Alert reader Jonny L. was watching the bonus features disc that came with
Metal Gear Solid 4, thought he spied something funny, backed up a few frames, and grabbed the above: Why, that looks like an
Xbox 360 devkit on someone's desk at
Kojima Productions!
Now what on Earth would he need that for? Kojima Productions has produced all of about zero titles for the 360; he's flatly said
MGS4 isn't meant for that platform, and MGS4
openly disparages (spoiler, kinda) the HD-DVD format in a codec call.
Maybe he was just using it for "research." That's the excuse I give when the credit card company asks me to validate certain, uh, Interwebs purchases.
Jonny says the above frame came from the segment "
Hideo Kojima's Gene" in the bonus features disc, for those who have it and want to watch. The large size version, without graffiti, is after the jump, if you want to get down and sleuth this and argue the details of the frame.
