We may get a mgs 6, but definitely not with kojima at the helm :(

FinalBoss586d ago

Unfortunately, it's what we think as well.

Unless Sony does something about it. But the first question should be: Is Kojima still interested in making a new MGS if he could?

isarai587d ago

No, he's done, let him be done

-Foxtrot587d ago

I just feel the overall story is done, I don't where else they could go.

Snake in MGS4 is pretty old, his ageing will not get any better unless they come up with some plot driven device which cures him.

At the end of the day I feel MGSV should have been half a new game and then slowly transitioned into a remake of the original two Metal Gear games so the series came full circle.

SpacedDuck586d ago

I mean based on other tech in the series would that be the most ridiculous thing to invent?

-Foxtrot586d ago

Not really but it just felt like with Kojima wanting to be done with the franchise he really hammered in that it couldn't be cured. I mean I feel it's the reason he gave us the concept of Old Snake to begin with.

The only part of the story that hasn't been explored is what the original Metal Gear Solid: Rising would have been. In the MGS app on PS3 there was an entry added about Raiden infiltrating Area 51 with Big Mama to save Sunny. Raiden gets captured by the Patriots and turned into a cyborg before MGS4. That plot could have made for an excellent game.

-Foxtrot586d ago

While I agree, the issue is...Raiden

They had to make him some awesome looking Cyborg with a razor sharp samurai sword to be interesting after his lukewarm reception in MGS2

porkChop586d ago

True, though having that feedback they could have made him much more interesting in MGSR. It would have taken place after everything that happened in MGS2, so he would have been suffering from PTSD, his separation from Rose, etc. He would likely have been much less whiny by that point.

CoNn3rB585d ago

Didn't he shoot himself at the end of 4?

-Foxtrot585d ago

He had a talk with Big Boss and decided not to do it

Apparently (just looking this up) there was a novel Kojima says in canon where Snake travels with Otacon all over the world in his final days and dies peacefully with a smile on his face

So even then Konami would have to say it’s not canon.

Double_O_Revan586d ago

They wouldn't even let him finish MGS5. He got cut off 2/3 of the way through. They're not going to let him have a budget to make the type of MGS6 he'd want to make. And I doubt he would return anyway after the way he was treated. He has his own studio now. His focus is elsewhere.

gold_drake586d ago

with Kojima?
probably not no.

Konami might make one.

FinalBoss586d ago

Yeah, sad, but most likely the correct outcome.
