Metal Gear Solid's online gameplay footage has left a lot of people asking how exactly the online process was going to work and what would it involve.  Most of these questions are now officially answered with the launch of the Metal Gear Solid Online website.  Throughout the website you will find details describing what this game mode will offer, why you should play it, who is a part of it and how you can take part in it.

The website isn't officially finished as there are some grayed out options amonst the menu panel; however, we're sure these will be finished in a short period of time.  The site also includes some new screenshots that display the online world for MGS.  We've included a link below for you to check it out and get all the answers you need about this highly anticipated feature coming bundled with MGS4.

    @ Deusthousand - You can preorder it now and get the beta code and DVD from Gamestop/EB Games or Gamecrazy.

    Well, I checked out the website and Metal Gear Online looks pretty cool. MGO kinda reminds me of SOCOM a little bit and I think it's going to do well because literally everyone that gets Metal Gear Solid 4 is most likely going to get Metal Gear Online.

    @ HazdoTT. MGS4 its self will not have Online due to space. They can't fit anything else on the disc. 50GB! So they have to release the online on another disc ( That I think comes bundled with MGS4 )

    psn id: gingo..... this is going to be the first ps3 online where players will have to communicate and work as a team and that is the main reason i'm looking forward to it

    If this game actually gets people to communicate and work as a team because of pure gameplay mechanics, it's automatically the greatest online shooter ever.  Geeks are notoriously egocentric.
