Hideo Kojima attending PS4 launch event in New York?
So, this is getting interesting. After Konami revealed the first launch details for Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes earlier this week, a user on NeoGAF working for the company talked about a ‘big announcement‘ coming before the VGAs (which means before December 6). What follows now is a tweet by Kojima’s personal assistant Ayako, saying ‘in NY from today!’ (translated).
今日からNYへ!(´・Д・)」

Ayako accompanies Kojima on all his business trips. As most people probably know, next week will see the launch of the PlayStation 4 in the US. This will be kicked off by a launch event, and will supposedly feature new titles and announcements for Sony’s next-generation console. Where will this event take place? That’s right, New York City. Just now, Geoff Keighley posted this tweet:
@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN Looking forward to seeing you soon my friend 🙂

For those who don’t know, Keighley will cover the event for Spike TV.
Update:
Had to give up on taking the hard cover book, "Shadow Stalker" by Jeffery Deaver to business trip though it's so tempting.
