Now just the official "Fuck Konami in general" thread #fuckonami

[Super Mario]

Well that didn't take long.

Silent Hill Pachislot

This is bullshit. x(

 

[Geostigma]

The cancellation really bugged me. The whole low key release, hard demo and big reveal was so well done.

Oh man… I can't even… http://geektyrant.com/news/konamis-game-interest-survey-is-adorabley-sad

[Strangelove]

i don't trust them not to make pachinko games out of the most popular choices

 

[Interslicery]

I kinda figured that was the whole point of it.

 

[Hisako]

It was funny that they'd include Zone of the Enders but not Metal Gear

JB (Aussie retailer chain) gives the finger to Konami in an extra special way.

Even more images at the above link.


...and to make it even better:

Kojima Retweeted the original image & the article, too.

JB Hi-Fi, you're alright.

Guillermo Del Toro has an official Twitter now (which you should totally be following - @RealGDT), and just confirmed that Junji Ito was working with them on Silent Hills, and we really aren't allowed to have nice things: https://twitter.com/RealGDT/status/648117433593655296?s=09

Shurely there must be developers falling over themselves to do this? I mean who gives a shit if it isn't called Silent Hill?

whyyyyyyyyyyyyy?!!

 

[Tetsujin]

Kojima ain't free yet.

i didn't really see any silent hill elements to p.t., so just call it something new and make the game

even though del toro seems to have awful luck with games

it's like he's cursed

just like in one of my japanese horror animes

Kojima is "on vacation" from Konami.

I hope his name gets put back on all the MGSV covers when he gets back.

Thankfully it's in the game about a million times in case you forget who made it.

 

[Hisako]

Shit's fucking hilarious

New Yorker posts news about Kojima throwing a farewell party
Konami denies Kojima is leaving, says he is on "extended vacation", claims to know nothing about any farewell party
Journalist posts photo of farewell party

tl;dr, Konami was all like "WHAT THE FUCK IS A KOJIMA ANYWAY"

 

[X-SOLDIER]

Kojima is so on vacation, he's legally not allowed to accept an award for MGSV: http://www.theverge.com/2015/12/3/9846734/hideo-kojima-metal-gear-game-awards

I like how Geoff Keighley publicly called them out at the awards
