Metal Gear Solid, of Playstation 1 fame, is getting a brand spanking new coat of paint, and being brough back to Nintendo!

Being updated by Silicon Knights, the people who brought us Eternal Darkness, we are gonna be in for a treat!

The main good news coming from this is that Silicon Knights is a Nintendo second party developer. Thus Nintendo must finally be pushing hard to try and get some of these brilliant Playstation titles back onto its machine.

Nintendo have done this with Resident Evil, and even managed to get Squaresoft to bring a Final Fantasy game to the Cube. It's finally looking that Nintendo are screwing their head back on straight!

I can't wait!

:D

Hopefully SK will get the balance of cut-scenes to gameplay right. They made Eternal Darkness wonderfully cinematic, yet great to play.

Good choice by Nintendo/ Konami.

And SK are now big enough to handle more than one game at a time...

From Cube-Europe:

Hideo Kojima and Shigeru Miyamoto team up to release Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes!
Konami and Silicon Knights are developing an exclusive Metal Gear Solid for the Nintendo GameCube!

METAL GEAR SOLID® EXPLODES ONTO NINTENDO GAMECUBE
Konami and Nintendo Collaborate to Deliver Blockbuster Action Title to Nintendo GameCube

REDWOOD CITY, CA. - May 1, 2003 - Continuing to broaden the Nintendo GameCubeTM library, Konami and Nintendo today announced Konami will publish a new Metal Gear® adventure exclusive for Nintendo GameCube. Metal Gear Solid The Twin SnakesTM combines the thrilling story of the original Metal Gear Solid® game with the jaw-dropping graphics and unparalleled gameplay found in Metal Gear Solid® 2: Sons of LibertyTM. The game is scheduled to ship later this year in North America and Europe, followed by the Japanese launch in early 2004.

Bringing heart-pounding espionage action home to gamers, Metal Gear Solid® is one of the most highly-regarded action series ever created. Metal Gear Solid The Twin SnakesTM for Nintendo GameCube will combine stunning next generation graphics and gameplay, an epic storyline and unmatched content designed specifically for mature gamers.

Under the guidance of Konami's Hideo Kojima and Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto, Nintendo's exclusive second-party developer, Silicon Knights, is working with Konami to develop the game. Silicon Knights previously developed last year's award-winning Eternal Darkness: Sanity's RequiemTM for Nintendo GameCube.

"I am tremendously excited to introduce a unique Metal Gear Solid® experience to a new audience of gamers as well as collaborate with my mentor in game design, Mr. Miyamoto, on Metal Gear Solid The Twin SnakesTM for Nintendo GameCube," says Hideo Kojima, vice president, Konami Computer Entertainment Japan, Inc.

"Mr. Kojima and I have spoken about this project for some time, and I'm excited our ideas have matched so perfectly," adds Shigeru Miyamoto, senior managing director of Entertainment Analysis and Development Division, Nintendo Co., Ltd. "It's this shared passion for game creation that has allowed us to collaborate to bring a special Metal Gear® project exclusively for Nintendo GameCube."

Yay!!

Anyway, Twin Snakes? Does this mean what I think it means?

2 endings

save meryl, she joins you at the end and you get the infinite ammo bandana for when you start the game again

let meryl die(by submitting to the torture) and otacon joins you and you gain the stealth camo for the next game (easily the better ending, stealth camo is just so much cooler!)

this is great news. from the sounds of things, its going to be better than MGS2 since it includes the story from MGS1 but then all the good bits from MGS2...

I wonder if Shenmue will come out on the Cube... (well, we all know the Playstation2 can't handle it :P)
