Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker characters revealed in Famitsu
Hideo Kojima has remained tight-lipped about the characters that will appear in Konami's upcoming PSP spy romp, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker -- so far, we only know four: Snake, Snake, Snake and Snaaaake! However, Famitsu has revealed a few other faces that will make an appearances in the game: Amanda, Huey, Chico, Coldman, Strangelove, Galvez, Cecile, Paz, and, most notably, Master Miller from Metal Gear 2. The magazine also included illustrations of these characters, who look as colorful as their names might suggest.
Famitsu also provides details about the co-op modes seen in the nine-minute trailer released last month. When two players get close to one another, "Co-op" mode activiates, merging the players' health gauges and allowing them to trade items. When they get really close, they go into "Snake-in" mode, in which one player controls both Snakes' movements so that the other can focus on murdering fools.
We wonder if all four players can merge in this manner, forming a growling, bearded train of death?

Am I the only one who thinks Galvez looks like a young(er) Campbell?
Roto13 @ Sep 23rd 2009 12:27PM
Kind of. :P But Campbell actually looked pretty completely different when he was young in Portable Ops.
Faceman @ Sep 23rd 2009 2:07PM
yea I was actually convinced that was Cambell for a sec. Maybe Galvez is actually his father! *gasp*

I don't mind the health sharing and item trading. But I don't like the idea of som one else taking control of my character.
Fullmetal Salchemist @ Sep 23rd 2009 3:58PM
I agree. I also dislike the idea of getting together and "murdering fools," since I like no-kill playthroughs.
Dartmerc @ Sep 23rd 2009 7:32PM
I bet you hate driving segments too.
Fullmetal Salchemist @ Sep 24th 2009 12:09AM
Well, yes, but more because of their ubiquity than anything else.
Solace @ Sep 23rd 2009 12:06PM
this game is going to be awesome! I love the MGS art style.
Traceur_Ryuk (PSN: Ryuk_shinigami) @ Sep 23rd 2009 1:03PM
I didn't know MGS had a very stand out art style...
The_Punisher @ Sep 23rd 2009 1:07PM
Then you obviously haven't played MGS :P

You better watch out for Huey. He's got the power of love.

You don't need no credit card to ride on this train.

MCDONALL MILLER!
I can't see that name without hearing Liquid's voice.
Grimcicle @ Sep 23rd 2009 12:07PM
Maybe they'll bring Cam Clarke back.
Jawmuncher (PSN & XBL:Jawmuncher) @ Sep 23rd 2009 12:11PM
It would be cool if Cam Clarke did Mcdonald Millers voice

"Snake-in" mode
SWORD FIGHT!
Zexion_VI @ Sep 23rd 2009 12:08PM
I wonder if there are options for more than 2 people... That train of death idea sounds really awesome. One focuses on moven\ment, one on guns, one on explosives, and one on healing or CQC.
lol, as for the characters. I doubt thats all. lol, no Ocelot? What kind of MGS game is this!!!
Zoot Suit Jedi @ Sep 23rd 2009 12:10PM
I usually wait until the second date to attempt "Snake-in" mode.
KenpachiZaraki @ Sep 23rd 2009 12:25PM

Uninspired shitty rip-offs of previously uninspired shitty rip-off characters. Yawn.

Can't ANYONE on the Internet be positive?
Gibbeynator @ Sep 23rd 2009 1:07PM
Ohhh, please put Kessler in the game, please put Kessler in the game.
Danny @ Sep 23rd 2009 1:57PM
The one on the right looks to me like Agent Doggett/ Liquid Terminator guy
Faceman @ Sep 23rd 2009 2:08PM
