MGS4 In Closee Shave Shocker

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is to feature a shaving mini-game. Well, maybe anyway.
According to reports, the latest issue of US magazine EGM splurges how dev star Hideo Kojima has let slip the wacky info that we may witness Solid Snake’s beard grow during the course of the game. Wow, and we’re pretty sure this feature would only be possible thanks to the power of PS3, which would even allow Snake to whip out his stealth razor – with in-built micro-missile launcher, retinal scanner and tooth brush – and keep his whiskers firmly under control.

Although the mini-game stuff appears to be a bit of speculation, the beard growing (and shaving) looks like it’ll feature as long as there’s time to implement it. Apparently, the feature was actually considered for previous games in the series but never made it in. Shame about that really.

An additional interesting MGS 4 detail touched on included the possibility of Metal Gear Solid 3’s healing and camouflage elements appearing in modified form. But it’ll be far removed from the last title, Kojima reminding us that Snake’s caught up in near-future war and won’t be chasing down the local wildlife. No frogs croaking it in this game, then.
