As I am sure many of you have heard, Metal Gear creator and mastermind Hideo Kojima is no longer with Konami. Some say he quit, some speculate a firing, but what we do know is this creative genius will no longer be contributing to Konami games. Between that and Iwata, there’s been some pretty sad news in the last couple of weeks for us who grew up with Nintendo.
But if you look at the above pic from Metal Gear 4, it seems that someone may have had a suspicion that his time at Konami was limited. I guess sometimes fate wields a cruel hand (or) predestination is more powerful than we think. Either way, his particular brand of (nine hour cut-scene) madness will be missed (though it is safe to assume he won’t be unemployed for long).
