Kojima visits graphics lab at ICT and VFX studio Digital Domain

Hideo Kojima is still in Los Angeles, and he visited several companies today, posting some pretty interesting updates on his Twitter.

The Institute for Creative Technologies (ICT) is a research institute exploring the interaction between humans and computers. One area they focus on is developing new techniques ‘for creating and displaying photo-real computer graphics of people, objects and environments’. Sounds similar to what Kojima is doing in terms of 3D scanning and the Fox Engine.

Looks like he had his image captured in what they call the ‘Light Stage’.

“I went into “The Light Stage” at ICT lab.”

“To the next stage.”

Kojima also paid a visit to Digital Domain, a company that specializes in visual effects for movie and other video productions.

“What a hospitality found in the Digital Domain’s parking lot.”

This studio has created several CG trailers for big games such as Gears of War, Killzone and Halo.

What are all these trips for? Well, the most logical guess would be, of course, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

            I’m sorry. I had to let Anonymous know that I mean business when it comes to Sony, MGS, and Kojima and that nobody messes with either. Didn’t mean to overdo it.
            EDIT: Just noticed u changed ur pic to L for Luigi…that’s cool.

          • Sorahearts

            Don’t forget that I’ve changed my pic too

          • Nintendo Fan 4 Lif3

            Oh wow. I just saw it. cool. Now it matches your username.

          • Sorahearts

            Yep. I nearly picked Noctis from FFXV

          • Nintendo Fan 4 Lif3

            Haha yeah. you should find a pic that has them back to back or something so you can represent those games at the same time.

          • Sorahearts

            True. That would be a good idea, alright Noctis will be my next profile pic even though my name is Sorahearts but that doesn’t matter

          • Nintendo Fan 4 Lif3

            Yeah what matters is the games.

          • Sorahearts

            Exactly. I would use a spiky headed character with different colour hair

          • Nintendo Fan 4 Lif3

            Yeah, like Cloud Strife.

            fuck your mgs and your kojima

          • Nintendo Fan 4 Lif3

            fuck u too asshole. when u wake the fuck up and know true hardcore gaming when u see it, let me know so we can have a real conversation. Now get the fucking hell outta here; I never wanna see u here again nor do I expect u to come back since u are clearly unappreciative of who Kojima is and what he’s contributed to the video game industry with MGS. If u actually played the series you would comprehend the essence of it and its appeal. Give it a shot; see if u can prove me wrong. You’ll thank me later. Goodbye Anonymous (not, cough, the hacker presumably that temporarily stopped Sony’s servers in 2011, cough, of course, COUGH).

            the series is gay as fuck, played it and traded it in for dog food. my ridgeback is more important to me than a hack of a series that isn’t worth shit. too bad you’re too much of a drone to realize that yourself, kojima is a piece of shit and i hope he dies in an accident before he ever makes another abomination like the mgs series again. a shitty game does fit a faggot like you though, i guess kojima and his group of jews and gooks made it to clump fools like you together and out of the rest of the industry. good luck with your casual ass game, i hope your system bricks you fuck.
