Valve Co-Founder and President Gabe Newell is currently hosting an AMA (Ask Me Anything) over on Reddit. Regarded as a juggernaut of the video games industry, Gabe Newell or GabeN as his more affectionately known to his loyal fans created some of the industry’s best-loved franchises with Half-Life, Portal and Left 4 Dead all developed by Valve Corporation.
With Kojima gone, a lot is riding on Konami's revival of Metal Gear.
Not really, Konami is basically in name only and like so many other Japanese studios that have come and gone they are just going to be an IP troll and milk that cow until it is dry. Also one of the advertised features is playing the game from a different camera view while everything else remains the same will just result in making the game easier like what happened with Twin Snakes.
When are people going to learn that all Konami is doing with these games Is licensing them out? They are not trying to revive their game development Branch and they are not the ones developing this. It is studios that came to them and asked to use the license to make a game and they have been doing this pretty much since MGSV
Remaking all his work reaks of desperation. The only reason they are getting away with it is everyones deep love for the series. If delta is successful (which as of right now it should be), they'll be sure to remake all of them.
Big shoes to fill, and compared to SH2 - this is as much a 1:1 remake as you can get. You can still see the PS2 bones in the movements and how the cutscenes have the same angles. If anything, I'd have preferred the reverse.... with SH2 being closer to a 1:1 remake but prettier, and have MGS3 have a little more freedom.
Ideally, MGS3 with a MGSV skin in terms of gameplay and freedom of approach. This is more like a high budget remaster than a remake. Having recently replayed the Bluepoint remaster, this is going to be like that same experience but even prettier.
But, as with both MGS3 and SH2, nearly impossible shoes to fill if not outright so. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Such is the legacy of these GOAT titles.
It's a one to one remake, using the same voice recordings too. Not a reimagining, no new content thus far announced, just a straight remake of a game that already exists, but now with prettier graphics. There's no revival, they proved they can't make anything related to MG after Survival. They'll just remake all the games and people will eat it up.

Does Lord Gaben know how to count to 3
Did he confirm l4d 3?
Please just give me Portal 3 and Half-Life 3 and I'll die a happy man. I loved playing L4D2 with my buddies. I just wish valve would notice the massive amount of fan support for these games and give them the green light :(
the article seriously skipped the most important answer. Gabe Newell confirmed that a fully-fledged single player game is being developed currently at valve. He also confirmed the possibility of a new IP set in HL and portal universe (although this means nothing really). also he confirmed that there are a few unannounced source 2 products. these is a very exiting news in my opinion.
Gabe,why do you torture me so?
