Before a mod gets his knickers in a twist, I'm by no means perpetuating anything, only trying to corroborate / look into the Dr's statements in the interview.
I can't find a single google search of Dr. Sergio Cannavero before 2013. I only mention this due to his statement of having double hundreds of conferences, as well as being a certified Dr. (This isn't his statement, but from the other thread) for quite some time now.
I'm probably just failing miserably, but I didn't find anything.
tbhIt's starting to get less fun and more unhealthy to observe.
I bet Kojima hates NeoGaf right now. Not only does he have to deal with Konami in finishing the game in peace but now has the added trouble of someone suing him for what seems a freakish accidental resemblance.
Oh man that Gif made me lol, it fits so perfectly
This conspiracy stops for no one!
He's in articles going back years: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=canavero+sergio
You can't find anything on him? A Dr. S Cannavero has tens of papers, some 10+ years old, on pubmed, for a start.

All of NeoGAF Konami shills confirmed.
Metal Gear Solid V |OT| Operation Shinji Mikami
weird, at least there is some explanation. ha my brain is still flipping out when I think of the "being" that wakes up after surgery. The docs will be talking to the body, haha.
Mr. body your head transplant was successful. congrats.
Eltorro post with a link like that and no .gif?
Am dissapoint.
it's 2021
the chaps at unseen64 have landed a fabled copy of the unreleased MGSV: The Phantom Pain on ebay
as they release video of the legendary long lost title, smothered in its crib by legal woes and turmoil between konami and kojima, something becomes absolutely clear
it's terrible
the mission based gameplay is horrifically padded and repetitive like the worst of peace walker, and outside of the few demoed missions where the gameplay shines best it's a tepid slog
the story is a disaster as a mute snake grimaces and mumbles one liners while miller overdramatically says corny lines about revenge that sound terrible outside of a trailer. it doesn't end with the beginning of MG1 or the appearance of Solid Snake, the explanation for quiet is astonishingly cringeworthy
the game is a technical disaster as many areas are bare and glitchy, a consequence of Kojima's overambitious vision which in retrospect is so plainly the reason for the split. luckily, most of the time playing the game is spent managing a base through menus, so this is ignored
in the outside world, barely anyone notices this unearthing of this outdated artifact. most with an interest in metal gear are too busy playing Metal Gear: Tactical Operations on smartphones and are looking forward to Metal Gear Solid: Fate Vision, the third game in an epic trilogy by ex Treyarch developers. this new trilogy plays like an Ubisoft game and each entry has handily outsold every Kojima made MGS. Konami will shut down the studio after this because they make no money. Fate Vision will be later known as one of the last games ever made for a dedicated console

Metal Gear: Heaven is released on PS4, Xbox One and PC. The game is a disjointed effort of trying to mimic Ubisoft open world design and the MGS traditional gameplay. Game is way more action heavy, and stealth is severily undermined. Dosn't help that it performs and looks worse than the last entry. Overall is the worst rated MG game ever, like fans predicted, Dawg from GAF stated: "Damn, I'm not buying a Metal Gear game ever". He bought the next entry a year later.

Hideo Kojima, on a press event, announces he is not working anymore for Konami and that he retires from the industry: "The recent events made me rethink our work as creators, in the recent months I realized that the gaming community is poisonous and is impeding the growth of gaming. But, the creators like myself, are also partially to blame. To clean and reset this industry I'm gonna take the first step, I'm announcing my retirement from the gaming world"

Konami announces a court settlement with Dr Cannavaro, afraid of the posible delay for months, Konami decided to offer a nice sum of money to the doctor that has a striking resemblance to one of the characters of the game. Rumors affirm the amount of money is abouot 20 million euros. Cannavaro simply stated: "This is the first step for the human inmortality".
26/06/15 -
To recoup the lost money in the court settlement, Konami decided to lauch the game just a few days after as a way to recover the money and impede that the negativity around the game hurts the sales even more. The game launches with several bugs and lack of polish due to it's rushed launch, still gets widely praised by critics, biogamergirl praised the action and the amazing cutscenes at the level of a big hollywood project, "It was so good that for a moment I thought I was watching the new Avengers movie!" she said.
Yes, ironically enough, Batzi ended up being right.

NPD numbers are in: MGSV reaches first spot, but sales are lower than MGS4, Patcher notes it:"Is a very bad number as a whole, one of the few big japanese IP's are in danger and this could led to a potential disaster", he even goes as far as to say:"This is the beginning of the end of the console/dedicated hardware and gaming". GAF laughs at it, obviously.

