The official PlayStation Twitter accounts love coming up with little games and questions to pose to its followers, and today was no different. PlayStation UK asked fans what the first game that came into their head was when they thought of the PSone, PS2, PS3, and PS4 generations, but then Konami got in on the act.
Viewable below, Konami UK responded with its own list, and the results really do prove how drastic the Japanese company's move away from video games ever since the release of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain has been.
The publisher responds with classics such as Silent Hill and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, but the game it apparently thinks of first when the PS4 comes to mind? eFootball PES 2020. Yikes. Even Metal Gear Survive would have been a better choice!
Obviously, the Twitter account wants to promote its single upcoming game but come on Konami, have a bit of fun once in a while. What would you response be to the question posed by PlayStation UK? Let's see your list in the comments below.

Castlevania Lords of Shadow over MGS4.
Final Fantasy VII
Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
Metal Gear Solid 4 (too bad I never had the opportunity to play it)
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
I think they were of the mindset of using e slots to promote multiple IP's they own regardless off the quality and perception of the output.
It's just marketing, though, right?
Ps1: Final Fantasy 7/9 /Tomb Raider 2
Ps2: Resident Evil 4/Kingdom Hearts
PS3: Red Dead Redemption/Batman Arkham Asylum/Uncharted 2
PS4: Persona 5/Horizon: Zero Dawn/GoW
Sony continue to disapoint. Let me finish the job:
PSP: Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core / MGS Peacewalker
PS Vita: Persona 4 Golden/Uncharted Golden Abyss
I get it, there promoting an upcoming game but this is just tone deaf from them. Especially in the same year where games like Bloodstained and Death Stranding are coming out after the same Konami refused to fund them.
Ps1: Silent Hill
Ps2: Silent Hill 2
Ps3: Dark Souls
Ps4: Tricky! Maybe Alien Isolation or the Shadows of the Colossus remaster
They're reporting year on year growth, so I don't suppose they give a damn how they look to people on the little corners of the net. They know what they are doing - it's a totally different market they are after these days.
Downfall? Not even close.
Even MGSV would be a better pick, and I thought it was a huge disappointment.
PS1: MGS
PS2: GTA San Andreas
PS3: Uncharted 2
PS4: PES 2020...lmao, joking...PS4 has so many great games but the one that comes to my mind first is probably GOD OF WAR.
PS1: Castlevania SOTN, Wipeout 2097, Tekken 3, Gran , Metal Gear Solid, FF VII
PS2: Metal Gear Solid 2 (& 3), GT3, Devil May Cry, REZ
PS3: Uncharted 2, Demons Souls (& Dark Souls), The Last of Us, Metal Gear Solid 4 (I loved it).
PS4: Resogun, Bloodborne, God Of War, Sekiro, SpiderMan, HZD, REZ VR
Vita: Persona 4 Golden, TxK
these games just all jump in my head pretty much instantly. Too hard to pick one.
What's sad is the other day I was playing a game.on my phone while on break at work. An add came up for a slot machine mobile game and it said Konami Slots presents....
I almost cried
How the mighty have fallen.
@Frigate Absolutely nothing. Snobby gamers don't like sports games.
Ps1: FF7
Ps2: GTA Vice City (or just the series as a whole)
Ps3: can i just say Naughty Dog? Lol
Ps4: God of War or Spiderman (shout out to Aloy though)
PS1: Crash Bandicoot 1
PS2: Sly Cooper
PS3: Uncharted 3
PS4: Persona 5
Glad they recognize Lords of Shadow. I thought that game was amazing and super underrated last gen.
My response was...
PS1: Resident Evil
PS2: GTA Vice City
PS3: Uncharted (all)
PS4: Horizon: Zero Dawn
Psone - Tomb Raider
Ps2 - GTA3
Ps3 - Gran Turismo 5
Ps4 - GTA5
Ps1: MGS 1/Final Fantasy 7/Tomb Raider/Tekken/So many other games..
Ps2: Ridge Racer Type 4/God of War Series
PS3: Uncharted Series/MGS4/TLOU
PS4: God of War/Uncharted 4/Horizon ZD/Persona 5
First games to come into my brain are thus:
PS1 - Destruction Derby
PS2 - Dark Cloud
PS3 - Elder Scrolls Oblivion
PS4 - Knack
PS One:. Legend of Dragoon
PS2: SmackDown: Here Comes the Pain
PS3: None (Didn't own a PS3)
PS4:. Spider-Man
Crash Bandicoot
Ace Combat 04, 5, or Zero
Metal Gear Solid 4
God of War (if you said anything else for PS4, you're wrong.)
Again what's wrong with pes for me it's miles ahead of fifa in terms of gameplay
For me the list would be as follows:
PS1: Crash Bandicoot
PS2: Metal Gear Solid 3 Subsistence
PS3: Heavy Rain
PS4: Nioh
I don't like this kind of journalism. Pes is the only franchise that keeps Konami alive. But the title you could do better. To mention one football game as a demise of a company you know Ea is striving with fifa. Therfore the twitter was not the downfall of konami
PS1: Final Fantasy Tactics. Bomberman.
PS2: MGS2
PS3: Arkham. Kingdom hearts (was ps2 as well)
PS4: Bloodborne.
