For 2011? A big fat ZERO. But I'm merciful and give 'em the 1 out of 10 rating. Closest thing to a sale is MGS Peace Walker on PSN for PS3 - but I quite certainly won't have time to spare for something as trivial as that with 2011 being chock-full with much hotter games. At least for my sensibilities.
I say Konami is on its deathbed. They barely produce anything new at this time and are going for high profitability/low risk releases. That's what HD remake collections are. They barely have enough dough to take a proper shot at the AAA market and outside of MGS and Silent Hill, no proven modern franchise to warrant taking such a risk. I feel like core MGS is getting very tired and needs to cool-off some.
I'm really fucking sad that I can't be excited over a new Contra game. Buying Super Contra with a SNES was my first own gaming purchase. I should be over the moon. That's a fucking loss right there.
Am i the only one who, when i saw the fox engine went "oh shit here we go again with another Japanese developer taking 40 years to make one game because they wasted all the time on a shitty tech engine". I am of course referencing the crystal tools debacle that was FF13's tech engine and overly bloated development time.
I'm not going to lie, I'm kinda excited about those HD collections.
If it's not the Sub edition I'm not buying. They can easily make the Sub editions as the HD editions. If it's just the original version, fuck that shit. I got my Sub editions for MGS2 and MGS3.
As someone who hasn't played any mech games what does that even mean?
ZOE2 is really fast, without spoiling you get an ability to move as fast as light in short bursts...its a gameplay ability too. The action is really fast too and not-clunky. These are like the Gundams in Gundam Wing/Gundam 00 but better looking (debateable).
It's like you're in a god mech and you're always fighting to the bitter end in very fast combat. The story is okay, I mean...it's a Kojima story but the gameplay is fan-fucking-tastic.

I'm just glad my friend talked me out of going to Konami's viewing party in Toronto. It would've been awful, and not in a funny way. Just all the way awful. But that band is still Megadeth, so I guess all is well.
TRANSFARRING wish i had this long time ago so awesome. also, FOX ENGINE looks so amazing! have mad respect for the people over at Konami. Konami is one of my favorite gaming companies of all time. I love you Konami :))
Holy shit this company has no creative vision what-so-ever.
Uh dude...next-gen engine and the ability to transfarr between handheld and console? Kojima created that.
You mean a next-gen engine that's going to be used for another MGS game? Yes, very creative there. The ability to transfer between handheld and console isn't new and there are several other PSP and NGP games that do the same thing.
After watching the 2011 conference, I just had to go back and watch 2010, and one thing led to another and I wound up on the wikipedia page. I literally exploded with laughter.

I pray to god no one ever tries to correct it. It is simply perfect the way it is.
