*tap* *tap* *tap* Is this thing on? Because game designer Hideo Kojima has something to announce.
First and foremost, Kojima is best known for creating stealth series Metal Gear Solid. That doesnāt mean you should pigeonhole him as an action guy. In a GDC interview, he states:
Well, to give you maybe a surprise, people might think I love action games and I love shoot āem ups and I kill people all the time, but thatās not it. I really like other [genre like] romanceā¦ I do, of course, like the comedyā¦ Of course, there is no comedy genre right now, and Iām always wondering how I should re-present this ā which I donāt have a specific idea yet, but Iām always thinking about that as a new genre.
Whew, got that cleared up. Okay, now on to the announcement. At the end of the interview, Hideo Kojima announces that he will be making an announcement at E3. Thatās right, he announced an announcement. This really caught us off guard, and we wish he wouldāve given us a heads up ā you know, announced that he was going to announce that he will be making an announcement.
