Metal Gear series producer Noriaki Okamura, who has been working on the series since 2005, says that the next Metal Gear game "hasn't been decided yet," but that a MGS4 remake would be "pretty difficult" given the "unique solutions" the team came up with when developing the game's code. "The next project hasn't been decided yet," Okamura says. "There is both the possibility of a remake, or of trying something new. The Metal Gear series is like a capsule of video game history, from pixel art to cinematic experiences, so the method we use for each remake needs to be tailored to the game. We don't expect to apply the same methodology we used for Metal Gear Solid Delta on other games, rather, we want to consider what the best approach for each game would be." Konami is seemingly interested in more Metal Gear remakes as a new survey asks fans which mainline entry they want to see get the Delta treatment next Konami finally gives an update on Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2, assuring that development is moving forward, and I hope that means Metal Gear Solid 4's escape from PS3 is close at hand As Metal Gear Solid turns 27 years old, Hideo Kojima says "there are only a handful of people who participated" on the seminal classic who are "still a part of the new 'Kojima Productions'" When asked about a remake for Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of Patriots, Okamura admits that the project would be "pretty difficult" to produce. "At that time, quite unique solutions were required in order to get the desired 3D performance using the technological limitations of the hardware," Okamura says with a laugh. "So MGS4 used a very particular code. Bringing it up to date would be pretty difficult." Game developers are known for their creativity when coming up with ways to get around hardware limitations. One of the classic examples of industry ingenuity is the subway car from Fallout 3, which is actually just a guy wearing a train as a hat. Konami sounds pleased with Metal Gear Solid Delta Snake Eater and Silent Hill f as it reports a jump in game sales: "Beautiful yet terrifying."
