Tried your hand at the demo that came out this past weekend on the PSN for Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker? Wished that it was in English? Don't worry, you're getting exactly that. Yes, there will be an English demo, thank goodness.

Apart from Capcom's official announcement at last year's E3, and the subsequent revelation that David Hayter will be hopping on board, not much has been known or heard about the movie adaptation of Lost Planet (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC). Thanks to Jun Takeuchi, we're learning more about the project, and what do you know, it won't be following the game's storylines after all.

Hypothetically speaking, what do you think of a Metal Gear Solid movie that has Christian Bale and Daniel Craig in it as Solid and Liquid Snake, respectively? Would you go see it? You may have to decide soon, because if this poster is the real deal then that's just what we'll see in 2011.

To many a gamer, the name David Hayter rings a bell. Most of us would know him as the voice behind Solid Snake in the MGS series. But he's also got his screenwriting career under his belt (X-Men, Watchmen). In this video interview, he reveals that Hollywood politics may have blasted his chances for penning the MGS movie, however, he's looking rather optimistic.

Being one of Konami's biggest studios, Kojima Productions has some big plans for 2009. What are they up to? What's big man Hideo Kojima working on? And more importantly, are David Hayter and the rest of the gang still willing to work on more Metal Gear games despite some (questionable) psychological trauma?

So, what are David Hayter and the rest of the MGS voice cast doing after their stint with Konami? Oh, I don't know... maybe dealing with all the trauma they've been through as characters in the game? Yeah, you best believe it: voice acting may have psychological effects on the actor. See the video proof in the full article.

Snake? SNAKE?! SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!

Capcom has announced over in the E3 their plans to create a movie based on Lost Planet (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC). As if that's not interesting enough, the company also detailed that the writer in charge of this production is somebody plenty of you should be very familiar with. Here's a clue: He's a chain-smoker, wears an eye patch, and has a strange interest in cardboard boxes. More details are available in the full article.

It's quite sad that the Japanese won't be having a launch party in honor of Konami's opus, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, but for those who live in the US, the show must go on. Konami Online's Brandon Laurino announces the schedule of the Metal Gear Solid launch events for three locations, and you can check them out in the full article.

If you get your PlayStation Network purchases from Japan, then there's probably one game out now that you're dying to pick up. That's right folks: Metal Gear Solid is now out, and you can pick it up by going to the PSN Store. More after the jump!

For many of us, this isn't really such a big deal. For the purists and hardcore-fans, however, the topic of whether a localized game should be subbed or dubbed is a factor that can potentially alter the entire play experience. We'll be taking a look at this matter a littler further, by way of a feature piece. Check it out in the full article.
