New Article About Konami Suggests Grim Situation at Company

An article in Japanese financial newspaper Nikkei paints a grim picture of the situation at Konami, suggesting employee morale is at an all-time low.

The article itself is in Japanese and behind a pay wall, but freelance localiser Thomas James has translated the salient information into a summary that's unlikely to prove happy reading for fans of the company.

The article claims Konami spent more than $80 million on the development of Metal Gear Solid V. While it's unclear whether the ballooning budget was a factor in the highly-publicised fallout between series creator Hideo Kojima and Konami, CEO of a Tokyo-based game industry consultancy Serkan Toto has claimed Kojima's fall from grace occurred because MGS V was delayed.

Final Fantasy 12 HD Remaster or Remake in the Works

Final Fantasy XII is set to make a return, at least according to Final Fantasy Distant Worlds conductor Arnie Roth.

Over the weekend, the symphonic event arrived in Pittsburgh and it was during the concert that Roth made the announcement a "remake" of the PS2 classic is in the works, with a number of attendees confirming this wording. Hitoshi Sakimoto, the man responsible for scoring the game, apparently confirmed it.

As it currently stands, Final Fantasy XII is the only installment of the franchise you can't play on modern consoles, and fans have long predicted it was a matter of "when" this would be announced, not "if".

History of Awesome - Mega Man

Mega Man proved to be a wonderful balance of anime and action-platforming that we still love today (despite that box art).
