Has Konami redeemed themselves?

They killed MGS. Unless they hire Kojima back and let him do his thing, or give him his baby back for free (as they should), I'll always be anti-Konami.

Kojima wanted out of MGS as much as Konami wanted Kojima gone. He had wanted to work on other things for a while but Konami kept saying no. I think he's happier exploring new games than tied down to one series forever.
