I'm honestly so happy that Hideo Kojima isn't with Konami anymore. They were holding him back, and they only care about making money. Kojima is an artist, and one who deserves more appreciation for his work than what the jerks at Konami gave him.
@@Blue-gi3zk Konami always sucked wtf you talking about get some information before talking crap the SGcafe blog showed that the Konami employers that leave the company to work for Hideo got blacklisted by Konami , if Kojima was bad they would not choose to work for him...
Never enjoyed metal gear personally but I give all the respect in the world to this guy he changed the game of gaming and he forever has my respect for that
That was an incredible speech from Geoff. Emotions running wild, you can tell by his shaky voice that this means the world to him. Hideo also looked like he was holding back tears. This is a legendary moment in gaming history in my opinion.
Absolutely well deserved. This a a guy who works and creates when he does not agree with something (not complaints, whines or boycotts). And in the end he creates, for many, incredible things. As a community, we should learn a lot from guys like this on this generation.
I don’t think the younger generation will understand just how much of an influence this man has made not on the gaming scene, but on the creative industry as a whole. Award winning filmmakers have ranked his creative genius and amazing storytelling on the same level as Kubrick and Fellini (and I’m not exaggerating on that). His vision for storytelling is just on a completely different plain. It’s such a honor to be alive to watch his creative work evolve over the past 2 decades.
It's good to see that he got his well deserved award after all this time. While I disliked a few things in MGSV I will admit it was a damn good and detailed game and it was a shame he didn't get much to show for it. What a respectable man
its a shame he couldnt finish it teh way he wanted to. konami rushed it and wouldnt give hideo more money to make it better as u can see teh last part of teh game was rushed,
Love how the Crowd instantly Started Chanting For Kojimas Name. I also love how Geoff and Kojima are just actual Good friends You can hear in Geoffs voice how he feels Proud of Kojima.
Say what you want about Keighley, His brotherhood with Mr Kojima transcending language barriers is a lesson we can learn from exactly like Death Stranding hopes to achieve. Come together, love each other, build together. Connect. So close to release now, much love to all my fellow fans worldwide who are anticipating this game from a TRUE GENIUS, Be safe and happy and enjoy the game everybody
Kojima is an inspiration, and not just to video game designers. The man is an artist, the closest one can probably be to an auteur in AAA games. Saw this on my recommended sidebar, and had to rewatch it yet again. Shit makes me cry.
This is awesome, all the comments I've read so far have been positive and comical. So refreshing to not see the usual "Kojima is SO overrated... blah blah blah." This man is indeed an icon and deserves this award more than anyone. Forever a badass.
TweekPark I very much disagree. He still makes masterpieces like Pikmin and he still plays a large part in Mario and Zelda which both have had amazing entries. He’s the one who makes the games fun. Games don’t need amazing stories games need fun engaging gameplay. This isn’t the movie industry, these are games and Miyamoto makes the best ones. Look at his gameography and tell me he’s a hinderance. He produced some of the greatest recent Nintendo game.
Ok, I didn't even really like MGSV. (Found it to be a good time killer, like, a REALLY good time killer) But since most people agreed MGSV deserved an award, it, well, does. ITS ABOUT TIME HE GOT IT! "Kept you waiting, huh?"
Watching this again, and listening to this speech again, what stuck out to me hear him say was "you've always been there for me" I can't imagine what has happened away from the cameras that has strengthened their relationship all these years. But man, this whole segment, yeah, GK was on the brink there with the emotions huh? Beautiful moment, a real rise of the phoenix moment from Hideo Kojima.
Kojima FTW. Always. The MGS solid francise is such a big part of my life to this day. Thank you Kojima for everything you have done. We all love and appreciate your work. May you continue to thrive in this industry as you well deserve. It kills me that Metal Gear is trapped with Konami. This still bothers me.
there is something abut geoff trying his hardest to not break down on stage. idk why i mean we made our jokes about him over the years the doritos pic ect but around that time saw a picture of him as a teenager with gabe newell and i do think he is a guy who cares about his chosen profession
Congradulations Kojima, you deserved this. Goodbye Konami, I have nothing left to say to you. Unless you were to make a Quiet game or a new Metal Gear Rising Game
Geoff just got an "I love you" from a Japanese man. That's something that not even Japanese women hear on a regular basis
Truth, pretty sure Hideo means it because of that.
Gabriel Karapondo yeah it's because there's no "L" in the japanese alphabet
I'm dead xD
Lmao
Phil Collins *rmao
1:37 that finger was to Konami lol.
Thanks for correcting my small mistake.
Lol yeah I was wondering if anyone else caught that. hahahaha
hahahahahahahahhahahahahah
666th like
lol
Kojima speaking English makes me smile
KRATOS Engrish u mean?
Kratos do you ever smile in your life?
Did u rike it??

