Genetic engineering is a result of science advancement, so I don't think that in itself is bad.
This may sound pretentious, but I don't like being thought of as 'the Metal Gear guy.' There's a lot more I can do.
I was born in Japan and raised in Japan, but those are the only things that make me Japanese, I've grown up reading books from all over.
My past identity separates from me and remains in the past; he becomes someone else. Is memory really as insubstantial as the fragments of information that we store in our heads?
In the near future, we'll have games that don't depend on any platform.
At Disneyland, you never go backstage - even when youre in the bathroom.
You have to be very careful when you're working on a sequel, because it has to be a continuation of what you did before.
Hollywood continues to present the US army as being the good guys, always defeating the aliens or foreigners.
Japanese gamers aren't really into action games right now. They're into role-playing or strategy games with a lot of stats, but action titles are still really popular across the US and Europe.
It's nice to wear a suit once in a while. It can restrict some body movement, but it makes me feel as though I'm part of society. I feel a sense of security because I've conformed to the standards of the rest of the world.
There are so many books and movies I like I never mention specific ones.
I always say this will be my last Metal Gear, but the games in the series that I've personally designed and produced-Metal Gear on MSX, MG2, MGS1, 2, 3, 4, Peace Walker and now MGSV-are what constitute a single Metal Gear Saga. With MGSV, I'm finally closing the loop on that saga.
People are satisfied with making minor upgrades and tweaking things here and there - as long as that's the landscape, it will keep on happening. I don't see a problem necessarily, but at the same time it is nice to see new things come.
War buddies don't exist in the meeting room. It's a battle between a lot of different officers. Some continue fighting when they don't realize that they have been shot.
I usually wear casual clothes to the office. I wear a suit maybe two or three times a month, and usually only when I need to meet with the head office.
What's troubling is that because the camera is 3D, the northern part of the screen isn't necessarily north anymore. So the jungle transforms into the true meaning of a jungle. For someone with no sense of direction like myself, I get lost in the caves every time.
