I know this is the PS2 forum but i just wanted to know why this game hasn't got alot of antisapation, i dont have a GC but i was confused why a MGS game would have such a low antisapation level, knowone has talked about it, is it good or is it just a pants game to get PS2 owners pumped up for MGS: Snake Eater.

Its a remake ofthe original Metal Gear game with completely re-done cinematics, a new them tune, all the gameplay elements from Metal Gear 2 (i.e. holding up guards for dog tags, first person mode etc) and some spanking visuals using a modded Metal Gear Solid 2 engine. It has all the makings of a true classic with the 2 greatest games developers in the world as well as Silicon Knights one of the up and coming giants of the game industry.

It stays true to Metal Gear as its more or less an exact copy of the original so yes on that basis alone it will be better than the sequel which had mor than its fair share of forgettable moments. Whether it will be better than Snake Eater is unknown, if Konami revert back to the classic gameplay from the original and cut down slightly on cinematics then Snake Eater could end up being an excellent game. On the other hand they could do a Metal Gear Solid 2 on us and change the elements which make Metal Gear special with poor level design and a story which faded dreafully in the middle only to pick up for a breath taking ending.

How Metal Gear 3 ends up is anyones guess, for now though Twin Snakes will be the best Metal Gear game available.

This is the first game on the GC that has actually made me quite jealous that i'm missing out on it. It seems to be a really good remake and if i can find a friend with a gamecube and a copy of this when it comes out i'll probably be moving in with them until i complete it.

Why?
Im just asking a question?
Oh, is it because your a GC owner and your jealous,if so, please dont be, i think the GC has loads of better features than PS2 but i also think the PS2 has loads of better features than the GC.

It has had a lot of anticipation its just that the GameCube isn't as mainstream or widespread as the PS2. Any half decent game on the PS2 gets hyped up which is half the reason why some GameCube games are completely dismissed. This will be the complete grand daddy of the Metal Gear series and I have been looking forward to this for a very long time.
