Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



(Editor's Note: The above clip comes courtesy of 1up, and portrays a roundtable discussion between Hideo Kojima, Shinji Mikami and Goichi Suda at the recent Snake Vs Zombie Event in Tokyo. For those of you without aural passages stuffed full of fish, subtitles have been provided.)

After watching the entirety of the clip, I'm sitting here with my jaw on the floor at the sheer amount of talent they could fit on that stage. That chat was the gaming equivalent of an episode of Jon Favreau's Dinner for Five where his guests include the reanimated corpses of Orson Welles, Akira Kurosawa, D.W. Griffith and Vince Vaughn (for that one-note levity he blatantly stole from Dean Martin). Had Shigeru Miyamoto walked within a hundred feet of that stage, the entirety of the audio would consist of wet crunching noises as heads throughout the audience swell up and pop like overripe pomegranates.

Miyamoto wouldn't be able to keep up with these guys...his creative genius is long gone.

Mikami and Suda are fucking awesome. Koyima... not so much. (talking about their personalities here, not their talent so don't get your panties in a twist)

Kojima didn't talk as much but he still seemed like a cool guy. All of them seem like awesome people.
