Did you know Hideo Kojima is an Apple whore? He said so when he made an appearance at a San Francisco Apple store on Friday. 

Fans lined up outside just to get down. In fact, we heard that the first few people were in line from the early morning, and Kojima didn't show up until about 3 p.m. They packed several people in on the top floor of this store, where the famed game maker appeared on stage. He was there to talk about his new game, Metal Gear Solid Touch. Fans in line got an iPod Touch case plastered with a MGST theme and Snake's face. The whole thing was hosted by Geoff Keighley, who was either really run down or is not a fan of Metal Gear Solid at all. 

Kojima talked about the game, fielded questions from the audience, and then was promptly stormed by fans armed with autograph-ready items. He signed one or two things and then got the hell out of town -- the man must have learned a lot from his videogames as he seemed to disappear out of thin air. He probably crawled out of some air duct or something.

Hit the jump to check out the epic video interview. Hints of the next Metal Gear are dropped worse then Gecko's poo.

I think he's running out of sutle ways of saying "MGS4 isn't coming to the 360."

Yup, Rey shot and edited this. BY HIMSELF. He's like a five man video team :)

I love MGS but I want my ZOE in HD.

Rey did an awesome job editing this... I'm personally very impressed! Most interviews are kind of boring to watch.

The Reborn: Haha, fair enough. Although, I don't think it's going to be MGS 4, but the new MGS.

Keighley has got to be the gaming journalist equivalent to Wolverine in the comics showing up in 11 different books a month, Geoff could be on 11 different shows a week. The man's mastered social networking. Kojima must be a genius I've seen him pull off some crazy outfits in interviews this one was a pretty tame style choice. And Dtoid as a whole has really stepped it up, awesome video content!

Geoff smells the bullshit, and is having none of it.

Seriously the iPod MGS is an afterthought for money at best.

My friend was drawing that picture of Kojima/Snake at the beggining of this clip. He drew it under 10 minutes outside the apple store off of the picture of Kojima being displayed. He actually got the last signature as a member of Konami took the drawing to Kojima after his interview to get it signed. He chuckled with his buddies, Awesome experience!
