We love you Hideo. Speaking to Der Spiegel - translated here by GamingInGermany, Kojima has summed up the past 21 years of Metal Gear as only he could: by making very little sense.

"Things you consider as impossible - around the world and in the game itself - are still possible," he said. "In regards to the game's creator as much as to the player.
