[QUOTE=Yummy Pie;47612811]Konami still makes a lot of money off their Soccer games and some weird gambling game in Japan. They know people will still buy Metal Gear with or without Kojima. They'll probably give Metal Gear to some western team and let that run its course.[/QUOTE] Metal Gear Homecoming
[QUOTE=General J;47612063]I hear that tactic of "firing" in Japanese companies by making the work conditions so bad that they quit themselves is actually quite common.[/QUOTE] That's so Japanese. Japan is the master of passive-aggressiveness.
With this and the whole mod fiasco this has been a dark week for gaming it seems.
[QUOTE=dannass;47611778]Come on valve, now's your chance to get one of the best videogame creators of all time on your team.[/QUOTE] Assuming they're even making anything, which i doubt they are. Valve has turned more in to a service industry rather then a video game studio.
Fuck Konami, I hope their future endeavors fall flat on their arse's
Here's hoping Kojima either starts up his own new game studio........or joins Platinum Games....they'd do well together, Creator of the ( original ) Devil May Cry and Resident evil.......and Creator of the Metal Gear series and Zone of the Enders........under the same roof? sign me up!
Seems like most Japanese companies love falling on their faces lately.

[QUOTE=murple;47613342]Fuck Konami, I hope their future endeavors fall flat on their arse's[/QUOTE] They won't they may care less about us market and just focus on japam.
i hope MGSV's quality isn't affected by this
Kojima should use this as a plot to his next game.

Wait, were those sales figures of numbered sequels the total global sales from release to now? How the hell is MGS3 only 3.7 million? That was by far the best one out of all of them.

[QUOTE=Baazul;47611981]I don't see how that would work. What's the minimum time that games from Kojima are in development? 4 years? They wouldn't be able to make big games without financial aid.[/QUOTE] partner with warner bros interactive problem solved
[QUOTE=proch;47611864]You're implying that valve is a video game company [/QUOTE] Last time I checked CSGO and Dota 2 were games.
So it's been over two years since Valve made a game and as far as I'm aware nothing else has been announced excepting various 'piss off our customers' ordeals.
