I don't doubt it. It seems like their top priority to erase the existence of arguably their best development team over some undisclosed dispute.

RumbleFish3188d ago

Though You're obviously right, I have to say many people tend to forget that the games division is just a very small part of Konami.
I've been in Japan several times and I was surprised when I saw that Konami is mostly toys and Pachinko.

rdgneoz33187d ago

Yah, Konami makes more money each year on Pachinko and other things each year than console games. Hell, they have health and fitness clubs, publish anime, toys, etc.

ThunderPulse3187d ago

Don't most people work like 18 hours a day in Japan? Maybe they're just all tired of working so much?

hiredhelp3188d ago

There gonna collaps as a company if they dont get a grip.
You have a certain level of respect for everyone inc employess to force them to do dutys thats not where they supposed be i mean devs working guard duty.. Snopping emails punishing facebook likes I mean wow what jackass. Glad kojima got out of there if this is true.

twiggytree123188d ago

Yep, it makes sense with the way things have been going in Konami's neck of the woods.

Castlevania fighting game for wii needs to be remade plz

Aphrodia20d ago

well, the new C ontra was made by Wayforward, who have been taking sooooo many of these classic franchises and making new iterations of them. Imo they aren't very good at it. And I don't see operation galuga being a large enough success to possibly give them Castlevania.

It’s almost like Metal Gear is a well known franchise

just_looken79d ago

Horrible news more proof todays "gamer" is just a cow ready to be milked.

That mgs collection is no better than my ps3 copy but my ps3 copy has 0 server restrictions i always roll my eyes when reviewers or these new "youtube gamer" channels show off the information books on a webpage via a trash in game browser or the lack of controller support like it s a good thing.

Also GOG still has a better version mgs 1 or use the duck ps1 emulator.

Well time for the peace walker remaster pc port 480p 20fps needs a rtx 3090 or 6900xt to run with dunovo konami account then a govt id check.

just_looken77d ago (Edited 77d ago )

All the bonus content on the new collection needs a konami server to load them up if you pull your lan cord only the games will work but that is temp as those games are digital goods.

When i said digital i know there is a disc version games are on the disc i was referring to the pc version and the patches after the fact but yes ps5 has a disc version.

Here is the online bit

As long as it's not like Twin Snakes. And I hope they have the option to keep the original PSone voice tracks, which is a huge part of the appeal for me. The Twin Snakes voice tracks sounded worse, and had lame script changes as well.

Babadook7106d ago

Of Course. Go straight to the near perfect source.

porkChop105d ago

It's likely going to be handled just like Delta.

just_looken105d ago (Edited 105d ago )

Its probably like resident evil 2 remake.

for those that do not know fans remade that game until the garage scene but then was shutdown by capcom a few years later bam RE2 hd remaster.

In 2016 fans used unreal engine up until the raven fight it was a full hd remaster square shut it down took everything so why not use there work.
