A dusty, beat-up, VHS tape was delivered to the 4Player offices earlier today. At first we didn't notice it because it was quickly buried under an avalanche of Nicks Haribo Bear boxes, but it quickly came to our attention after said boxes were removed to make room for one of David's Kinect sessions.


When we finally located a VHS player we found a static filled, jumpy video showing Hideo Kojima seemingly bound to a chair deep within the basement of Konami Headquarters. Though the image was mostly dark, we were only able to pinpoint his location by the pallets of unpurchased Track and Field carts littered throughout the room.


In the video a claw-like hand just out from behind the camera, not unlike Doctor Claw from Inspector Gadget, and demands "WHAT WILL YOU DO!"


Kojima lifts his face, wet with tears and sleep deprivation, and screams "I WILL MAKE ZONE OF ENDERS SEQUEL!"


The fist clenches in anger and demands again "WHAT WILL YOU DO!" Kojimas teeth bare in defiance, and hunger for one of the fantastic dishes he always tweets about, and screams again "ZONE. OF. ENDERS! THEN FANTASTIC BEEF AND NOODLE PLATE!!"


"NO!" comes the voice and the fist appears again, this time clutching a DVD with the words "Zone of Enders Code: Do not crush in fist" scrawled on it in black magic marker.


Kojima's eyes widen, and the fist, with disregard to the very words in front of him, closes...slowly. And as the first crack pings around the room, Kojima's face changes from defiance to subjugation. His lips part, and out in just a whisper comes the words "We'll probably have to make Metal Gear Solid 5."


The fist loosens and the DVD falls to the floor. The video jumps drastically, and cuts to black.

    The image of Jack Bauer slapping Kojima about has just popped in my head. You aren't just a blogger Joseph, you're an artist. *cry/salute*

    I know they can make another metal gear game, but can the really call it "metal gear solid 5"? I mean will solid snake be in a wheel chair or something silently ease dropping on enemy conversations with his high tech ear piece!?

    This time.
    We will have
    Their childhoods. The game. Play as Naked Snake as he sneaks around the neighborhood and tries to stalk The Boss.

    I don't know what to think though. MGS5? ...?
    I don't know. Maybe some QTEs as you teach the next generation from a nursing home with increasing dementia, since Snake was hallucinating everything, obviously.

    I think they ended the series at a good point, why bother making more?
