Kojima On Boktai, Metal Gear Solid, More

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing to Gamespot's new interview with Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima. It was conducted at E3, and he discusses his light-sensitive GBA game, Boktai, as well as the Metal Gear Solid remake/enhancement for Gamecube, Metal Gear:The Twin Snakes. Kojima particularly notes Japanese film director, Ryuhei Kitamura, who is directing the new real-time cut-scenes for the game, and says "Mr. Kitamura really respected and honored the original work... but what you'll see later on in the game is totally different. You'll be shocked." He also talks a little about Metal Gear Solid 3, saying "This time we said keep it nice and simple and go back to the basics."

Wow, it's amazing how much the Gamespot GBA editors don't give a damn about the GBA. I mean, MGS3 and MGS:TS are cool and all, but I want to know more about Boktai. "Hey, you're creating a cool new inovative game. But lets talk about you rehashing a movie.. err game for an entirely different platform. We like to call ourselves journalist!" Maybe I've just been stealth-gamed out, but then I also really like new things! oh well
