Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima has said that he already starting to consider plans for a fifth instalment in the popular stealth franchise, despite claims that Metal Gear Solid 4 would be his last contribution in the series.
Speaking in the latest issue of Japan’s Famitsu magazine, Kojima commented, “I gotta start thinking about MGS5... Even though, well, Snake's story ends in MGS4."
“...About MGS5, that would be something that Kojima Productions would have to make, I think.”
Although it is common knowledge that MGS4 is to be the last in the series featuring Solid Snake, Konami recently hinted that it is likely there would be future Metal Gear titles, though Kojima's involvement in any future projects was believed to have been ruled out following previous comments indicating he wishes to move on from the franchise.
We’ll bring you more on Konami’s plans for the Metal Gear Solid series as soon as they become available.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is due out exclusively on PS3 on June 12, 2008.

lets wait and see if MGS4 is as good as we all hope and then maybe we would want a 5. But for some reason, way out in left field here, if this game doesnt live up to the hype, we might not really want a 5.

He is now Dr. Frankenstein. Controlled by his creation...which is great, by the way.

Mmm...Nice to see there will be more MGS with the Kojima touch, although it will be very strange without Snake.
But then, it could also open it up to more possibilities in gameplay etc.
You have to wonder though if he felt pressured to do this...we already know he wanted to do other things and I wonder if he still will do those things?

He will never leave series fully he will always be part of metal gear. He will also start on other ventures as well. Im okay with another MG as long as its good.

This guy is full of lies and he said that when MGS 3 came out and he created another Mgs. He wants to make money and Mgs will never end.

Maybe it'll be called Metal Gear Seniors! Where all the characters are stealthy seniors trying to bust out of a quarentined nursing home.

WTF, I wish this dude would make up his mind once and for all. I think he has got some sort of suprise up his sleeve, lots of "hints" the snake will most probably die, isn't that giving the story away? Why would he this? Where else has someone given away, that the hero of a game or movie will die before it has even been released?

Jaffe and Borlog both helped out with God of War even after they left SCEA Santa Monica.

i think they should remake metal gear 1 and 2 you know the ones on the ninitendo and msx systems that follow big boss that would be tight or one that tells the games story from liquids perspective like a metal gear axis type game where you play as the bad guys