After several cut content sold as DLC that pissed gamers but they end buying anyway, Konami on a press event happily announces that MGSV it's the third highest selling MGS game ever, even with not so good sales, they are really happy since thanks to the overpriced DLC the game still made a lot of money. But that's not the only announcement, Konami is going to annualize Metal Gear, the first game of the new saga will be developed by Spark Unlimited. The new head of the gaming division on Konami assured that the company is closely working with the western studio so the game reaches the standard quality of the series. "We love how hollywood managed to reboot some of their most beloved movies, we intend to do the same with Metal Gear, making it more aprochable for a new generation of gamers"

Nintendo is the first mobile company in revenue in Japan and second in the world just behind Supercell. Satoru Iwata is happy with the results and hopes this new public will join the fun of the New Game Boy, the system that was codenamed NX a couple years ago: "We hope that the people who enjoy our mobile games will find our new handheld as the next step in the experience".

NPD numbers are in, New Game Boy continues it's lackluster sales behind 3DS numbers by a good margin, PS4 and Xbox One, who had a promising start had 20% less sales than a year before. Mobile gaming with the new advanced tablets is slowly eating the ground of the dedicated gaming market, overall the industry is 34% down.

Nintendo president, Satoru Iwata won't comment about the rumors that the follow up of the Wii U has been silently canceled, due to the company growing focus on the mobile market and multimedia efforts, with movies and shows of their invigorated IP's that are a smash success in mobile. "We have no comment to make regarding these rumors, just want to say, that Nintendo will always offer quality experiences and that won't change".

After more dissapointed sales, Sony and MS are unable to fight against the newfound stronghold of Mobile/Tablet gaming, more and more traditional console companies are not releasing their games on console and they are jumping to that market. New Game Boy continues it's sad penitence on the failure road that Vita walked just a few years before, most of their games a loli japanese simulators, Nintendo finally abandoned their portable, for the first time the new mainline Pokemon game will be released on mobile.

Dr Cannavaro performed it's first succesful head transplant after 3 failed attempts, patient died a few hours later, but the italian doctor was ecstatic with the results. In his speech in front of hundreds of journalist he never thanked GAF, "ungrateful bastard" wrote Sn4ke, the last MGS fan on GAF.

Sony and MS relased their new consoles a year before, a desperate attempt to stop the mobile tsunami that was gonna drown the console industry. Both were a failure and quickly abandoned, Sony and MS ended killing their first party studios a few months later. The end of an era. "I was right and you were wrong, who laughs now?" created by Patcher on GAF, quickly becomes one of the most legendary threads on GAF.

A new year and the gaming landscape changed forever, GAF is now a PC gaming forum, since PC gaming never suffered from this crisis. New posters react amused as the histories told by the veteran members about how people fighted over company and hardware preferences and how GAF, in some kind of twisted butterfly effect, killed traditional console gaming. They don't believe us, but we, deep in our hearts that still cry over the loss, know the truth.

Kojima knows what to burn first now lol
This whole controversy leads me to believe that La Li Lu Le Lo is indeed real and we are all part of it.
Epic post is epic
Wait--he can perform the surgery in under an hour?
You guys know what this means, right?
...That in less than an hour of playtime, there will be a head transplant in MGSV. This mingles with the hospital bits being at the beginning of the game, too.
Play and beat Ground Zeroes and then start TPP. It'll all make sense
another thing i think this is a publicity stunt with the tweet what Val Spiridonov sent
Why would he sue his client favorite game or serious as well damaging a game company
CNN said:Dr. Hunt Batjer, chairman of neurological surgery at UT Southwestern and president-elect of the American Association for Neurological Surgeons, says White's research is not validation for a human head transplant.
An impossibility, according to Batjer. He conceded that the airway, the spine, the major veins and arteries, can all be put back together, but the spinal cord is the problem. He says the result would be the inability to move or breathe.
"I would not wish this on anyone, I would not allow anyone to do it to me, there are a lot of things worse than death," Batjer says.
The science isn't there to support this, says Arthur Caplan, Ph.D., director of medical ethics at NYU Langone Medical Center. He says it's nothing more than a big PR stunt, and calls Canavero "nuts."
Caplan says this has to be done in many animals before it's tried on humans. Caplan also points out that if Canavero can do this, he should first be helping paralyzed patients by fixing their spinal cords, before transplanting whole bodies.
As for the patients, Caplan says, "their bodies would end up being overwhelmed with different pathways and chemistry than they are used to and they'd go crazy."
This conspiracy stops for no one!
This is a work guys. We're being played. Like some kind of instrument.
