GTA is a Magnum Optus of the Gaming Industry,it great to see a Legendary man awarding a Legendary Franchise this kind of award.

Yeah, Kojima openly expresses his admiration for Rockstar Games. He doesn't play many games, but he definitely catches on almost every Rockstar's new title. He admits that ever since playing Grand Theft Auto III he wanted to turn Metal Gear Solid series into an open-world game. Hell, that scene from The Phantom Pain trailer where Snake rides a horse across the Afghanistan desert brings nothing but Red Dead Redemption to mind. Even the music's very similar.

Haven't played a Metal Gear game in ages. Did the series ever get cool again after Solid for PSOne? Lol

this is awesome. Kojima seems like a nice guy and i´ve always wanted to see a project with Kojima and R* that would be awesome. i know this doesn´t mean They will work together in a project any time soon but still...

 

PS Kojima really likes R* works and to be honest i was expecting a little easter egg about MGS in GTA V...
