A lot of controversy arose over Kojima Productions&#8217; rumored title in particular, so I contacted Konami and just received an e-mail back.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Konami [does] not provide official comments on speculation or rumors.&#8221;  That right there was unfortunately the reply that Konami had to give, but the rep did thank me for getting the stories in touch with them.<\/p>\n<p>What does this mean?  Unfortunately&#8230;just about nothing, but that was expected.  A confirmation of the stories being true would be far too unlikely and a denial of their existence may have drawn a different type of suspicion.  Thus the safest answer for a company to give (and the most unfortunate to hear) is &#8220;no comment&#8221;.  This might not be what you wanted, but at the very least, I wanted to provide you with what I could from the company, since I&#8217;m the one who broke both stories in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>Both rumors were highly discussed throughout the internet, with nearly everyone being pro-Z.O.E.3 (and MGS5 for that matter) and many gamers showing some kind of interest in the controversial, &#8220;taboo&#8221; Hideo Kojima game.  Of course there were also people who definitely didn&#8217;t care for the rumored Kojima Productions title.<\/p>\n<p>For now we&#8217;ll have to just wait and see what comes, but feel free to discuss your thoughts on either game proposed in the mean time.  If PGN hears anything else, you&#8217;ll definitely know about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For related stories: Hideo Kojima&#8217;s secret game unveiled?&#8221; Zone of Enders 3 development update The latest on Metal Gear Solid 5 On December 4th, Paul Gale Network received a couple of rumors regarding Zone of Enders 3 and Hideo Kojima&#8217;s current game in development.
