Hideo Kojima Goes to the Gym and Comments on President Obama

Posted by raymond padilla on 11 October 2009 5 Comments

Hideo KojimaApparently Hideo Kojima is working out again. While he’s at the gym, the Metal Gear Solid master likes to comment on world affairs, including American President Barack Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize. While Kojima’s eccentricities are well known (though certainly embellished), pumping iron appears to have taken his thoughts to a new power level. His comments on Obama are interesting and confusing…and maybe a little scary. Andriasang translated his words:

“President Obama, who declared ‘A World Without Nuclear Weapons’ in Prague, has won the Nobel Peace Prize.

Has the era at last started shifting?

The start of the Peace Walker plan? I hope that comes to be.

‘Peace will not walk to you’

‘You must both walk towards one another.’

From the gym.”

It’s possible that something was lost in translation. It’s also possible the Kojima’s brilliance completely flew over my head. My personal theory is that the Stairmaster has made him a bit wacky. What do you guys and gals think?

That is a whole pile of brilliant, right up until the last three words. I hope that's a translation error because "from the gym" is both hilarious and completely nonsensical.

@moonpie Maybe Cliffy B's steroid use inspired Kojima to develop his guns.

moonpie says:

lmao perhaps, but I find it strange that they just randomly found Kojima in a gym somewhere and he then decided to comment on Barack Obama. I mean it's a decent connection to his game, I guess.

Nice way to plug and sell the game Kojima lol. That's good.
