Without Kojima, what's left of interest at Konami?

Just Castlevania... but I'm not a fan of the current direction the series has taken.

Oh well at least they have Yu-Gi-Oh!

I reckon he'll also take a few prominent members with him. This is definitely a turning point for Konami.

And even then Castlevania: Lord of Shadows was developped by Kojima Productions.

Didn't know about that! That's sad... Konami really has nothing now.

Better milk Yu-Gi-Oh! to the death now.

So basically, all the good games that Konami has are made by Kojima. Bye Konami, I'll miss how good Metal Gear Solid, Castlevania, and Silent Hill were!



Bet with Xander XT: 

I can beat more games on his 3DS than he can on my PSVita in a month. Loser has to buy the winner a game on his/her handheld Guess who won? http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=193531

The other Castlevania titles are league better. That one didn't really improve because of Kojima Production.

Actually... Castlevania was better before Kojima Productions took over. And Silent Hill doesn't have anything to do with Kojima.

The thing is that MGS is too important for Konami. No MGS - bye company.

Really? This is the worse executive decision since Nintendo fired Gunpei Yokoi.

Pretty sure Nintendo didnt fire him...

Nintendo basically did. They blamed the failure of the Virtual Boy on him, even when he knew it would fail and tried to not have it released at it's current state.
