I’ll hide your corpse in a Poke Ball.

“Nearly everything you can do with a portable system is in this game,” Kojima told PSM3. “Here it’s about ‘Tactical Espionage Operation’ — there’s that nuance of running and maintaining Big Boss’ army while handling sneaking missions. You won’t ‘get’ it until you play it. It’s like no game before. It’s part MGS, part Monster Hunter and part Pokemon – and it’s even got a bit of SimCity to it.”

On that note, the game also has bits of Assassin’s Creed in it, plus a few bags of Doritos, some Mountain Dew, give or take a whiff of Axe. But that’s another side of the story.
