Support NeoGAF

[Solid]

The more I think of it the more right it seems. MGS has a lot of talented western developers and I think Silicon Knights should fit pretty good next to Rare. Then SK would get all the financial support from MS to make more awesome games. Plus, SK seem to be more of a PC-programmer if you ask me, so maybe Xbox/Xbox 2 is the best hardware for them (since it's quite easy to develop for).

How many approve this idea?

 

[Shompola]

Well if they made a modern sequel to Dark Legion game sure why not.

After the Rare deal... I doubt MGS would be too interested.

More likely I see Konami going for them, given they have a previous relationship and Konami's hungry for western expansion.

Color me confused.

 

[Kon Tiki]

No. They should stop making games.

 

[Oni Link 666]

How do you figure they're "more of a PC programmer"? Have they ever even made a PC game?

I'd rather them just make games by themselves than align themselves with someone else like they're some special developer. They're no Rare.

Sk should write the storyline for a Capcom series. No touchy gameplay, just story. I'd like to see them write a Onimusha storyline.

I think the best thing for Silicon Knights would be if they stopped trying to prove to the industry that they belong and just make some good games. If that's with MGS then so be it.

After playing Eternal Darkness, NO.

 

[Deg]

Yes. I think they make a good match and will be lucrative.

 

[jarrod]

After playing Eternal Darkness, NO.

Speaking of which, what ever happened to that rumor about Nintendo getting DarkWorks Studio to do Eternal Darkness II? Fleming?

 

[radioheadrule83]

No. They should be platform agnostic.

And not SEGAs crappy definition of "platform agnostic". I mean put all their good games on all systems to reach the most people.

Screw ED and MGS:TTS haters!

 

[M3wThr33]

I say they should just reveal something. Their site still has the Nintendo logo. Nothing was mentioned at E3. The IGN and PGC reports never had the followup clarification.

Methinks the conversation went like this:
SK: Hi, Nintendo. Uhm, Konami liked how we did MGS:TTS and thinks we could sell more on the PS2 and Xbox.
N: Really?
SK: Yeah, so we already jabbered off to IGN and PGC about it. We're gonna leave. Dennis is handling it.
N: We still own you.
SK: Shit.

 

[crumbs]

No. They should stop making games.

After playing Eternal Darkness, NO.

That about sums it up for me.

What's with the hate? I seriously can't see where it comes from. Eternal Darkness has 90% over at Gamerankings.com and have been awarded with many Game of The Year awars. Still, people hate Silicon Knights and Denis Dyack more than anything? WHY?!

Cast? Dreamcast? DREAMCAST! OMG SK TO MAKE DC GAMES!!~!~!~!!!!!1111one

Because they managed like 1 original game in 2 generations. Sure they did MGS:TT, but it's a remake as you know.

I don't hate them. I kinda liked Eternal Darkness, but some chapters wasn't fun.

He is cocky. They are Canadians who can not make realistic snow.

I don't hate them by any stretch. ED's gameplay was lacking IMO. I thought the story was well done. MGS:TTS was competent. Except for a couple graphical glitches, no probs.

Fanboyism aside

I think they should, they were never worthy of Nintendo support anyway. Too human would have taking probably longer that Fable and would flop too compared to Fable which has been a huge success regardless of what those punks promised
