I lost it. So hard.
I'd be surprised and not so surprised at the same time. Surprised because I don't remember the last time Kojima made a exclusive game, 2008 with MGS4 ? I wouldn't be surprised because of Kojima's relationship with PlayStation and its fans.I don't believe for a second Kojima goes Sony only. Sure PS4/PC first or something like that.
Kojima is probably the most beloved developer, but he makes really expensive games and goes over budget more often than not. Why would Sony heavily invest in a Kojima exclusive game? The risks outweigh the benefits imo and Sony is probably perfectly happy with the first party studios they have. Especially since the new Kojima game almost certainly will also come on Sony consoles.
I'm really interested to see what publisher is going to take the 'gamble' with Kojima. That said, how many publishers can and would fund a AAA-Kojima game?
Moby Dick Studios about to become a reality.
Happy for Kojima, do your thing dude.
Ah yes, I remember you from the ROTR threads. Wait, I don't.
Will buy cheaply on sale, they don't need my money since they got payed by MS.
He also has a lot of fans on pc. If he goes exclusive I would be very disappointedI'd be surprised and not so surprised at the same time.

But this guys is actually funny.Maybe this guy is Jim Sterling..
Or he could choose to release his new game on all 3 systems instead of just one. Kojima doesn't make games just for Japan so X1's state in japan is irrelevant. It is also very possible Sony approached him because he is Kojima and made a timed exclusivity deal happen for his new game just as how Sony has done it for many developers. It really could be either and there is no way to conclude which is true.
Absolutley amazing news!I'd be surprised and not so surprised at the same time. Surprised because I don't remember the last time Kojima made a exclusive game, 2008 with MGS4 ? I wouldn't be surprised because of Kojima's relationship with PlayStation and its fans.
There are other ways to go exclusive to Sony without working "for" them. Sony would give him the budget and freedom to do what he wants. Imagine a PS4 exclusive from Kojima that isn't MGS. I'm getting excited just thinking about it.Anyone who thought that Kojima would formally tie himself to Sony and get a new boss immediately after the shit that went down with Konami was not thinking very straight. There's literally no reason to do it.
Kojima does not fit with Platinum because his games actually sell copies when they come out. They won't be able to understand that concept and the relationship wouldn't work.Well..................................................................

Platinum games.
The article seems to state that it's coming out on PC too, so no salt here if true.Also, this is really happening...Kojima joining forces with Sony? If his next game is exclusive I sense nothing but

I wish Sony would quit if this "console debut" "first on Playstation", time exclusive bullshit, either you fund it or you live it alone, that's a shitty tactic.
Yeah but it's hard to denyThe truth is brutal.
Final negotiations with SCE are underway for this new game to debut on PlayStation.
Take with a grain of salt but this guy wrote a book about MGS.
- Konami left Konami before the deadline (12/31) angry because Konami prevented his attendance at events.
- Yoji Shinkawa and other KojiPro developers with him.
- New IP, Sony could bid for MGS.
- New studio between Tokyo and Osaka, perhaps with L.A. collaboration.
- Kojima wants total freedom. No pressure. They're talking about this in the negotiation.
- It could be related to Del Toro and VR.
Me toIs it me or are people masturbating furiously at the prospect of his work being limited to Sony hardware?
I find it all a bit baffling to be honest.

Im almost inclined to say the best thing to come of this Generation is Fake Kaz. One of the few great twitter "personalities" lol

It's also the point in the "story" that made it abundantly clear that this was fake.Sony bidding for MGS would be MASSIVE for them. I hope Kojima does get total freedom to do what he wants.
Nah stupid is his styleI wonder if it'll be less stupid and a little more adult (i.e more up my street).
Sony bidding for MGS would be MASSIVE for them. I hope Kojima does get total freedom to do what he wants.
And what about the budget? You really think Kojima has enough budget to build on 3 platforms simultaneously? I can't believe I'm saying this, but Konami has had to put a leash on him because of how he blows through his budget.
