i hope konami keeps the franchise going. that way we can have mgs and mgr and maybe even a crossover game where snake and raiden team up.

sdozzo4071d ago

Won't be enough sales. They could make another but would have to tweak the controls.

Baka-akaB4071d ago

The game is having a field day in sales so far , and both Konami and Kojima are happy about it .

sdozzo4070d ago

How many sales would constitute a "field day?" What number do they need to hit to make it fiscally successful and realistic for another?

Baka-akaB4070d ago

At nearly 400k in japan alone at launch it's already easily a success for them .

It's already beating the launch of the very successful DMC 1-4 games .

And while the numbers arent readily available yet for EU and US , every accounts seems positive

Finally it's obvious that while very well done , it's no shenmue or yakuza for the dev budget .

This guy is very funny and entertaining, He also needs to review PS3 games so he can have bigger audience.

DMC review was really funny! http://www.youtube.com/watc...

CrescentFang4071d ago

I like Joe, but he's wrong about the combat in this game...

Hanso4071d ago

agree
you cant win by spamming block he should try VR 18 lol

CrescentFang4070d ago

It took me a little bit to beat that, since you can't parry the hammerheads afaik. Plus they can actually break your block

SAE4071d ago (Edited 4071d ago )

You reviewers doesn't deserve this game. You want to cut everything and especially that cute cat on ps3 limitation!! this just proves how stupid this review is. I already bought 2 mg rising discs to support them so i hope they do well. Love the game..

Metal Gear Solid Can Work Without Hideo Kojima

There are more good non-Kojima Metal Gear games than one would realize. Scientifically, three examples prove a trend, and in this feature are three excellent Metal Gear games that Hideo Kojima did not direct.

I hope so, still cant forget MGS Survive , the first MGS game without Kojima involvement and it was a complete failure, the thing is Kojima way of thinking is outside the box and that's why their games 99% end up unique, original and a almost instant classic. MGS series are full of intricate things that somehows connects to each other, Lalulilelo, the Patriots, Outher heaven, Foxhound, PMCs , heck even Kojima manage to insert DARPA in there lol, a US government Defense Agency. So is really great MGS3 Remake is reviving the series but without Kojima who knows of the end result, I hope Konami have another or more developers insight their studios who can also think outside the box.

senorfartcushion324d ago

It actually can’t. But it won’t matter.

Kojima is Metal Gear the same way that Christopher Nolan is The Dark Knight, or David Lynch is Twin Peaks: The Return episode 8. Artistry is the creation of a thing from your own thoughts and feelings. Take away the original artist’s thoughts and feelings and you have a new thing entirely.

This isn’t going to stop the mega corporation creating a fake version and spending millions TELLING customers that it’s made with the same thoughts and feelings. The masses will buy the idea the same way the corporation will sell the idea.

just_looken324d ago

I guess everyone forgot metal gear solid rising was tossed to platnium games with a story script and that is it.

Z501323d ago

Kojima was involved in Rising tho

just_looken323d ago

kpjima just did the story everything else was platnium games look it up.

Hence i said script

neutralgamer1992324d ago

i think the bigger issue is whether or not Konami is actually interested in fully funding AAA games development. Even this remake is done by a studio not really known in gaming industry. Quality remake/projets vs cheap cash in quick releases. Which way will Konami head. I am a huge MGS fan and i feel like Kojima did long time MGS fans dirty with how made MGS5 and it's story elements

senorfartcushion323d ago

Remakes and remasters provide a gateway through to producing AAA games faster and cheaper.

RaveTears324d ago (Edited 324d ago )

Actually MGS Portable Ops which was technically the first canon MGS game that Kojima wasn’t mainly involved with it. Kojima was only the producer but not the writer and director.

Konami did other MGS spin off that were successful but that because Konami put effort. Just along Konami is not lazy and cash grab, they can a MGS game without Kojima.

i mean sure, but he made it the thing it is today and why people love it so much.

i think its not easy to replicate.

Flawlessmic324d ago

I doubt it could.

Say what you want about the bloke, but his games are uniquely his.

I don't think anyone makes games like kojima does, for better or worse.

Could mgs continue without him, yea maybe, but it would lacking his genius so wouldn't be the same.

Soulsborne324d ago

Well , he already created it. They just have to recreate it? Not like its a new concept or IP. Trash article.

Terry_B324d ago

Yes. It only needs motivated clever people.

Why We Need Metal Gear Rising 2

Demand for a sequel is about to skyrocket, like the good ol' days of 2013!

In case you're living under a suspiciously rock-shaped object, the recent PlayStation Showcase revealed that a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be coming, alongside a Master Collection of Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, and 3. While it is a remake of an existing game, there's a great deal of significance to it, considering the last time a game in the series came out was back in 2018 with Metal Gear Survive (and the less said about that, the better). Konami's decision to pull a Konami and feud with series creator Hideo Kojima has long left the fate of Metal Gear uncertain, but this recent announcement has led to all bets being off as to where Metal Gear can go from here.
