"Shigeru Miyamoto reveals that he's working on an unnamed MGS title. But what is it?
It's an old chestnut of a rumour that Metal Gear Solid, in some form, will appear on Gamecube. However, the rumour has come to fruition with Shigeru Miyamoto himself making a statement to the Italian gaming press to that effect.
Miyamoto is in Europe on a Zelda promotion tour and has already revealed titbits of info on Nintendo games - such as a new game in the works that uses the same game engine as Wind Waker, with ideas that had to be cut from that game making it into this new unnamed project (we think it has to be a Zelda game, although Miyamoto wouldn't confirm this). So it's in keeping with his tour to drop these little bombshells here and there.
Nintendo and Metal Gear are no strangers, with the first two games in the series appearing some years ago on NES and a MGS title appearing on Game Boy Color.
We spoke to Nintendo and they confirmed that Miyamoto is indeed working with Konami on a MGS title but wouldn't reveal any more than that. So we're still in the dark about whether the game will be a port or a brand spanking new title. However, for some time now the rumour mill would have us believe that a Gamecube remake of the original NES is on the cards.
Whatever the case, MGS on Cube is great news and we'll keep you in the know about any further developments."
Could this be the best thing ever?
Either I'm living on totally different plain to you, or the PS2 is the casual gamers choice.
E.g the majority of games have very little depth and are more about pick up and play value.

Is that why GBA is the fastest selling console ever?
Is that why it sells by the sh-- load?

It was decent.
Not really good, and I sold it fairly after I got it, but it was fair enough.
It is now being re-sold again, along with most of my PS2 games. YeY!

But we want a decent game...
And if it's as good as MGS2, then that'll be yet another poke in the eye for Sony.
Bwehahehaheheeeeeeee! Ahem.
When none of your points have any back up evidence what so ever?
> What about Ape Escape 2? That has soul to the extreme.
It hasn't actually been released has it? How can you tell.
And Bonus needs to wake up and realise that only morons like Belldandy measure success by how popular it is. You're sad and pathetic.
