Obviously Sony is adding Kojima to the Shenmue 3 project
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.
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??!
Almost assuredly Tokyo for the main office, though they might humor opening a second studio for them as well.
Atlus is.
For now.
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.

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

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

No one leaving that dosh on the table these days.
How much did MSSV sell on PC?
Why couldn't it be SCE themselves? Not necessarily with a definite exclusive clause going on. A bit like MS with Bioshock and ME.

NOICE!
Personally I'm done with Metal Gear.
Any future game in the franchise I will consider non-canon.
Doesn't that belong to konami also. :0

He could use it as an attractive point to find a publisher for his new game I think?
So you are okay with getting a port years after release then?
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.

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.

You can't die before your death
Sony to buy Konami and rehire Kojima back for a new exclusive Metal Gear..

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.

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

Man PSNation isn't giving up . https://twitter.com/PSNation/status/676833980637773825
Kojima joined ND confirmed.
The mystery continues. (Not)
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.
How do you have so many games?! I only have like 10
He gets "review copies" and used to do some "trading" that wasn't so ethical
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.
So kojima knew about the 3ds before Nintendo even created it?
