Default N/A: Metal Gear Solid: Solitude

Is this really an official release? I'm having trouble finding info about it, as the link in the entry is invalid, and the new link on that page is invalid also...

Hmm, i think this album doesn't have anything to do with MGS4.

Here's more info about it:

Quote:
THIS PROJECT STARTED IN NOVEMBER 2008 BY TEAMS ELNAOR&SKADENZA (PRIVATE). THE NAME OF THE PROJECT "METAL GEAR SOLID: SOLITUDE" WAS CREATED BY RICK NORMAN (HEAD OF THE PROJECT MOVIE). IT IS BASED, AS AN AFTERMATH-MOVIE, ON THE VIDEOGAME "METAL GEAR SOLID 4: GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS" IN 2008 BY KONAMI. IT USES A NEW GAME ENGINE CALLED "3D GEAR TECH ENGINE" CREATED BY TEAMS
ELNAOR&SKADENZA IN 2008 (PRIVATE-BUILD). IT IS AN ENGINE THAT MODIFIES OBJECTS AND RECORDS IN-GAME FOOTAGE DIRECTLY TO HIGH DEFINITON. THE MOVIE WON'T BE RELEASED, IT IS USED AS A TEST ONLY AND THE ENGINE NEEDS MORE WORK/FIXES. HOWEVER, THE TEAM
HIRED THE "VARIOUSMUSICKINGDOM (VMK) GROUP" TO RECORD IT'S SOUNDTRACK. THE GROUP ACCEPTED. SO, BOTH TEAMS WORKED ON THIS HUGE PROJECT, AND FINALLY COMPLETES IT AFTER 5 MONTHS OF HARD WORK, AS A SOUNDTRACK&EXPANDED SCORE, IN MARCH 2009.
THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK FOCUSES ON THE MAIN MOVIE, WITH ACTION, EMOTIONAL AND DRAMATIC MUSIC, WHILE THE EXPANDED SCORE IS MORE THE DARK SIDE OF IT. THE EXPANDED SCORE WAS MAINLY COMPOSED BY STEVEN HAPIRO, BUT ALL 5 COMPOSERS WORKED ON IT, AS WELL AS THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK. THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK WAS MAINLY COMPOSED BY DANIEL COR AND MIKHAEL KORGAN. ADDITIONAL MUSIC BY JAMES ROSKEN, EFGENIEV ONEGIN AND RITASO NOBOEMU. I HOPE THE METAL GEAR FANS ENJOY THIS PROJECT-ALBUM, AS WE ENJOYED WORKING ON IT! THANKS EVERYONE AND ENJOY IT!!!
It's another album posted by Atenzor.. the one behind the controversed "Final Fantasy: Origins". That was also "privately" published.

Both projects are now findable under the website and group "ElegantMusic Studios".
Don't know if he's just doing promo on vgmdb... or we can class that on doujin? demo? or also delete it.

Yeah, this seems pretty dodgy. We probably should just delete it.

Delete! Delete! Whether game related or not, it's false advertising when displayed as an official release and has been lying around for too long.
