Kojima's new game will be published by Sony, is also coming to PC, not Silent Hill
- Thread starter texhnolyze

Great more money for Kojima with two great platforms to release on.
I hope he can make the PS4 version of whatever he makes sing by focusing on that first.
Yes. I think now is the right time to sell.
If you used a bit more brain power, you'd realise this outcome is actually good.
Funding a new potential AAA Japanese title requires money from somewhere.

That's not happening here at all. They would have happily keep it entirely PS4 exclusive. You should thank kojpro for the PC version.
There's not much of a distinction these days. A lot of current PC gamers grew up with a PS1/N64/PS2, so they were console gamers as far as their background goes.

Yeah.
So it doesn't matter which platform you pick, you're paying for a Playstation version in the end. XD

How is this moronic?
It's a pretty established pattern.
We're still getting a new Kojima game. It's all good.
Weird inferiority complex going on here.
My stomach! The knots!
Uh? MGS1 and MGS2: Substance were released on PC in 2000 and 2003, respectively. There are more core MGS titles on PC than not. But, oh well. These PC gamers, right?
Fun for everyone!

I don't know why some people are twisting this into a consoles vs pc debate. I'm a primarily PC gamer, but I think it's good it's coming to PS4 and PC. Different people have different preferences, I'm happy it's coming to PC but also happy it's coming to PS4 for different audience pools.

But all of these are merely statements of fact.
Depending on your hardware, it either already is, or will eventually be. So yes.

Just.....just give me a horror game Kojima......pls
He's next game will use UE4 right? Should be easy to mod.
Konami letting Kojima use FOX Engine? Doubt it.

Do you know this is the case this time? Or is this just you guessing?
Kind of weird nearly every thread has to be changed into Sony vs MS vs PC.
Exactly like those. People are saying it's "established' and "facts" but then it goes without saying doesn't it?

When people mean superior they usually mean objective measures like resolutions, framerates, and modding options.
Is that a controversial statement to make given the pattern with PC versions of most games?
+1
I hope mods do take action regarding such stuff, it really kills all the discussion

No matter what this game ends up being the drama that Konami caused with this departure has rallied people around Kojima, its not just us core gamers on here and other sites as well, I worked at Gamestop up until about 2 months ago and even the average person who only played games once a week or so herd about it and was upset.
This game doesn't even exist in any way yet and still this is a HUGE win for Sony and will sell like crazy just because its Kojima and everyone hates Konami now.
I love the fact that Sony actually made a video announcing this too, they understand perfectly how smart this move is and in a few years when they can show that game as a big highlight on stage at E3 or PSX they'll know how much they crushed it. People will start cheering the moment they see that new logo for Kojima Productions.

Can't wait to play it in 4K, the UHDefinitive version if you'd prefer it be called.

PC versions running with better graphics and performance shouldn't make a statement about it being better offensive. Take MGSV for example:
PS4 (left), PC (right). From Konami's own site.
It's not a console vs PC 'warrior' thing, it's just the way it is. Using one of the most notorious crappy ports in recent times as a counter-argument is silly, especially with the quality Kojima's team is known for.
It's not needed.
And having the definitive version is subjective based on the settings you can have the PC version on.
See, this discussion have completely destroyed the thread.

Yes it is. As a pc gamer, I really hate that kind of talk. There are other places for that.

In time I hope you understand what this particular thread is about and what currently lead to what we're discussing.

Other than AK, what other releases in the last year or 2 are not "superior" or "best" on PC?
They probably wanted Silent Hills so they could cash in those overreaction views, anyway.
Doesn't it always?

He thinks he is so above it he doesn't even acknowledge "platform warriors". To him it's just "console warriors".
Aaand apparently he doesn't even think that even factual statements can make you look bad depending on context. Or at least pretends not to.

It's more about keeping the game off Xbox than it is about supporting PC.

Ok. But the criteria I mentioned are not subjective. Those are measurable and identifiable.
This whole topic is confirming that it's on the PC platform.
The discussion you're trying to squash make no sense since it's relevant to the topic at hand, that Kojima's new game will in fact in be on PC.
It's already turned into that.
It's pretty amazing that some people are so insecure that they call for a ban on factual statements so that their sensibilities are not offended.
It's just an estimation (or a "guess" if you want) based on the fact that -- unlike some people, seemingly -- I don't for a second believe that any publicly traded corporation does anything for any other reason than self-interest.
No.

Awesome. Now I want to hear it from somebody more crediblle.
And as a PC first supporter,the definitive version narrative is known. It's bad form to make the obvious apparent and comes off as fanboyish. If some are going to scoff at console warriors then this should be addressed as well.

I'm not too convinced about this. If Sony is publishing and funds it for a studio that is brand new and barely even exists yet they would have more than enough clout to have it as an exclusive if they really wanted. They seem to be pretty open about PC releases and they would just prevent additional revenue by not releasing on PC. They have very little to lose and much to gain by doing this while of course giving a big boon for Kojima as well to have more mindshare for his first independent game and studio.
So you're saying I should feel bad for thinking this way? Damn. Sorry for somehow pissing in your cereal.
Jesus, Tizoc knew what he was doing calling the pc version definitive. It was bait to get people riled up. I'm sure it will be the best version, but look at what the thread is now.
I'm glad this is coming to PC too, and hope he's given the freedom to do what he wants and isn't pressured in to doing a metal gear or silent hill like.
