We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
I have *zero* confidence in them handling any of these games\series with respect or appropriate funding, but I hope I am wrong.
Another report collaborating that the whole Bluepoint rumour, which originated here, from the same source as the Silent Hill rumour - seems to have completely fabricated from the start.
I'll take a MGS3 remaster and a modern port of the older games. Disappointing, I'd hoped Bluepoint could have took over the future of the franchise

How are you so sure? Genuine question. None of us has any idea about what is going on, how development is going.
I'll take that MGS3 remake, it is the best MGS. I will love a MGS4 remake with a solid 60fps gameplay as well, while not one of my favorite MGS games I think the crappy frame rate and diluted graphics soured my experience, it was a very ambitious game.
Because I have been down this road enough times to know that things never get better, only worse.
Easy way to get me interested in a new CV would be if Konami ended up calling up some of their old pals at Good-Feel for aid. I always felt that the Konami Kobe ex-pats at Good-Feel "got" Castlevania in a way that IGA never quite did.
Failing that, I can only hope for the best for whatever this "reimagining" ends up being.

Happy that the supposed MGS remasters aren't by Bluepoint. They do great work, but MGS has been multiplatform for much longer than it's been exclusive to Sony. It's a multiplatform series, don't want it locked behind one console.
Also, after MGS2/3 on Vita, I would love them on Switch.
Interested by the MGS3 Remake as well. It's a Japanese owned IP for a Japanese publisher, but if it's developed by a Chinese team would that then force certain changes to be made, based on reports in another topic?

MGS3 could use the Pachinko assets, I guess. A 100% faithful reskin with modern textures, lighting, and models would be in line with Bluepoint's Demon's Souls, Halo Anniversary, etc.. Still hard to imagine any studio touching Metal Gear that isn't supervised by Kojima. To this day, I have not played Survive, and I never will. Doesn't feel right.
Probably cheaper to outsource it rather than having to hire people themselves since they aren't churning out games consistantly anymore.
At least with MGS we're talking remakes, which is harder to mess up.
(Still totally possible to mess up.)
It's a shame what happened with LoS2 but LoS is probably one of my favorite Castlevania games. It can turn out well.
Still, if you are staging a big "comeback" to premium gaming and need to regain all of the good will lost, while crawling from the meme pit, Chinese studio for MGS 3 remake screams "we are on massive budget constraints here". Need to see who is on the Castlevania to make full judgment.
Rumors like this have been around for a while but I'm seeing more now coming from reputable sources so it leads me to believe it's accurate.
I know lots are skeptical of the eventual quality of these games due to Konami's recent output but Andy Robinson said in the stream things were changing at the company due to a recent restructuring, and a recognition that the market has become much more profitable for single player games in recent years. He also cautioned against using the eFootball debacle as a bad omen, as it is internally handled somewhat differently than the rest of their projects. So I'm somewhat optimistic, but keep in mind that Konami does not have the unlimited funds that a Ubisoft or Microsoft has to throw at massive projects. They have to work within a reasonable budget.
Anyway, it'll be great to get a new Castlevania installment, in whatever form that would be. Konami has such a great library of classic IPs it's a shame that they've been silent for so long but it's nice to hear things are changing.

Correct the timeline. Get Kojima and Del Toro back on PT via Kojima Productions and we're in business.
there's an easy pull here lol
but it might as well just be a meme at this point
Souls Hills
*poofs into cloud*
Metal Gear Solid 3 is in my top 10 of all time, but I'd still prefer a remake of MGS1, then remasters of 2-4. I'll take what I can get tho.
I am most nervous about Silent Hill, prominent developer or not. I guess I should be happy Konami is doing anything at all

Honestly I just want a basic as heck classicvania before they go all reimagining on the series yet again
But I'm cautiously intrigued, I was just thinking this morning if there'd ever be a proper new CV game again any time soon or if I should just accept bloodstained as my new god, I'll happily have both!

I'm more than willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. I gotta admit that I don't care too much about whatever they're doing with MGS, but I'd love a new take on Castlevania and I'm very intrigued what that might look like. Since IGA has moved on to make his own thing, a new Castlevania reboot also won't have that bitter "IGAvanias had to die for this" taste of Lord of Shadow.
PT was done. It was a teaser for Silent Hills, never meant to be a full game. Silent Hills isn't happening
