I know. But I'm not a huge fan of MGS, and I was waiting for a good Silent Hill since Shattered Memories on PS2.

I was really hoping Microsoft or somebody was going to buy them out.

Presses X for respect.

In fairness to Konami, the new Silent Hills was probably going to be too expensive an endeavor to pursue. AAA game development is already very expensive. With big names like Kojima, Del Toro, and Reedus onboard, it was just too good to be true.

Eh... It's the state of the industry at the moment... Mobile games will yield more profits for less cost. 

That type of statement is about as truthful that every US company should only make FPS since it'll yield more profits. Mobile games are inherently profitable, they take the same things are console games in order to be successful (HQ or addictive gameplay, potential market, etc.)

I'm pretty sure if Konami could throw this man off the planet they would do it. Seriously, why the fuck are they doing all this?

I hope they land on their feat! I want to see more games by that time.

Im sad and happy
Sad because kinami will ruin my heloved mgs
Happy because i have not to look at the face of kojima
Kojima is like cliffy b

Well this sucks. Konami, wtf are you lot doing?!

Hopefully a big publisher (I see Sony stepping in on this one) jump in and help the people of the studio out. Be interesting to see what Kojima can come up with for a new IP.

I never knew I could actually hate a video game company until the whole Kojima/Konami fiasco. I fucking hate Konami.

Now I just hope they don't touch the franchise with a ten-foot pole after MGSV. It would be like raping Big Boss's dead, half-prosthetic, FoxDie laden body.

The best case scenario would be Kojipro ending up at Sony and Konami selling the MGS and SH IPs to them. But that's no more than a wet dream.
