But the last trailer is literally the only one which doesn't say Kojima Productions on it. Excluding the Moby Dick one obviously.
Yeah, that's kind of my point.

What do you think his reasoning was? Get a rise out of the fans?
To draw a parallel with the game and the marketing. The trailer is about censorship (back to MGS2). If Konami were the one's removing his name (which they never tried to do, instead they further highlighted it was a Hideo Kojima game) why would they let him make the trailer in the first place and then let him put the logo in? Does anyone really think it's a coincidence that the very next demo magically has the logo complete with the Kojima Productions text?

The company may not exist or may not in the near future, but Kojima Productions created this game and everyone knows it. I don't see how they could have removed it or his name from the game?
They're off the credits, KPLA no longer exists and neither do KP. Maybe the patch gets through on a technicality because its an in game prop and has been since the 2013 tgs demo for Ground Zeroes. :p
The fox logo itself is literally part of the game's plot.

Still we carry you.

A patch with Kojima Productions is not part of the game, more so the actual graphic of the logo.

Man if I see that word "troll" one more time :S. How old are people here?

And since when did it become synonymous with a whole list of other adjectives and nouns?

I guess the not being allowed to talk and restricted from communicating with the outside world ties in with the visionary robbed of his future/robbed of words vibe that TPP is going for.

So, do you think he took it off to show Konami how the fans identify with the MGS series as a Kojima and Kojima Productions game? To show them (maybe spitefully) what they were losing?

That's an interesting way to look at it. I just assumed the logo itself was more to do with FOX than Kojipro. But i'm sure many people won't agree with that.
PEACE will come.

That shit impacted Konami's shares.
I've read this numerous times and a couple of times in this thread as well... it really didn't though.

Correct.

And even if it had, just imagine how much the value of the shares would rise if, hypothetically, it turned out that everything Kojima has shown/told us was bullshit and MGSV turned out to be a 10/10 for everyone in the MGS fanbase ( including Max Payne :P )
