Konami, and how they stink

Is this a general Konami thread now? Because they're only getting worse.

Hasn't going down the mobile route worked poorly for most Japanese developers? And don't Konami have the rights to Bomberman, too? A quick multiplayer download-only Bomberman on all the formats would be a money spinner, I'd suggest.

Also, no more such gifs, please.

Maybe but mobile is where it is at in Japan and why consoles are dying there.

Also didn't we see this coming as heard lots of things about the president and how he hates games and wants to focus more on the gambling side.

Why I guess mobile could cover.

OH SHIT I forgot Konami had the zombie curse of Hudson. FFS Bomberman would be free money. Just port the multiplayer from one of the SNES ones to everything, charge 99p, all is fine.

Chunder .GIF within, be warned!:

I was close to using that gif as well.

The last ever Kojima MGSV trailer was shown at E3 during a YouTube Stream

Why the sad face?

Well Kojima is pretty much done now at Konami whom will likely we butcher MGS now and it was better then a YT stream it should of been at either MS or Sony for his last thing.

It will be sad when we see an attempt at a metal gear without big koj but hopefully he'll go on to really use his imagination elsewhere. He deserves a break from metal gear. He gave his life and his honour for us.

Kojima Productions have now disbanded according to voice actors on Phantom Pain.

Only Kojima, watch the video

I seen this being mentioned elsewhere and it's hardly newsworthy and in my book merely a coincidence, nothing more than a fun Easter egg that's in an Easter egg laden mission.

It was more topical then news, yes.

Anyway IGN have just put up article up which talks about Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro working on a new game together.

Who wants to bet it's just like Silent Hills was going to be but called Quiet Mountains.

Nah, it'll be called inaudible Knoll.

Muffled Mounds.

Ye think this might be a good thread idea? Basically see how much we can rename classic games.

I was considering just flooding Kirby's Rumour Buffet with "upcoming games", but a new thread works too!

Jim Sterling's going to have an absolute bloody field day.

No wonder Kojima's left and Konami's going down the drain if that's what their workplace is like - sounds absolutely awful.

It's one thing to have our hobby spoiled by some dickbags at Konami, but thinking of those poor souls who've got to put up with that on a daily basis makes me sick. They'll get my Phantom Pain money and that's it. #FucKonami indeed.

New Silent Hill, dam you Konami

So, they went from PT/Silent Hills, a genuinely scary horror game with a talented group of individuals working on it to... a slot machine based horror game?

Also, laughing at the number of dislikes on the trailer.

EDIT: Oh, it's a pachinko game. Jesus christ, Konami.

More proof, were proof required, that Konami doesn't give a flying copulation.  I seriously think they've realised their gaming reputation is in ruins, and they're just trolling their gaming audience now.

Also, more appropriate thread title?
