Modern Warfare 2 has inspired Kojima

Hideo Kojima is probably the most legendary game developer in the business.

What about Shigeru Miyamoto? He developed the Mario and the Zelda series. MGS is afterall, only a 4 game series, no matter how good it is, and Miyamoto changed the ways 2d games were played with Mario and Zelda, and then he...invented the way 3d games are played with Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time. Most recently, he's changed the ways gaming will be played in the future with Wii Fit, and his contribution to motion controls which ALL consoles are now fully adopting.

Kojima is an epic developer but probably IS NOT the most legendary game developer in the business, as long as Miyamoto is around, imho.

Typical Wii fan response, actually given all your previous posts I am by no means surprised. After Ocarina of Time, every other Zelda has utterly failed to come close (although Majora's Mask holds  special place in my heart). There were 2 or 3  3D games that came out before Mario 64 so that wasn't the first true 3D game. Hideo Kojima pioneered the stealth genre with extensive story. As for motion controls half of us couldn't care less as that will be to catch the casual market Ninty was smart enough to do so.

Wow, that part of your post that I left is jaw-dropping.

A. I'm not a Wii fan. In fact, I don't own one, and it's been a long time since I have. If you have truely followed my post, which you obviously haven't, then you would realize I'm very critical of Nintendo, and always praise the MGS series, besides MGS2 which sucks, and is vastly over-rated.

You thinking that I posted that due to Nintendo bias, is not only wrong, it's ignorant and presumptious, and you should be ashamed for doing it.

B. WTF are you talking about. Are you saying that Kojima's contribution fo the "stealth genre" with "extensive story" is as imporant as Miyamoto's contribution to gaming? Are you serious!?

C. Of course there were 3d games before Mario 64, however, there has never been a more influential game to the 3d based games that came after it, imho. As for Ocarina of Time, I'm glad to see you agree with me on that one.

...and as for motion controls, I don't give a shit what half of you care about. Fact is, motion controls are being adopted by all consoles, and changing gaming. If you don't think that Kojima has been influenced by Miyamoto, or if you don't think that Kojima will jump all over motion controls the first chance he gets in the MGS series, then pass what you're smoking....I wonder how much influence Kojima had on Miyamoto though. None.

I highly doubt many of your favorite games would exist in their current form without Miyamoto, however, I wouldn't want to deprive the industry of the innovation of "stealth based narrative length" as you've outlined earlier, so I don't know who we could do without, in our history. Let me see....let me count the contributions, hmm.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
