Here at Gamersyde, saying we don't like April fool's jokes would be a dramatic understatement. Nevertheless, it would be even more foolish to skip this very nice (and weird) video of an imaginary cross-over between Metal Gear Solid 4 and Assassin's Creed, produced by Ubisoft and Konami themselves - especially knowing that besides the Altaïr joke, the video features real never seen before gameplay from Hideo Kojima's next game.

I updated the news: Altair is a joke, but the gameplay is a real new gameplay from MGS4 !

cant believe i posted this in the forums earlier then you guys.

does indeed look awesome tho. cant wait. MGS4 is gonna rule. i hope its an unlockable suit in the game. i realise the chances are slim and it would make no sense what-so-ever. but it'd be cool. the last scene looks to be in a very crusades like environment with a church or something in the background. either kojima's dev team has far too much extra time and modeled a little big of assassins creed like environment, or you visit such a place in MGS4. either way it looks cool.

I saw the Youtube one, really cool idea, and the footage is what makes it worthwhile.

I have been criticizing MGS4 for a while cause they dropped the ball on the graphics but damn that looked amazing!!

Kojima sure loves Ubisoft

Good to see two companies do something like this, but i still find the MGS world dull.

Still.....

well played to them!

That was really impressive...i really liked how the game went from a cut-scene to a gameplay so seamlessly . The action was frantic and brutal and it ran of so smoothly...geez...this video just restored my faith to MGS 4 ( gameplay wise, that is. ) Looks hella good.

I cared less about the Altair skin and more about what was going on in the game. MGS4 looks fucking wild. Just a few more months now...

That was awesome. Maybe this is one of easter egg's of MGS4. But at the end of clip that was Assasin 2 ?

i think it might be from assassins creed 2. the background really doesnt look like something that would appear in an MGS game. also. it fits in with the assassins creed story too. that the present/past cant distinguish between each other and lines are blured (hence the reason altair (desmond) is still wearing the old assassins clothing despite a helicopter being in the sky. also. at the begining jade says i'd like to announce a brand new chapter in the *beeped out* assassin creed series *beeped out*

i think it might be you know. we'll find out soon enough i guess.

But then again...sometime ago in a MGS 4 trailer there was this short scene that took place in a church so i guess it's really part of the game. Also, it has been stated that the game features multiple locations all over the world.

Best thing I've seen today. That would be cool if the Altair outfit was an unlockable.
