Guys, don't cancel your MGS5 special edition pre-orders.

Buy the SE, take the bionic hand replica, bend all fingers down except the middle one, take a picture of it, and send it to Konami.

Shit, we should get a big collection of those.

the God has abandoned us =(

 

[ArkkAngel007]

I have bought a Kojima-less Metal Gear before (Rising) and it was one of biggest mistakes I have made.

There's no way I'm doing that again.

Anyway:

Any chance I could still play P.T. if I have it on my download list? I don't really want to buy a PS4 before E3. =/

Them fightin words for a good number on GAF

And yes, you should as someone pointed out to me in the P.T. thread.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

The Japanese game industry (non-mobile) really is dying a surprisingly fast death.

Square Enix is saving it.

Wut? Rising was pretty great.

 

[RustyNails]

Konami, y u so bad.

 

[kpaadet]

Konami would you kindly sell off your IPs since you don't really give a shit about video games anyway, thank you very much.

 

[DieH@rd]

GAF and Silent Hill fans right now:

 

[eso76]

How can we hurt Konami the most?

Credit-rating firm Japan Credit Rating Agency, Ltd. (JCR)
Long-term: A Stable (As of April 2015)

I guess don't invest in any of their fitness stuff or real estate.
Also, don't buy their pachislots for your arcade in Japan.

 

[schaft0620]

If they are going to E3 bring your tomatoes

You bought an expensive edition of their game. Who is really getting the finger there?

Spoiler

I'm probably buying it still

 

[The Mad Draklor]

Hey look, the demo for your game was regarded as one of the best and most refreshing experiences of 2014, and one of the scariest of all time.

Konami: Cancel it.

smh

For the life of me, I don't understand what Konami is doing. Just one dumb thing after another -_-

 

[Devilgunman]

Why is everyone saying they have nothing to do after MGS V? They will keep doing more MGS and you are going to buy all of them, simple as that.

If the game sucks, mgs or not, I won't buy it.

 

[skynidas]

why is everyone going over the greasy heart bit? he actually said that?

 

[cooperma]

Resident Evil 7 will be pure survival horror again like the original Resident Evils, so the survival horror genre will still be awesome guys.

Always preferred silent hill to resident evil but that Is good news

 

[Durden77]

Ugh.

Really sucks for Del Toro especially. This is the second time he's tried to put a game out, and neither worked out. He obviously wants to, but this stupid industry won't give him the chance.

Gives us all a bad look for outside minds branching into the video game industry. Poor dude was really trying, and I'd love to see what he could do.

 

[SomeOneInaHat]

If they are going to E3 bring your tomatoes

They'll have an airport sized booth with just one tv playing another MGS5 trailer.

We could probably knock that over.

 

[NinjaMuffin]

Maybe someone will be able to get it from Konamis dead cold stiff body in the future

 

[ZombieVito]

Wut? Rising was pretty great.

It was shit. Did not enjoy it at all.

 

[webkatt]

Is this the game that had the guy from the Walking Dead?

 

[Magnet_Man]

You guys have officially had it the worst of the sequel-starved groups (Legends 3, Shenmue 3, Half-Life, etc.)

Not only was a new title announced that looked to revamp everything, had new engines made for it, with noteworthy talent behind it, and was widely publicized, but you actually had it playable in a small way via P.T. so you could experience what could have been before it was snatched from you.

You guys got proper fucked and you did not deserve that. I am sorry.

 

[Stereogatari]

Why is everyone saying they have nothing to do after MGS V? They will keep doing more MGS and you are going to buy all of them, simple as that.

Hahahaha. The MGS franchise is dead trust me. People will not be buying it without the Kojima name on the box and it will turn out to be crap anyway based on Konami's track record with other franchises after the main men left.

 

[N° 2048]

Is this the game that had the guy from the Walking Dead?

Yep.

 

[NinjaMuffin]

Is this the game that had the guy from the Walking Dead?