Konami would’ve kept him if they wanted money. They treat him poor because he treats them poor.
Death stranding has entered the chat

akhmad fadli that's true lol
Never enjoyed metal gear personally but I give all the respect in the world to this guy he changed the game of gaming and he forever has my respect for that
barz berz Have you played the new one??? Please please please play it! Best game ever!
Ashuthosh Sheelavanth Ya Is that snake eater because that was one of my favorites too! But the game play to everything on mgsv was soo on point!
I wish more people would be like this when they don't enjoy something, instead of blasting it and calling it shit. Here's To You, from a MGS fan!
It is It's not Kojima's fault! We will move on as unfortunate as it is. Death Stranding will be our new obsession!
Right lol. Well Kojima is just such a brilliant man all of his work has meaning! Even if it doesn't seem so!
The Game Awards still need a lot of work, but mad respect to Geoff for this and last year's decision to put Konami on blast.
That was an incredible speech from Geoff. Emotions running wild, you can tell by his shaky voice that this means the world to him. Hideo also looked like he was holding back tears. This is a legendary moment in gaming history in my opinion.
Reason why I came back to this video
Truly Epic
omg yes you can feel the emotions in this and holding back
4:05 Fuck, that bromance. Makes any man want to cry.
Best gamer bromance for sure
kojima is a badass, konami is dead. long live kojima.
Hector Viva la Kojima
Fool
1:38 this guy secretly giving the middle finger to konami.
Dtwo Mudy exposed
The emotion in Geoff's voice reflects how much we fans love Hideo
He Deserved that award more then ever for all the hard work and games he and his team gave us
Awww, you just wanna cuddle him when he's standing on that stage, full of humility.
They missed the opportunity to put #FucKonami on the upper right portion of the screen.
At this point I don't think they have to.
Clyde The Glide no, bro. Everyone should do it. Just do it... Nike
Eric Perez noice play on words there m8
Oh give it a rest there a company
GK's more classier than that.
man hideo look so likable
Correction: Hideo IS so likable.
dat sudden middle finger. Close.
This actually warms my heart
i am so glad hideo kojima finally got a perfect ending
Absolutely well deserved. This a a guy who works and creates when he does not agree with something (not complaints, whines or boycotts). And in the end he creates, for many, incredible things. As a community, we should learn a lot from guys like this on this generation.

Young generation is out of touch. They don’t get anything
A true patriot
I'm dealing with a situation with my job now that mirrors a lot of the things that Konami did to Kojima. His story is giving me strength to persevere
hope u get thru it man, stay strong
Update
hope you doing well
It's good to see that he got his well deserved award after all this time. While I disliked a few things in MGSV I will admit it was a damn good and detailed game and it was a shame he didn't get much to show for it. What a respectable man

The story is not complete.It seems he rushed it.But MGS5's gameplay is masterpiece
My eyes aren't tearing up, I swear, stop looking at me like that.
Love how the Crowd instantly Started Chanting For Kojimas Name. I also love how Geoff and Kojima are just actual Good friends You can hear in Geoffs voice how he feels Proud of Kojima.
Hideo Kojima rightfully got what he deserved.
He's a god among the gaming industry, and his passion influences us all.
well said Geoff Keighley...
what happened Konami, Kojima cought your tongue?
Now kiss.
That middle finger lol 1:36
Jack Mihoff in other words. #FUCKKONAMI
Geoff has the biggest man crush on Kojima! It's just too adorable.
Hideo Kojima is love, Hideo Kojima is life.
As much as the Game Awards has turned into a bs corporate cluster fuck in recent times, this is still one of the coolest moments in it’s history
Hideo Kojima, the man, the gamer who brought me childhood games. A true icon.
Say what you want about Keighley, His brotherhood with Mr Kojima transcending language barriers is a lesson we can learn from exactly like Death Stranding hopes to achieve. Come together, love each other, build together. Connect. So close to release now, much love to all my fellow fans worldwide who are anticipating this game from a TRUE GENIUS, Be safe and happy and enjoy the game everybody
Geoff deserves an award for this fucking speech. I would've been tight if I had public speaking with him.
LONG LIVE HIDEO KOJIMA!
Rong rive
KOJIMA IS GOD KOJIMA IS GOD
Well deserved. And a well-spoken speech. Times like these make me happy to have such a love for this medium.
I was born 1987 and this game was started 1987 , and with Kojima my childhood story started!
Haha! Kojima won!
:P His enrish is pretty good.
J. F.G engrish?
Me me
Japanese English (since there's no "L" for Japanese people)
I'm so happy for him. He is one of the greatest video game icons ever.
all that's left is a #FUCKKONAMI
Jim, take it away...
No
@@DirtyGeorge Yes.
Well earned, fully deserved.
One of the few developper that try to speak english out of love for his fan. Me and my little brother are big fan of him.
1:38 ...my niggah 😏

