Kojima talking about Natal

Quote

This year the keynote is being delivered in one of the giant exhibition halls, which is a bit weird. It feels like sitting in the middle of a warehouse. There are lots of super-bright coloured lights. Gentle ballady J-pop plays in the background. It's a bit like the world's most rubbish rave.

pretty sure it'll be around $40 for the disco dildo by itself, so people will think it's cheap

but, you'll need a PSEye to use it, so that's another $30 - THAT'S HOW THEY GET YA
