Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of Patriots [BLES00246]

Running on "RPCS3 Version: 0.0.8-9365-aeed349a Alpha" here. Can't seem to get past the introductory logos.

The game boots and I get audio, but right after it loads up the Konami and Kojima logos it goes to a black screen and stays there. FPS counter moves, however. Last thing I have in my logs is:
U {PPU[0x100002b] Thread (HLE Video Decoder)} cellVdec TODO: Interlaced frames not supported (0x1) x3

Tried upgrading/downgrading versions of the game, and can confirm this occurs regardless of whether I used ASMJIT or SPU LLVM, Vulkan or OpenGL. Darn shame.
