Hideo Kojima Leaving Konami

Hideo Kojima Leaving Konami

, , , , , 0

Say it isn’t so — things seemed to be going so well! Japanese superstar game developer Hideo Kojima was about to enter new territory with Silent Hills, a hotly anticipated new game in the Silent Hill series and believed by most to be the shot in the arm the ailing franchise needs. The fifth game in his signature Metal Gear Solid series, The Phantom Pain, is also on track to debut this fall on PS4. Could he really be leaving? If you take a peek at Konami’s website, the signs aren’t too good. The Kojima Productions site now redirects to Konami’s Metal Gear site. On that site, all promotional materials for Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes and Metal Gear Solid: The Legacy Collection have Kojima’s name and production company removed now. Kojima said MGS5 would be the final Metal Gear, but he has claimed to be ending the MGS series all the way back to #2, Sons of Liberty, which was fifteen

MGS5 Rumor – David Hayter To Voice Solid Snake?

MGS5 Rumor – David Hayter To Voice Solid Snake?

Despite Konami and Kojima announcing that Big Boss would be played by 24 actor, Kiefer Sutherland, it seems that David Hayter may indeed reprise his role as David, aka Solid Snake. As noted on the official MGS5: The Phantom Pain IMDB page, David Hayter will be voicing a character named “David/Big Boss”. If you didn’t know this, David is Solid Snake’s original name before given his code name. Now of course anyone on IMDB can submit edits, but unlike Wikipedia they must be approved. So it’s possible that this could just be a listed mistake, though given the time line of the game it wouldn’t be surprising is Solid Snake made an appearance towards the end of the game.     Thanks youtube user, YongYea.

While it has been confirmed that the story of MGS5 will be a prequel that revolves around Big Boss, a few things stuck out during the latest trailer released at this year’s E3 that points to Liquid and Solid Snake being in the game. Now before I go on with these claims, it’s important to note that Kojima has constantly told us to be on the look out for hidden clues laid out in every MGS5 trailer thus far. With that being said lets take a very quick look at MGS history. The first trailer for the Phantom Pain showed that Big Boss had entered a deep coma. Now if you remember this from past MGS titles then you’ll know that at this time (about 1972) Zero initiated the “Les Enfants Terribles” project, which was aimed to clone Big Boss to preserve the perfect soldier. Fast forward to 1984 (12 years later) and we got Big Boss back in action and seeking revenge (against Zero??) for something yet to be

Metal Gear Solid 5 – Snake’s Voice Actor Confirmed

Metal Gear Solid 5 – Snake’s Voice Actor Confirmed

Konami kicked off their pre-E3 show today, and as expected the new voice actor for Naked Snake has been announced. The new voice of Naked Snake will be none other than Keifer Southerland. You may remember him as the actor who played Jack Bauer in the television series 24. Hideo Kojima explained that the reasoning behind the decision was he wanted a voice that sounded older than that of original voice actor David Hayter. In the video that follows, he expands on this: “The game takes place in 1984 when Snake is 49 years old. Therefore, we needed someone who could genuinely convey both the facial and vocal qualities of a man in his late 40s. It’s different from anything we’ve done before.” httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOuD1hxSS-I&feature=youtu.be Can’t say I’m happy since David Hayter isn’t voicing snake this time around, but I guess we’ll see how it plays out.
