So it sounds like its Konami pushing for more MGS than anything else. Such a shame, since Kojima could be making us Snatcher or Policenauts sequels instead, or something new and totally original.

MGS needs a break, so Konami can create new IP. At times its almost as though Konami fear taking a risk on new home console IP, and when they do they seem to be a bit sucky and half hearted.

Castlevania Judgement is a good step but clearly needs a decent 3d engine. Lack of Konami outsourcing doesn't help either, and Rock Rev isn't setting me alight at all.

Beyond that (and the new DS Suikoden on the way), I'm worried about Konami. They seem to be settling on MSG, Silent Hill and Pro Evo. Not good in my book.

Kojima, you need to do a Mistwalker and talk a long walk from Konami, like Sakaguchi did from Square. Only then will something really cool be created.
