i <3 raiden :)

cant wait for this game!

Yup, 'cause GameStop is always spot-on with their release date predictions.

I swear, I could eat a bowl of Alpha Bits and receive a better prediction.

Oh for Christ's sake, not this crap again!

Place holder date is just a place holder.

GameStop just throws a random date, that seems plausible, on a game that doesn't have an official one yet.

They just want to have all officially announced games in the system so people can pre-order them, and to do that, their system requires a date. They do not want to miss out on potential reserves just because of a silly lack of official release date.

on my birthday cool!

FALSE!Just like the GTA IV date that was seen on a gamestop list a few days ago!This is just away retailers use to make survey on the products,analysing the early pre-orders!

Ugh, I hate these articles. I'm sick of a retailer putting up a date and then everybodg jumping on it saying it's the real thing. It's more likely just to be a placeholder date, just like what EVERY other retailer does. Amazon says May 10th, 2012. Shall I go and make an article about that?

Sounding worse and worse. I still love games like this but that means his part will be 3-4 hours at most and who knows how long till the next one comes out and the quality of that. (See Dark Pictures anthology for a good example)

Oh.

Hopefully that’s what was pitched to MS when funding was agreed on and not just another attempt to get unlimited funding to work on PS games like the scalebound devs.

Bad news

So Knock is his OD. Then they'll get another director for OD: Fall, or w.e.

I wonder if this is just going to be like a 2 hour episode and there is 4 or 5 of them with only 1 actually being directed by Hideo.

Kind of bummed by this a little. Was hoping for one big horror title.

Ok, well, now I’m less interested. Way to go!

I have a feeling he might be using PT material.

Episodic? Just became a rental that easy.

Never played the game it looked boring imo. Cool for anyone on Xbox who's curious about the game.

It's important to understand Kojima's agenda here. He's aiming for complete ownership over his ip. I think OD will go over to PS if it's a hit on Xbox. DS2 most likely timed at this point. He's taking his IP and expanding it across TV and film I still think that's his ultimate agenda, streaming platforms and grow his his IP he and his team makes most of the money. It's not I love Jim Ryan/Hulst or I love Phil now. Yeah no he's using them for their resources and money to build his own company. He's really the only one who can do that in the industry because of his name. If this was anyone else they would be locked on PS and probably even Xbox. It's his own agenda in sustaining and growing his company and his ppl. Kojima doesn't give a damn about Being exclusive to neither platform. It's an ends to a better means for him.

Also wanna add he's really close to Geoff. I think the only reasons why is because his connection to the sponsors, which leads connections to Hollywood. Not only is he using Geoff for by be biggest stage and exposure for his games but also because of his ties to Hollywood, which is where he wants to be. I'm sure he likes Geoff but again he has his own buissness and buissness comes first wants to grow his buissness, that's where his loyalty lies.

It's been on iOS devices for a while now so anything after that is just not all that surprising anymore

A little surprising Sony would give up an IP but, at the same time not really because if you want to maintain good developer relations, give them every advantage.

Oddly, however, Kojimas first move is to drop it on Xbox. What's happening here is confusing, Xbox is winning over Kojima? At the same time, Sunset Overdrive is free on Game Pass. The rules of the gaming industry aren't consistent meaning, I don't think consumers can trust anyone anymore

One of the best games i played last gen. I didnt give it a chance at launch, i actually hated the first hour, but then it just opened up into something so BEAUTIFUL when you unlock the waeapons and vehicles. Absolutely BANANAS game.

I love this for Kojima. Metal Gear is such a massive piece of his legacy as a game developer and sadly, he does not own that franchise. This signals that he wants to retain the rights to all the IP that his new studio creates, so I wouldn't be too surprised if OD and Physint also go multiplatform at some point.
