It was one of the main reasons for me to keep my PS4. It's truly a sad day for Horror and Gaming fans alike.

There's still pleee~eenty of stuff that the Silent Hill series can explore; this one was going to go into the concept of multiple selves, as shown by the P.T demo that they released, which is an absolutely perfect example of how the New Gen is perfect for Horror. It's far from a dead series in regards to the potential lore and ideas that they can present.

The Assassin's Creed series is a whole different kettle of fish.

Konami have just dug their own graves. Firing Kojima and cancelling this game will be the end of them. What a bunch of f***tards.

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

Don't worry too much guys, the Silent Hill series is going to continue just Silent Hills is cancelled.

It seems like they're basically going to restart it and remove all influence Kojima had on it, obviously too late for Phantom Pain.


Still sad though, P.T is the only horror game in years that's freaked me out.
And it wasn't even a game just a damn teaser.

It genuinely did get a s*** ton of GOTY nominations too so it would be in their best interests to make their next game similar.

Norman Reedus isn't going to be in it though, they should think about getting him back if they want fans interested he'll bring a lot of hype from Walking Dead.

The next Silent Hill game certainly has a lot to live up to based on P.T but it might be better, too early tell.

EDIT I don't think they're finished.
If they f*** up the next Silent Hill game and their next Metal Gear game and whatever else, then they're finished but it remains to be seen what they're capable of without Kojima.

You are calm and reposed, let your beauty unfold

Legit hugely disappointed by this.

I mean I was never gonna play because I'm a huge wimp when it comes to horror but I was soooo looking forward to watching someone else play it on YouTube or something. PT and the trailer they did were both incredible.

Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive, only hoping as time goes, you can forget

I really hope they make the next one the same way.

PT was excellent because you had to think(or look up what you do on the internet) it wasn't like most "horror" games that just spoon feed you the whole time and amount to go here pick that up put it there advance and repeat and things try to kill you.

Hopefully the next one won't be like Downpour that s*** wasn't at all scary and went the same way Resident Evil did you could just batter everything with a fire extinguisher and not need to worry. Just became a crappy action game with a gloomy setting.

Oh, you have to be f***ing s***ting me.
They FIRED Kojima?! WHO?! What kind of idiotic buttraped mistake of nature would do such thing?!

*Sigh* This has to be the most disappointing thing that has ever happened to the Silent Hill franchise. Even worse than the second movie adaptation. They just cancelled what could've been the best horror game from the 21th century.

Cell: Sacrifice? Hmph, rubbish! On the contrary, it is an honor to become a fraction of my power.

Complete and total bummer. I am not a regular fan of the series, but I was really looking forward to this one because of the people who were working on it. Too bad, this would have been a great point for a lot of new gamers to jump on board, myself included.

It's not actually confirmed if he's fired or not he's still 100% involved with Phantom Pain and then afterwards nobody knows.

Considering he's going to be around until at least September in that case...they would do well to keep him around, the internet is going crazy over this tons of people are refusing to buy any more Konami games after TPP.

I think that's kinda stupid really doesn't mean all their games will suck, MG won't be the same but the series needs to move on anyway after TPP everything will have been covered.

So long as they don't make it some crappy first person shooter it might be alright, same with Silent Hill.


This backlash might force them to be a better company though, they're going to have to impress people.

Given the rumours that Kojima's only working on contract for TPP and Konami's reluctance to make any sort of claim about him still being an employee (which would help with PR immensely), it's pretty much confirmed. Konami wouldn't refuse to give a direct statement on the issue if he were still with them; doing so would solve this immediately.

They're being intentionally vague, they've de-listed themselves from the stock market and they plan to continue the Metal Gear series without Kojima. Terrible decisions across the board.

Yeah but, this is Kojima this could be some strange scheme he's been saying he's retiring since like MGS3 :rofl:

I'd like to know why they seem to have fired him, if they have.


Apparently he told someone involved with MGS (Donna something) to tell people he was fired and she later changed it to say he wasn't, so that's a bit weird.

I don't see any reason to boycott all of Konami's products now though, it's sad for sure but it's not like Kojima did 100% of everything in all their games there's no way he could have that much influence and be fired so I think people need to calm down a bit, it's not like they have no chance of making good games any more.

We'll see how they fare in whatever their next game after Kojima is.

Apparently Kojima is a hard man to work with so for all we know he could have held series like MGS and Silent Hill back in some aspects.

Konami don't make anything decent these days. Or am I being ignorant?

They still do a whole bunch of Yugioh card games. Videogame format anyway, I think they own the card game itself.
