Kojima giving GDC keynote speech

How to make the impossible, possible.

Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima will be delivering a keynote speech at the Game Developers Conference next month.

He'll be talking about making the impossible, possible, according to the official website. And this will be his first time on stage at the event, which takes place from 23rd to 27th March.

Kojima joins other notable speakers Satoru Iwata, Peter Molyneux and LittleBigPlanet creators Mark Healey and Alex Evans on the list. And they've been on stage before.

Hideo Kojima rocketed to fame for creating the Metal Gear Solid series, but vowed to take a back-seat on the IP after the release of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, which Oli gave 8/10 to. That's Oli Welsh.

Kojima's not backing out of the industry entirely, though, but working on several games - and one of them will be out this year, apparently.

That sounds impossible, so Kojima may talk about it. And we'll be there with reporting instinct at hand if he does.
