Straight from Kotaku
| Quote: | The man behind Metal Gear Solid, Hideo Kojima, has got Left 4 Dead fever, a first-person shooter addiction rare in the typical Japanese video game fan. "Maybe I should quit being Japanese," Kojima joked.
In a newly published Famitsu interview, by way of 1UP, the Kojima Productions head worries further about the disparity between Japanese and Western tastes, of which he's starting to fall more into the latter.
"The US and European marketplace are far better balanced," Kojima said in a one-on-one with Sega producer Toshihiro Nagoshi. "There are games everyone can play — maybe calling 'kids' games' would be inappropriate — but there's also a deep base of core titles made with movie-industry people that explore the depths of hi-def. I'm addicted to Left 4 Dead right now, but people say to me that that game would never work in Japan. |
Hmm. More hints that his next game is an FPS? He did say he wants to make a game targeted to the Western market. Maybe a FPS MGS spinoff?

Kojima+FPS = Possibility of Epic Fail.
