Re: Sad news for Metal Gear Solid Fans...
Honestly, I don't see the problem here. The story for MGS is pretty much over anyway; the only way I can see more games coming out would be if they did a reboot. At least he's taking the time to wrap up MGS before he leaves instead of just dropping it (like most directors would have done). And, if more MSG games do come out, there are plenty of directors within Konami who already achieve a similar feel with their games that the series could be handed over to.
He's given us this great series, and now he wants to go on and live his dream. I think it would be selfish of us to deny him that, especially over a series that is pretty much over anyway (and, again, can always be picked up by another talented director). Not only that, but can you imagine the movies Kojima will create?! With games, he's always been held back with what was possible with the technology at the time, but with movies, his vision has no limits!
I think this is a good thing. With the cinematic feel and brilliant writing of the MGS games, we can see that movies is obviously where Kojima belongs. Besides, if a MGS movie were to ever be made, who would we want to direct it? Certainly not Uwe Boll. *cringe*

he said "it's time for younger people to shine and other stuff and he talked with one of 2KGames teams for later when he retired." i hope he stays in business because he's a great mind in industry.
Peace

agreed but still... and about the movie, yes he already done that. film currently in pre-production with Columbia Pictures company and Avi Arad as director and Kojima as writer and they will take their time.

indeed it will be.... there will be no other person..... like him
Re: Sad news for Metal Gear Solid Fans...
I think Ground Zeroes/Phantom Pain will be the best MGS since 2, but this news does bum me out since it means the chances of a Snatcher update/sequel have gone from slim to none.
