huge amount of time and effort into creating a compelling character, capable of expressing the myriad emotional, physical and psychological hurdles that Snake has to face.

Anyway, now it’s been fifteen years, nine games, and an enormous blast to undertake.

If it were my choice, I would do this role forever. To hear anyone else’s voice coming from Snake’s battered throat, makes me a little ill, to be honest.

But the truth is -- it’s not my choice. Any and all casting decisions are the sole purview of Hideo Kojima, and Konami itself. And that’s fair.

And I’ll get by. I am not lacking for employment on any level.

But I didn’t want anybody to think that I was intentionally abandoning them.

And know that I will miss this job, and this character, very much.

My best wishes to you all,

David Hayter

April 1, 2013

So yeah. God how obvious can you be, Hayter?

What do you mean by that?

But wouldn’t it make sense to have Richard Doyle take over at this point anyway?

I would say yes, Big Boss already has some type of "age" on him, so if Richard Doyle could pull off a "younger voice" I guess everybody would be happy.

Even if it is April 1st, didn't he (and Kojima) already confirm he's not involved in it? Then again, it's Kojima, so who knows...

Kojima stated on GDC, days ago, that he likes to make mystery in his trailer and pre-release of games, just like MGS2. So, I think it's a case of everyone chilling the fuck out and wait to see what's coming.

The only Metal Gear game that I played for more than fifteen minutes was Metal Gear.

No. I don't mean Metal Gear Solid. I said what I said and you know what I mean.

We already know you don't like good games
