MGS4 at 1080P? Informal Interview with Hideo Kojima

An MGS fan ran into Hideo Kojima at Comic-Con 2006 and somehow managed to score an awkward interview. Hideo offers up some interesting details about the upcoming MGS4.

It's holy moly chit chat guessing. A guy who has a photo with this man says he has a whole conversation with this guy about facts he probably doesn't want to give to the public.

Furthermore, if the story is true, the Japanese guy said 1080. No 'p' or anything there. Could be 1080i, and he stated: Sony is pushing it.

Sony needs it. There aren't so many 1080 i or p games for PS. Almost all will be in 720p and that's hard enough to get descent frame rates on the hardware

First let me say that MGS4 is a wonderful CGI and I want to release it in theaters nationwide, ??what?? as a game on the ps3, lmao!!!! No No... the ps3 doesnt play games like this, it's more a ratchet and clank kinda machine, havent you seen it's masive problems with bottlenecking and freezeing up in a simple game?? No, sony and the ps3 can and will never play this as a game as long as it continues to have major problems.

This would of been more like it:)) The Truth hurts.

TheXgamerLive6485d ago (Edited 6485d ago )

I dont think the ps3 is a very good machine as we speak but it has potential to be better than it is, that's for sure, but I don't like sony at all. They seem to thrive on the BS there dishing out and it's gonna put them in a deep 3rd place in consoles and well deserved from my point of view. Again, as we speak, the ps3 coudn't handle or even play MGS4 so it's a no brainer. Sony has major problems in front of it. What's it doing to keep last march's show from being a release date repeat??

Karibu6483d ago

Again BS xbug attack =)

FYI Xgamer, Hideo said graphics will improve from what we have seen so far.

blindrocket6483d ago

The “interview” wasn’t even with Hideo Kojima. Perhaps people posting “news” should actually read what they are posting.

Mr Bubbles6483d ago

But that guy's name wasn't mentioned in the write up. In any case, I DID read the whole story and note that it's filed as a 'rumor'.

It sounds like Sony is busting their balls to take advantage of the PS3 features that separate it from the 360: storage capacity for the long cinematics, tilt feature for snapping necks, 1080p...for the hell of it.

I think there may have been some heat exchanged after Hideo said MGS4 was completely possible on the 360. My guess is that if the lead developer of MGS4 (or whoever the other guy with Hideo was) is telling some nerd at comic-con these things, we're probably gonna continue to hear this type of emphasis coming out of their camp.

I'm a happy 360 owner, but for the sake of MGS4, I hope Sony's corporate muscle doesn't get in the way of the game designers' original vision.

ApocalypseShadow6482d ago

the guys hair and face structure aren't the same.he's not going to go into detail with some nobody and give him information about the game.plus it's wii60.a site that has videos constantly bashing the ps3.how about a picture with the glasses off.or a picture of his badge.bogus until proven true

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

Some of these low paid video game “news” writers weren’t born before 2007.

Here here

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.

I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker1d 1h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo1d 1h ago (Edited 1d 1h ago )

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing691d 1h ago (Edited 1d 1h ago )

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos22h ago(Edited 22h ago)

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Gameseeker_Frampt13h ago

Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.

2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

just_looken10h ago

It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5

Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos1d 7h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto1d 7h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger881d 6h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

ChasterMies20h ago

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
