Jim Logan wrote: Well Weedle, as we've stated. Hideo's written literally every game aside from Peacewalker with the intent it's the last game(except for MGS2 when he wrote it with the possiblity of a sequel). He just closed every game with a tight knit then when he'd make another game he'd have to break it to make the new game make sense.

Also, you know there's a Retcon page? Yeah, I know. I helped contribute to it.

And MGS1 is debatable, since he did mention that he named Solidus specifically with a sequel in mind, but I'll agree with you on the rest. This is why he should stick with it being the last game.

And to be frank, Kojima seemed to be somewhat of a nihilist, considering the themes in MGS2 and Piggyback Guide's analysis on the Metal Gear franchises overall themes in their guide to MGS3.
