That a publisher would show non-target visuals in order to build excitement?

You clearly sound misinformed.
Kojima said that was running on a PC with similar specs to PS3/360. And the final version will look pretty similar to what we saw there, might be a bit downgraded though, as I'm pretty sure MGS4 didn't look anywhere near as good as it's first showing. That's what we have the PC version for! (hopefully).
Fox Engine has to be targeted for next gen with the ability to scale down for current gen, because who the heck wastes a crapload of money for systems that will be replaced in a years time.
Anyways, the demo looked good but nothing super impressive like star wars 1313. I'm just excited for more Metal Gear.

Stop using big words
I missed the news... demo, as in, PLAYABLE demo? Is that the one that's done by Mikami?
Fake edit: Looks like not. Also, while looking at Rising stuff, I saw this:
A Mikami game running on PC would've been fucking incredible. Imagine Vanquish at 1080p running at 60fps. FUUUUCK
Nope. It's a Cold War era MGS, made by Kojima's team. Seems to be set after Peace Walker.
MGS Rising isn't a mikami title though!
Also I'm pretty sure Konami stated they might release a PC version of MGS : Rising. However it won't be out day-one with the console versions.
Oh yeah and I agree with the sentiment you have RandomVince. Star wars 1313 looked like shit. (graphics aside).

(graphics aside).That was my original suspicion, and I was planning on not returning if that was the case, but I have been swayed.
They are, they seem to forget words have different meanings and uses in different cultures, even within the same language. Look at the word "fanny", Aussies and Brits know what I'm talking about, but the yanks don't have a clue wearing their 'fanny packs'.
Who the heck was talking about gameplay or IP? I was talking purely about graphics.
It may be the SW filter, but even the visuals didnt really impress me. Looked like typical sterile bland SW environments combined with typical sterile bland Gears of War cover based concrete blocks.
Nothing in the demo, either artistically or technically impressed me.

Well, we can just laugh at them
It was quite apparent in that thread about a coles in tassie advertising for a position, but "No Asians or Indians", and the focal point became "Australians don't think Indians are Asians? Racists!"It's a Platinum Games title, though... and Mikami is one of the heads of Platinum. Just looking now, I see that he isn't the director on the project, but that's not to say he won't be working on it.
But you're right, technically it's not a Mikami title like Vanquish was.
On the Mikami tip, is RE4 generally regarded as one of the best Resident Evils? I might hunt down a copy for PC.

You haven't played RE4? play it asap - one of the best games ever made.
You are better off playing the game on 360/PS3 or via dolphin instead of the PC version though
Wii version is best version.
Bye holycheck. Unless he wants to edit his post.
It was more the animation along with visual effects that were going on. It might have been knee high wall bullshit, But everything else was very smooth and looked great.
I still say you can't polish a turd.
I think I've "tracked down" a PC copy. I might "track down" a Gamecube copy for emulation as well, but I'd prefer to go nuts with the PC one and mods and stuff. Half the fun is getting games working (as many people on my Steam list can attest to, when the one game appears multiple times as being played within a 10 minute timespan).
Hey rep: You should watch Bob's Burgers. Aside from the tacky aesthetic, it's almost exactly like Archer, but set in a burger restaurant. It helps that H. Jon Benjamin does the voice.
Also, watch Jon Benjamin Has A Van. It's also totally fucking awesome.

Opinion noted.
What did I miss?
I thought Mikami was at Tango Gameworks now.
Well, we can just laugh at them
I wonder if anyone pointed out one of their own Baseball teams to them.
An explorer makes a mistake and it's still left uncorrected hundreds of years later.

Ah, correct. Turns out, this happened two years ago.

Yay! I am actually family free today, they left at 9am to go to the in-laws for a Fathers Day lunch. Can't go since I have this stupid assignment to finish. Plus I got like no sleep last night and I'm not feeling like being a father is an enjoyable task today :/
Spread it all out over the week with crafts from day care and music group so it was still nice! Also had my favourites last night; Chili Con Carne followed by Black Forest Cake!
Good to see you guys back! Especially now Shaneus is back, like getting the old crew back together! Makes AusGAF 8 seem like a worthwhile proposition.

Come on dude, I thought you were a fan! Hand in your man card NOW.
He has been gone since Vanquish and SotD. He has founded TWO studios in the meantime and has been bought up by Bethesda so I'm not holding my breath on much happening for him.
Also they dropped PC version when Konami realised that it is all well and good to have a PC version of a game that doesn't actually exist, so how about we worry about making a damn video game first and THEN decide if we can get it running on a PC, Vita, iOS, Pacemaker.
Also Platinum don't do PC versions, as evidenced by no Vanquish on PC
Depends on how capable the Platnium engine will be to port across in regards to cost/revenue expected. If it sells really well (i.e. triple the sales of all previous Platnium titles combined) I can see it happening.Also I'm pretty sure Konami stated they might release a PC version of MGS : Rising. However it won't be out day-one with the console versions.
Oh yeah and I agree with the sentiment you have RandomVince. Star wars 1313 looked like shit.
Also yeah 1313 was a bit disappointing, gave me those CGI Killzone 2 impressions. I guess my worry is connected to the Lucasarts output for the last 5 or so years in conjunction with an important man leaving their stables for the green pastures of Valve.
Grab the Wii version and Dolphin that thing!
Watching that new MGS video in HD proper now, yeah, I stand by that it wasn't that impressive technically compared to some of the next gen games we've seen, so I can see it running on a PS3 or 360. I'm more impressed with the direction of the scenes, like when Here's to You started playing. I'm not that excited to play as Big Boss again but oh well, at least he looks old and awesome now.

