What’s this all about then? Today, a new website was launched by Konami that seems to hint towards the next step forward in the Metal Gear Solid franchise. All that is on the site is an ambiguous green logo, with words simply saying ‘A NEXT METAL GEAR IS…’. The image is green, and incorporates a circular logo that doesn’t look a million miles away from the power button on Microsoft’s Xbox 360. Surely that can’t be a hint to a possible Xbox 360 version of MGS – can it?
A couple of years ago, an un-named member of the hmv.com games team *accidentally* set up a pre-order screen for Metal Gear Solid 4 on Xbox 360. This led to all sorts of rumours on games forums and mass hysteria on some gaming websites, as people took it as confirmation that a 360 port of the game was in development. Even a few Xbox 360 magazines picked up on it, but we were quick to put a statement out saying it was put on the site in error. However, with the launch of this new site, who knows, maybe it wasn’t such an error after all. Watch this space, Solid fans…
