Also: now the game is out, has there been any chat about the wank-fantasy female sniper character Quiet? In response to people pointing out how terrible the character design is Kojima implied the story would reveal important and credible reasons why she dressed like a hedge-dragged hooker. I assume that's a load of shite but I'm curious if anything ever came of it.

The 'crappy' answer

Jesus. I mean yeah, it's certainly a reason in itself, but it's sketchy stuff. I don't know whether to be impressed at the level of imagination that's gone into ensuring a female character is always skimpily dressed or just disgusted because, well, the level of imagination that's gone into ensuring a female character is always skimpily dressed.

From what I've seen on the internet, this is the first MGS game I'm interested in.

But what about dem tatties, hmmm?

anyone have this on PC? how is it?
.

So I saw this and thought Kojima knew exactly what he was doing when he designed these virtual tatties

I think if I got an Xbox one now, Id regret it when Last Guardian comes out also.

the PC version is solid

Im tempted to allow this to prompt me to buy a next gen console.
Hive mind still feels PS4 is superior to Xbox One, I presume?

I think if I got an Xbox one now, Id regret it when Last Guardian comes out also.

Hnnnnng its hard to decide (!)

Then why not get both?

Because I don't want two consoles I want one

He had a serious "falling out" with them. Konami has basically gotten rid of its AAA development studio to focus on mobile games. MGS5 was more or less the last AAA game the company was working on. It appears to have gone over schedule, and rather than give Kojima the extra year he needed to finish it they just pushed it out. The result was that the last 1/3 of the game is just outright missing and the game ends without a single plot having been fully resolved.
Kojima's response to this was to sneak some stuff onto the collectors edition DVD that basically contains all the half finished cut scenes from the final area while making it abundantly clear that the game was released 2/3 finished against his wishes.
Doing that probably pissed Konami off, so they are using the fact that he is still technically on a long term employment contract with them to prevent him from going to the awards ceremony. How they are doing this depends on how his contract with them is worded (which no one other than Kojima and Konami are going to know). But for example, its possible the contract grants Komani final approval on all marketing, and they are claiming that attending the awards ceremony constitutes "marketing" for the game.
Ultimately though it doesn't matter exactly what provision of the contract it is that they are using to prevent him from attending, at the end of the day he is on a long term employment contract with them and something in there allows them to stop him from attending. If he does attend he'll have breached his contract, which would almost certainly subject him to pretty severe monetary penalties.
