What does that say at the top? "_____ _____ ______ Action"?
As in Tactical Espionage Action?

High Speed Robot Action
Ahhhhh, perfect
I never thought I would be completely apathetic about a new ZoE game, but that's how I am right now. The setting and universe is part of what makes ZoE. Just based on the summary of the concept so far, this new game sounds like it'll basically be ZoE in just name only. If Konami really wants to continue with this project, they should just completely drop all ZoE references and develop the game as a new IP.

Kinda hoping it at least bounces back and forth between the old and new setting.

No need to worry about this ruining the franchise, 'cause it's never coming out.
Right. Looks like this is the Devil Project.
Kojima has been tweeting about both Project Ogre and Devil Project, and everyone has been assuming they are one and the same...
It now seems like Project Ogre and Devil Project are two completely different projects!
Exciting!
What on earth are you talking about? Kojima tweets in Japanese. Oni = ogre/devil/demon depending on whoever is translating it.

I think this could well be the Oni project, unless you know different. Seems like something he spent his lunchtimes on, there's even a tweet where he posts a Jehuty Shinkawa drew in one Ogre meeting. He said this project would take a long time and he'd be producing other games before this comes out, seems to fit to me.
Obviously there's some sort of metal gear game in the works too, but he rarely tweets about that.
He said the game would literally deal with demons/devils/ogres, and we've seen these orbital frame designs with devilish pointy tails.

They are the same thing, people just use different translations. On his Japanese twitter he always refers to it as his "oni game" or something like that.
From what we know Project Ogre is an open-world game that is actually in development. That pretty much rules ZoE out.

Oh, I see. Haven't heard the Japanese name before. Thanks for clearing that up, guys. I was getting too excited to think clearly

His next game is the open one, but I'm not convinced it's the same thing as Ogre, despite the gaming press linking them together.
But this isn't "his" game at all. All the online articles reporting from the event state that Kojima assigned Ryosuke Toriyama as the producer of Enders Project because he is too busy with all the other things he is working on, including the Project Ogre he keeps talking about on Twitter.
Did he ever specifically link the statue he posted the last time with Project Ogre? Because he has been tweeting since the even yesterday as well, and he refers to this as Enders Project, and he hasn't bothered saying anything about Project Ogre at all. If this is Project Ogre, I would think he would just come out and say it.

No I've not seen any direct quotes linking either project. But there is a view that Ogre is a very MGS-looking game, despite him talking about MGS5 as something distinct from that, so I'm just saying what I feel could be a more likely explanation.
do you not like cockpit penises?

Wouldn't it make less sense to call the cockpits now though?

Why do I have a feeling the design they are showing off is the bad guy?

Is it just me or these new orbital frame designs seem to be more close to being power armours than giant robots?
Game takes place in ancient times, not the future.

One does not invalidate the other...
Well I dont think there are going to be giant robots in the past so I am going to say its armor. Though who knows really.

Kojima has never had any real input on the design of the ZOE games; his name is there because it's supposed to help sell them.

He's never been from the beginning. ZoE (from a design/directing view) has always been in charge of other people such as Shuyo Murata.
He is; most recent thing he did was co-writing Peace Walker with Kojima.
Lol Sony supports enough games that arnt going to sell.
Don't get excited guys, MML3 was further along than this will ever get

Except that this will actually come out.

FUCKING BIG ROBOT ACTION.
That'd do me.
Edit: I am moist in the pants for this motherfucker. Make it happen, Kojima.
Keep dreaming
From Kojima's twitter page:
Who do I have to throw money at to get this? Is this actually available for purchase? I know that they were showing some MGS ones a while back too.

So is this actually turning into something?
Because if it is I may just piss myself.