PS1:FF7
PS2ragon Quest 8
PS3emons Souls
PS4:Bloodborne (so far)
ps1: Syphon Filter, LoK Soul Reaver, MGS, Resi Evil (series), FF7-9, Spyro, Crash, GTA, Silent HIll [could go on and on and on]
ps2: GTA 3, FFX, Silent Hill 3
ps3: Arkham(s), Uncharted 2, TLoU, LBP
ps4: God Of War, HZD, Spidey (the obvious ones)
It's such a hard thing to answer but
PS1: CTR
PS2: MGS 2 Sons of Liberty
PS3: The Last of Us
PS4: Uncharted 4 A Thief's End (So far, but honestly I can't even decide about PS4)
@lixei32 what other big new games does Konami have in the pipeline other than PES?
That's not bad journalism, that's a fair point.
You bringing up Fifa is irrelevant. I'm saying that as someone who has really enjoyed Pes 18 and 19 and platted both. But the best games on ps4 they certainly are not.
PS1 - Pro Evolution Soccer
PS2 - Pro Evolution Soccer 4
PS3 - Pro Evolution Soccer 11
PS4 - Pro ject Cars 2
Ps1 Crash Bandicoot
Ps2 Silent Hill 3
Ps3 TES VI Oblivion
Ps4 Witcher 3 🙂
Those Twitter things are annoying
And cringe
PS1 Metal Gear Solid
PS2 God of War 2
PS3 The Last of Us
PS4 Bloodborne
Wow, that sucks. They basically said they haven’t done much since the PS2 days and done nothing this gen...
And to answer the twitter question
PS1 Twisted Metal 2
PS2 Star Wars Battlefront 2
PS3 Uncharted 3
PS4 Persona 5
The emoji use signifies them 'having fun' to me. Besides, pes2020 is shaping up to be a great entry in the series. I'm considering preordering it even though I said I was done with footy games back in 2018.
Also
PS1 - Crash Bandicoot
PS2 - PES5
PS3 - Uncharted
PS4 - Resogun
FFVII
MGS2
TLoU
GOW
ff9
mgs3
tlou
bb
p.s. pes > fifa
I don't know, but for me, this of continuing to contemplate that Konami is doing badly is like not yet overcoming the tragic event of a few years ago; We know that Konami is no longer the same (for years), but right now, despite their disasters, they have tried to stay in the video game industry, yes, not excellently, but, come on, we already had a new Bomberman, there will be a new Contra (and everyone has their opinion on that), but they are, we could say, improving, of course, we can not forget their disasters and possibly they not recover their former glory, but, seriously, keep that, "hate", It makes no sense, oh well...
I have expected a new Dance Dance Revolution from them for years, Naoki left Konami and Bemani is almost forgotten, so there will be no new music of him and very probably much less a musical game of Konami, but that is why I do not keep my bad feeling to Konami, simply, it's a shame, be it in some future or another life, XD
Ok then. I'll bite to the non sense.
Tomb Raider, Prince of Persia, Uncharted, and of course Days Gone
Time to be hated:
PSOne: Ocarina of Time (Didn't own a PSOne)
PS2: Wind Waker (Didn't own a PS2)
PS3: Xenoblade Chronicles (Didn't own a PS3)
PS4: Horizon: Zero Dawn
For me, if I were Konami, the first thing I think of this gen is Pachinko.
Metal Gear Survive is a never a better choice.
PS1: King’s Field/KF2
PS2: KF: The Ancient City
PS3: Demon’s Souls
PS4: Bloodborne
Nowt wrong with PES, best football game on the market.
PS1 - Final Fantasy 7
PS2 - God of War
PS3 - Uncharted 2
PS4 - Yakuza 0
PS2 and PS4 was hard for me PS2 mainly because I cant really think of many games that stood out to me only ones that came to mind were Ratchet and Clank and FFX. Ps4 was tough because of there are quite a lot of very good games released this generation sadly I think Destiny may of had the biggest impact this gen even though I dont play it anymore other games of note would be Astrobot, spiderman and god of war
PS1 - Tenchu
PS2 - Splinter Cell
PS3 - Dead Space
PS4 - SuperHotVR
First game that came in my head:
PS1 - Gran Turismo
PS2 - Kingdom Hearts (and the Guy Game)
PS3 - Puppeteer
PS4 - Bloodborne
PS1:Legend of Dragoon/ Koudelka/ Parasite Eve 2/ Final Fantasy 7,8,9/Resident Evil 1,2,3 /Dino Crisis 1,2/Metal Gear Solid/ Legend of Legaia 1, 2/ Breath of Fire 4, Twisted Metal World Tour im sure im missing a few.
PS2: ICO, Shadow of the Colussus/ Devil May Cry3,1/Resident 4,Resident Outbreak/Dark Cloud 1,2/Clocktower/ Final Fantasy 10,10-2, Final Fantasy 12/Dragon Quest 8
PS3:Valkyria Chronicles/ Binairy Domain/ Vanquish/ Last of Us/ Heavenly Sword / Demon Souls/ Uncharted 2,3 /Infamous1, 2.
PS4: Horizon Zero Dawn, Valkyria Chronicles 4,Dragon Quest heroes 1,2/ Dragon Quest 11, Odin Sphere/ Dragon Crown and tons more great games.
