Metal Gear Solid movie coming, care of Columbia Pictures

4.8
You'll have to be more specific in your snide commentary the next time you think to call Metal Gear Solid a movie. There will be a proper film based on the popular Konami property, said X-Men and Spider-Man producer Avi Arad, who announced the project at a special Metal Gear Solid 25th anniversary event in Japan.

Metal Gear Solid designer and figurehead Hideo Kojima hinted at a film project back in March, suggesting that the franchise in its current state wouldn't be quite compatible with Hollywood. The extent of his participation is currently unclear, as is the film's production schedule, plot and likelihood of relying on nanobots to explain all the weird-ass things that happen.

The film will come courtesy of Columbia Pictures, and be praised and lambasted in equal measure for its use of 40-minute long "audience participation scenes."

I never really got into this game, I've tried playing it a few times. I'll probably still go see the movie though.

They should only make Games movies, if they were top sellers, this game wasnt


Well it might not be a top seller but it's storyline is amazing. The way it's put together is fascinating. Can't wait to see this movie!
