While the full game is scheduled for May 25, 2010, you can try out the demo for Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker today. The demo will be available on the PSN Store and Konami.com giving you four missions to go through. The game picks up right after Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, or the only MGS game I have yet to play. I know, I know it's suppose to be pretty awesome so I'll try and get to it during my down time.

Set in 1974, you're playing Naked Snake again checking out what's going on in Costa Rica. What's unique about the game for the MGS series is the ability to play cooperatively. I don't have a PSP so this game's out for me but it does look pretty cool and one that MGS fans should enjoy.

KONAMI LAUNCHES PLAYABLE DEMO OF
METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER

New Demo For Hideo Kojima's Highly Anticipated Title Features
Four Mission Types And New Content
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. - December 17, 2009 - Konami Digital Entertainment Inc., announced that it will release a playable demo of Hideo Kojima's eagerly-awaited METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER today titled "METAL GEAR SOLID PEACE WALKER: DEMO-OPS."

With METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER recently confirmed as a May 25th launch on the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system, Konami is giving people the chance to get an early taste of one of 2010's most highly anticipated games with an extensive playable demo. Available via the PlayStation®Store and Konami.com the free demo titled "METAL GEAR SOLID PEACE WALKER: DEMO-OPS" showcases four mission types featuring new content previously playable only on the show floor of the Tokyo Game Show, and more.

METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER marks the return of the world-renowned stealth-action series. Hand-crafted by series creator Hideo Kojima, the all-new sequel delivers an original game design, story, and scenario as it picks up where METAL GEAR SOLID 3: SNAKE EATER for the PlayStation®2 leaves off.

The game is set in Central America in 1974, as players take control of the famed Naked Snake (Big Boss): the legendary hero who had once saved the world from the brink of nuclear war. Snake has now turned his back on his mother country and established 'An Army without a Government' in South America, and is approached by visitors from 'A Nation without a Military' to investigate suspicious activity in the peaceful paradise of Costa Rica. Amidst the turmoil of the cold war, Costa Rica alone had managed to be a beacon of peace in a region torn by conflict, but all of that may change.

METAL GEAR SOLID PEACE WALKER: DEMO-OPS will be available today on the PlayStation®Store. The demo will also be available for download through various gaming websites as well. The full METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER experience will be released exclusively for PSP system on May 25th. For more information, please visit www.konami.com/mgs
