What is Kojima Productions up to?

Didn’t quite realise how long it really has been. I did intentionally distance myself from this blog for a while due to my needing a break – well you try house-hunting online for hours and hours (even so, my WoW hours were pretty regular, showing how addictive and good that game really is). Hopefully, now that’s over and done with, I can get back to my usual gaming/writing care-free self.


This is the newest promo vid for Monster Hunter 3, coming out on Wii (7,340yen) on 1st August.

Here’s Kojima Productions’ site… and it has this on it. Rumours are rife as to what this teaser site is for. Some fans hope it’ll be the next MGS title.

Here’s a video of 豆うつし (lit. Bean-flick). Kind of something a salaryman would do after work, drinking at a ‘nomiya’ (a pub-like establishment), getting steadily drunk and resorting to some puerile activity. I can almost see my dad doing this and getting competitive about it. Well, it’s available on the iPhone, so getting drunk with your boss isn’t a necessity.
