Kojima Productions Confirms MGS 4 Demo
Liked what you saw coming out of TGS? You could be playing it soon.
The din at the Tokyo Game Show, held earlier this month, was mostly deafening, but still people managed to gush to one another about the Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots demo on the show floor. That excitement could soon be coming home, with the news that Konami is working on a public demo for the game.
"As of tomorrow, we're going to start working on the English demo," Kojima Productions' Ryan Payton said, according to a report at quasi-official PlayStation blog Three Speech.
He added: "Anything I say beyond what I'm going to say is going to incriminate me and people are going to know what I'm hinting at."
Intrigued? You're not alone. We went straight to Konami's PR agency to find out more about this cryptic hint of things to come but the company has not yet come back to us.
The natural expectation is that Konami will release a version of the demo that it was showing off at TGS, but that has not yet been confirmed.
