E3 2012: Kojima: 'Fox Engine is built for Xbox 360, PS3, PC'

CVG:While it might not be grabbing headlines in the same way Ubisoft, Square Enix and Epic's engines are, Hideo Kojima's Fox Engine is just as impressive, and according to the Metal Gear maestro it's built for current-generation hardware.

I think it's good that more Japanese developers are creating engines

THEonlyBONBON4330d ago

Making new engines will just push the barrier in graphics, awesome.

PLASTICA-MAN4329d ago

Tis gen is almost already over, we are already seeing next gen games, next gen is sooner than expected and yet we have to see at least one game from Kojima Productions made with this Fox Engine on THIS gen, whether MGS5 or ZOE3 or Project Ogre. He just went to E3 to be passive spectator?
I think when he is going to show sth, it will be already late for him.

GamingPerson4329d ago (Edited 4329d ago )

time for an jrpg come back? I can't wait to see CD Projeckt's next gen engine to!

SilentNegotiator4329d ago

I'm surprised not to see Vita and Wii U on there, though.

1nsomniac4330d ago

Hope its as good as they say it is. I usually find Japanese devs are good when it comes to interesting ideas, but are lazy when it comes to things like controls, fluidity & stupid story lines etc which generally ruins it for the majority of western players.

SephirothX214330d ago

Gears and Halo were made by American devs.

1nsomniac4329d ago (Edited 4329d ago )

Not exactly sure what your point is SephirothX21. Although the stories in those games are generic save the world from extinction, the actual content of the story & the control is undeniably solid. The choices you made are a little unfair to Japanese devs if anything as professional writers were externally brought in to write the scripts & scores for those so it makes ur argument even more confusing.

Louis_Guzman4329d ago

Thanks for the laugh 1nsomniac. But then again, a person that spells insomniac like that is bound to be a riot.

1nsomniac4329d ago

k, whatever you say chief ;-)

8bit_Nes_Rambo4329d ago (Edited 4329d ago )

Pretty general assumptions there on Japanese developers 1nsomniac. If I want a good laugh from a western story, I'll just watch Mass Effect 3's ending again.

Hicken4329d ago

Yeah... don't speak. You're clearly out of your element when it comes to expressing yourself... or maybe just thinking.

RememberThe3574329d ago

I have to agree with you on that, save a few titles. Japanese devs seem to have been wholly screwed over by their publishers.

I think you got disagrees because people still have a hard time admitting that Japanese devs have been playing catch up all generation. For the most part youur right, but it's not the rule.

Konami Unveils PES Plans For Next-Gen, Will Transition To Unreal Engine

PES will finally transition from the Fox Engine to the Unreal Engine, and the game will allow for more realistic player models and animations, enhanced physics, photorealistic visuals, and much more.
Is this the end for Kojima's hailing Fox Engine?

Wheres Silent Hill,
Wheres MGS,
No one gives a F**K about PES

Ninjamonkey821370d ago

Tbh without kojima i'd not play MGS. Im a fan off both games you speak off but, PES is still a good football game and theres a great deal off players give a crap about it.

vivid831370d ago

A lot of people give a F**K about PES actually

RaidenBlack1370d ago

Need a potent dev for MGS.
If an internal team is going to handle the project, then which game engine will they use?
Fox Engine like MGSurvive? Or will they also transition to UE?
MGS series is known for using state of the art proprietary game engines.

Nacho_Z1370d ago

That's great but for gods sake let's have a new commentary team with all new dialogue and more intelligent analysis. Great way to make a game feel stale out of the box when they're saying the exact same stuff they were five years ago.

Commentary isn't important in itself but it's an example of how they leave some things to stagnate while focusing on tiny improvements in animations.

Metal Gear Solid 3 on The FOX Engine is Too Good To be True

What if Metal Gear Solid 3 (argubly the best in the series) gets remade in MGS V’s FOX Engine. YouTuber kur ko04 gives us an idea. While definitely not official, it certainly looks pretty beli…

affrogamer2679d ago

good lawd!! I still pray for that day!

mikeslemonade2679d ago (Edited 2679d ago )

3 is Simply the best MGS in the series. 4 too linear and cod like. And 5 is too boring making you travel quest to quest.

