This gameplayer article asks whether franchises run the risk of dying if they change the age of the lead character, looking specifically at Syphon Filter and MGS.
"Want to know the best way to kill off a valuable franchise? Let it run its course. Be the impatient child at bedtime who never tires of saying, "And then what happened?"

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD have been delisted from digital stores without warning.
Stupid headline. Should state that they are being updated or discontinued. This makes the crazy people that only read headlines think it some kind of conspiracy to take away peoples already purchased games.
If you want to all of a sudden own them now and haven't played them yet because a remastered is coming out, shame on you. I can't believe people are complaining about this 15 years later when it was bound to happen anyway. "A new remaster is out, quick, I'd better buy the original from the shop."
Gamers: "Physical? who needs physical? everyone knows that digital online games are the future. stop living in the past. we don't need no stinking disc drive"
Same gamers: "How dare the delist a digital game that I own!!!!"

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

An article looking at the symbolic meaning behind the cigarettes in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.
That's a pretty lame article, there's nothing to it other than "I don't like the directions Syphon Filter and Metal Gear Solid have gone."
So this article is basically saying he wants MGS to be like Mario, Batman or James Bond whereas the Solid Snake won't die? Wow it appears you James Cootie, is smarter than Kojima and should start designing characters instead of bickering about other people's creation.
Kojima killed MGS because he didn't want to continue working on the Story of Snake in particular. He wanted to move on and he felt the connection of Snake getting old by the simple fact that he too has grow old over the course of his time creating the MGS franchise as long as the Kojima Production crew.
Milking is crap.
MGS4 ended "Franchise" (Which didn't end but Snake's story did) In the most beautiful way ever.
you never know what he has up his sleeve give the mgs franchise a chance to regroup
