Kojima: I have three MGS5 concepts, please don't use them
by Justin McElroy 
{ Sep 26th 2008 at 11:00AM }
He so badly wants to be done with the series, he recently told 1UP: "I have three concepts for MGS5 already. What would be ideal for me with MGS5, though, is that we don't do those. If the team picks one of those concepts, I have to get involved again, which I don't want to do."
Could someone please come up with an insane enough plot for MGS5 so Kojima can hurry up and make us another Snatcher game? Who's up to the challenge? Is Ted Kaczynski still working?

Tim Schafer will be available if Brutal Legend goes tits-up..
Duke @ Sep 26th 2008 11:04AM
I think the trick here is to come up with such a sane plot that Kojima would never have thought of it.

Reality??
BRILLIANT!
Nutchos @ Sep 27th 2008 12:28AM
Hmmm, ok here's my plan:
You play as liquid snakes DNA strand inside of Ocelot as you try to take over his consciousness to make him scream BROOOOOOTHEEERRR randomly every once in a while.
xGeneral DEATHx (Mr ESC Resurrection Force) @ Sep 26th 2008 12:54PM
Floater/Puzzler?
BRILLIANT!

How about some ninja cybersex?
:o
j.howlett @ Sep 26th 2008 12:06PM
i'm talking about a whole game where you can control raiden as a badass. i may be under the influence of playing shinobi on playstation recently so i'm not thinking to clear.
cuso26 @ Sep 26th 2008 11:12AM
No Justin, I really don't know that feeling...
StrangeBum @ Sep 26th 2008 11:14AM
Ted Kaczynksi huh?
Metal Gear Solid V: A Manifesto on Nuclear Technologies?
SimbaDogg @ Sep 28th 2008 11:06PM
haha, i for one LOVED the reference
Bellerophon @ Sep 26th 2008 11:17AM
Dear Kojima-san,
Please make Zone of the Enders 3.
Lots of love,

