In order to claim TTP's head you all wil have to proof he is lying, so far there is no evidence of that, yes there still no proof either that he is telling the truth, but you know how it is, innocent until proven guilty.

What's this? Why it's a computer showing Raiden from Rising in some of sort development phase at KojiPro's HQ.
Visor aside, the spikes on his shoulders are definitely Rising's Raiden.
duckroll said:Btw, I think it's pretty telling that when Kojima talks about the Fox engine, he specifically says that they're going to finally use the engine to make the next game he's directing. Not Rising. He doesn't mention Rising at all. If this is the big multiplatform internal HD engine that they're making, why aren't they using it for Rising? Because it's not being developed at Kojima Productions.
"Good answer! Good answer!" [/Family Feud]
But yeah, it is pretty suspect. And on the flip end, P* has no real reason to say anything that would only stand to cut in on Max Anarchy/Anarchy Reigns. So, it probably makes sense for both parties to stay mum, at least for now.

Kamiya doesn't seem to be getting particularly trolled by it, based on his response.jett said:

Yeah, i'd say that's more telling than anything. I understand that you'd bring Shinkawa out to talk about the art, but why not bring out Kimura or Matsuyama? Those are the two that have talked most about it up till this point. There's definitely something strange going on with it. I guess TGS will be our next chance to hear about it.
Yeah, that guy makes a new account every damn day and tweets at Kamiya that he doesn't want him to make Rising. And he tweets and some Tekken dudes to tell them to put some character in Tekken 7. And he does both of these things over and over and over. You can tell they're all the same person because they're all equally stupid.jett said:

None of these Konami announcements negate any of these rumors. In fact, they make them more likely than ever IMO, now that Kojima has his new multiplaform engine and that HD collections are officially being made, and multiplatform (except for Silent Hill HD, I guess) as well.

Fixed.
I really hope Kojima's Fox Engine game isn't Metal Gear Solid 5.
I'm going to be disappointed, aren't I?

Yeah, it seems to me that they didn't want to announce the game being turned over to Platinum just yet, so they trotted out the executive producer and art director because they're the only major members of the previously announced team who are still on board.SolidSnakex said:

I wouldn't like it, either. The way I see it, there's really nothing else to say about Big Boss by now (Peace Walker should've wrapped things up in that respect), and dragging Snake out of retirement would defy the point of MGS4. I'd rather see something new already with MGS, since I'm not getting my hopes up about actually seeing new Kojima franchises.

That would be Metal Gear S Atcher.

Should they do so, I'd rather they not call a retread MGS5. Maybe something like a portable title as Peace Walker was (maybe as an NGP game), but not a console release.

What I mean is the introduction of a new lead altogether, actually. Can't say Raiden's child soldier story sounds all that fascinating (his cyborg ninja conversion story in Rising seems like it'll be all I'd care to know).
If I were to picture something that were to advance the series while not falling too far back in the timeline or drifting toward the series' usual comfort zone, I'd say neither another prequel centering on Big Boss nor a sequel forcing Snake out of retirement. Instead, a focus on introducing a new cast with a female lead formerly connected to the FROGs from MGS4, chronicling her liberation from the unit and subsequent return to the battlefield. Of course, I'm certain that it would be a cold day in hell before anything like that were to ever happen.

They've got stories about The Boss that they could tell. Raiden is already getting his own game, so it's about time that The Boss gets hers. But I know it'll never happen. :/

Why Konami. Why? Why dost thou tempt me with foul anger? That picture screams "but dude raiden!" While the other dude screams Snatcher mother fucker.
I think there are a lot of characters in the franchise who could spawn interesting spinoffs:
- The Boss during WW2. Superhero style story with the Cobra unit vs crazy Nazi supervillain enemies.
- Ocelot post-MGS3. Covert spy story with a focus on sabotage and gun duels during the 70s and 80s in urban settings.
- Gray Fox pre-MG1. Travelling assassin ninja.
The problem is that Kojima Productions will never have the balls to actually tap the MGS universe without using Snake at all. They tried that with Rising, and look how difficult it is for them. It's really a pity.

I just don't know GAF. Can I tell him Metal Gear games existed before MGS1, and that Kojima created them?

Unless by cosmic coincidence TTP's source is the same as my own, I have independent "verification" of the rumor, just as far as the P* working on Rising part of it goes. I have known this guy for years, and he's shared with me quite a few things that came out later. I have no reason to doubt his word, and the way he told it, this wasn't some hot scoop, it was practically an open secret in certain circles.
