So, what should we expect to see here today?

I ask Ryan Payton for a quote for all the excited fans reading this live blog: ´Patrick cut your hair´ is all I get. [That hair saved your life a few E3s ago, you unappreciative bastard -- PK] Ryan has to go but he promises we can talk more about what we see after the show.

Apparement IGN tient aussi un blog sur l´évenement :

While we are waiting, my lovely assistant Hiroko has been snapping pictures outside of the fanfare action figures, old limited edition sets from Japan, original packaging of Metal Gear games from the US, posters of old promotions and cover art lines the walls, along with retail standees and banners -- I´ll try and get some pictures up for you guys ASAP!

So, what should we expect to see here today? Most seem to think it will be the same narrated walkthrough of MGS4 by Mr. Kojima that he performed last week during a Japanese industry-only PS3, but also expected is the first glimpse of Metal Gear Online, a separate online multiplayer action-shooter event and another look at Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops Plus, the revised version of the recent PSP game.

11:40 p.m. -- Metal Gear is my franchise.
Ouh apparement on met les points sur les "i".

The room is almost full now; probably about 400-500 people in attendance. A couple dozen video cameras line the back wall.

Du DE-LI-RE.

The conference is planed in two parts. The first is an on stage demonstration of metal gear solid 4 and ´announcement of new Metal Gear series content," second part is industry mingling and live musical performances.

And, just now, sir Ryan Payton (former freelancer, now with Kojima Productions!) sits down next to me in his spiffy suit and mini faux-hawk and gives me soul-crushing news: no video will be allowed of either of the games shown on screen, but we will get direct feed video of MGS4, embargoed until midnight local time 15 minutes long. Phew.

But, Metal Gear Online, the other game that they will apparently show, will only be released to the public in screen shots.

Most of the guests are dressed formally in business suits, with a few of the women even wearing traditional Japanese kimonos.

A voice comes over the loudspeaker --the show is about to start

A side note some might be interested in: in the last E3 Metal Gear trailer, one figure in the fox hound group (with Meryl) remained a mystery many people were guessing it to be Raiden because of the small bit of blood hair visible from his eye slit, but...ITS NOT RAIDEN, UM DUM DAAAAA!!!!!

pour le moment a part la video relachée qui fera 15minutes rien de terrible.

on parle des decoratiosn avec tout ce qu´il y a eu (poster etc).

1ere revelation, le gars avec Meryl n´est PAS raiden.

As he leaves he stage, a video begins recounting the last 20 years of the Metal Gear series. It shows artifacts from the time the series started, 1987 pagers, old politicians and baseball stars. Now, the video begins recounting the original MSX2 Metal Gear game with interviews with magazine writers from the time talk about the game reminding us all it was Kojima very first title then in 1990. After that, the sequel came, Metal Gear: Solid Snake, also for the MSX.

1993, the PlayStation came out and the team began to experiment with 3d technology, polygons and motion capture.

pfff ils en voient des trucs
