A masked man being interviewed by a man wearing a tall hat. It makes sense.

Not a chance in hell...but Moby Dick is a studio, with no named publisher. It could be a Konami sanctioned way for him to work on smaller projects and really take some risks.
Not this specifially but the marketing for Metal Gear is generally very good.
Not with "Metal Gear Solid V" being featured so prominently on top of the Phantom Pain logo.

I want to see just how batshit crazy this gets.
So far we have a fake studio website, a fake trailer, and now a fake studio lead dev interview, all to cover for what looks like the next MGS game.
What's next? Fake developer diaries? TV ads for a game that doesn't exist? Actually releasing the game "The Phantom Pain" and hiding a MGS game under its title?

Coming from Kojima even that logo could be a hint as to what the phantom pain is...he could easily have an explanation for that.

This is so dumb. Just reveal the damn game already and stop attention seeking.

They're going to reveal that this guy is an in-game model.
Joakim is obviously an anagram for Kojima.

No, Juan Cena
He definitely enjoys toying with his audience.
Example: None of the MGS2 trailers showed gameplay featuring Raiden, and as a result everyone thought they would be playing as Snake through the duration of the game. Boy were some people pissed.
Example 2: The first MGS4 trailer starts out in first-person view, and teases that MGS4 is going to be a FPS. Then Snake comes and you realize you were actually looking from the view of a soldier.
So true. 7 years and only 1 MGS.... wtf....
Uh...what?

Nah. It mentions the word 'Ogre in it, though. Kojima has been talking about a project on Twitter for a few years now called Project Ogre.

It has Ogre in it. Project Ogre was talked about by Kojima but I'm guessing that GZ is Project Ogre since that's the taboo game? Something like that. I've probably mixed up some facts.

Only think that stands out to me is that it has Ogre in the middle.
I think someone earlier mentioning it was suppose tobe mOGREn. Could be wrong lol.

Having just read the story concerning the tv pilot format Kojima is pitching, what if ground zeroes and the phantom pain are like these pilots and whichever gets the better response turns into a game? That or both games were simply concepts that will never be full games.
Still imagine downloading these for free and playing a few hours of an experience that contains elements that are being folded into the real MGS5.
"From Fox Two Phantoms Were Born"
It's possible we're looking at our 2 phantoms, 2 experiments that were created alongside FOX Engine, that will never be full games, but also functions as a test run for this whole tv pilot concept.

holy fuck are you goons seriously photoshopping bandages onto photos of cliff blezinski?
i hope kojima never releases this game.

Cliff wouldn't be the craziest thing. Even though everything points to Kojima, the fact that Cliff is such a huge fan of Kojima, he could easily be throwing everyone off on purpose.
Wasn't it around the time of the VGAs that Cliff said that since leaving Epic he had already grown tired of his vacation and was looking at how to get back into developing?

Monger. A person promoting something undesirable or discreditable. Often used in combination: a scandalmonger; a warmonger.

Another setback to the "let's have fun every once and a while" crowd.

Probably not...it could be possible with these titles though if they were truly built as prototypes alongside FOX, but the chances of that happening are slim.
But I think this concept is what Kojima meant when he called GZ a "prologue"

I think between GZ and PP, one of them are pilot. most likely PP, and they're using some GZ asset to cut down cost since it's just pilot/prototype games
Our psychological intellect, apparently.
