Metal Gear Solid V: Phantom Pain

Konami banned Kojima from attending the Game Awards show last night.  So fucked up.  There's been a swell of support from fans and fellow industry developers behind Kojima.  It was nice that Geoff called Konami out.  I just don't see Kojima using the awards show as platform to bitch about his soon to be ex-employer.  They either treated him really really badly to be scared he was going to flame them or they were just to stupid to assume he would.  Hearing this just makes me really salty against Konami. 
 
Konami confirms Hideo Kojima’s departure

Konami has confirmed the departure of Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima following a Nikkei report earlier today.
 
Kojima’s contract with Konami expired on December 15.
 
Konami issued the confirmation to several Japanese video game outlets, including Inside Games, 4Gamer.net, and GAME Watch.
 
Today’s Nikkei report indicated that Kojima is starting up a new studio with his former Konami colleagues and is in final negotiations with Sony Computer Entertainment to bring his next game to PlayStation.
 
Update 10:15 p.m.: Metal Gear Solid producer Kenichiro Imaizumi and Kojima’s assistant Ayako Terashima have also left Konami, it seems.
