Kojima ‘obsessing, excited’ over his next game
Metal Gear mastermind Hideo Kojima is having a difficult time focusing on his current project, the PSP’s Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, and struggles to keep away thoughts of his next project, he’s confessed through Twitter.
“I still have loads of work for PW, but my mind is in ‘The Next Title Mode,'” the renowned game designer wrote. “This is bad. I have to get my mind set on PW. I think about it without noticing, obsessing over it, unconsciously smiling and getting excited. Once again, thinking about ‘The Next Title.'”
“I still do not have the details embedded, but everything is running simultaneously in my head,” he adds. “The title, game design, story, characters, setting, mechs, casting, direction of the graphics, sound, beginning & ending, and key story sequences. It all molds together naturally in my head.”
Whatever the project, it shouldn’t be long until he can give it his undivided attention; Peace Walker releases in the west in two months’ time.
