NDAs sure make gossip dull sometimes! Former employees, though, make it oh-so rich. Jeremy Blaustein, translator of the first Metal Gear Solid and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, gets frank as hell as he discusses things like trials and tribulations of voice recording, Snatcher's abysmal SEGA CD sales, Silent Hill ripping off movies like The Cell and Barton Fink. His thoughts on series creator Hideo Kojima? First of all, he [Kojima] is an auteur. From the very start, he has a large ego, which is a necessary thing in order to drive a large number of people to follow a project. You've gotta have a big ego and be sure you're right about everything. That's not all! He also goes off on Kojima's "over expository nonsense" and dishes about getting panic attacks from doing MGS translations. Later, he talks about beating up the guy who recorded the voice acting for Castlevania: SOTN. He even says he would've worked on Metal Gear Solid 2, 3 and 4 if he "would've kept his stupid mouth shut." Delicious! kotaku.com/gaming/gossip/former-localizer-dishes-kojima-dirt-280936.php

Kojima is an artist, but you have to hand it to him...The voice acting in Castlevania made my head hurt.
