Hideo Kojima--Video-Game Designer

creator Hideo Kojima. He was 24 years old when his 8-bit action-adventure game was released on the Japanese home computer system, the MSX2, in 1987. Eschewing the trigger-happy, arcade-style gameplay of other action titles, Metal Gear instead favored the use of stealth and ingenuity, with violence as a last resort, as tools for infiltrating the game's fortress and disarming a nuclear threat. Kojima also used his love of best wii gun American action films and TV shows to give Metal Gear a cinematic narrative largely unseen in games outside the fantasy/role-playing genres. It quickly became an underground hit.

Since then, Kojima has developed and released seven more sequels and various spin offs in the Metal Gear series, building a rigorous mythology around its lead character, the special forces agent Solid Snake, and perfecting the stealth-action genre he xbox 360 bluetooth adapter spawned two decades ago. Collectively, the franchise has sold close to thirty million games.
