Konami
and Kojima: Why all the hate?
Yep,
Konami pretty much banned him from showing up for his own award.
Yes, this pisses me off completely. Kudos to the strange Geoff
Keighley
for revealing the truth behind the ban. That takes balls. I have
new respect for him.
From
IGN, ((“As
you noticed Hideo Kojima is not here with us tonight and I want to
tell you a little bit about that,” explained Keighley. “Mr.
Kojima had every intention of being with us tonight but unfortunately
he was informed by a lawyer representing Konami just recently that he
would not be allowed to travel to tonight’s awards ceremony to
accept any awards.” ))
And, what Konami is pulling is
what we would call De-Friending someone on Facebook or blocking
someone on Twitter over bullshit. It is also like not inviting Kojima to his
own birthday party.
And,
they've tried to erase Kojima from the history of their company is
also shameful. Keep in mind they also demanded
they don't even want him mentioned in interview.
And,
it gets better. Konami made a false copyright claim against a video
discussing the issues behind Konami and Kojima. It was over a few
frames from MGS Rising. What are you scared of Konami?
Here's
the follow up video discussing the strike. And, that it was YT that
threw the strike out.
