Here's the Kojima Productions Podcast which probably most of you missed.

http://n4g.com/NewsCom-3353...

They were just throwing things out there to see how people react.
Which will probably give them an idea of what people really want.

edit:
Japanese podcast also up, for those who are interested.

The updated letters already showed up in the Famitsu interview:

Shows the pics on the first 2 pages, click on the pick to zoom.

Tell me another system name that's 7 letters in which would be used by the Japanese then, idiot.

I never tried to argue what I guess was right anyway. Like I said, Kojima could be just messing w/ the readers like always by making people think that anyway; and having that little possibility made you wet your pants all over it, stop being stupid.

I never said I translated the blanks. I made it clear that it was only my guess to fill the blanks to where it made sense. How hard was that to understand @sshole?

Quit trying to make something into what it's not.

I clearly posted before the translation that everything inside () will be my own guess and not the actual article. I put in the xxx where there should be. I tried filling in the blanks to where the sentence would make sense because without knowing Japanese grammar you can't even guess the blanks even if you wanted to.

I was only trying my best to make sense out of the sentences filled with blanks, and I provided info...

No, I am just being neutral. I am not going to go manipulate news just like a lot of other people on the net.

I was the one that did the translations, found and provided legible pics to where I got my source so people can cross reference; while many others on different sites just copy and pasted while changing some words (and not providing legible pics or their source).

I don't have a site and not trying to be famous, I am only translating cuz I would want somebody e...

I filed this under Images, and if you can actually read the damn thing there are hints pointing everywhere.

If you also listened to the Kojima Productions Podcast they said they are throwing out all these hints to see people's reactions, basically surveying by not directly asking.

Anything goes until Kojima tells us what it is at E3. If the hints are pointing everywhere, there is no point denying info to others just because YOU THINK it's on one system or the other. ...

You cannot kill Raikov in MGS3, if you do game ends in "Time Paradox" if I remembered correctly (hehe further supports my theory).

I thought I read it in the MGS4 Database that Raikov was killed by Naked Snake when he died, but I just double checked on "Raikov" on the Database and didn't see it. I have to search now where I read that from =/

Also if you read the MGS4 Database of Raikov, it says that he is Volgin's lover, as it is also known from M...

Raiden WAS a clone/genetic engineered kid trained for combat.

Like I always said, Raiden is the genetic bastard love child of Volgin and Raikov. =)

Oh hahaha I've never thought of this until now, what if that was Raikov after Naked Snake supposedly killed him?

Check out this pic:

Volgin's got blue eyes + lig...

After listening to the podcast, to me they kinda made it clear that they are doing these (hints or misdirection depending on how you look at it) to see the feed back and see how people would react to the idea while not actually asking consumers directly.

It's a pretty cleaver way to do a survey w/o pissing off or letting people down by actually asking the question.

Somebody if anything is coming up, the girl replied:
"This week we have a party, for the completion of MGST"

MGST!!! So "Solid" is still in there and wonder what "T" is.
Anyway, I don't Konami will pass the chance and not release a MGS4 subsistance of some sort, they've always done it w/ this franchise and there is no reason they would pass up milking the cow a little more.

I did find hi-res scans of the interview of Kojima t...

Complaining in the contributor forums yesterday night when everybody else was busting their ass trying to bring new info, about how "There's a ton of duplicate MGS5 stories on the front page. Please kill all but one".
Which got legit stories taken down when they had different "factual info" to offer, and then came back w/ his own lame "speculation" like this?

Talking big on his show about how he doesn't need N4G traffic and how he should be a ...

PRE e3 GS(gameshow)?

Solid Snake just had a little cosplay fetish... of his dead daddy... =)

I'm just kidding, but knowing Kojima this might not be so absurd...
Kojima did say there will be no more story on Solid Snake though.

Little Raiden Jr.!!
7 years after MGS4, rapid aging? Perfect Fit!!
Hehe well I'm not serious about that but just throwing another option out there. Well he IS a cyborg so maybe he can change his eye color to whatever he likes? =)

Been trying to reck my brain the whole night on who the Big Boss like picture could be if it's not Big Boss... I do wish for a Big Boss' new Outer Heaven Saga, but if it's not Big Boss then my only conclusion was that another clone was made f...

The text above Kojima's part is omitted because it's all xxx's. Probably Hamamura asking about the teaser site when the supposed big boss's face pops up.

KJ: At that time, notice that only this old guy's pic (6) surfaces. Flashing into focus. Only this appears, so it's up to everybody's imagination; Like the way his xx (could be ...

HM: Ahahahaha.
KJ: I won't say "please release this", but if it's going to be released I guess there's nothing I can do.
HM: So you don't know at this point?
KJ: Well It's not that I don't know, laughs.
HM: Ah, then you DO know.
KJ, Well, I don't know, laughs.
HM: Which one is it, laughs. Even with that, this is going to make a big impact o...

There's a lot of nonsense, so only for the hardcore MGS fan I guess. Here are parts of the scans and what I can make out of it. A lot of the words are blocked out but I will give the pics to other Japanese speaking people here so maybe together we can figure something out. Hamamura is the interviewer and I'll use HM, and KJ for Kojima. I'll use xxx for the blocked out words. I will use () for my own thoughs.

Also with so many blocked words and having no idea what they are talking...

Got a bigger scan? Where's the source of the pic. If the words are readable I'll totally translate the whole thing!!

Edit: Never mind I saw the pics from other posts, they are all so small though, somebody find me bigger scans so I can translate it!

MGS3 was my fav of the series, and this pic looks like Big Boss after he formed Outer Heaven. So I'm guessing continuous story of Portable Ops which leads me to believe it might be on the PSP... Kinda mix feelings if it is going to be on the PSP cuz I still wish to see more of the game like in MGS4 glory.

On the other hand I am just happy that there are more of Big Boss coming cuz he's my fav Snake of them all, the real bad ass! No fancy gadgets, just pure heart, guts, and skillz...