THE living legend in the industry (along with Hidetaka Miyazaki); it's total bliss to see him so happy.
And Miyamoto
Liam Ryan miyamoto is a problem to Nintendo at this point sadly
TweekPark I very much disagree. He still makes masterpieces like Pikmin and he still plays a large part in Mario and Zelda which both have had amazing entries. He’s the one who makes the games fun.

such a great personality Kojima this is a beautiful moment!
Someone hug Kojima DX. HE'S ABOUT TO CRY.
Ill Keep Coming by Low Roar plays as he walks up. After Death Strandings release that just made rewatching this so much more powerful
KONAMI? Who the fuck is that? Never heard of them.
oh you misspelled it. its FUCKONAMI and there just a bunch of assholes
Not only does Hideo look like he is going to cry, but Geoff sounds truly passionate. Amazing.
While Death Stranding is not my cup of tea this man is still such a wholesome legend who made one of the most iconic franchises of all time.
Simply put he's an artist and an innovator!!
This guy is awesome 👏
Ok, I didn't even really like MGSV. (Found it to be a good time killer, like, a REALLY good time killer)
But since most people agreed MGSV deserved an award, it, well, does.
ITS ABOUT TIME HE GOT IT!
"Kept you waiting, huh?"
for me mgs v was the best regarding the gameplay of the mgs series, but enough about that , yeah i agree fully deserved.
Filthy Daemon Spawn
After hearing the troubles the game development had it's a miracle that is as good as it turned out to be.
MrLCGO yeah i guess that is indead true
#FuckKOnami
FEELS SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD, Thank you Geoff for that strike against Konami.
And thanks Kojima.
man deserved it congrats Kojima you magnificent bastard
"i love jeff, i love games, i love this world"
i love money
Ok I'm slicing some MASSIVE onions over here. Too beautiful :')
Way to go, Kojima! This is LONG overdue! And Death Stranding looks extraordinary!
I wouldn’t be surprised if Geoff has a shrine for Hideo Kojima
Kojima is a legend wouldn’t you AGREEEEEEEEEE
Watching this again, and listening to this speech again, what stuck out to me hear him say was "you've always been there for me"
I can't imagine what has happened away from the cameras that has strengthened their relationship all these years.
But man, this whole segment, yeah, GK was on the brink there with the emotions huh?
Beautiful moment, a real rise of the phoenix moment from Hideo Kojima.
Now go let the legend come back to life"
“I love you Jeff… and game awards.” - me when my boss catches me ripping the dab pen
kojima is awesome!
Ah.....Jim is gonna have a field day with this one.
Why can’t this year have a moment like this?
The feels, man.
Kojima FTW. Always. The MGS solid francise is such a big part of my life to this day. Thank you Kojima for everything you have done. We all love and appreciate your work. May you continue to thrive in this industry as you well deserve. It kills me that Metal Gear is trapped with Konami. This still bothers me.
there is something abut geoff trying his hardest to not break down on stage. idk why i mean we made our jokes about him over the years the doritos pic ect but around that time saw a picture of him as a teenager with gabe newell and i do think he is a guy who cares about his chosen profession
This actually made me cry
Wrap it up Geoff
“Please
Wrap it up”
Makes me wonder how close their friendship is. Do they talk often? Game together? Did they become best friends when Geoff stood up for Kojima?
i can just imagine everyone in konami scrambling to save face after this yikes 😂😂😂😂
fantastic very well deserved congratulations
I was so happy when he won. Can’t believe how Konami did him so dirty. LEGENDARY
That description though
how more badass can you be walking up stage to Low Roar. bet he felt even more awesome and honoured
He will keep coming !!!
Thanks to Kojima the World is now a better place! KOJIMA RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Kojima!!! 🙌
He’s an absolute genius who has made one of the most influential game franchises of all time
man who made my gaming life awesome all this years

As cool as it is that MGS, Silent Hill and Suikoden are coming back, Konami still has a ton to answer for
I fucking love that man.
What a legend.
Imagine having to continue your career from complete scratch.... seeing this makes me happy
A better love story then twilight.
Then twilight what.
the description says it all
Congradulations Kojima, you deserved this.
Goodbye Konami, I have nothing left to say to you. Unless you were to make a Quiet game or a new Metal Gear Rising Game
'After completion of Metal Gear Solid V'
*laughs in Mission 51, Chapter 2 and Chapter 3*
anyone else still REALLY FUCKING WANT SILENT HILLS although it won't happen but death stranding looks dope af
Kam fuck yeah DS is life..
I LOVE GAMES
Happy day :)
