For Kojima, the discovery of video games was not just a way to pass his time but the opportunity to learn about a new form of entertainment. Always a fan of movies and entertainment, Kojima spent his teenage years watching TV shows such as Bewitched and I Dream of Genie and movies such as 2001: A Space Odyssey and Taxi Driver. "I really did want to become a film director," he explains. "The people of my generation are visually oriented. Unfortunately we cant go out ourselves and film our own professional films because of the cost."http://gamespot.com/gamespot/features/video/btg_mgs2/index.html
