Hideo Kojima Confirms Snatcher Sequel?

Hideo Kojima just posted a tweet which hints that a Snatcher sequel isn’t far off and that he’s actually going to talk about it in a new episode of Hide Radio which will be released this weekend.

I feel like I've heard all of this before. I don't know how Kojima has all the time.

There's a future MGS project I'm sure

Then he talks about reviving ZOE

He's also helping with the sequel to Castlevania: Lord of Shadows2

Then he also wants to make a Snatcher sequel?

It's been a good 2 years since we've seen anything new from Kojima (for the HD consoles). When this gen ends I don't want to like at Kojima and say "yeah he's the guy who made MGS 4." For as long as this gen is (nearly 7 years soon). And have only 1 game under your buckle is abit embarrassing.

So Kojima, whatever it is (to be honest I don't really care at this point), announce it soon, because this gen isn't getting any younger.

100% agree.

Why are we assuming it is ps3 exclusive? Mr Cyborg?

[firemassacre]

i hope so they can take advantage of the hardware

[-MD-]

Take advantage of that 6 year old hardware, hell yeah.

Snatcher, i hope she don't get hurt.

[outwar6010]

[thrashermario]

not buying anything from this sellout anymore

[newleaf]

who or what did he sell out? Please don't say playstation fans because last time I checked he is still making games for playstation

Not only that, but Metal Gear in no shape or fashion has ever been exclusive to PlayStation.

Metal Gear 1 & 2 = MSX, received ballsack trash quality ports to the NES
MGS1 = PC, PS1
MGS2 = PS2, Xbox, PC (coming to 360 and PS3)
MGS3 = PS2 (coming to PS3 and 360)
MGS4 = PS3
Portable Ops = PSP
Peace Walker = PSP (coming to PS3 and 360)

and that's it for the main series. While you do have Ac!d 1 & 2 which are PSP and thus Sony exclusive, they're not even major games. Metal Gear has always been on multiple platforms.

haters gonna hate

I love how putting a question mark at the end of your article makes it sound like it's OK to post complete, overreaching BS.

This is crap journalism and the website that posts it is a complete joke?

[8bit_Nes_Rambo]

Well I certainly hope it's true. Snatcher was such a revelation, kinda like Bladerunner mixed in with Bubblegum Crisis/Terminator. Now a 3rd person Snatcher with the Fox engine and a fully realized Neo Kobe, that would be exceptional. Make it happen, Koj.

Stop tweeting and start announcing, what's the matter with these Japanese devs? We had Kaz Yamouchi tweeting for over a yeat that GT5 is ready but blablabla, we had all kinds of BS around the launch of FF XIII from SE, and now Kojima goes on and on about what he might be working on. What do you mean a sequel to Snatcher? SD Snatcher I played early 90's on MSX? That was a top down game with turn based fighting mechanics and a lot of text, fun at the time but hardly worth a sequel. A Snatcher game in this time would have to be a completely new and different game. Just start making it, and when you've got something to show, let us know. But for now, shut up & get your ass back to work, MGS4 wasn't thát good, vacation is over.

What didn't you like about MGS4?

[VonBraunschweigg]

1. He tried to mix each & every individual storyline from previous MGS games into MGS4, making the story of the game itself a complete mess.
2. Changing the gameplay from 3rd person stealth to 3rd person shooting. You can shoot your way out of anything in MGS4, that's not how MG(S) used to be.

Those are the main complaints, next to worthless bosses, crapping NPC's and cola drinking monkeys. Playing MGS3 Snake Eater with oldskool cam was constant stealthaction thrills with great Cold War references, playing MGS4 was going from WTF? to GTFO!, so much BS. And I'm not talking about the cutscenes, I loved the +/- 1 hour sequence with Ocelot going Beng Beng and all those guns drawn. And the Gecko's were cool too.

MGS3 was the best imo, next to my bootleg copy of the original MG for MSX ofcourse. Still got the savefiles on audiotape:) Pirated indeed, so all in all Kojima owes me nothing.

[NarooN]

Well actually since MGS2 and it's introduction of the ability to shoot in FPV, you could shoot your way out of anything in MGS2 and 3 as well, lol.

But I get what you were saying, but the series has always had shitty controls, so meh. But you can go through the whole game with stealth with ease.

I didn't like the bosses either, I hated having to fight those retarded "beauty and beast" girls. It was dumb. Just like how Peace Walker's bosses are all just a bunch of stupid fucking robots. Gimme some human/humanoid enemies that I have to actually outwit rather than some stupid robots or girls in oil-filled robo-suits that I have to simply shoot the hell out of.

I felt MGS4 had more cutscenes than it did gameplay, but meh. The story was also a mess, and if you didn't play MGS1-3, you really wouldn't know what the hell was going on at times.

Still a great game, but could've been a lot better in terms of story.

Coooooool.
