Konami has officially posted an official teaser on their official site…officially.  While 360 owners may think X marks the spot for an MGS4 port due to the presence of a green power button, I dare to differ.  Exhibit A: To the untrained eye it may seem that the teaser is written in green.  Or it could be written in Acid green.  Exhibit B: The i could be referring to the iphone and the exclamation point is not only an iconic gesture in the MGS universe, it is also the i in the official title for Metal Gear Ac!d.  Coincidence…I think not.  The url for the teaser contains mgst in the url.  Metal Gear Solid Touch, anyone?  But of course, speculation only leads to more speculation.  So how about we patiently wait with our hands on our laps like the good gamers we all are.

A New Metal Gear?!

Greetings, Internet.  I’m Nick (a.k.a. StittyMan) and The Wire’s administrator has invited me to write for this blog.  As it’s my first official web journalism assignment, I’m thrilled to help.

Hopefully, you’re also thrilled to read what I have to say.

Gaming has always been a major focus in my life.  I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t interested in them.  I cut my teeth on the good ol’ NES, and as I grew up and stretched my developmental tendrils into life’s finer points, I found a love for writing alongside my game addiction.  Commentary, mostly.  Now 25, i’ve finished my English BA and am passionately interested in all facets of the game industry; design, marketing, cultural influence, history, you name it.

Often, my friends stop me, reminding me I’m preaching about the future of Mario Kart with the passion of a crack addict.

Thank goodness for that backspace key.  Periodically (per the admin’s salute) I’ll be posting essays and commentary on all sorts of video game topics.  I should have the first piece up shortly.

In the meantime, I await your feedback and comments.  I’ve set up stittyman@gmail.com exclusively for contact, so I’m opening the table for questions, concerns, or discussion topics.  Please, ask away.  And don’t make me regret saying that.
