Japanese MGA site renewal.

Post by Johnny Undaunted »

http://www.konamijpn.com/products/mga/japanese/

The site has been renewed with a cleaner layout, new artwork and the characters section. There's not much there though. Only Snake's and Teliko's profiles are included so far.

Solid Snake: The Legend. Former member of FOX-HOUND. Currently retired from duty.
Note: Check out Jack and John at the background.

Teliko Friedman: Half-Japanese/Half-American. The daughter of Collin Friedman. A soldier for HRT, she once worked for Roger.

Nice artwork. It's not Shinkawa, but it's still pretty nice.

ReasonWhyNot wrote:Teliko?? Damn EGM had her listed as "Teriko". Oh well, the game looks....interesting. I'm a bit disappointed in the artwork on the site (and very likely in the game as well). It's not as good as Shinkawa's art. And if that is Shinkawa's art, then it's not as good as what he's done previously. But I'll get over that. I'm interested in the story most of all. I hope the game is just as cinematic as the series' PlayStation's incarnations, despite being on the smaller portable. Do you plan on importing the game early Johnny??
Teliko. Teriko. It's the same thing in Japanese actually.

The character designs are done by Tsubasa Masao, who did ZoE2.

Really?? I thought Shinkawa was responsible for the art in ZoE2. Or did he just design the mechas?? And just wondering, who did the anime sequences??
Yoji Shinkawa only did the mecha designs for the ZoE games.

The anime sequences were animated by Sunrise (the studio that did Gundam and it's countless of annoying spinoffs).

Site's been updated with descriptions for Alice and Leone. Check out the background at Alice's artwork. It's the computer room where Emma dies in MGS2.

Alice Hazel: English. She has her helped in each organized investigations she served during the past years by using her psychic abilities (remote clairvoyance).

Lt. Leone: Nationality unknown. The leader of a mysterious mercenary group. He has sided with the anti-goverment forces in the Molloni Republic's civil war.

Plenty of easter eggs in those illustrations. The other guy with Snake looks like MGS3 Snake with the skydiving suit on and Teliko is standing on Solidus' remains...
