Yesterday, we reported on Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima expressing a desire to see the original game remade by a third-party using the Fox Engine. Today, a studio has thrown its hat into the ring for consideration.

In an open letter to Kojima , British developer Just Add Water has expressed a desire to work with the series' creator to remake the game.By way of credentials, JAW cites "experience working with legendary IP (Oddworld Inhabitants) and treating the subject matter with the respect it deserves," along with having a team built of "huge Metal Gear fans, with very good knowledge of the source material" and the fact that everyone there "really, really want[s] to do it."Having previously created the HD version of Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath and Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty, Just Add Water has certainly proven itself adept at respectfully working with other people's franchises. Kojima has looked for a western developer before too, to work on the Metal Gear spinoff, Metal Gear Rising.Could this be a match made in heaven? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