I3loggs242679d ago

mgs3 is pretty great but nothing beats mgs1, and mgs2 is a masterpiece in terms of creativity and execution.

Gitgud2679d ago

my fav is MGS 2, but you shutting down 4 like that is bs. 5 had it's mistakes, but the game is still amazing.

bouzebbal2679d ago (Edited 2679d ago )

MGS3 is definitely the best in the series by far and is my first MGS.
I actually just played the jungle level in U4 yesterday and this video is really not that impressive. It's okay!
Vegetation is actually better animated in the original Snake Eater.
The title is very deceiving, as always *roll eyes*

2pacalypsenow2678d ago (Edited 2678d ago )

Lol MGS 3 was just as linear as 4, in fact every metal gear solid game before PW was linear. And how was it COD like?

morganfell2678d ago (Edited 2678d ago )

MGS4. My favorite title still...of any game. A reveal unlike any other.

Who is Darth Revan? Pffft.

Nothing beats the mind blowing reality of Debriefing Naked Son. A massive sleight of hand 20 years in the making when the truth of the Metal Gear series is at last uncovered. A revelation no one saw coming as they thought the game had ended and assumed they knew the very simple facts.

Kojima Rick Rolled the world. And it features my favorite voice actor from the entire series - Richard Doyle, the guy I wish would have had the same role in MGS5.

Massive Spoilers for the uninitiated

This will never happen. Because you know....Konami

PapaBop2679d ago

Wouldn't it? I don't see Konami making a new MGS game any time soon, if they decided they want another slice of the console market, they'd be far better off taking the safer option and remaking the old MGS games and they have spent a fair bit of money on the fox engine, would be a waste to see it not used.

Timesplitter142679d ago (Edited 2679d ago )

Konami ARE making a new MGS right now. It looks like garbage, but it is a new MGS

_-EDMIX-_2679d ago

We might be more likely for something like that as opposed to a new game.

rezzah2678d ago

Even if it does happen I won't touch it because it's Konami.

hirobrotagonist2679d ago (Edited 2679d ago )

well, that's just like...you know...your opinion man.

And it's wrong.

gninja92, Please educate me more with your seventh grade education on how opinions can't be wrong like I don't already know that since I was quite obviously being facetious; oh great professor of logic. Especially considering I'm almost a decade older than you based on your username. I feel like an asshole for even having to take the time to explain this.

"An opinion is not wrong. right and wrong only apply to facts. not opinions." What about an opinion based purely on lack of empirical reasoning? What about an opinion based on incorrect facts? Sure you can say, "I didn't like Snake Eater" but to say it's a bad game based on criteria that would make a game good, this is wrong. Saying something isn't good isn't purely an opinion. It's an opinion with incorrect assumptions of certain facts.

"Get over it, not everyone dick rides Snake eater. "

I guess that's how Snake Eater is different from your mom. Though she does have the same nickname (Snake Eater)

sullynathan2679d ago

I am actually right. This game isn't good.

gninja922679d ago (Edited 2679d ago )

An opinion is not wrong. right and wrong only apply to facts. not opinions.

You are wrong however for claiming that his opinion can be wrong in the first place.

Get over it, not everyone dick rides Snake eater.
i liked it too, in fact i probably logged more hours over the years in snake eater than any other mgs, but i still liked sons of liberty the most

TheOptimist2679d ago

Wow first time I agree with you lol

sullynathan2679d ago (Edited 2679d ago )

aren't hipsters the one that actually think Metal Gear has good writing, story and design?

Lynx02072679d ago

Today people don't understand what does "hipster" really mean.

G20WLY2679d ago

Of course you have...

Newmanator2679d ago

Google "MGS3 Review Scores." You will see the error of your ways dear child

sullynathan2678d ago

Taking reviews seriously?

Newmanator2678d ago

When the scores are unanimous, yes I do take them seriously Mr Sullynathan :)

thepluggy2679d ago

You were probably to young to have played it.

Can't even spell correctly.
