If this is in fact a re-release like Substance and Subsistence, I wonder what kind of extras we can expect. The extras in Substance was cool, but the ones in Subsistence were even better! MG 1 and 2, those hillarious videos, etc.

But really, what left is there to do with MGS4? Wouldn't it be awesome if we got Policenauts and Snatcher?! Ok, I know THAT will never happen, but hey, I can dream, can't I?! :P

I'd expect a mission set would be the major addition, if it was a Substance-style release. There was very rarely any demands for the player to either use stealth or action in MGS4 (it was up to the player), so I expect everybody's far more skilled in one gameplay style than the other after completing Guns of the <B>Patriots</B>. Being required to use either one or the other for tailored missions could prove quite interesting for hardcore fans.

I hope they would add a mission that is like a PREQUEL to MGS5... :mrgreen:

I've never herd of the "#" (like 4) being left out of an "addition" to an MGS game, i mean they would have called MGS3:S "the begining" or something if that was the case? so i highly doubt that it's MGS4 "existance" or whatever (but i can't wait to see an MGS4:S).

I doubt it's a NEW "metal gear" title, because i'd imagine they'd call it something crazy like they did with the "acid" series of MG (to distance it from the "saga" and snake a little).

To me it sounds like the final "addition" to Metal Gear Online, or something related to MGO.

This is far fetched but, It might be the 2 original "Metal Gear" titles re-made in 3D as 1 game or on 1 disk, that could explain the "Existance" ? (i think that would be pretty bad-ass...highly doubtfull koji pro would do this).

all just my bullshit opinons/theory....can't wait to see though.

I hope it would be an add-on pack like subsistence etc.. but I swear I remember reading somewhere that Kojima doesn't plan to release an expansion pack to MGS4?

Can't remember where i read it.

Hey I know this is an old thread. But now that we know about Peace Walker and Rising, what do you guys think? Did anyone mention if those had anything to do with Existence?
