Keep in mind EA not only killed it's franchises like konami did, it also bought other companies to kill their franchises aswell.

I can't blame Konami for firing Kojima. Fox Engine is nothing special and Phantom Pain was shit. Silent Hills would have been the same fan fiction tier bullshit that Hulett. PT looked nice but if anyone thinks that Silent Hills would have looked like that is a fucking idiot.

Remember when Tim Schafer talked shit about Bobby Kotick and Bobby said that Tim missed every fucking deadline and went way overbudget and generally was shit at everything?

Remember how it turned out that Kotick was completely right about all of that?

Watch it happen again with Kojima.

Kojima wasn't the only dev who was shitted on by Konami.

They killed fucking Gradius as well. Konami's been shit for decades.

You can only ever beat EA in the current year.
Companies like Ubisoft did it multiple times.

You will never be able to catch up to them though.
They have been throwing babies into the oven for decades now.

Konami is the worst company out there this year. When is the golden poo vote coming? Can't wait to vote for Konami for this year.

The dude who leaked "World of Final Fantasy 7" in neogaf (predicted/leaked FF7 multi-part sequel) also said there was a Suikoden in production but we wouldn't hear of it till 2016.

Call me fucking crazy but I think we'll see Suikoden next year.

Nothing in this picture is as sacred to me as Silent Hill.

Although Silent Hill had been dead for years, and I'd almost gotten over it, the recent teasing and subsequent cancelling of Silent Hills was nothing less than cruel. Konami is pure evil.

No. Konami has been doing all sorts of evil shit because they're leaving the vidya business. EA has been doing all sorts of evil shit because that's how they stay in the vidya business.

I haven't seen anyone buy diehard stealth fans call the gameplay shit. The problem most people have with the game is that it was unfinished and the long resource processing times encourage p2w. Who do you think is responsible for strict deadlines and cash shop implementation

Konami was a pillar of the gaming industry for 30+ years. It's a shame they don't take any pride in that and are willing to walk away so easily.

Almost, they're self implode so they got no chance to surpass the bigger evil, meanwhile EA still lurking out there, seeking for studio to kill next, fuck them.

As mad as i am, and forever will be, for them killing Silent Hills, at least Konami is refusing to put games out. EA destroys franchises then still puts games out for said franchises.

Konami doesn't exist. It exists by name and they have hold of some defunct IPs but Konami as it is known doesn't actually exist.

>They turned completely shit after Dead Space 2
You know what surpises me about Dead Space 3? It's the Resident Evil 6 of the franchise, getting rid of every slightly scary thing and being all about ACTION, ACTION, ACTION, and yet it got some reviews that were 9+.
>>
>>320382883
But there is.
It's just their old logo
Left to CriterionGames

Dice is on it. Open your eyes fool

>No more sequels or reboots of old series
Good. We need new IP's. Beating dead horses is killing the industry.

>people legitimately think konami is worse then EA
fucking newfolk, konamis only been fucking things up recently, EA has made an existence ruining both their IPs, but other companies IPs as well as other companies.
remember EA exists only to remove anything even remotely fun, one of these days we will find out EA actually owns konami.
