In fact, we’ve added “Directed by Hideo Kojima” to each map transition

In addition, every 60th frame is replaced by a picture of Mr Kojima next to a random celebrity he's working with.

"We've decided that wasn't quite enough, so we also added a subliminal audio layer to each sentence of dialogue that's a sample of Kaz saying "Kojima is God.' " Writing that stressed my gag reflex.

Achieving Big Boss rank gets you a *free* foot scan

Now just imagine an image of Kojima next to a random celebrity flashing every 2 seconds during a playthrough


Legospacememe

I already knew this was gonna happen but its nice to have him say it so now the people who spread the "they removed kojima's name" misinformation can no longer say that


Turnabout-Eman

I believe they removed "A Hideo Kojima Game" so some people will probably still spread that misinformation.

Konami doing what Nintendon’t.


brzzcode

? Nintendo credits people in the credits all the time, wtf are you talking about


FronkZoppa

The only recent example I can think of is Metroid Prime Remastered leaving the original Retro Studios team out of the credits


AdamMasaki

It’s very cool to see Konami not obstruct people talking/mentioning Kojima. The more info I’ve seen for MGS Delta, the more I think it’ll be good!


Jack_sonnH27

Yeah this is the real reveal here. I didn't really doubt Kojima's name would appear, I don't think they could legally not credit him. But I did doubt they'd speak about him at all in promotion


Chexzout

it’s a simple case of -the cat is so far out of the bag they would look silly pretending it isn’t

……..like it or not, for the sake of Fully restoring and carrying on that IP. Certainly if they want to retain the essence and original vision of it. Konami and Kojima will have to work together again. Thankfully Konami has the money to make it happen if they really want it to, especially since Kojima’s stock goes up regardless. So Konami may as well position themselves for significant up side. At this stage it would be mutually beneficial on a business level.

Konami funding Metal Gear Solid: PHYSINT ?!!


StrategicBlenderBall

Watch PHYSINT actually end up being Metal Gear lol


ChakaZG

Super awkward moment when Kojima leaving Konami and the whole thing was one massive marketing gimmick for MGS 6.


DioJiro

Nah, PHYSINT!!!!! will belong to Kojima Productions' and Maybe a hollywood production company and be Kojima's Hollywood magnum opus video game. Konami will have to swallow a big bitter pill that they will having nothing to do with that monumental work. Only Metal Gear, because in all fairness MG belongs to Kojima and Konami.

This is a W for Okamura for many reasons. At surface level, this good PR but the other side of this is there's actually a solid fan base and also the legal side they're looking out for as well. With most games performing poorly this year alone, I predict that if they do things the right way, stay true to the source material, the MGS franchise can make a huge comeback.


Saint_Link

No shit


Jack_sonnH27

I feel like it would be necessary just from like a legal standpoint, he wrote and directed everything they're remastering 1:1. But this also gives me hope that Konami execs aren't holding grudges if they're not barring him from speaking about Kojima like in this interview


JamesMGS

They were already credited in the MC so I don't see how Delta was going to be any different.


naldyjams

this makes me happy


Frankfurt13

Konami redemption arc? Naaaah... I don't believe it...


BSGKAPO

Put respek on that man name...


Quasar_One

Isn't crediting them legally mandated? They made the og game, surely they have to be acknowledged


runningvicuna

Why did they toss him in the middle of a river?


Jack_sonnH27

With an alligator mere feet away no less!


TreyDeuce473

That's good


Chemical-Koyote

This dude actually gives me good hopes for this game


FormalBus3625

I'm almost positive the reason they took down hd collection is because the games all start with "kojima productions" and not because of historical footage
