MGS3 is being remade as Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater

After years of rumors, the Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater remake has finally been officially announced with the name Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, during today's PlayStation Showcase (May 24).  

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater was released all the way back in 2004, 

The teaser trailer, which has an actual snake being eaten and barely a glimpse of our leading man, is below. You'll want to watch it because it has a few nods for fans who know where to look. 

There's a few cool moments in the trailers for fans. The trailer starts with a green parrot grabbing a tree frog and carrying it into the sky. Behind it, you can see the Shagohod, which functions as MGS3's own version of the Metal Gear. That green parrot? Probably the pet of ancient sniper The End, who used a green parrot as his spotter. 

There's more in there, but rather than digging through it like a conspiracy theory, lets just talk more about Metal Gear Solid 3: the 60s set stealth adventure has Naked Snake, a younger Big Boss, on a mission against the KGB. Lots of features in Metal Gear Solid 3 were ahead of their time like the camoflage system, the need to prepare food and eat and even the complex healing system. It'll be interesting to see how these systems are reinterpreted for the new game. 

For the remake, it seems Konami are taking care of development themselves. They passed development of the Silent Hill 2 remake off to horror buffs Bloober Team. 

After this, the trailer also revealed a Metal Gear Solid remaster collection that is coming in autumn 2023, featuring Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3. The collection is subtitled "Volume 1" leaving hope that we could be getting a current-gen release of titles like Metal Gear Solid 4, Metal Gear Acid or even Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker if Konami decides to pull together a Volume 2. 

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. No release date has been announced. 

Elsewhere, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 got a full reveal, showing off new villain Kraven the Hunter and a symbiote-infected Peter Parker.

Windows Copilot leak suggests deeper assimilation with Windows 11 features

Key Windows 11 features may soon be customizable as Microsoft further integrates its Windows Copilot AI assistant into the operating system. This tidbit comes from tech news site Windows Latest , which claims to have discovered new .json (JavaScript Object Notation) files within recent preview builds of Windows 11. These files apparently hint at future upgrades for the desktop AI assistant. For example, a “TaskManagerService-ai-plugin.json” was found which is supposedly a “plugin for Task Manager integration”. If this ever comes out, it could give users the ability to “monitor or close running apps using” Copilot. In total, six are currently tested and they affect various aspects of Windows 11. Next, there is an “AccessbilityTools-ai-plugin.json” that gives Copilot a way to “control accessibility [tools]. This would make it "easier for those with [a] disability to navigate through the system.” Third is “ai-plugin-WindowsSettings.json” for controlling important Windows 11 set...

Samsung's ViewFinity S9 may be the monitor creatives have been searching for

Originally revealed during CES 2023 , Samsung has finally launched its ViewFinity S9 5K monitor after nine long months of waiting.  According to the announcement, the ViewFinity S9 is the company’s first-ever 5K resolution (5,120 x 2880 pixels) IPS display aimed primarily at creatives. IPS stands for in-plane switching , a form of LED tech offering some of the best color output and viewing angles on the market. This quality is highlighted by the fact that the 27-inch screen supports 99 percent of the DCI-P3 color gamut plus delivers 600 nits of brightness.  Altogether, these deliver great picture quality made vibrant by saturated colors and dark shadows. The cherry on top for the ViewFinity S9 is a Matte Display coating to “drastically [reduce] light reflections.”  As a direct rival to the Apple Studio Display , the monitor is an alternative for creative professionals looking for options. It appears Samsung has done its homework as the ViewFinity S9 addresses some of...
