First it was the announcement that the P.T. game on PS4 will be getting pulled sometime this week and now this. Looks like MGSV is Konami's last AAA game for a very long time.

In other news, BEMANI still going strong.

They're pulling the plug all over the place...

---

Eh, no loss.

please don't kill me I'm sorry I didn't mean it T_T I take it back help

---

Alessa wins

---

BEMANI still going strong? How long has it been since the last DDR game released in America?

Seriously folks, as someone who's dealt with the loss of Mega Man Legends 3, y'all have my sympathies.

Target Audience: Japan/Asia. So yes.

I think it's funny all the responses to that tweet are unrelated and just asking him to follow people...
That aside, I'm pretty sad about this game being supposedly cancelled. I played the demo and I had really high hopes.

and I lol'd

Asia/Japan, buddy. BEMANI is really successful over there.

got the feeling this would happen. wasn't kojima at the head of the project?

DDR =/= the entire BEMANI line too SpyHunter. Just looking at the past few years the amount of BEMANI games support clearly outnumber "traditional" console games that Konami has published.

Back on topic.
I'm not surprised this project was cancelled. I'm more surprised by all the hype it got before it got shitcanned. You honestly can't tell me that with the last decade or so of abuse to the series that PT or Hills gave promise But, whatever. Neither are around anymore. I say good riddance.

KONAMI seems to be just burning down everything it has right now. How long do we now think they will survive?

---

Laughing a little harder than I should right now.

THEY PLAYED US LIKE A DAMN FIDDLE

This is just despicable. Getting Del Toro and Reedus involved got the non-video game press interested. Now the game is gone. Konami just made themselves look bad to EVERYONE. Hope Kojima goes to SCEJ Studio and works on a new Siren game.

I am actually surprised no one posted the news that Konami has delisted itself from NYSE...

I'm not surprised one bit. They really don't have much of a market here in the US.

Aaaaaaand the new CEO of KONAMI said that pay-to-win free-to-play games were the future of gaming business and that we would focus on them, putting them on the main platform.

Looks like the insider's claims were quite valid.
