Nothing revalent to the question, but does anyone know when about in 2004 Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater will be out? Not a exact date obvousily.

Ok I recently bought this month's GAMEPRO magazine and they keep mentioning in their preview that Snake Eater will be coming out "Early 2004"...... and not once but through out the preview. I dont know how they got that info. But if its true.......I will be the happiest man on planet earth. Well like I already am, because I got the SNAKE EATER 12 minute TRAILER on this month's PSM MAGAZINE!.!

Oh by the way...... Kojima also said that

"The game will not have a character change in Snake Eater, but a something similar surprise would be there half way through the game"...

And now this is what I am guessing the surprise would be..

Spoiler: show

The first part of the game will be a pure prequal.... us playing as BIG BOSS. It'll show how he reached the status of LEGENDARY SOLDIER and all, and what actually happened to him. And After 50% of game complition.....the story will change and SNAKE EATER will actually become a TRUE SEQUAL. We will play as Snake...."In the same jungle area, and same places, but it'll be present time....not 1960's. So it'll be 50 years later or something. That could be a SIMILAR SURPRISE KOJIMA HINTED AT. Because it is a Character change but because Big Boss and Solid Snake are look alike....it wont make much of a difference. All this also include that when playing As Solid Snake, we'll see the parts of jungle and some building which now have been torn down or destroyed because of the war that happened there 50 years ago. It'll be cool..... but all this is my assumptions.........
