There's a new Platinum game hidden in the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake that's actually a remake of a rework of a Zone of the Enders 3 prototype

Crossing alternate timelines

Did you cognize that the archetypal Metal Gear Solid 3 connected PS2 had a reworked Zone of the Enders 3 prototype hidden successful it? I didn't. The concealed minigame successful question is "Guy Savage", a barebones hack-and-slasher featuring hook swords, bestial transformations and zombie coppers. It's framed arsenic a imagination of Naked Snake's - triggered by a operation of torture and an unhelpful notation to Dracula from vigor interaction Para-Medic during a codec speech earlier saving.

The archetypal Guy Savage was directed by long-time Metal Gear Solid writer Shuyo Murata. The dreamy minigame returns successful Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, an Unreal Engine remake which launches adjacent week. It's a batch glossier this time, however, due to the fact that the caller mentation has been contracted retired to Bayonetta workplace PlatinumGames. They've gone to municipality connected the visuals, trading the aged jailhouse backdrop for a moonlit graveyard, though the spinning and gouging looks beauteous overmuch arsenic before. Here's a video of the PS2 version, and here's immoderate footage of the updated 1 from Gamespot.

Learning astir Guy Savage gives maine the heebie jeebies, somehow. Delta Snake Eater is Konami's latest bid to amusement that Metal Gear Solid has a aboriginal aft Hideo Kojima, but it's besides a fawning tribute to the guy, a cautious recreation of each eccentric flourish that took basal nether his eye, whether it genuinely came from Kojima oregon no.

As I attempted to articulate past August, Delta Snake Eater feels alien than the mean blockbuster remake task due to the fact that Kojima has built up a marque for bespoke designer's asides - superb oregon silly titbits calved of Kojima's ain proudly brandished instrumentality obsessions, that make a feeling of closeness to the auteur, adjacent if they were executed by 1 of his underlings.

Konami person extracted each those wonky fossilised organs and sent them disconnected to beryllium rehydrated and plumped up, past pushed them backmost into the game's assemblage portion grafting connected caller skin. In the lawsuit of the Guy Savage, the fossilised organ is besides the aborted stub of another game, the Zone of the Enders threequel Konami cancelled successful 2013. Apparently, Kojima wanted the minigame to beryllium Gradius initially, but decided an archetypal crippled would beryllium better.

It's conscionable weird! Video games are weird! They are the eventual haunted houses. This is astir apt the lone happening I've discovered astir Delta Snake Eater that earnestly interests me. We'll hopefully person a reappraisal ourselves earlier the remake's merchandise adjacent week, connected 28th August.
