  • Hideo Kojima visits Infinity Ward?

    According to an anonymous poster on the popular but perennially sketchy 4chan board, Metal Gear Solid series director Hideo Kojima visited the offices of Infinity Ward today. Why? "To learn" about first-person shooters, allegedly.


    The rumor may come from that one board on the internet we all know about, but it's still worth looking at.

    Yeah, the update was posted on that link you posted:

    "Update: Robert Bowling from Infinity Ward helps to clarify the details of Kojima's visit, saying the photo is "legit" but calling the quote that the Metal Gear director was there "to learn" from the developer "********" and "re-donku-lous."

    Bowling writes: "We're massive fans of Kojima's work, with MGS4 ranking up as one of my personal favorite games of all time. To presume Kojima and company has anything 'to learn' from us regarding game design is re-donku-lous. As fans of his team's work, we invited them to the studio for lunch and to check out what we currently have in the works while they were in Los Angeles. It's fairly typical for us to meet up with fellow developers whom we admire. Whether it be Kojima, Blizzard, or otherwise."
