June 3, 2009 - With two Metal Gear Solid games on the way, you might be wondering how Hideo Kojima is going to have time to enjoy is high class Roppongi Hills apartment.

The answer was revealed today in Famitsu. While we're certain Kojima is going to be kept mighty busy either way, he's actually only fully involved with Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker. The Metal Gear series father is serving as director, producer and game designer on the PSP title.

As for Metal Gear Solid Rising (confirmed in Famitsu to be for Xbox 360 and PS3), Kojima is serving as producer along side Kenichiro Imaizumi. He told the magazine, "I'm not the director. I'm not doing game design either. Although, I do issue complaints (laughs). But, not too much."

Sadly, the magazine did not share staff details on Rising. Perhaps Konami will provide specifics at its E3 press briefing Wednesday afternoon?

Kojima's comments appear in this week's issue of Famitsu. They also appeared in last week's issue, but as you might recall, they were censored out so that no one could actually read them. This week, the magazine reprinted the parts that had been blocked out, filling in all the blanks.

Rising and Peace Walker have both been unveiled since then, but there are still some passages of interest in the fully readable version of the interview.

Of particular note is that Kojima refers to both games as "Metal Gear Solid 5." He describes Rising as a "next generation MGS5." He describes Peace Walker as "The MGS5 Inside me."

Kojima was referring to Peace Walker when he was describing a game that would be focused on the Japanese market but that would be released worldwide.

Given the response that both games have gotten following their press conference debuts, we have a feeling they'll both do pretty well throughout the world.

imagine they use bluetooth so that you can connect to your phone's bluetooth,and acquire new soldiers for outer heaven
or you can use the bluetooth to connect to other PSPs and unlock things you cant with just wifi..

with Kojima's mind,anything can happen(free playboy mag,maybe? )

1 thing i like about Kojima is he usually use all the hardware potential . who have even imagine you can recruit a soldier by just connecting through WiFi?

it was mind blowing

but, i really hope no more recruiting this time. we need more innovation.

Its the same method applied in The Dark Knight, in the scene where Batman captures Lau in Hong Kong.

no,it's the same method naked snake himself used in MGS3
