This Thursday was the release day for Metal Gear Solid: Subsistence in Japan. To get the attention of the holiday-stressed consumer public, Hideo Kojima and Yoji Shinkawa blitzed event after event just to make clear that this game is the best thing that ever happened to the world.

Apart from a screening of the three and a half hour Metal Gear Solid movie (for those who do not want to play the game), there was also a demonstration of the online battle mode. In this feature, you will be able to compete against the developers and against Hideo Kojima himself. He is actually playing the game online this Monday…

Kojima and his sidekick were also very enthusiastic about the future and the opportunities to erase the line between movies and games.
Something, which Sony wanted to achieve with ‘The Getaway’ a few years ago…
