Hideo Kojima launches new studio and partners with Sony. PS4/PC targeted.

That doesn't make any sense. So you're basically knocking the MGS franchise for spanning 4 generations of gaming but you still give the nod to franchises like Halo, Forza, and Fable that have spanned 3 generations? So next gen they'll suddenly be s*** games too? I didn't know shooting aliens, driving in circles, or slaying goblins was any more exciting than what MGS offers.

Oh man. Xbox fans crack me up sometimes. Like.. you got one of the best games this gen on your platform. It's not even a PS exclusive anymore and it's more open world than the previous entries. First Xbox fans said they hated MGS games because they're like watching movies. Now MGS5 comes out and changes things up and it's still not good enough. What more do you want?
T.D., or Sybil or, whoever you are this week: bruh, sis, WTH are you talking about mane?

That first paragraph was a doozie. I was like, "OH SNAPS!! T. D. go hard these days." And the more I read, the more I began to wonder, "the hell is wrong with these two?"

I'll give you another go...
 
Some people don't like MGS. Some don't like Halo. Let people have their opinion.

I know Marty's rep or supposed rep. But I didn't see anything over the top in his comments.

It looks like JinCa's not a big fan either. Unless I'm assuming wrong.
 
Well I think his mean issue was he was forced to keep making MGS games for years when he was wanting to get away from the series.

He kept saying he was done and kept coming back but I don't know that there is any evidence that he was forced to keep making them.

Right. Now days it's about racers, FPS, 3rd person, indies, etc. MGS just seems dated these days. No matter how relevant they've tried to make it, it just can't shake off the smell of yesteryear's. This is why many really aren't bothered by the recent announcement. When you think Kojima, you think MGS. That property is beloved all over the world. But that doesn't mean people haven't moved on to better things. It's nothing personal.
 
Have you tried Boktai or Zone of Enders? Those games are insanely different from MGS and often get over shadowed with all the MGS noise around Kojima.

I have no problem with you not liking MGS but how is MGS 5 dated? I feel like you are just trying to make more of your opinion than just saying "I don't care for MGS".

I'm not. I'm just thorough. Snake/MGS is dated. Even here people regard it like it's an old General from days past. He's got great War stories to tell, but he passed his mantle long, long ago. That's Snake.

I think that could be said about any old series. If that is your point then fair enough.
 
I beyond care? Seriously? Do you know me to mince words? If I cared, I'd just say so. I gave my genuine opinion of the man's work. I'm not a fan. At all. His games are getting better, insinuates that I'm not the only one who thinks his later works were s***. That includes you. And please, spare me and lay off the sympathy award. Kojima and Konami are finished. Happens in business relationships all the time.

He has made many game of the year games in the past with his most recent work taking the lead this year in reviews PLUS he got dev of the year. A GREAT TIME to for a company to snatch him up wouldn't you say?

Its gameplay is far from dated though.
 
I don't even know why you're allowed to post on this forum. we all know your insane love for MS and this forum is for those who own multiple consoles or at least would think about getting more then one console. So for once TD is kind of right.
Part of my point...he says he don't care but yet has posted multiple times in this thread and discredited the mans work when the mans peaking right now.
That's H8erade

Who snatched him up? He is an independent developer at the moment and not likely to stay exclusive for very long.

Peaking with what? I'm not a jealous person. I have my own success. I have no reason to hate on Kojima. I have no desire to develop games. I write for a living and I'm quite fine with it. I have no reason to hate on him. And it's not him per say where the problem lies. It's his ancient product he keeps resurrecting. If you can t handle it, perhaps it is you who shouldn't be in the thread. Take your emotions out of the conversation. It isn't personal.
 
Seems some people are mad at MGS Vs critical success. Lmao, definitely deserves being the highest rated game this year and all of the GOTY awards it wins.

If you don't know how Kojima is peaking then I really don't what else to say to you about this.

Let's be real. The guy got Dev of the year because of his plight with his old company. Gamers and journalists are throwing favor his way out of sympathy for the man. And I noticed the most recent mgs did well review wise. That's great. But if your telling me that isn't a title that saw its hay day long ago, and is just as relevant today as it was decades ago, you're lying to yourself. I was over mgs with 2. That's me...

Yeah right haha you are insane in the membrane!
 
People here are mad because he isn't with Xbox and its pretty clear but I entertain them anyway.
I promise you bruh, it's not that in my case. If there is an exception, I'm it. I'm no where near mad at the Sony/Kojima exclusive. I even said in this thread how I saw it coming and I wish him all the best. I'm just hoping there's more to Kojima than MGS. Something more relevant and timely. As it sits now, Kojima is the same as being type casted. He'll. Snake could prove to be the nail in Kojima's coffin. What if gamers raise a fuss over getting another MGS and Kojima isn't about that anymore? What if gamers want another MGS but Kojima is like, "but look at this new thing I'm doing?" You're not seeing things down the line, and instead invest petty emotions on an arrangement that will have its day regardless of who's a fan and who's not.

In the gaming world you and anybody here that don't think this is a potentially big thing are in the minority.
 
Sony snatched him up you will not see his upcoming game on any other console.

That one game, then it's back to multiplatform games.

I don't even care if it's exclusive, honestly it makes more sense to do his first game exclusive. That way they can focus work on developing a new IP, instead of worrying about 5 different cross platform releases at the same time. He has to reestablish his studio and that's the best way to do it and generate income before he can start doing lavish things like working on movies, supporting all platforms and all the other crazy ideas he has.

Of course it's a big deal. Who said any different? I'm simply stating that based on what Kojima has given us so far, I'm not too excited for the possibilities of anything more than a war hero with PTSD and split personality disorder who likes to hide in boxes from over sized mechs.
 
Possibly unless the game is so good that him and Sony decide to continue the relationship kinda like Epic/MS did.

That is one game though and it's not like it isn't going to be on PC as well.

When have they ever worked on just one game? In the past decade they have landed on 15 different platforms.

"One way or another, everything will end up being multiplatform" - Kojima

Not reading the entire thread. Any teases as to the potential game?

It's something with Mechs and military ideas in it.
