Well, now Kojima has officially left Konami, and Konami shut down Kojima Productions: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/hideo-k...0-6431536/
Because making $180 million in a few days, or something like that, isn't something Konami wants to do anymore. Konami now only makes mobile games and PES, that's it.
... How far Konami has fallen in only a few years... pretty sad, really. I know game development now is expensive, but just giving up entirely for no reason other than "Mobile is the future!"? That's just awful.
Now, there are other reasons to dislike Konami, as Jim Sterling has detailed before, but now they don't matter much do they, now that Konami barely even makes games anymore...
