More Metal Gear games on the way
May fill in gaps in Big Boss's background.
Ryan Payton, assistant producer on Metal Gear Solid 4, has confirmed there will be further instalments in the series - though they won't star Solid Snake.
"There are some misunderstandings that this is the final Metal Gear game," he told 1UP. "But it's really the final chapter of the Solid Snake story. That's all."
Payton continued, "I'm happy we could wrap up Snake's story in MGS4." So what might future MGS games be about? Well, there's "still a lot of room for filling in the gaps as far as Big Boss is concerned", according to him.
There are also plans afoot for the future of Metal Gear Online. "We're working on a handful of new maps, skills and rules that we're bug checking at the moment," Payton said. "A lot of the stuff is pretty far along. It's not going to be too long before people are going to start seeing screenshots of the new stages... By the time you're tired of the maps that come in the game, it'll probably be around the time we'll be bringing out the new ones."
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is out now. What do you think of it, Oli?

You little s**t stirrer Ellie, nice one!
I'm happy they are continuing the games as 4 has an incredible engine, but can someone please keep a tight hold on Hideo and his cutscenes this time if he is involved (oh, and PLEASE no Raiden!)
Also new MGSO maps! \o/

A lot of gamers havent played the two important events in MSG history, and it would be worth reinterpreting and to experiences hand on the interactions between Gray Fox, Snake and Big Boss.
I can see it in my head and hope Konami can too!!

There's plenty more leverage in the Metal Gear world to tell other stories, featuring different characters- so why not do that? Start something new, something fresh. They can always incorporate other chaarcters as cameos...
