I highly doubt it ^^

Name another big franchise hes made...

Zone of the enders 2 is awesome. Policenauts, Snatcher and Boktai :) All great games. And MGS 1-4 are legendary @ KLXVER

The P. T. Demo was developed by Hideo Kojima. Not by Konami - konami gave only the license, i think. A new studio with a own team, the future is very interesting :) Hope the best for us :)

I never said hes not a talented guy. His games usually just dont have the wide appeal of a ND or Rockstar game. MGS aside.

P.T. was a curiosity before people realized that it was Silent Hill with Norman Reedus. Thats when it blew up.

Anyway, I hope he does make a great game that sells alot. The more the better



I'm gonna be really honest here. When I think Rockstar and ND (and I'll toss Bethesda's main team in there as well), they make fantastic games (for the most part), not disputing that or trying to diminish it, however, they are above all else, media darlings. As good as they are, their games all get about a 5 point meta boost on studio name alone. I love and enjoy many of their games, I recognize their greatness as developers, but at the same time they are often given passes on things that other devs get showed up on, which I find incredibly tiresome.

Do I think Kojima's studio could possibly receive the same darling treatment. Ya I do, given the love the gaming media already has for that man. Give him his own studio, with pretty much total control over what he's making, unless they make a complete mess of a game, there's a good chance it'll be the next darling studio to worship at the altar.

i understand you now better, maybe. I'm not talking about sales figures. From the attention/love to detail in the video game and the development effort.OK, i hope it too :) Good night @ all = )

Prediction: Kojima Productions studio in 3-4 years will not even have its first game finished

Followed by a resounding:

The way things have gone with Konami in the past, I honestly don't see it happening as much.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

Well, considering he just said that he plans to keep the studio below 100 people, that is unlikely. AAA games generally need larger dev teams than that, or else the games take forever to develop.

Well he also just compared his next game to Uncharted and The Division though...

That's the thing, he's contradicting himself. He suggests he's building a AAA game, then says he plans to keep his team at a AA size. With less than 100 people, it'll easily take 4-5 years to make an Uncharted/The Division scale AAA game. 

Im afraid we might have another The Last Guardian on our hand.

Oh really!?  So there was not enormous hype behind P.T. non Metal Gear Kojima game? 

That was Silent Hill. Not his franchise.

the Silent Hill franchise always sold below MGS mind you

True. But way above Kojimas other games.
