I want Metal Gear Solid 5, but only if it adds something to the series from a story aspect, not just to cash in or even "because fans want it".

Why is he talking about a game that haven't even been announced yet? Kojima Production is already working on 2 MGS games anyway...

1 I'm sure that this guy does not want Kojima-san to make MGS5 because he more then likely doesn't understand the story line of Metal Gear Solid, or 2 he doesn't want to get a Ps3 to fully understand the story with completing Mgs4.

2. if this person doesn't want a good story told why in the world is he giving it free advertising?

3. This person must have been traumatized as a young child since he doesn't want MGS5 done.

ps point #3 is my personal Opinion

Hes probably got such big plans for ZOE that he's just gonna wait till the ps4 and xbox Phoenix. Zone of the Enders is in a league of its own son.

Can't we have MGS5 AND ZoE AND Snatcher?

That'd be sweet! :)

I'm not quite sure if there will be a MGS 5. Right now both Metal Gear Solid: Peacewalker and Metal Gear Solid: Rising are more focused on filling in the gaps of the MGS universe.

If there is a MGS 5 planed, chances are it will be a whole new set of characters (or when Sunny grows up?),and set a bit farther in the future.

im sure he will read the article and he will say to himself "that guy is right" and he will not do a mgs5.
/sarcasm

...ONLY for the PS3!!! ;-P

Mr.Idiot STFU!

Did you watch E3? oh right you only watched Microsofts E3....*looks at sony's E3* Looks like Kojima officially said he is not working on this game at all and devoting all his time to *Drumroll* PEACEWALKERS. He also said Peacewalker is more of a sequel than a standalone game.

Again Rising is only a spinoff that is mainly being made by konami and kojima has nothing to do with it. ok owned....next delusional xbot?

P.s. "If" Microsoft had a handheld division they'd be even more in the red than they are now. Its not like there making a profit at all in their xbox division. Yeah 360 sales have been profitable but considering the 2 warranties they have out that are billions in money gone along with all the money lost from the first xbox along with all the fines and being sued....Microsoft is not rich enough to support a handheld division. Their too busy with their failing zune and getting sued out the ass left and right from their lawbreaking business tactics....Only at Microsoft. So again....owned... next xbot?

"however, most of us did not bought this game to play robot fighting."

:|

at least don't make mgS 5. Make a metal gear 3, or something. Or a Metal Gear [Somethingelse]. Peace Walker and Rising are fine as Solids because they contribute to the Solid storyline. I'd love to see more metal gear, just different metal gear.

And as much of a blind MGS fanboy that I am, Kojima's idea that he has for something that's "never been done before" intrigues me way more than a new MG game. He should go for it.

coolrah m$ handheld would have failed big time and would have been the sinking ship for m$ they wouldnt even get pass the sales of the psp even in japan 360 is dead the same would be with there own handheld product m$would fail it didnt they pulled the plug on zune and the same with xbox if true m$ is sega but i prefer sega to m$

why can't he make MGS5 and one of the games suggested..? instead of not bothering with it at all..

just a thought

There is too much MGS solid game being made recently, too much milking of a great franchise.

Excuse me? Why the hell not? There are legitimate fans who want more and there are still holes in the canon to tell. If you don't want MGS5, then don't bother buying it if it's made. Chances are you're just a militant PS3 owner who decided to jump on the bandwagon on MGS4 and didn't understand a lick of what was going on and held the creator responsible for your ignorance. I would love MGS5. I can't wait for Peacewalker. I'm even looking forward to whatever Rising turns out to be. It's not Kojima's fault there are millions upon millions of fans who love his work and want more. That's called success. You wish you could make such an impact.

Castlevania - I would prefer that to the "lighting action" of MGS Raiden

First of all I don't Kojima has ever made a game merely because "the fans want it" or for monetary gains. He makes games because he wants to, at the pace he wants to.

That being said, I want a new Snatcher!

mgs5 on psp its called peace walker

He isn't going to make another one

The PSP one is MGS3 snake eater on PSP

He isn't doing anything for the slasher game called MGS Rising

Saying Kojima had ideas for MGS 5,

"I have three concepts for MGS5 already. What would be ideal for me with MGS5, though, is that we don't do those," Kojima told 1UP. "If the team picks one of those concepts, I have to get involved again, which I don't want to do.

"There are already so many good ideas from the staff, so if we select one of those, that would be really good. At that point I could really rely on them and take the step back to be the producer, which is the ideal situation, I think."

The renowned developer is far from finished with the industry, and will use the freed time to pursue an experimental idea born long ago.

"Well, I want to create something new, and it's difficult to explain since no one's seen it before. I don't know if it would sell very well," he said.

