Konami announced yesterday that Hideo Kojima will be demonstrating Metal Gear Solid 4 at the Leipzig Games Convention. According to the press release, they will also be showing off the latest trailer which Kojima will use to “detail key plot points while also revealing exciting news about forthcoming Metal Gear projects from Kojima Productions.”
Here’s what Hideo Kojima had to say himself:
“When I last came to Leipzig, I promised fans of Metal Gear Solid they would be able to see a playable version of MGS4 – and, to celebrate the special nature of the occasion, I can confirm, that I will bring a special guest with me. I love the enthusiasm European games players constantly show towards our titles, and look forward to showing METAL GEAR SOLID 4: GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS at the most important European gaming event of the year.”
I now officially hate anyone who gets to go to Leipzig.
Great news.

Im glad he understands he needs to treat Europe right. It suddenly feels like he is the only big developer who cares about Europe at all.
He said the word “Europe” two times there. Thats probably more than any other developer has said it in 5 years

“Special guest”? Hmmm… David Hayter, maybe? Or maybe Miyamoto-san, to announce a Metal Gear game for the Wii? I dunno, just speculating…

This is the only game i am really looking forward to at the moment on the PS3. Kojima has a marvelous mind and i hope he manages to put Metal Gear behind him now and make something else of interest. I am hoping he shows us what he has been toying with on the Wii too!
Snaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake!
