Overheard @ E3: Kojima seeing 'Dun-Dun Dun Da-Dun'

by Jem Alexander { Jun 1st 2009 at 12:45PM }

Looks like Hideo Kojima won't be making the Microsoft press conference. When we stumbled upon him outside our hotel he told us that he'd be doing some sightseeing around (not so) sunny LA and then seeing "Dun-Dun Dun Da-Dun." We assume he means Terminator Salvation and, despite our instincts, we couldn't bring ourselves to tell him he shouldn't. He did say he enjoyed Star Trek, though -- in fact, he gave it two thumbs up.

MGS4 is a $30 bargain title. If Microsoft isn't rolling it out today, that train has left the station.

I anticipate sprinkles going on an anti-sony rampage if they do announce it, even though it's a year old and no one really cares all that much anymore.

"I anticipate sprinkles going on an anti-sony rampage"

Wow. Hope you didn't bet your life savings on that, Nostradamus.

Kojima parachuting into the Microsoft press conference confirmed?

Hyams @ Jun 1st 2009 12:51PM

That single act would make MGS4: Existance, MGS5 and MGS6 all going 360 exclusive acceptable.

joeybeast @ Jun 1st 2009 12:52PM

He's already on the stage but camouflaged.

J-Link @ Jun 1st 2009 12:55PM

Can it be a Union Jack parachute?

The Dark Wayne @ Jun 1st 2009 12:54PM

they will start the show with Don Mattrick getting a ! over his head

He's in the cardboard box stage left.

Complete with dog piss for realism.

Terminator Salvation wasn't nearly that bad. Why is it so hard for some people to refrain from making their own personal, subjective judgments on movies (or music or games) when reporting about something completely off-subject? Ughh.

Linkario @ Jun 1st 2009 1:02PM

Your post sucks. Also, coke taste better than pepsi.

BxGT @ Jun 1st 2009 12:49PM

It's a clue,Terminator Salvation is the plot of the next metal gear.

Linkario @ Jun 1st 2009 1:05PM

Dammit. That was for boris.strelchin not you. I was being ironic and instead ended up being a douche bag due to the comment system.

TIME PARADOX!

Storm Eagle @ Jun 1st 2009 12:50PM

They need to do a Conan O'Brien Secrets bit with him. I could see it now....
[Start Wayne's World Flashback Alternate Flashback thing, you know]

KOJIMA! secrets........

The Dark Wayne @ Jun 1st 2009 12:51PM

i think a Kojima IN THE YEAR TWO THOUSAAAAAAAAND would be even better

Storm Eagle @ Jun 1st 2009 12:54PM

I guess you're sorta calling for it, so I'll so it

In the year two thouSAND!! [now with higher pitch]

Blank-Mage @ Jun 1st 2009 1:03PM

What you call the future, we call the past, so you guys are way behind.

Unplugged @ Jun 1st 2009 12:50PM

I think I'm one of 2 people who don't care about Kojima's announcement.

Drew -- PS360: uphillbothways @ Jun 1st 2009 1:03PM

Where's the other guy?

Levi @ Jun 1st 2009 1:03PM

I'm the other.

Blank-Mage @ Jun 1st 2009 1:04PM

'Lo.

I'm another one that's part of the minority, ha.

I am interested to see what is finally revealed, but I'm not going crazy over the teasers or anything like most.

Hyams @ Jun 1st 2009 12:52PM

Isn't there meant to be a well known game developer who will be talking at both MS's and Sony's press conference?

If it isn't Kojima, who is it, I wonder?
