lol Detective GAF strikes again?
This actually makes sense considering he's someone that could actually talk intelligently about games since he knows the industry, instead of just an actor.
Yet he might not be convincing as a game developer, as Geoff's questions are likely targeted towards the graphics engine etc...
which would explain why Geoff doesn't think he's a game developer.
DetectiveGAF, stay awesome.

This is so fucking stupid. Everyone knew it was kojima the second this game was announced. He never fooled anyone. What's the point of continuing this charade? Can't he just let his game speak for itself?

I'm loving this. Kojima trolls are fun.
The point is obviously to maintain interest. Marketing, in other words. Since it is far more entertaining than any game marketing campaign I can remember I find it hard to complain.

I was hoping it'd just be Kojima with a very large, fake moustache.

What happened to his face? I haven't seen too many people wear something like that in public. I didn't hear about the accident that caused him to wear a full facial bandage. If I was in that shape, I would be at home, not promoting my video game. What a trooper!!!!

Exactly, personally I love the "stupid" and absurd sense of humor that Kojima shows sometimes, but I understand that some people could think that is kind of dumb. But at least is very original and its keeping people interested, so from a marketing perspective its pretty good.
Go Kojima Mogren go!!
I agree, but I can't decide if this is fanservice or just plain insanity.
I mean, I can usually explain gaming hype at my work office but this? I've got nothing. I still can't get my head around this, it's crazy. It's a breath of fresh air in a world of hype by sterile "teaser trailer" before announcements of announcements, but...yeah.
Any Irish members might get his reference or homage to a local band called the Rubberbandits.
Fuck your Hind D, I've got a horse outside
I'd take this over a "Coming in the air tonight" cover with random scenes from the game thrown in.

With just about any other developer, i'd agree. But it's Kojima, so this is awesome.

He looks so peaceful, reminds me of this:
The last episode was such a good send off.
Can't wait to see this. How dead inside are the people who complain about this?

At this point i think anyone who simply thinks this is just a marketing gimmick needs to look back at MGS2, When Kojima does stuff like this its generally done with a story theme in mind.
Hell the trailers for MGS2 hinted at the idea of the control of information and the S3 plan. A lot of people are too caught up in the idea of this being only a marketing scheme, and it's definitely bigger than that
