Thanks for the support. I dunno why, but I didn't think to publicise it until a few days had passed. I emailed some sites like Kotaku but heard nothing. I was considering taking it down and relisting it under the Play Japan thing but they didn't reply when I asked. I'd already taken it down once because of a shipping mistake :(
Kojima is very loyal to Playstation because his next game is Peace Walker for PSP (along with the team behind MGS4). And a completely new Snatcher game and ZOE3 are what he is thinking about next. I don't think there is no surprising that he sticks to Playstation when Sega is gone from the hardware side. He liked Sega's system and Sony's system equally.
i hope he comes to visit london again, perharps when metal gear solid rising is
out then ^^, i would definitely go to see him and grab a copy of d game ( 360 n ps3) and get it signed too !!,hehe d experience and everything would be priceless :)
Your japanese didn't suck at all. I bet I would just look at Kojima with my mouth open and not able to say anything, maybe "Th-th-than-an-an-ank yo-o-yo-you!"
This man is probably my greatest inspiration when it comes to my passion to one day make a series of video games that are truly masterpieces. He alone has showed me, if you have a great idea for a series of video games. You can make it. I hope to one day meet him and tell him thank you as I bow in his presence. Until then. I push forward to make this game.
the first meet (mgs3) was pure luck, on that morning my friend rang me and asked if i wanna go meet him so we did, but this time we knew in advance and planned for it :)
It's brilliant because it's so goofy. I found all these sounds/voices ripped from MGS1 and I went through them one-by-one but even before that I knew I just had to somehow get that line in there, by ANY MEANS NECESSARY
I have actually met Hideo Kojima and shook his hand. He signed my MGS4 and I said "Arigato mas" and then he looked me in my eyes and said "Arigato". True story. It was one of the most happiest days of my life.
Yepp, I did. And I'm telling you; that man's got a magic touch sensation to it when you shake his hand. It's like something out of this world. And he seemed to be a really great guy. (Just like David Hayter). I'm still amazed he responded when I said "Arigato Mas" and also that he looked me in the eyes when he said Arigato back. Trust me people, I'm NOT making this up. I've got pictures and the Autograph to back it up.
MGS Series + Kojima + Cast of MGS = Forever Greatness!
its well weird watching the creator of mgs sitting in the spot i used to sit when i was 8 or 9 watching free films hmv used to play on the screen behind hideo...i used to live across the road in a block of flats :P
no i didn't. people seem to think that because of the subtitle but that was just a joke, the idea being i'd done it all for the meeting with kikuchi specifically
So the art director would actually sign on everyones sleeve by drawing their faces on it O.o? How many people were there? His hand must have ached at the end of the event
this is my 2nd time viewing this clip, i dont know if hideo kojima's parents are still alive but still I WANNA THANK THEM FOR BRINGING THIS GENIUS AND LEGENDARY CREATOR OF MGS SERIES TO LIFE!
wow...dude i would kill to fuckin meet hideo kojima and yoji shinkawa. Fuckin Art in MG is amazing, and Yumi is fuckin gorgeous!!! dude talkin...u speak japanese fuckin fluent, u american rite? how long did it take u to learn that stuff u said?