I still hate you Shaneus.
Catch of the Day have a few truckloads of pre-owned GAME stock that they received through auction (I guess). $10 games, pre-owned, $5 postage for however many you want to grab.
Noticed Red Steel 2, Pikmin, Metroid Prime 3, Day of Crisis, Geometry Wars Galaxies, Nier, PGR4, Sports Champions, Cursed Mountain, Contact (EVERYONE BUY CONTACT ON DS), Legend of the Guardians (BY GAZ!), Gunpey, $5 Wii Component Cableb (also a 360 one there), bunch of other decent titles.
Matrix Blu Ray for $22 with some extra coasters from Amazon.
PS3 Move Sharpshooter shell for $34 at MightyApe (I think those guys are the good one? FishPond bad?)

Wait, why the hate? I'm sorry for being out of touch, I've been PCing it up for a while, and Platinum/Mikami just doesn't appear on the radar as much as he used to
PS. Was just checking out Catch as I switched to GAF (funnily enough, to post about the Catch sale). Reckon that's a fallout from GAME?
BTW PGR4 is on that Catch thing? Everyone buy it! Even if you don't have a 360! I'd be tempted by some of those Wii games as well (especially NMH) but I don't have a Wii :/
Also, I've been too busy falling in love with Joanna Newsom today. Go figure.
Yeah, it was a pretty MINDBLOWING trailer. But there was nothing in that trailer that screams out next-gen to me, I easily see it running on current gen hardware around 20-30 fps at the very least.
Looking forward to dat PC version for 60fps goodness.

OMG OMG Only 2 mroe weeks until the new Pratchett book! And it looks to be a fun one! No witches! Yay!
You Persona loving people with more disposable income than me should look at thissssss. Because it looks amazing.

Twas joking!
Just got Contact, Rhythm Heaven, and Elite Beat Agents. They are supposed to be good, right
Rumour is the PC version will be GFWL (according to CVG)
To be honest, I actually like GFWL because of the achievements and I've never had any of the *issues* people have had with it.
Yeah I'm a bad person.

Lol GFWL already discussed when the thing has barely even been revealed, let alone release date or PC platform being concrete.
Contact is a really relaxing adventure RPG by Grasshopper Manufacture that felt a lot like the Mother games to me while still being its own unique think. Was shocked that I hear nothing about it on the internet.Just got Contact, Rhythm Heaven, and Elite Beat Agents. They are supposed to be good, right
EBA is one of the best games ever made - If you enjoy it import the japanese versions asap http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-9g-49-en-70-1v6e.html unfortunately it seems like ouendan 1 is OOP.Just got Contact, Rhythm Heaven, and Elite Beat Agents. They are supposed to be good, right

Thanks mate.
As hamchan and I implied before. What makes the game look so next-gen? I mean it arguably looks as good as say Uncharted 2/3 but with a more open environment. I think some of you PC people underestimate what consoles are really capable of.;p
I have no emotional stakes in the overall graphical quality of the game either way, hell for most people they really aren't any, esp since it's multiplatform unlike the previous MGS titles.
It looks good, but it doesn't look like it's out of reach of current gen hw. I dunno though, but the logo at the end of the trailer for ps3 and 360 kind of made the point.
That said, all the alleged next gen stuff shown to date (UE4, Watchdogs, SW 1313) dont look impressive either.
A bit of history though for the PC people. Metal Gear Solid 3 came out very late last gen, and was a significant leap over what MGS2 was doing at/around launch. It's not surprising at all to see KojiPro do something significant late in a hardware cycle.
Of course, we know its running on Fox Engine which is a presumably next gen engine as well as a current gen scaleable one. But the specs of the machine they were running it on was apparently Ps3/360 equivalent, and there has always been realistic product demos from the Metal Gear series.
So yeah, if Kojima says its real time, PS3/360 version, then there is no reason to doubt it given his track record.
I watched the trailer on iPad and it was pretty terribly compressed, but it did look pretty much at the limit of what this current gen is capable of. I don't know what resolution it was though. I'd say there's no way it was running on PCs comparable to current consoles if it was higher than 720p.
I do suspect they're just saying Xbox 360 and PS3 for now because their successors don't actually exist yet. When they're actually announced at E3 or whatever, they could do a magic switcheroo and it's suddenly for the new systems instead.
I suppose what's even more surprising if this is really targeted at the current gen systems is why Wii U got no support. That poor console.

Theyve always announced MGS games after the platform hosting them has been announced. PS2 was unveiled and shortly after MGS2 videos surfaced. MGS4 was similarly unveiled specifically as a PS3 game.
MGS Zeroes or whatever it ends up being called will be a PS3/360 game.
MGS Revengeance will be too.
MGS5 will be next gen.

God of War 2 was another super impressive looking game coming at the end of the generation. Happens all the time. Games at the end of the generation will look a lot better than games from the start of a generation. Developers get better as they go along people!
The media reports are stating that it is running on the equivelant of a PS3 and Konami/Kojima have repeatedly stated that the FOX engine is targetting both this generation and next generation in order to make the costs of developing the new engine feasible.

Postmodern perspectives of organization theory is fucking stupid. I feel stupid typing this stuff out. Is that my lecturers point, to make me feel stupid for typing it?
