Anticipated Upcoming Titles

Here are some summary's and references to some very anticipated soon-to-be-released Games.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Platforms: Playstation 3
Publisher: Konami
Release Date: Q1 2008


MGS 4 marks the debut of the series on the PS3. The game is set five years after Sons of Liberty with appearances from many characters such as Meryl Silverburgh, Otacon, Raiden, Vamp, and the player controlling a much older Solid Snake. While the games predecessors had a huge focus on Stealth and Espionage, MGS 4 has taken a “no place to hide” approach where Snake is caught in the middle of a war between two groups. Although many new features such as the camouflage upgrades and the “Solid Eye,” will keep the feeling of stealth intact.
