Hideo Kojima will ‘Own’ Tokyo Game Show with PS3 Exclusive
Mere hours after the biggest video game event of the year wraps up, massive rumors have begun to light up the internet switchboards concerning the next great gaming conference. Japan’s Tokyo Game Show is said to have a surprise announcement by one of the biggest names in the industry: Hideo Kojima.
Speaking with CVG, a senior US publishing source said that Kojima, the creator of the outstanding Metal Gear Solid series, will not only be at TGS, but will be delivering a massive announcement for PS3 fans everywhere.
We were told at E3 yesterday that Kojima – who made a star turn at the Los Angeles expo this week – will announce a “massive PS3 exclusive that will own the show” in Tokyo.
With E3 still so present in our minds, it’s not unheard of to wonder why Kojima did not take the opportunity to reveal this new title now, during such a highly publicized event. According to the informant, this was Kojima’s original intention, but wanted to continue to polish his demo until TGS to “ensure it’s bulletproof’.
The title will reportedly be published by Konami, a company that Kojima-san’s creations are no stranger to. Little more than these precious statements were documented.
The Tokyo Game Show is scheduled for September 16th-19th.

hummmm …. i wander what this could be …
Oh GOD, E3 isn’t ‘over’ yet that i’m craving to see TGS …
cheers!
let the hype train begin
Zone of the Enders or Metal Gear Solid 5
I’m guessing Zone of the Enders, he’s probably going to want to take a break from the MGS world for a bit. I’d imagine Rising’s leaving a bitter taste in his mouth.
Why so? (about Raiden leaving a bitter taste)
He said in an interview this week that ZOE3 is now on hold. So I kinda doubt thats it.
Going to be a long wait. We still have Gamescon coming between now and TGS
i guess when your big time like Kojima, you can do what the f*** you want. thats cool though cause i know hes a big supporter of the ps3.
Awesome hope its true and can’t wait to see what it is.
I would love to see Zone of Defenders remastered for PS3 it would be a huge announcement I think until Hideo can work on Zone of Defenders 3.
It has to be Zone of the Enders. MGS is bigger in America. Since TGS is in Japan, it has to be something that’ll be REALLY exciting for them.
I think it will be something like the castlevania thing, like he will work on the next monster hunter exclusively for the ps3(japan loves that game)
I’m so happy ^_^
Finally Zone of the Enders 3. ZOE was good ZOE 2 was incredible and I’m pretty sure this is the game he’ll be showing. You see guys this is what’s gonna make the PS3 such a sexy system to have all these exclusives just makes the Ps3 base stronger as some ^^ mentioned this game series appeals more to Japan that’s why I think he’s doing it plus the other ZOE games were PS2 exclusives or so I believe. ZOE 2 was so fast paced and with the PS3 hardware this games gonna feel, look and play amazingly
I call BS on the rumour. But if it was true then it would have to be a MGS5. I think this is someone spreading the rumour because thats what he hoped would have happened at this years E3. I heard that Rockstars Agent will be shown at this years Gamescon. Thats how rumours start. Someone sees something that could possibley happen and they act like its rumour.
I remember them saying Kojima had a lot of ideas and wanted to create a new game away from Metal Gear of course this was before Peace Walker, I hope it is a new game, everyone is saying sequel this or that, let’s get something new
It’s good to see another game from the legendary Kojima.
awesome, I hope it’s ZOE, but I think it might be the controversial game he was talking about a few months ago.
I’m not sure if any of you follow the Japanese media or Kojima’s tweets, but for those who have, it is quite obvious what it is. This is not ZOE, but is extremely likely to be a completely new franchise that Kojima has said many times is his “taboo project” and one that is set to completely amaze the gaming community. He has given numerous hints to this on his twitter, and it seems extremely possible that this is indeed the project being hinted to by the publishing source. Awesome stuff from Hideo.
I bloody give up…. FFS MGS 5 is Peace Walker.
If it’s Kojima, huge and exclusive to the PS3, the only thing that comes to mind is Metal Gear Solid. I’m hoping for an official Metal Gear Solid 5 or a PSN port of Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. It would be awesome if it’s Zone of the Enders 3 but unfortunately, he recently said that it was put on hold.
