So!
Kojima Productions'
"NEXT" hype machine countdown... leads to ANOTHER countdown, LOL.
But at least we know SOME specific stuff now. :P
For instance, Big Boss's face can be seen fading in and out of the stormy background, now.
Could it be that there's Metal Gear Portable Ops 2 coming up? Honestly, I'd really want to see the Portable Ops storyline carried over to a console... for the PS3, specifically.
Minutes after the second countdown, someone posts a Famitsu scan... that contains Raiden's face fading in and out of the stormy background. The plot thickens! It all makes sense now! Raiden is... "The Lightning In The Rain".
The link was promptly taken down (courtesy of Konami/KojiPro ninjas, probably), but a friend of mine uploaded the pic onto his photobucket. :D
RAIDEN! So what could this all mean? A young Big Boss and cyber-suit Raiden makes NO sense, considering they don't exist on the SAME timeline. So this almost means that it ISN'T Metal Gear: Portable Ops 2.
COLONEL, WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!
