Video Games - New 'Metal Gear Solid 4' Remix Trailer

"Konami has released a new trailer for Metal Gear Solid 4 and PlayFrance has the scoop. The trailer is similar to the E3 one released last year, but has a ton of additional content and has been remastered using the newest version of the MGS 4 engine, leading to a ton of little visual improvements. Animations, particle effects and over-all graphic fidelity have all definitely increased with this newest trailer - the scene where Old Snake puts the gun to his mouth, in particular, showcases some incredible lighting effects. It's great to see Konami hasn't been resting on their laurels, this new trailer shows a clear and marked improvement to a game that already looked amazing. The trailer ends with confirmation that the game will be coming out in 2007 - naysayers be damned.
The new trailer clocks in at over 13 minutes in length and what a blissful 13 minutes they are. The final scene with Raiden is incredible and worth the time investment by itself. What are you doing? Check it out NOW -- it demands your attention."

This brand new Metal Gear Solid 4 trailer shows off incredible graphical improvements. If you thought the older trailer looked sexy, wait until you see this one. With the plethora of exclusive PS3 games coming out this fall/winter, I put MGS4 aside and said, "I can wait until 2008, there's enough amazing games coming out this holiday season." But holy shit, this trailer just got me pumped beyond belief, and the fact that it says 2007 at the end is pretty fucking awesome. I'm embedding the GameTrailers version below, however you can watch it in QuickTime here, instead of the streaming flash version, though I don't think there's really a noticeable difference in quality. The version from PlayFrance above however may be slightly better quality, it certainly sounds the best and looks the best, in my opinion, if you watch it at PlayFrance. Anyway, enough rambling, enjoy the amazingness below:
