“My role in this world is to keep on making big games for as long as I can.” – Hideo Kojima
Hideo Kojima has long been associated with Metal Gear Solid and Konami but that relationship turned sour earlier this year. Mr. Kojima quietly left the publisher a few months back. Since leaving Konami, Mr. Kojima founded his own development studio. Recently Konami started recruiting for development on the next Metal Gear title, but sadly, Mr. Kojima will no longer be involved.
