Hideo Kojima: I’m back in the field

A couple of days ago Kojima flew to the US and met up with Mark Cerny on a ‘secret location’, as he puts it himself. Today, he and his assistant Ayako shared some pictures of Kojima in what appears to be the performance capture studio from Sony he visited earlier this year.

I am back in the field "and wasting my time."

Sunny_D3047d ago

Kojima wastes his time traveling and talking to Mark Cerny.

Gamers waste their time reading another GamingBolt article.

Potato, Po-tah-toe. I guess that evens it out.

These are motion capture sessions at Sony San Diego. MLB = "the field"

Bansai3047d ago

He actually IS wasting time watching some mo-cap sessions for MLB the show.

Anarki3047d ago

Well get back to making games, you're no use in a field!

How is he wasting his time? Looks more like he's doing his job to me.

Kingthrash3603046d ago

Exactly, devs make better games when they are happy..

Just look at the end of mgs
..its like you can see when he was happy to when things made him unhappy.
I say enjoy some relaxing and make something special.

@Rashid Sayed
Everything YOU do is a waste of OUR time, so please stop with your stupid trash already.

Kojima is scouting possible resources that Kojima could use for his studio, either physically or tech info.

You Rashid on the other hand, even using anything MGS related for your icon is a disgrace to Kojima.

It's funny how a comment like that doesn't get tagged for trolling. I have seen much less get labeled as trolling.

Is the industry hurting for money or not?

Hofstaderman1d 6h ago

They belong to XBOX. Its a dog's life....

Chocoburger1d 7h ago

Nice thing they did, but not actually gaming related, not sure why this article was approved. Also strange informing us what game Rare worked on, as if we don't know their legacy.

Tacoboto1d 6h ago

Sorry you hate dog news - here's a game-related headline for you, the latest: "Deathsprint 66 is a hyperviolent freerunner that proves game journos suck at games | Video Gamer"

Yeah we need more headlines like *that* on this site, instead of news about a studio's employee perks.

GaboonViper1d 6h ago

Its actually nice to see a story like this instead of the usual doom and gloom but people still moan, anyhow hope these beautiful doggos have a great life.

Really nice story, kudos to Rare.

I went to look at new apartments and saw only dog parks, no kid parks. We're so screwed.

Damn was hoping for a fantasy setting. Looks futuristic

jznrpg1d 8h ago (Edited 1d 8h ago )

I think that’s a screensaver if you look to the right it looks more like a fantasy game and so does the concept art leaked earlier. Who knows though

phoenixwing10h ago

Unless that structure/pillar thingy in the right picture is long forgotten technology it's futuristic.

Name Last Name1d 10h ago (Edited 1d 9h ago )

Another shooter? Yawn. Thought the prevous concept looked more fantasy.

just_looken19h ago

With there same look on the right a arena setting this might be live service game #5 from sony

So a live service shooter like concord.....

StormSnooper19h ago

It looks like a fantasy game on the right screen. You are looking at a screensaver.

Goodguy011d 9h ago

Been looking forward to what they have next. Looks interesting.

Eonjay1d 9h ago

Really excited to see them release an original IP

GaboonViper1d 6h ago

Looks like my dream of them remaking Metal Gear Solid is over, still cant wait to see what they are cooking up.

Unions in gaming are necessary fr fr

montebristo1d 8h ago

I used to be anti-union, it kills productivity, investment and turns product mediocre. Their games suck anyways though so what was lost? Might as well get their people paid until they are dissolved.

shinoff21831d 8h ago

Unions are necessary regardless of how you feel. You know how fked the working class would be without them. As if we're not already.

montebristo1d 7h ago

No they aren’t, regardless of how you feel. Unions make zero sense for skill based labor. They are for people who press a button every 10 seconds on an assembly line. “working class” is a made up term. I don’t care about corporations or developers, I just want good games lol. Killing your incentives to appease the lowest common denominator doesn’t lead to great games imo

montebristo1d 1h ago (Edited 1d 1h ago )

I wasn’t trying to be offensive if I came off that way. The Union is an old mentality and I can see their usefulness but also the danger. We’re in the age of AI and robots and skill based labor. Unions can be dangerous these days. You could replace your entire workforce in one move. Checkmate. Look to the kiosk replacing workers in the 20 dollar minimum wage era.

Well run businesses don’t need unions. If you need a Union that business won’t survive anyway. Unless it’s propped up by the government with corporate welfare (which is the real issue). If you’re not going to spend some on your workers (Amazon, Google) then your welfare is cut off. No tax breaks. All you put together don’t match their wealth and resources, the union is a traditional memory at this point and counterproductive with this new enemy we face. They need a flying elbow from the top ropes. And by “working class is a made up term” I just mean we’re not a class system and even CEO Bobby Kotick puts in a days work lol. Or did.. It’s just a vague term that doesn’t mean anything no offense lol. People say “middle class” but that can change quick right? Up or down. That’s not a “class system”.
