Kojima just shot himself in the foot.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about Playstation culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in Xbox where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Playstation, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the PlayStation fans, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Death Stranding 2, nor will they purchase any of KojiPro's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Kojima has alienated an entire fanbase with this move.

Kojima, publicly apologize and cancel the cloud game for Xbox or you can kiss your business goodbye.

I don't care what he keeps saying in both camps. This man has lately just kept babbling. Just show anything you are working on and stop doing politics.

Lol


It was MSX though...

In 1986, he was hired by Konami, for which he designed and wrote Metal Gear (1987) for the MSX2, a game that laid the foundations for stealth games and the Metal Gear series, his best known and most appreciated works.


MSX is a standardized home computer architecture, announced by Microsoft and ASCII Corporation on June 16, 1983.[1]​[2]​ It was initially conceived by Microsoft as a product for the Eastern sector, and jointly marketed by Kazuhiko Nishi, then vice-president at Microsoft and director at ASCII Corporation.


Checkmate! He's coming back to MS, the ones who made him!



Lmao. Nobody tell them who came up with MSX standard.

Exactly!

I mean, I know we don't want this stuff here. But I thrive on these people. I love it. It's 2022 and I bet most people going mad over this aint 14 years old.

This is so sad. I guess a big chunk of the target audience for video games are whiny insecure teens but still.

They really should just ignore that. Now those people complaining feel they are right to complain

The only question that confuses me is if Overdose was the new game that Kojima announced or was it something else. I doubt Kojima Productions can make Overdose, DS2, and another new IP with Xbox at the same time.
I think Overdose is still the Microsoft's game, The Snitch has only leaked things that had to be announced recently at the moment, but for some reason they haven't decided to show a trailer at the conference.

On this very forum we had people saying how could Sony let him go, or that Jim Ryan ruined their relationship, or all sorts of stuff. So its not as if hot takes are confined just to twitter :P

Such a weird thing to confirm on Twitter that you also work with SIE. On one hand i understand that most Kojima's fans are playing on PlayStation. On the other hand, fanbase shouldn't be so weird and aggressive for one small experimental project and should support developers in every undertaking.

Always nice when you have to put out statements on your official channels to placate upset fanbabies.

Some people never grow out of petty school yard drama. Emotionally and intellectually stunted morons.

But watching them kick and scream in their desperation at least provides some entertainment.
