I can't think of any other reason why it would be cancelled and with how they're been treating Kojima it makes it even more believable. But I just can't fathom how they could cancel an entire game just becaues of one man.

I thought that was a given, as soon as Kojima got demoted, Silent Hills got canned.
I believe that in about 5-10 years we will get the full story about the feud, there had to be some really bad blood...

Edit: Konami owns the rights for Meta Gear, but I believe that Kojima had a share on the title Silent Hills.

If anything makes sense is that one of the parts wanted more money and the other was not willing to provide it.

They're getting disbanded. Kojima is barely getting enough money to turn on the lights right now, and that's what they're making them finish MGSV on.

Capcom?...

Kojima, Del Toro, and Reedus are all big names. AAA game development is expensive enough, having those three big names would have made Silent Hills even more expensive. Even worse, the Silent Hill IP hasn't been relevant for years and since the release of the first Silent Hill for the PS1 has been suffering mostly declining sales if vg is to be believed.

A collaboration between the aforementioned three was just too good to be true.

Kojima doesn't make horror games and Reedus is unnecessary. If they got rid of those 2 they could have still made the game.

Am I the only one not putting the whole blame for this mess on Konami? Should Kojima be blamed too? I'm basing my standpoint on his role In the company.

And a video about Kojima's responsibility as an artist:

lol.

I meant Konami haha.

Let me edit my comment :)

Yeah but I don't think Del Toro has much experience with video game production. Should have just been Kojima.
