Yeah, as long as they don't cut her pay or something, you know
I really hope Nintendo, Sony and MS keep their hands out of this. I don't want to see Hideo's games locked to one platform. He makes games everyone needs to play
I dont want him to make mobile Games or small-budget Games...If he wants to create an ambitous new IP - he will need a big load of Money - So either Sony/MS/Nintendo or a big Studio will take him over
Have we been able to figure out if he gets to keep Fox Engine and such?
A Kojima with a super great graphics engine would be invaluable to..........juuuuuuuuuuuuuust about anyone.

i hope Kojima won't become irrelevant like Itagaki now that he is stripped of his signature games and konami's IPs.
Did Kojima also punched a producer and said some lewd stuff to him or what?
I heard he killed an intern.
Konami needs to be THQed at this stage. THQ going bust was good for gamers and their IPs. They do not deserve Metal Gear, Contra, Castlevania and all the Hudson stuff they have.
Yes, 5,500 people should lose their livelyhood because you don't like how they treat their video game IP. That is totally something that should happen. /sarcasm
This is some clever marketing scheme, no doubt.
Not sure they'd fit together :XArnt Kojima, and Miyamoto friends? Omg Nintendo Court him love him. Give him 1/2 the company here's your chance?
P.S. Is celebrity Demi-god developer begging the same as port begging?
P.P.S My body is not ready for kojima at sony or nintendo. :-(
Just joshing, that's actually from a super old interview about Miyamoto and his games.Miyamoto said:Probably the biggest challenge, or I should say the biggest question was whether this game would be really called "a game" and whether this new genre of games can be appreciated by players. I don't want to criticize any other designers, but I have to say that many of the people involved in this industry -- directors and producers -- are trying to make their games more like movies. They are longing to make movies rather than making videogames. In the case of our team, we are not intending to make movies.
I can see the meeting now:
"Hey, I have an idea, let's severely damage our reputation and likely lose a bunch of money for a viral marketing gag!"
"Great, we'll get right on that!"
Kojima needs to record himself singing Snake Eater, so I can cry over this news properly.
I give my life not for honor but for yooooouuuuuuu~...
No it isn't. PES is much larger.
Not sure they'd fit together :X

Sometimes, it's better to let things die if their is nobody worthy of making them.It would be terrible to not ever again play another installment of these franchises, but at the rate things are going it could very well be a possibility in the next 5 to 6 years if things continue as is.
How much of the cut will be now? Would it matter in the end? Does purchasing it new strengthens Konami's desires to annualize the franchise? Tough position.This is the wrong thing to do here.
It's still Kojima and Kojima Productions game which they've been working on for over 5 years now.
Of course Kojima wants his last Metal Gear game to be a huge success.
If Konami cared, all those franchises would have never fallen to begin with. Why would they care now in this toxic age of AAA games?Konami needs a serious re-org after this... they need to truly have talented and dedicated teams to each of their franchises... for a company that owns Metal Gear, Silent Hill, Contra, Castlevania, Pro Evolution Soccer, Yu-Gi-Oh, Dance Dance Revolution, etc.... they shouldn't have such wild quality issues. Dedicate an internal team to each major franchise and let them grow together. It works with Nintendo... the blueprint is right there!
Do you think there will be any major DLC campaign?
I'd think she's been paid by now. Anyway I wouldn't worry about that she's got plenty on her plate: http://dagmusic.com/?lang=en
Just please don't give the series to a cheap western studio.
So Kojima won't be a free agent until Metal Gear comes out in September ?

why would he get to keep fox engine? all of that tech was developed for konami. they own it.
;_; She's a true Metal Gear. I will buy the game forever.
