Kojima also met up with JJ a week ago to inform him about his new studio. https://twitter.com/HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN/status/689629993559654400

I doubt it would happen, but i'd love to see Kojima make a Star Wars game. I have no idea what it would be about, but i'm sure he could make it awesome.

Huh I didn't notice that when I watched The Force Awakens Maybe I would have if I'd known ahead of time. Confused

I remember hearing that, actually. But I didn't recognize it as "Kojima" until I read this article, just that it sounded unusual and like something I should recognize.

Same here. I saw it twice, and didn't notice. Either it wasn't that clear, or I brushed it off as random alien speech.

I'm not usually that guy, but with some of the news stories lately I think this typo should be corrected:
Quote:
The mind behind the Metal Gear Solid franchise has since launched the game studio Kojima Productions, was indicted into The Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences' Hall of Fame, and is hard at work at on his game.

I believe you meant INDUCTED

That is pretty funny. So JJ knows about the big K? Interesting.

JJ is a fan of MGS, and they're friends, so this isn't that surprising.

Before this was discovered people had even speculated that C3PO's red arm might have been a homage to Big Boss and his red bionic arm.

Yet more to contribute to the circle jerk of that terrible movie.

Guess it's not far off since MGS's story fizzled out half baked.

I didn't know that. But,I've yet to see "Star Wars:The Force Awakens." Hmmm. You learn something new every day.
