This probably WAS one of the best updates by far, if not for the gameplay footage alone.


Can anyone identify the music used in the first movie?? It would be interesting if they used it in the game, if you ask me...

With Snake, the whole time I'm thinking "David hayter, no wait not, oh yeah it is." Colonel, too.
Mei Ling is NOT the same though.

Also, did anyone else notice, WARIO ATE THE GRENADE! ZOMG!
Mei Ling's voice actor appears to be the same one from Twin Snakes, rather than the original MGS.

It's his landing from the beginning of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. "Kept you waiting, huh"
Which makes me wonder...
Character specific entrances CONFIRMED

I, too, am having problems re-watching them.

Either too much activity or maybe the sit is just acting up?

Edit: Never mind. Got it again.

Videos aren't working for me. I'll just check after school.

This update is great! I didn't really like Lucas...

SICK NASTY UPDATE!!!

Time to start reviewing the trailer for hidden features.
We have sheilding, and did I see L-cancelling?
And I dare someone to tell me the Tornado isn't Mario's dAir now. Watch the video people.

Also, I LOVE that powerbomb Snake gives Mario. It looks like his bThrow. Sweeeeeet.
Snake doesn't look so "clunky" anymore now, huh? Still curious about that dSmash though. There's no way it's not his dB, it's too special looking to not be a special.
Powerbomb? I think thats a suplex :p

Wait...did we get two amazing updates in a row?! I'm probably still asleep aren't I.

Gameplay footage = awesome, although the game does seem a bit slower, and to me it seems easier to send people flying, like when Snake kicked Mario.

Metal Gear stage = awesome.

Extra clips = awesome and we've learned that Wario's bite poisons you, and he can..."fly".

Is that what Snake sounds like in the MGS games? It's strange, but it doesn't seem like it fits as well as I thought it would.

lol @ people saying the game looks slower.

It's not like you're going to see advanced movements in a simple promotional video, guys. The speed of simple movement and attacks seem fine to me.

And Drake3, how do you know Mario just wasn't at a high percentage? Assume much?

the electric thing snake does perhaps its a cutscene entrance for him or something during his storyline. otherwise entrances are coming back ilk be happy either way

I LOVE THIS UPDATE!

anything about Snake, and i'm ecstatic, but we got 2, and one of them had gameplay footage! we got the confirmation that all those Shadow Moses pics were of one stage, and not just an indoor and outdoor version. the "!" appears there too! and Metal Gear come to attack! this stage can't get any better...but it does!! Mic, i don't think it'll be a part of single player at all. i think it's like Fox and Falco's easter egg. you input a button sequence, and the little codec scene will pop up. still, it's very nice to hear David Hayter as Snake. but we get the rest of the Metal Gear voice actors too? AWESOME!!

plus the trailer...ohhh. so much info! the possibile confirmation of character entrances returning, Snake in his box during a match, actually snapping Mario's neck! wait, did Mario sound like he had a different voice? they're not just using samples from Mario 64 anymore! and just seeing Snake in action...

if this week continues like it is...hell, these updates alone makes this week for me

Awesome update, this week is already looking to be epic. Snake is just too awesome though, the more I see of him the more I actually want this game so I can main him. I really like how they've implemented him, and I can't wait to see other codec conversations regarding the other characters. Shadow Moses also looks amazing.

We also seem to learn a little about Wario's bite attack (possible B move?). And depending on when the Codec activates, it looks like there might be a way to actually start of as ZS Samus (I would've thought they'd happen at the start of the battle rather than during it personally, unless it's part of SE)

I'll also wonder if Snake's Time Paradox is a sign of entrances returning, though it does seem to be too cinematic for that:ohwell:

That was the most kick *** update yet. If that's just the personality they've pumped into snake, imagine what they'll do for everyone else!

This game is going to amazing.

I'm personally thinking that perhaps Snake's Japanese voice actor is doing the grunts while David Hayter is doing the cutscenes like the case was for Fox and Falco in Melee
