Hideo Kojima is Lost in His Own Ridiculous Metal Gear Solid Plot Points

Oh, how I tried to wrap my head around the plot of Metal Gear Solid. The original Playstation game was straightforward enough: A group of militants, all with incredibly dramatic subplots,  unleash a devastating nuclear weapon-toting robot. Oh yeah, and there are also government conspiracies and a virus that randomly kills certain individuals. But once I found out in the second game that robots were secretly controlling the planet, I basically threw all my notes out the window. Sounds like the franchise’s creator, Hideo Kojima, isn’t hanging on to his chart either. “I personally get confused too about the whole timeline and saga of Metal Gear Solid,” he tells Eurogamer. Glad I’m not the only one. [Eurogamer via Kotaku]