Oh, hellz yeah. Giant fighting robots cannot be denied.
SlimPickinz @ Sep 26th 2008 11:21AM
Heres a suggestion,
Snake comes to realize that Big Tobacco is just out to take his money and...
Hashbrown Hunter @ Sep 26th 2008 11:35AM
How about this:
Snake versus the HADRON COLLIDER!!!!!!
sirpilf @ Sep 26th 2008 11:46AM
i actually like this idea!
xGeneral DEATHx (Mr ESC Resurrection Force) @ Sep 26th 2008 12:10PM
You don't feel that the Hardon Collider would be a formidable enough foe at his age?
ronald.raygun @ Sep 26th 2008 1:32PM
heh, he would try to go down there underground and just freeze to death. the end
qbert18 @ Sep 26th 2008 2:09PM
The Hadron Collider was just a cover for a NEW new metal gear: Metal Gear Ron
brain @ Sep 26th 2008 11:36AM
make the story uber-interactive
"If you would like to see Snake save the world press 1.
If you would like to see Snake go over his tax returns again press 2"
Hashbrown Hunter @ Sep 26th 2008 11:45AM
2 FTW!
A Pissed-off English Gamer @ Sep 26th 2008 12:34PM
You have pressed, two.
No i didn't!
I'm pretty sure you did.
Metal_Gear @ Sep 26th 2008 11:39AM
Metal gear Solid = the most delicious cake ever!
Hideo Kojima = the fat person who is on a diet, really wants to start eating healthily but that cake is just so tempting...
He has a team that he has said are more than capable of doing a MGS on their own, who is he trying to convince?
Averox @ Sep 26th 2008 11:45AM
The gaming world's Brett Favre
Hashbrown Hunter @ Sep 26th 2008 11:46AM
Only older.
Maverick Saturn @ Sep 26th 2008 11:46AM
NO! SlimPickinz is right!
I just about fed up of Snake';s stupidity, doesn't he realise that while he's trying to save the world and stop people killing him, someone is already killing him slowly with something, cigarettes! I say Snake go on a secret mission to take down the owners of the cigarette company, sly bastards!
Oh wait, didn's Snake kill himself? Oh well.
We could always have Raiden do the job on behalf of him :D
Duke @ Sep 26th 2008 12:55PM
Curious if you played through MG4 or not.
Maverick Saturn @ Sep 26th 2008 1:01PM
I'm thinking, if smoking already killed him, there would have to be someone seek vengence :D Raiden will do it ^^
Vcize @ Sep 26th 2008 1:42PM
*****MGS4 SPOILER*******
Maybe he shut it off while the credits were rolling...
Maverick Saturn @ Sep 26th 2008 1:51PM
Vcize, you just don't get it yet, but I will explain this horror story :O Smoking kills, inevitably Snake killed himself smoking none stop and the cause of his death, lung cancer, this is why Raiden must seek vengence! HA!
DiL @ Sep 26th 2008 5:15PM
they should have a james bondish storyline like in mgs3
Evan @ Sep 26th 2008 12:23PM
Snake vs Master Chief!
A Pissed-off English Gamer @ Sep 26th 2008 12:29PM
How about no more Metal Gear? Seriously, if the creator doesn't want to work on his own concepts, with an obviously huge budget, why on earth force him? As gamers, i mean. As a company, it's obvious: profit. But as a gamer i don't want to play a game whose creator didn't really want in the first place.
SlimPickinz @ Sep 26th 2008 12:50PM
You know you make bring up a good thought here,
I just couldnt think this up whilst sticking to the post topic... But your right.
I would be curious to see what would happen if he "were forced" into making another though. How it would turn out that is...
Duke @ Sep 26th 2008 12:57PM
I dont think its a matter of being forced. He is talking about deciding himself, out of personal drive, to be involved if they used one of those plot ideas.
Colin @ Sep 26th 2008 1:22PM
YES!!! An updated Snatcher would be MIND BLOWING!!! Especially if it comes from Kojima.
fr4gmented @ Sep 26th 2008 7:31PM
I would like to see MGS 5 as a prequel like MGS 3. Make the storyline about a very young Naked Snake being taken under the wing of The Boss.
Antagonist @ Sep 26th 2008 2:14PM
Find: douche
! Phrase not found
Really? Ok then, I'll say it. While I love the MGS series, Hideo Kojima is an unbearable douche. I wish I wasn't violently forced to read these stories.
el serpiente @ Sep 26th 2008 9:43PM
Why is he a douche? Because he shits more talent into his toilet every morning than you have in your entire body?
mdxi @ Sep 26th 2008 2:44PM
Jack Thompson excels at decades-long, horribly convoluted conspiracy theories.
And his calendar is pretty much open, starting today :)
Dio @ Sep 26th 2008 4:51PM
Deadpool and baby Snake.
John @ Sep 27th 2008 3:15AM
How about I don't know a GAME instead of a slightly interactive movie.
Kojima is a douche and Metal gear hasn't been good since the first one.
salal @ Sep 28th 2008 11:52PM
are you serious? you can't be serious. and Kojima, ZONE OF THE ENDERS 3 IS CALLING FOR YOU!
Sniperwolf @ Dec 4th 2008 12:28AM
and you sir are a complete moron. If the Metal Gear series hasn't been good since the first one, then explain why ALL of the metal gear games have achieved amazing ratings, 9+, Also explain why there is an even bigger fan base for metal gear than any other game(series) thats out there.
To correct your sentence, you sir are a douche and have no taste for quality. It seems you can only play games like Gears 2 or Halo 3 which stories are utter crap and is just mindeless killing over and over.
John @ Dec 3rd 2008 4:13AM
Wow, replying to a 2 month old post, huh? Don't we have a lot of free time on our hands?
Halo and gears are shit too, but at least they don't have such ridiculous and convoluted plots that soap opera writers go "damn, that's stupid"
Sorry to burst your bubble, but the game is crap, the stories are pulled out of someone's ass trite, and the gameplay almost nonexistent.
Sniperwolf @ Dec 4th 2008 12:38AM
Wow its clear to see that you are one with poor taste and has a mental disability. Halo 3 and Gears 2 has an almost non existent storyline and both fail completely in comparison to metal gear. You saying metal gear has no game play just proves how stupid you are. All of the metal gear games have plenty of gameplay.
So its true you sir are a moron. Metal gear is gaming at its finest and honestly, you are the only one in the world who says otherwise, or atleast the select few which is atleast 5 people at max. So your arguement is disproven and rendered invalid seeing as there are countless thousands of people who love metal gear and actualy know what they are talking about.
John @ Dec 4th 2008 1:08PM
and yet those countless thousands barely touched the number of copies a piece of shit like halo or gears sold.
I see you have a reading comprehensions disability, as I've already said Halo and gears are shit too, however; at least they cover up their dumb stories with something other than hide in a cardboard box until the ! over the guards heads go away, or leave the room and they forget you ever existed.
At least masterchief and that dude from gears arent the clones of a clone from a secret cloning army, who cloned the clones of their cloned clone, and then cloned him and so on and so on.
Like I said, not even soap operas have such pants on head retarded storylines, at least their characters only come back from the dead 2 or 3 times a decade.
It's just pathetic that you had to create an account with the name of a stupid character from that lame game, and then post here just to refute the fact that the game who's box art you probably masturbate to is retarded.
Seriously, how do you play that game and not feel yourself getting dumber as the plot unfolds? I mean suspension of disbelief is a big part of gaming, but metal gear requires a suspension of conscious thought.
You are a sad little boy, I will not argue anymore about it with you, because clearly it's like trying to tell my 1 year old nephew that elmo isn't the coolest thing in the universe, only he's probably smarter than you.
