i love metal gear as much as the next person but every time i learn a new metal gear trivia factoid about how kojima originally wanted to do some stupid bad thing with a female character before his staff talked him out of it - stuff like "in mgs2 emma was supposed to have her period while swimming with raiden, and then later her final words after being shot were supposed to be 'i'm fine, it's just my period'" - i realize how dangerously close kojima was to becoming the japanese david cage
