GameSetWatch.com reports that Hideo Kojima will recieve a lifetime achievement award at the Game Developer's Conference in March.
Mr. Kojima is just 45 years old. In most industries that would make him a prodigy, where lifetime achievement awards are generally given to people at the end of their careers who have put together a body of work ranging various formats and concepts.
This once again solidifies the fact that as gamers, we just dont' have any damn patience. Which is ironic, since the game he's so renowned for creating, Metal Gear Solid 4, has the longest freakin' load time in history on the PS3.
Hopefully, they are honoring his lifetime achievements thus far, and this isn't some veiled attempt to shove him out the door, because I believe he has plenty more to come.
COBRA ISLAND - Today beloved company Electronic Arts surprised nobody and announced that they would release G.I Joe for Wii, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2, PSP, DS and various mobile devices. With this game being released on so many formats how can it possibly be great? I had a chance to sit down with he head of EA's global marketing division and find out. (Read about it after the jump)
SAN DIEGO - Today Junji Shoda, Sony's head of international bussiness relations for Home, announced that twenty four companies will be making exclusive content for Playstation Home. Upon the announcement the virtually empty room sighed and checked their watches.
“Does this work with the 360?” One fan asked. Unphased, the question was expertly ignored, and Mr. Shoda quickly moved onto the announcement that Resident Evil 5 would be the first to use this new system.
Mr. Shoda then went on to say “This will damper Microsoft’s day”, just then a reporter stood up and said “Who cares? We all have Wiis”.
Junji Shoda then opened the floor to further questions at which point one last reporter stood and asked “Are we supposed to care?”
The room then dispersed to play Devil May Cry 4, Grand Theft Auto 4, Street Fighter 4 and the Resident Evil 5 demo on the Xbox 360.

WALL STREET - Looking for an interview on today’s economic crisis I stumbled upon a man with a great sword amongst the tiny men hunched over in suits, intrigued I asked to interview him. “What is your name?” I inquired. In a quiet but troubled voice, he responded “Cloud Strife”. Shocked I grabbed my microphone.
Konami has announced it will pick up movie turned game Saw. It will be created by Zombie Studios, a company that I've found to be run by actual zombies. Like with all half done licensed games with no information on them, this had hit game written all over it and Konami was wise to notice.