Yes

 

[karma2578]

Dear Konami...

 

[ArkkAngel007]

Always preferred silent hill to resident evil but that Is good news

I wouldn't believe it. Capcom has already made it clear that the mainline will be over the top action, while Revelations is their more "traditional" output. Their more horror than previously statements since 4 have never panned out.

 

[Strike]

Anticipating Konami's eventual announcement that they're switching entirely to mobile development.

 

[Jotamide]

If this is legit, thanks Guillermo. At least you have the decency to tell us. Unlike fucking Konami.

 

[Pyramid head]

Wut? Rising was pretty great.

Rising was the only Metal Gear game I liked and a sequel would be the only other MG game I'm likely to buy

 

[cooperma]

I wouldn't believe it. Capcom has already made it clear that the mainline will be over the top action. Their more horror than previously statements have never panned out.

This makes me sad. Your probably right.

 

[Grisby]

Del Toro really hasn't got any luck with games has he? First Insane and now this

The Toro effect.

 

[ricardo_sousa11]

What the actual fuckkkkk !!! I was looking forward to this, one of my most hyped games, p.t alone was a game on its own, and I wanted to play so much more !

 

[supernormal]

If this is legit, thanks Guillermo. At least you have the decency to tell us. Unlike fucking Konami.

That's one way to look at it. At least there's no way to spin a conspiracy out of this.

Spoiler

Or is there?

 

[Sgt. Garlic]

Konami is such a joke. This was probably my most anticipated game for PS4. I'm done with them after MGSV. Someone please buy Hudson and some of their IPs. They're just rotting in Konami's dungeon where Igarashi used to live.

 

[Ensirius]

Terrible news.

 

[Xpliskin]

They will deny it this week I guess.

 

[Deified Data]

To all the people saying "I'm not gonna buy MGS5" please don't kid yourself. You are gonna buy it sooner or later.

Konami is a hollow shell of what it use to be. Silent Hills was probably the first Konami game that had me interested in a while with the combination of Kojima, Toro, and Reedus. Now that it's not happening, we can finally move on.

Honestly I wasn't terribly interested before this whole debacle. Now my interest is virtually nil.

why is everyone going over the greasy heart bit? he actually said that?

It does indeed sound like something he'd say. GDT has a very self-deprecating sense of humor.

 

[JordanN]

Square Enix is saving it.

When their flagship JRPG takes a billion years to make? Barely.

I have more hope for Namco or Koei-Tecmo.

 

[akidnamededdy]

It was shit. Did not enjoy it at all.

Go see a neurologist.

 

[Unfortunately Luke]

As sad as this is, it makes me wonder where Kojima will take his career after MGSV.

Maybe he'll finally live out his Snatcher/Policenauts dreams, provided Konami don't plan on taking that from him too.

 

[Kissenkopf]

Maybe he will finally make a movie...a not playable movie.

 

[Macho Madness]

 

[SnowFlakeCake]

I shall keep P.T on my PS4 forever, just to remind myself of what could have been.

 

[delta25]

I really get the feeling this is all just a PR stunt.

 

[zoukka]

Sad news. PT was the best this gen has offered with bloodborne and Silent Hills was my most anticipated game of the generation.

TLG feels all over again

 

[JNT]

This pains me. It's such a shame that Guillermo's ideas for video games never quite make it out the other end. I just hope he doesn't get too discouraged and stops trying to make it happen all together.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

This sounds like a big ruse now. How the hell could Kojima foreshadowing all this?

 

[manzoman96]

I don't have a ps4 yet but I put pt on my download list so I'd have it for when I do get one. Guess I won't be playing it

 

[Wabba]

To bad for all the players that get a PS4 after this. Maybe the best and most unique gaming experience i have had. Just a great, scary and creepy riddle game.

 

[ZombieVito]

Go see a neurologist.

No neurologist will ever make me like that shit.
