Konami went nuclear.
So why are people so quick to rush to Kojima's defense knowing nothing about all this?
Konami is managed by morons.
Man I hope Burke doesn't face repercussions over this
Arcade cabinets, toys, Casino gaming/slot machines, YuGiOh cards and anime, and health and fitness clubs (in Japan).
And is that confirmed, that his team was fired? It's not even confirmed that he was. He could have quit under bad terms and his team followed. Nobody knows what's going on.Because no matter what you don't fire a man AND his team who worked so hard for you and gave you so much over 27+ years.
So you're going to make the however many months/years of Kojima's suffering worthless then? That's not the right thing to do. It's still his project. His game. Regardless of what the box says, we all know who made it. At least buy it used.I won't buy MGS5
So Konami is saying that her claims are "categorically incorrect" but Kojima's name is removed from the credits anyway?
It's not like Kojima would quit and ask to get his name removed from HIS games.
Kojima will be proclaimed the perfect troll if true. I'm all for this actually lol it could be fun to see the reactions.Watch this all be some convoluted marketing scheme to drum up interest in MGS5. It has all of Kojima's favorite things, unexplained conspiracies, revisionist history, and more than likely nanobots.
UPDATE: Konami says Burke's claims are "categorically incorrect".

Kinda sad to hear, but it can turn out well. A new franchise from Kojima sounds really good to me.
Metal Gear was legendary but it's time to give the franchise a rest. Though Konami will probably still try to milk it after Kojima is gone.
Kojima and co. are still a contracted employee. That could be very well why the are mum... you know business ethics, employee rights, and all that.
She can always make a career out of it, ala Taylor Swift.Man I hope Burke doesn't face repercussions over this
Frankly, in light of this particular fiasco and previous shenanigans, please allow me to amend your statement:Konami went nuclear.
Yeah ill upvote this.Damn, I wonder what the full story is
Him and Clarkson should team up and make Top Metal Gear
"Fired" is not the same as "restructuring him out of a job" so the PR guy is right, but still scummy."Categorically" incorrect
Gotta love that wording
I'd watch for the lols.I suppose he can start making real movies now..
So why are people so quick to rush to Kojima's defense knowing nothing about all this?
Don't the japanese fire their employees by giving them useless jobs where they can't do anything in hopes they'll leave due to labor laws?

Has Kojima done any tweets since the whole "heading off" one?
I remember only seeing retweets on his EN account atleast.

He job role.
"He" job role.
Hi job role.
Hideo job role.
I swear, even the Konami damage control department is utterly inept.

You positive about that.
One of my theories is when Konami made KojiPro a brand and offer it to him, while he was a VP, He was granted the rights to that brand.
Now he is no longer an employee, his contract stated he owns his brand. Probably some bad blood with the new power had them say "Take your brand, and we are scrubbing it from our IP"
This is such a weak spin, I feel sorry for reading it.
That guy works for Gamespot not Konami.
