>The PC release will come sometime after the as-yet untitled game launches for PlayStation 4. In a Q&A published to Medium by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's community manager, Sony declined to say how long the PS4's timed exclusivity will last. Notably, it also declined to say who will own the game's copyright.
>Sony also is not investing in Kojima Productions, so it doesn't belong in Sony's stable of worldwide development studios. The size of the contract Kojima Productions signed with Sony also isn't specified, other than its cost is already incorporated into Sony's financial picture.

Reminder that Kojima has won, even after Konami abandoned himAnd that it is not in fact a Playstation exclusive so it's never "never ever"

Too bloody right.
Let them have their period of exclusivity if they think it will help peddle a few more console sales. The important thing is that they're actually at least going to make some money on PC afterwards.
Exclusivity might sell hardware but it comes at the expense of the developers losing out on sales.
I think things have changed. At the time it was just a Sony partnership but in the intervening 7 months they have seen the public support and love for Kojima and know that is a huge draw so they stepped up their partnership into a full funding/publisher deal and made it PS4 exclusive.

It's fine if you want to hold out hope, but don't be stupid about it.

Trailer and conference didn't say PS4 exclusive though.

>Gladly and openily admit it's coming to PC 7 months ago
>Now they have the claim of a PC version removed from the interview and clearly show it to be an SIE (That's the new name for SCEA, who haven't had one of their published games put on PC since the PS1 days) game along with Cerny, another Sony employee.
Clearly things changed, if the situation was exactly the same today, they would be just as freely saying there is a PC version.

Wasn't it taken down quite literally the next day?

Actually, without taking sides in this silly pissing contest, what he's saying in that post is true.
It wasn't known exactly what role Sony were playing when they unveiled him in December, but everyone assumed that this new project was partially funded (To keep it off the Xbone, basically) for console exclusivity, hence the community manager referring to a PC version in that Q&A that was taken down the next day in OP's article; it wasn't known before today that SIE are publishing it. Also Mark Cerny is credited on those posters that were released today.
By the time this releases, I'll have the PS4K and I'll be perfectly fine playing Hideo's game at upscaled 4K (which looks almost as good as my native 2560x1440 PC games)
I don't mind consoles as long as they don't hold me back TOO much, but I'll certainly buy it on PC too (because you know, I'm getting the inevitable collector's edition).
Not true at all, funded and co-developed by Sony. The trailer indicates this. Things have changed, it's 100% first party exclusive.

>at least going to make some money on PC afterwards
maybe a forth of what it will sell on PS4
maybe
Also I don't think Kojima is a fan of the PC platform but I think he recognizes the importance of it due to digital archival.
Look at MGS4, if someone wants to play it, they have to have a PS3 or wait for the Cell to be emulated on PC. Meanwhile, I can play games from 1991 without issue.

>SCEA
There's your source you fucking retard. SCEA is a first party publisher and development partner. There was no mention of this back then. As the game started taking shape, Sony probably committed to paying for full exclusivity, and so SCEA is now in the mix.
