I don't think you understood my question.

You're probably right. Long long shitty day at work. UGH glad to finally be home. This was a great thread to come home too though, even if true. Gets the ball rolling on the E3 Hype

Why would you think it was a MGS game that got canned?

What was the last time Kojima was deeply involved with a non-MGS game?.

I don't know, just looking at the possibilities is probably something MGS related.

Or the version of Rising being made at KojiPro.

Or, you know, something else.

Well development on Rising didn't began one year ago, I think it fits better on the MGS3D timeframe.

I expect The Solid Box on Steam with MGS1-4.

And the whole thing would be purchased without as much as a thought. Include steamworks, and... I don't even know what I'll do. Buy it and do something crazy, basically.

This is probably the weirdest news I've heard in awhile, if true. Could make for an awesome gameplay experience, but I REALLY hope Kojipro is in charge of everything story related.

Thanks for the info :)


Someone here already said they got to review the old unreleased MGS3 port. MGS4 likely started on PC and kept a 1024x768 resolution of all things ;)
They did'nt say an already PC port existed.

I've become barely optimistic at this point but I just see no reason why they'd release MGS4 of all games on PC 3 years later. If MGS3 was already made but never released for whatever reason and they wanted to now as part of some MGS1-3 Steam collection then that sounds reasonable.

But MGS4 requires a big leap of faith, especially considering it seems like that terrible engine was built for PS3 and they'd have to re-do a lot of stuff. I would 100% fucking love if this were true, playing with AA options, 1080p resolution etc. all of that maybe even more content/alternate ending etc. would be fuck amazing. But waaaaay too good to be true.

About a year ago, Kojima started talking about how he was collaborating with Suda51 on a visual novel adventure game, which he later indicated might not even be published by Konami, but involve 5pb instead.

Of late, 5pb has not been doing well, and I recall they just got bought over by a Korean company. This was a small personal project by Kojima, and if it got canned, it would probably affect him on a more personal level than if some MGS project he was casually overseeing got canned.

Imagine if... the MGS games coming to Steam opened the doors for a HD Classics collection on PS3, and a trophy patch coming to MGS4.
I suspect the Steam release and an HD Classics collection on PS3 are probably part of the same porting project. I'm hoping they both have Steamworks support. :)

I'll buy the rumor, but I can't help but wonder at how terrible the team at Kojipro that started work on this must feel.

If what I heard in the past was true, they probably don't feel too bad because they all know they deserved it.

Hehe, that would be something wouldn't it.

Plus wasn't one of the many Kojima (bullshit) excuses for not making it multiplatform because of all the Sony references in the game?

I hope not. ): I was looking forward to that project.

There are more Apple references in MGS4 than Sony references... lol.

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that project.

I want a few TF2 Solid Snaku hats for pre-ordering this.

Anyway, I'm not a huuuge fan of MGS, but the third one was pretty damn rad. Awesome lineup of bosses. I'd definitely buy them on Steam. And Platinum / Kamiya ... I'll buy anything they release, especially on PC. Rising suddenly went from an 'eh' to a 'shaddup and take my money.' If true, anyway.

It's only listed as a PS3 and 360 title on all of Konami websites (Konami.com and the English and Japanese KojiPro sites).
Hopefully they haven't canned the PC version as I was only interested in it because of that.

Maybe it has to do with Kinect/Move implementations?

Has anyone thought about this having a chance of being a marketing stunt to get more attention around their MGS reveals?
 
Kojima (to younger KP members): Its time to hand over the reigns. I trust you.

Young guys: Yay!

Time goes by

E3 2009 Microsoft Conference:

Kojima: Its MGS, but doesn't have Snake. Suck it Don.

E3 2009 Sony Conference:

Kojima: Yeah, Peace Walker is basically MGS5. How fucking cool is this shit?

E3 2010 Microsoft Conference:

Kojima: Hi guys, thanks for the applause. Heres a young guy making MGS:R, suck it!

Walks off stage.

Some point between now and then:

Kojima: Hi guys how is Rising coming alo---OH MY FUCKING GOD. WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU BEEN DOING ALL THIS TIME. YOU STUPID FUCKS. FUCK!

If konami gave castlevania to the developers of jericho then giving MGSrising to platinum doesn't seem like a strech AT ALL. Maybe they should let kamiya direct the next castlevania as well.

I may be wrong, can't find it now.
That was me. I was working off a console build, though. I have been told by my publisher that a PC release has been confirmed behind closed door. In retrospect, I think it might have only been an assumption.

The most interesting part is the number of systems MGS6 would be coming to..

PS3 360 NGP and "3DS"?

If they're revealing MGS games then they're automatically going to get a ton of attention.

This is a game I want more than any MGS game. I really hope it hasn't been canned.

If this was a marketing stunt then they would've done something much bigger than mentioning Kamiya.

I am laughing at Kojima and hope this is true. LOL @ him losing his own game, thats what happens when you never patch MGS4 for trophies. He trolled us for months with ambiguous answers whenever asked about them, now likewise he shall be trolled. Karma is a b curse.
