[QUOTE=Ganerumo;47355803]MGS is also a Konami IP, so it'll still get games. Just, you know, really bad ones.[/QUOTE] I'd love to see Platinum make 1 or 2 more Rising games. Other than that, can't see what else they could do with it.
lol konami are signing their own death sentence by disbanding kojipro and "firing" Kojima
[QUOTE=LTJGPliskin;47356901]I'd love to see Platinum make 1 or 2 more Rising games. Other than that, can't see what else they could do with it.[/QUOTE] They tried doing it with silent hill, they'll try doing it with MGS.
Does this mean that Kojima won't at all be able to use the FOX engine in any of his future titles?

Beautiful edit there mate.
[QUOTE=Drury;47357047]Beautiful edit there mate.[/QUOTE] No one saw that.
On the brightside, if Kojima goes indie, anything he starts on kickstarter will get funded(whether he manages to complete them is beyond me). On the downside, this also means ZOE3 will never happen
I wonder if Konami will try to even screw him out of royalties and everything for the series at this point.
[QUOTE=Drury;47357047]Beautiful edit there mate.[/QUOTE] That's real. Google search "konami stock".
This is like waking up to discover fucking Santa Claus dying. given how Konami handles Silent Hill I can't WAIT for "METAL GEAR : HOMECOMING" "METAL GEAR : BOOK OF MEMORIES" "METAL GEAR : DOWNPOUR. Fuck man. Will this affect MGSV at all? Has it already? And Silent Hills.... that was supposed to save the franchise. You boys know I love Snake but his franchise has been gold for 25 years. If it's just Del Toro working on it I mean that's groovy that it'll be made but goddamn Silent Hill was Kojima's desperate pet project he's wanted for years to make this is making me so mad

That's a 50/50, honestly.
There's a part of me that doesn't believe this because Kojima and Yugioh is all Konami has when it comes to games. Why the fuck would you screw over Hideo fucking Kojima? The things that are confirmed though make me teeter towards this "source" being legit. But if that's the case, where will Kojima go? Will he go indie? Or will he join another company?
All of us need to save Kojima in GZ today and pretend we're saving him from Konami
Does this mean Konami owns the FOX Engine, that Kojima developed with his own money?
[QUOTE=Dick Slamfist;47357335]All of us need to save Kojima in GZ today and pretend we're saving him from Konami[/QUOTE] Requesting texture mod that puts Konami emblems on all the soldiers. Pretend that the FOX Engine is on the cassette tape. :v:

Does this mean Zone of Enders 3 is even more dead than it was before?
Oh my god. I just realized... Kojima left Konami. That means DSP won.
Well, in light of today's news I went to this game store near me that has stuff from every era. They just got a copy of Twin Snakes in, with the sleeve, manual and the disks in good condition. For 30 bucks. i have a problem I really didn't need this but aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I just realized if Kojima leaves Konami then that makes Snake's chances of returning to Smash 4 practically nil.
[QUOTE=Dick Slamfist;47357532][img]http://i.imgur.com/o3GPQ7L.png[/img][/QUOTE] I don't know if I should laugh or cry.
Metal Gear fans, are hurt, but we all knew this was Koji's last game for MGS, no question. I'm hurt because I fucking know Konami will outsource Metal Gear Solid to an american developer like they did Silent Hill. Mark my words.

The debate and hate surrounding it are all just in relation to the original and the changes they made, but on its own I think it's great. Not the best MGS, but worth playing to experience the first game through a more modern lens. [editline]19th March 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Dick Slamfist;47358544]Metal Gear fans, are hurt, but we all knew this was Koji's last game for MGS, no question.[/QUOTE] Ha ha nope, I questioned it. Kojima has always said the same kind of shit for every MGS since the second one. "This is the last one, no this is the last one. No wait, [I]this[/I] is the last one. [B]This[/B] one will complete Big Boss' story. No no no wait, [B]THIS[/B] one will. NO. WAIT. [I][U][B]THIS[/B][/U][/I] ONE WILL." At least for me, though, this one really is the final MGS. I don't care what else they make from here on out. As far as I'm concerned, they aren't canon or related in any way. Even if they turn out to be good somehow, it will always be a separation between "Kojima's MGS" and "Konami's MGS" for me.
Even Punished Snack is heeling from this news. [img]http://i.imgur.com/t0bdmYW.jpg[/img]
[QUOTE=Dick Slamfist;47358610]Even Punished Snack is heeling from this news. [img]http://i.imgur.com/t0bdmYW.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] I feel bad for Geoff Keighley, he's been involved with video games for a super long time and just looks dead inside when he has to shill.
That Gray Fox is like 50$ too, I want that as a gift. I was't prepared for today, guys. I wasn't prepared to learn that Kojima is losing his name off the games and Metal Gear will be tossed around like a whore in an old saloon. This shit is honestly making me wary for TPP now. I wonder if Kojima intentionally left it open instead of closing the circle of the Metal Gear games because he knows they're going to start milking it. Ic an't wait for all the portable ops.

Kojima's Twitter is eerily silent today. Also, I think you mean [B]Mobile[/B] Ops. :suicide:
Hasn't it already been confirmed his contract is over in December and he's leaving?
