Holy hell that mistranslation made maelstrom of misunderstanding lol.

 

[DannyDanger]

Obviously Sony is adding Kojima to the Shenmue 3 project

 

[Arion]

I really want Kojima to take another go at cyberpunk noir like Policenauts or Snatcher.

 

[brau]

The thought of Kojima finally leaving MGS behind is soooo exciting you guys!

Finally,something brand new and original by Kojima after so many years.

I'll be really excited when he announces he is working on a horror game. I think that is the one genre where he can make a huge difference with his attention to detail, crazy designs and player betrayal.

 

[EGOMON]

How much did MGSV sold on PS4 vs PC/xbone?
I mean Kojima now know if going multiplate was worth it or not

 

[fantomena]

No one leaving that dosh on the table these days.

Atlus is.

 

[Reset]

..because no one stepped up to pay for the port?

When was the last time Sony put a first party game on PC? You're telling me the only reason they haven't is because no one paid them?! Damn it, why didn't anybody step up to publish The Last of Us on PC??!

 

[Nirolak]

Yep. Someone is funding something. Maybe Square?

The real question is LA or Tokyo?

Almost assuredly Tokyo for the main office, though they might humor opening a second studio for them as well.

 

[Bytes]

It didn't hurt Metal Gear Solid 2, the best game the man ever made. Or Snake Eater. The second-best game the man ever made.

[Grief.exe]

Atlus is.

For now.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

Looking forward to whatever he does next.

 

[chadskin]

Seems odd he'd be in talks with SCE about a timed exclusivity deal at this point when, as far we know, he doesn't have a publisher and probably only has a faint idea of what kind of game he wants to make next.

I don't know, just seems premature. Usually, timed exclusivity is not something you talk about with platform holders this early, not officially at least.

 

[Misterinenja]

Personally hoping for a weird smaller budget adventure game on multiple platforms.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

That new translated post makes it sound like it'll come to all platforms, as it should.

 

[Tregard]

Finally, Kojima is doing Crash Bandicoot!

 

[KurtSloane]

No one leaving that dosh on the table these days.

How much did MSSV sell on PC?

 

[Raist]

It could be a cash rich non-traditional publisher too, yes.

Why couldn't it be SCE themselves? Not necessarily with a definite exclusive clause going on. A bit like MS with Bioshock and ME.

 

[xVaalbarAx]

NOICE!

 

[Ishida]

This. Konami won't let it RIP just yet, though.

Personally I'm done with Metal Gear.

Any future game in the franchise I will consider non-canon.

What about Boktai?

Doesn't that belong to konami also. :0

 

[Bits N Pieces]

It's a little disappointing that other people are going to get to enjoy this but I guess it's probably for the best.

Not to worry, you still get to play it first (probably). #winning

He could use it as an attractive point to find a publisher for his new game I think?

 

[fantomena]

How much did MSSV sell on PC?

About 800k.

So you are okay with getting a port years after release then?

 

[Fat4all]

Vacation, all I ever wanted.
Vacation, happy to get away.

 

[Blobbers]

Maybe KONAMI is publishing the game.

Playstation Mobile also has games on phones and stuff.

It sold very well however it's only the beginning. PC games have long legs and MGSV is going to sell a lot of copies as it gets discounted.

Putting a good game on Steam is hardly ever a bad bet.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

 

[funkystudent]

agreed. Who will he be with. I hope a PT with del toro would still happen.

Thats what I hope happens too.

PT was that Kojima "switch your controller to port 2" mind fuckery but put into a completely new type of game.

I want that Kojima back. And the idea of Kojima + del toro + Horror was really exciting.

 

[hemo memo]

I don't think Sony has the money to buy Kojima Productions even if Kojima (for whatever reason) wanted to.

MS on the other hand....

Edit:Ok all this was just about a minor timed exclusive lol.

Sony to buy Konami and rehire Kojima back for a new exclusive Metal Gear..

[Rising_Hei]

I think he's going independant and that he's in talks with Sony so he can get moneyhatted tho, if he was under a big publisher it would probably release as multi (or not, given that most big 3rd japanese games now release just for PS4).

But he wouldn't be in talks with Sony if that was the case, imo.

 

[Bytes]

So you are okay with getting a port years after release then?

PC gamers seem to be okay with it, if some recent Steam releases are any indication.

 

[BluenoseGames]

Awesome, I'm betting his next game will be PS5 launch title.

 

[Arzehn]

How far into development is this game if they are already having these kinds of negotiations?

I don't think this is going to be a AAA game.
Kojima RPG Maker game in Sony's indie highlight reel at E3.

Man PSNation isn't giving up . https://twitter.com/PSNation/status/676833980637773825

 

[mejin]

Kojima smart as always. First on the best platform, then the rest. take note SE and CD.

O: First time seeing that.
I'll wait till they release a AAA game on Steam. Haha

 

[Raist]

Kojima joined ND confirmed.

The mystery continues. (Not)

 

[ElTorro]

Please make PT for PSVR. Please make PT for PSVR. Please make PT for PSVR.

 

[Grief.exe]

How much did MSSV sell on PC?

It essentially shot up to almost a million early on, then has subsequently seen little change for months even after a short sale period.

I wonder if the bad word of mouth as a result of the incomplete story and the rushed nature of the campaign, the treatment of Kojima in general, or the lack of MGO's release is a result of the very console-like sales tail up to this point.

 

[Nzyme32]

How do you have so many games?! I only have like 10 Lol

He gets "review copies" and used to do some "trading" that wasn't so ethical

 

[BadWolf]

agreed. Who will he be with. I hope a PT with del toro would still happen.

On the one hand I really want that to happen but on the other I don't want Kojima stuck in legal battles with Konami.

That's why I kind of hope he works on something brand new.

 

[RootCause]

.

So kojima knew about the 3ds before Nintendo even created it?

 

[Jarmel]

I hope the turnaround isn't as rough for Kojima as it was for Respawn.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

How much did MSSV sell on PC?

At least 700k copies.
