Next-Gen.biz recently got some hands-on time with Metal Gear Online, which goes into beta next month. Metal Gear Solid 4 will include a starter pack, but the full game will be a separate product either through DLC or retail.

The game will support up to 16 players and features the following cit the cut for information about auto-aim and character customization.onfirmed game modes:
Deathmatch
Team Deathmatch
Capture the Flag
Flag Defense
Base-Capture

Auto-aim is in the game, but don't panic. It'll only be useful at close range. This should alleviate having to rush into first-person when someone is two feet in front of you. However, it'll be useless at long range and first-person aiming will be more accurate.

Characters can be customized in both appearance and skills. Your characters abilities are determined by 4 skills, which mimics Call of Duty 4's Perk system, but each skill will actually level up over time.

I think this game really looks promising.

This is looking pretty nice and I laughed at the last two parts. The last part I was like wtf? LMAO!

I hope this game is a real contender and gives COD4 a run for it's money. With all the added little things in it, it just might.

This is looking awesome.

I finally played Team Fortress 2 (Orange Box) on my PS3 last night and it was pretty fun. My team actually won as well and I didn't know the map we were playing on or much about the controls either (real men don't read instruction booklets). I would still rather play this kind of game with my mouse and keyboard though as the mouse let's you aim much better. I'll have to increase my sensitivity for "look" the next time I play.
