At a special Metal Gear Solid 20th Anniversary event in Tokyo today, Konami unveiled a new graphic novel adaptation of the stealth franchise's most controversial entry -- Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. 1UP reports that the title is styled similarly to the 2006 PSP novel (based on IDW's Metal Gear Solid comic series), with the exception that speech bubbles will now be accompanied by full voice acting.
The release date for MGS2: Bande Dessinée (isn't that French for "comic strip?") is currently unknown.

Apparently, Kojima was working on two announced projects. I guess this is one, has the other one been anounced yet?

Hahaha.
So, the two new games are another "digital graphic novel" and a cell phone applet. Both are MGS.
That's pretty rich. Konami truly is the house of ideas.

If anyone is wondering what the subtitile "Bande Desinee" is, it is just French for "The Comic"

Word of the street. @ Jul 24th 2007 11:44AM
Lol :P
Is destinated band right?.
Anyway I already watched this on kotaku,Nothing like watching a Great video using gamevideos crappy player in one of the most lame videogmae blogs ever(If kotaku counts as a videogame blog because most of the time they talk about pantsu and those mini japanesse dolls in bikinis,go ahead just check.They have a Dead or alive doll in the first page.)
Anyhow I'm going to watch this again when it hits IGN,Youtube or gametrailers because I cant stand gamevideos.I love the voice acted stuff but I dont think it will be in all the comic maybe during some action scenes.I also hope their made the connection stuff easier it was a glitch searching for all the FOXHOUND signs in the first DGN.
This is a must have for every MGS fan,the first one was almost like watching a movie.

Are not ALL Metal Gear Solid games graphic novels? Whenever I sat down to play a title in the series, I end up just watching it.
