Isn't this old news? Still lame though
His name had only been officially removed from site-related content, so the MGSV website, Konami site, etc., not the box art -- which the placeholder was still present!

So bizarre, the group will be liquidated anyway, why go the seemingly vindictive group of erasing their logo and name from the last game they'll ever make, a game they spent so many years making?

Would be funny if they remove his name from the credits.
So when the inevitable MGS6 (or next Metal Gear game) releases certain people will not realize the absence of Hideo Kojima's involvement.

How do they fuck up so badly as to not use Shinkawa art on the cover. You have da God artist use him.
That would be awesome if everyone who bought this game changed the cover to a fan made version where it still says a Hideo Kojima game. Konami would get so salty.
Buy it used if it pisses you off that much. Konami won't see a cent of that unless you purchase additional DLC.So fucking terrible. I wish I could buy this game without supporting Konami at this point. But I must.
Incentive to buy ASAP; probably has MGO stuff or codes for free Day One DLC unlocks in it. With stuff like consumables, soldiers at the HQ, camo patterns, and MGO, it'd be easy to dream up DLC unlocks to incentivise Day One bullshit.What's with the day one edition thing

It really comes off as petty,vindictive and bitchy.
I can't interpret this any other way.
Kojima and his team worked so hard on this for years.Kojima made gazillions of presentations, interviews and tweets on this game a lone.No one has a right to scratch off Kojipro logo.
The funny thing about that is that, from what I heard, Kojima's name is pretty much all over the place in-game. Every single episode starts and ends with credits as if it was an actual TV show or whatever. So you'll probably end up seeing the words "Directed by Hideo Kojima" multiple times over the course of the game, anyway.
Changing this would probably involve resubmitting GZ in all territories just to change that icon and pushing an update to people who already own it. Not worth the time and money in Konami's books, I bet. MGS5 isn't out yet, so I'm sure they will change it there in time for release.The messed up thing is that Ground Zeroes still has the "A HIDEO KOJIMA GAME" tag on it, even on digital storefronts like PlayStation Store:
Not only the bolded, but he has been working on the game engine for roughly seven years (began working on it after MGS4, alongside Peace Walker and throughout the production of MGSV), and it will have been used for this, a couple of soccer games and a demo of what could have been a truly special horror game.
So will Kojima still be in the game's credits?
I haven't really been following the development of this game. I assume he was obviously involved.
