"The 'Metal Gear Solid' series is one of our important original titles. The most recent 'Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Libery' has been a great success, significantly strengthening the brand. Our plan is to bring out sequels at a frequency of once every two years. We also plan to introduce a second and a third original title to follow our Metal Gear Solid series. Currently we are working on strengthening our 'ZONE OF THE ENDERS (Z.O.E.)' brand and are in process of planning and producing new original titles..."
Game Watch reposts both "Metal Gear Solid Substance" (PlayStation 2, Xbox and PC) & "Z.O.E. 2" are in development...
Z.O.E. sequel is good and all, but new MGS sequel every 2 years? Isn't it a bit too much?

Great, now MGS is going to end up like Final Fantasy...
Konami should put more focus on other franchises instead.

As long as the games are good, then I'm cool with MGS every 2 years. Just as long as they don't use the same story scenario writers they used for Sons of Liberty...:P;;;
However this does make me worry about the upcoming Contra games, since the other devlopment houses are busy with Suikoden 3 and the Bemani games. Does that mean we'll see the US devlopers get another shot at Contra? (*brrr*)

Nothing against FPS (Which I do like in small doses) but gawd, I want classic Contra action for this game...
Repeat the same point for the upcoming Metroid GC game as well...
