Metal Gear - Twin Snakes Delayed, Snake Eater Trailed

Thanks to PlanetGameCube for their new story pointing out Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes has been delayed into 2004, according to Nintendo and Konami's websites. This GameCube-exclusive "remix of the PSone classic, Metal Gear Solid" also has a new, (spoiler-filled, brief synopsis available) Tokyo Game Show trailer, showcasing the in-game cinematic direction by Japanese movie director Ryuhei Kitamura. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater for PlayStation 2 also has a new Tokyo Game Show trailer (again, brief synopsis available), similar to the one shown at ECTS in London earlier in the month, and including many "scenes... seeping with James Bond flavor."

Impressions

My impressions from the trailer:

• The character models have been improved significantly
• The story has some minor changes
• There are some pretty looking cutscenes
• When using the binoculars when its snowing, snowflakes appear on the view

I'm looking forward to this remix, but I hope that you get a bit more for your money if you've already played the original. The website says that Twin Snakes will combine the best features of MGS1 and MGS2, so we'll see how it all works out.
