A new hint has come across the Kojima website. An image of the MGS boss, SNAKE is now visible with the addition of new letters, P, R and S. So a new Metal Gear Solid title seems pretty much official.

If you have been to Kojima’s project site lately, you will now see an image of the boss, Snake flashing occasionally in the background. So it is pretty much solid to say that another Metal Gear Solid title is in the works, most likely Metal Gear Solid 5 (considering the 5 E 3 9 clue).

    This has caused such a stir, I will just wait to see at E3 what is announced.

    It looks like another prequel. I hope so. Another forward addition to the story would make it quite dry.

    Hopefuly something that takes place post Portable Ops.

      Eh, Portable Ops pretty much set the path straight to Metal Gear, IMO (especially Snake's last lines). Any more prequels and you're risking giant plot holes...and it's a miracle that MGS's storyline barely has any with its HUGE storyline.

    Could easily be the Sub______ to Metal Gear Solid 4. The new face could easily be a Octocamo design. Prehaps a multiplatform title, also.

    I tend not to assume anything when someone like Kojima has his hands in it.

      The interview in the new Famitsu mag confirms it's a new Metal Gear, so something...

    It doesn't appear to be MGS4, but aside from that I have no idea

    SNAKE HAS HIS EYEPATCH ON THE OTHER SIDE, DUDES.

    That's Big Boss.

        Did you play MGS4?

        Snake always wears the Solid Eye on the opposite eye to this.

          Solid eye =/= Eyepatch.

          It covers his eye, thus it is an eye patch.

          The point is, Solid and Solidus have 'stuff' covering their left eye whilst Big Boss has his right eye covered.

          It patches over his eye. It's an eyepatch. Just because he can use it to hax the game doesn't change that fact.

          So if i tape a camera to MY eye, i can call it an eyepatch too?

          Haha, i'm just messing you guys around, i'm not really like that xD

          Of course you could, tape a scale model of Donkey Kong, still an eyepatch

    What Logo is that on his headgear? I recall him having the FOX emblem there before.

      Apparently it's of Pangaea angled to look like a skull with a motto above it.

      I'll find a pic.

      EDIT: Motto is 'Militaires sans Frontieres'.

          The Foreign Legion is part of the French millitary that has personal that are not French but server for France and are commanded by French commanders.

          Why do you think he's in the French Military?

          I don't, I'm just replying to you saying why would he be in the millitary, and as the motto is French(Soldiers without borders)Military officers without frontiers) its a possibility.

          I know, it's just the way Gamegrep sets out replies.

          Les Enfants Terribles is French too, so I don't think it has anything to do with the French themselves.

    It'd be cool if they made a spin-off series where you play as Big Boss, going around causing troubles.

    Crap, I was seriously crossing my fingers for a The-Boss-During-WWII prequel.

    Could easily be a REMAKE of Metal Gear, or Metal Gear 2
    Heres hoping.
