Kojima briefly talked with Famitsu about what gamers should expect from Metal Gear Solid Touch.
The game, a shooter set in the world of Metal Gear Solid 4, is controlled entirely with the touch screen. You drag a finger around to aim, tap to fire, and do assorted other finger tricks to open up your sniper scope and such.Feel free to read more of the interview over at 1UP.
Kojima: The content is purely MGS4, but the concept was more to create a "simple MGS." The development team's first impression was that MGS has to be all about stealth, but you can't play a quick game on the train if it's about that. It's a little much to ask of someone trying our games for the first time. That's why we made it a simple touch-screen shooting game.
