MGS5 Has A Shot At Launching In 2013?
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the PatriotsHideo Kojima appears to be working on several projects at once. It's widely assumed that one of them is the anticipated Metal Gear Solid 5.
But when might it arrive? Well, depending on how you interpret the following quotes, you could be encouraged or disappointed...because it almost sounds possible to see MGS5 on store shelves towards the latter half of next year.
During a Silent Haven interview, Silent Hill 4 voice and motion-capture actor Eric Bossic said he's working with Kojima on a "future Metal Gear game" but in fact, the game is "a long way off." Said Bossic:
"I am working on a future Metal Gear, not to be released until next year summer at the earliest, if not later then that. I'm doing motion capture only. I can 100% say my voice will not be involved in this. I don't even know what the title is, they are all very secretive and sometimes even the scenes I act out I don't even know the full story, because they want to keep it secret.
I suppose it is fine to mention I am working on it, everybody knows Kojima is making something now, and I posted the photo on my page here with him. The only thing is that I can't ever answer any questions about it or talk about, not for sometime."
Yes, Kojima and Co. have been awfully quiet about any and all new projects, but it's nice to hear that work is being done. We just wonder what might happen if MGS5 doesn't launch next year...would it then arrive for the next generation? How's about that for a PS4 launch title?

Personally, I think Konami wouldn't want to release a blockbuster like MGS5 to a smaller sized PS4 early adopter base. I believe they'll wait at least a year or two after PS4's launch before making a move in order to reach a broader pool of gamers. I see Sony as the one who will try to cough up the big games early on to promote their own platform, like they did with Uncharted for Vita.

If it's exclusive then it would be best as a PS4 launch title. Got to push that system into living rooms so we don't have a repeat of last time.

Though, I am curious if it's a new game or a remake of Metal Gear and/or Metal Gear 2... whatever it may be, I KNOW it's gonna be epic!

I have said many times I don't want a MGS5, well I certainly don't want a story set after MGS4 that is for sure (Part of the reason I am not excited for Rising anymore.). To use cinema as a current example, look at the Bourne films. I generally consider them to be a good trilogy, now you have Legacy coming along starring a completely different actor. I generally don't mind Jeremy Renner but it just feels so separate even if it is related to the series.
As for MGS5, should it even be a 'Solid' title. I am hoping it will be finishing off Big Bosses story Or even completely overtaking everything that happened in PO & PW. Which I really consider to be a step below the standard for the series. Capitalizing it with a '5' would sort of signify that for me if it is a story with Big Boss. But we'll just have to wait less than 10 days to find out :)

The very thought of that makes me grin from ear to ear.
Sorry all, MGS5 can wait if it means this man can resurrect SH with his own memorable touch. Add Team Silent & music composer Akira Yamaoka & you have a done deal. Please, let me dream.

GT and MGS have the most pulling power for playstation, if $ony could manage to release both MGS5 and GT6 within a few months of ps4s release they would clean up big time!
however said titles and said companies are known for taking their sweet time, so i will be very shocked if this actually happens!