"I've been warming this up for a long time, and I keep thinking that I'll try this idea. But ideas always change, so I really don't know what the final outcome will be."

and with that there you go

Agreed. Move on to a new IP. I'm pretty sure I speak for the majority here.

I'm not even going to bother looking at the list of games you would rather have than MGS5. It was a huge let down to me when Kojima's E3 presentation was MGR and Peace Walker. MGS5 on the PS3 is what I want. I don't care if it's a multi-platform game. Let the 360 fans buy it in a box that looks like the DVD release of a TV show's season, just bring it on.

The only reason why I don't want Kojima to make an MGS 5 is because he has made other games in the past which people have loved and he has yet to return to such series as Zone of the Enders and stuff like that. I don't really follow many of his games, but he cannot just stay fixated on MGS. I mean, Bungie has made only Halo games for that past 8 years and people are starting to get bored of them. They want something new and surprising. If Kojima makes another MGS, we will already know the basic gameplay (stealth), the basic characters (snake, big boss, ocelot, metal gear, etc) and the basic presentation of the game (the graphics in MGS4 were better but not any different from the other MGS games).

I don't want Metal Gear to become like Halo, but millions don't mind another Halo. Since they buy it up like flapjacks, I am apparently in the minority. There will be another Metal Gear...sigh.

Wow. Did I just sigh? Upset at another Metal Gear? Well, in the same way I knew a bad Spider-man movie was inevitable...the same way reboots tend to renew interest,...I don't want another Metal Gear Solid on the PS3 just yet.

Metal Gear Raiden seems to be something new. Maybe we're worried about nothing.

Author should just buy a 360. Wont have to worry about getting mgs5 then.

All major MGS games have been amazing. 3 I think wasn;t his best but it was still enjoyable and fun in its own right. and 4 was nothing short of amazing. If kojima was gonna make 5 then I would be right there waiting for it to be released because he makes quality games. I could see if he f-ed up 4 then its time for him to move on but 4 is his best one yet so keep em coming.

Now that Jim Ryan is gone just need to remove Herman Hulst from his position! And maybe give Shuhei the position he deserved.

This gen hasn't been the best for games, last gen consoles are still out there and now there's been talk of the PS6 and Xbox Two for a year or so. Many games this gen will be ported to next gen and the cycle will continue. The re-release of the Neo Geo AES+, games on cartridge for £70 ($95), gaming is going back in time. Gaming has gone pricing mad with the high cost of games, consoles and controllers. The men and women at the top are clueless.

It’s always interesting to hear behind-the-scenes stories like this, especially involving veterans like Shuhei Yoshida and leadership figures like Jim Ryan. That said, there are usually multiple sides to decisions at that level. It could be less about not “listening” and more about differences in long-term vision for PlayStation. Yoshida played a huge role in shaping the brand, so whatever the reason, his impact is undeniable.

If true, and I'm inclined to believe it is, it goes to show that Sony lost their way when they became more western/didn't respect the PlayStation origin story. Andrew House and Jack Tretton did great work, but they also didn't try to fundamentally change the PlayStation DNA. Ryan oversaw the death of Japan Studio and a live service direction.

I already figured this, good lord imagine if Shuhei took over instead, would've been a platinum era 😩

I miss the first three generations of PlayStation. The way they turned PS3 around, we knew they meant business. We were all worried for a bit there around launch. Eventually from 2008 they started shifting slowly. But since Yoshida was fired, it's never been the same. Still enjoy my PS5 daily. I got a backlog dating back to PS2 lol So I'm fine but new games aren't as appealing anymore.

It seems like we were thrown on to the worst timeline possible where everything is too expensive and the wrong people were put in positions that makes the world a shitty place. We could have had Shu as the head of PS but we got the shitty alternative. Same goes for everyone in power around the world. Doesn’t matter the company or country the majority of us got the shitty picks and the world is declining like never before. I do think PS can come out of this because of their studios, talent and IP but they need someone more in touch with gamers leading things like Shu was. They’re still the best place for console gaming imo but it could be much better than it is especially without the massive live service failures. The rest of the world I have a lot less hope for right now. Hopefully the pendulum swings back towards the good ole days but I’m preparing for the worst.

There goes illuminati distraction story

So now there's certifiable proof that Ryan was in fact "fired", as opposed to when it was first announced that he "retired", in order to save face.

There's another guy who recently "retired" as CEO of another large gaming company, after doing a dismantling job as lead for well over a decade.

seems legit, the business man, fires the one who has ideas to move the business forward.

Jim Ryan is the reason why we are entering year 6 since the PS5 launch and many of us don't feel like the PS5 has gotten started as yet.

I hope going forward, we will see a return to form.
