Metal Gear Solid 5 Revealed At or Before E3
According to a rumor in the latest issue of PlayStation: The Official Magazine (Issue # 018), Metal Gear Solid 5 will be announced by Konami some time in April or May. We personally think that such a major announcement would be better suited for E3, but we’d like to think PTOM knows what they are talking about.
Speculation suggests a prequel (to Metal Gear Solid 4) featuring Raiden and how he became a Cyborg Ninja, and managed to save Sunny from the Patriots, or a squad based game featuring the newly formed FOXHOUND team being led by Meryl.
PTOM also notes that MGS5 might not be directed by Kojima, but he would probably be involved in some way. They also go on to say that Kojima might have his hands full working on Max Savage, a game that was originally a dream sequence Big Boss had in MGS3.
E3 is only a few months away, so this rumored announcement may be coming much sooner than later.

wow this would be huge news
i think both those ideas thrown out sound good. Sqaud based game would hopefully be good and back story, playing as Raiden would OWN!!
When I read this I “jizzed in my pants”. lmao. Seriously though, those two ideas sound awesome and playing as Raiden would own all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This will be awesome if true.
WOW
i hope its PS3 exclusiv, and i hope Kojima works on it.
Great news…can we get a Zone of the Enders 3 announcement already though? Sheesh.
another one, jesus
Raiden?!?!?! That will get even ME excited!!!!!
PS3 Exclusive please.
Oh boy oh boy ….this would be amazing if in fact it was more than a rumor. The MGS series is one of the best out there and I have never been disappointed by any of the games. Just pure brilliance.
oh my gorsh
Really?
Bring it I loved MGS4.
I hope it’s the prequel idea.
And I really hope this is true, and announced soon.
I got my money on Metal Gear Solid 4: Sustenance (ala MGS 3: Subsistence). They always release those type of games a year after the original game. It’d be cool to see some VR type of stuff using the MGS 4 gameplay and maybe some Raiden levels. Kinda like Snake’s hidden missions in MGS 2.
Please be true. I would love either of these ideas, but I’d really love to play as Raiden (when he is a cyborg ninja). Also, please be a PS3 exclusive.
hopefully this is true!!

I doubt that this rumor is true, let see.

Huge news! I want this to be true!

I hope they keeps this game similar to the previous games and not going for a complete overhawl of the game machanics. Also it would be cool if we could play as different characters only one at a time like MGS portable ops that game was fantasic only on the ps3 it would be awsome!! Please if any other person than kojima i would have the MGS4 co-director just because he was actually going to direct MGS4 until the death threats. Anyway a new MGS or MG (who knows no solid snake) would be welcome in my book
What great news!
As long as it is a PS3 exclusive, I think we will draw more people to our side.
Praise Konami!

I think both ideas would be awesome but i am hoping to find out raiden’s story between and what happened to him between mgs2 and mgs4. i think a prequel like that would make perfect since and tie into the series nicely.

I’m not sure about MGS5 yet. I mean, I’m all for another Snake in a Metal Gear game, but I really need more information, as we all do, I’m sure. Rumors are floating that MGS5′s main character is to be Raiden, which could be cool, but I’m just not sure at this moment.
Not now, but later, hopefully much later, MG will suffer the same fate as Friday the 13th, Halloween, Final Fantasy (dirge anybody ), Police Academy, and all other things with more than say, six sequels. We have not yet seen a bad Metal Gear. We all know why, but one day there looms a Metal Gear Meh.
I have full confidence it will not be MG5.
Oh, and I will be one of the defenders of the Metal Gear Meh, ( and I LOOOVE Dirge of Cer…..)
As much as I LOVE the MGS series, I do not want another one out so soon. It will become like Final Fantasy–they have a new one, like what, every year?–boring!
The longer the wait, the more thought put into it, the better the game. I rather wait 5 years and play an awesome MGS, then wait a year and destroy my rep for it.
I want another exclusive.
really great new. i love all mgs games
i think so absolutely y that game will release only ps3
I hate to tell you guys but the most likely character in MGS5 will not be raiden. Think back to MGS1 and MGS2. The main character will be Grey Fox…
There is also from what I heard that there will be like a Metal Gear Solid movie…
MGS5 is going to be either Metal Gear Solid: Rising -_- ps i do not see a 5 anywhere and it is going to be the first MGS game on the 360 but it will be on PS3 (PC is still rumored) or MGS:Peace Walker for PSP starting Big Boss aka Naked Snake and it will have 4 player co-op awsomeness i hope it is over the internet -_-
MGS5 sounds good but i hope it is not about raiden. this all about snake and how he be came what he is. in MGS2 it was raidan it was not bad but i still played it. i hope it is about snake and finding more about his self were in MGS4 he got more info where he came from. and for you 360 fan it will not happen 360 cant take it
i’ve heard a horrible rumour that playstation has lost metal gear solid to x box please tell me this is not true
