Master Chief Rules!!!

Moby Dick's webpage looks kinda dodgy.

CEO of the studio is Joakim Mogren.

Joakim = Anagram for Kojima

Mogren = Project OGRE

Kojima was at the VGA's.

Trailer guy looks a lot like Big Boss.

Metal Gear Solid V

Look at The Phantom Pain logo and the chopped out bits.

Oh, you think darkness is your ally. You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn’t see the light until I was already a man. By then, it was nothing to me but BLINDING!

I hope it's not.
Phantom Pain looked like some -blam!- sicknasty mix of The Suffering, Heavy Rain, and Indigo Prophecy. Having it be a Metal Gear game ruins it in my eyes.

The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown

Yep.
Kojima is just being Kojima.

The name's Ian, Game Designer at Whisper Game Studios, very off-and-on Bungie.net visitor and avid Bungie fan overall. Message me if you wish.

Ehem

Watch the trailer again and do it yourself.

NVM, got 2 upped.

so what, there's Rising, Ground Zeroes, AND MGS5 now?

My head is full of feck. I love MGS dearly, but this is getting as bad as call of duty!

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I didn;t understand the trailer, it reminded me of Inception.

Kojima was going to name Metal Gear Solid 2 Metal Gear Solid 3. The canonical order of this series is 3, 5, 1, 2, 4. Someone survives by having their arm grafted onto another body except it wasn't really them but it was because nanomachines.

Just don't bother trying to make sense of it.

Kojima is doing Ground Zeroes and MGS5, MGR is being developed by Platinum. Ground Zeroes was announced as a prequel to MGS5 anyway, meaning they were likely both started around the same time. There were three years between the MGS4 trailer and its release, there will probably be a similar amount of time between the trailer and MGS5's release.

I've never really played MGS, but are flying flaming whales and weird black spectral ghosts normally in these games? Because I'm really hoping its a psychological-horror...

Maybe it is.

Each MGS game has had a different flavor. MGS1 was a gritty modern military game, MGS2 was an existential post-modern mindfv.ck, MGS3 was a parody / love letter to '60s spy fiction, etc...

MGS5 could very well be psychological horror. Kojima is kind of insane like that.

Note that the guy who presented the game pointedly called it "insane," and the text blurbs during the trailer were pretty freaky as well, with questions such as "Is this real?" and "Am I dreaming?"

Seems to make sense. Except Kojima is crazy. Here's what I'm seeing: Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes is the prequel to Metal Gear Solid 5... which we will play at the beginning of Metal Gear Solid 5.

Metal Gear Solid 5 is Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain. Two games. Two phantoms born from FOX.

I doubt they would put a major MGS release on that sinking ship.
