Today on
Headline RePLAY: Hideo Kojima hints about a film project, a complaint to the FTC and BBB is lodged
against EA and BioWare for Mass Effect 3’s
ending and speaking of endings, Tetsuya Nomura talks about Kingdom Hearts 3D’s.
At
Smithsonian Museum of Art, Hideo Kojima was asked if he was interested in
making films, a lifelong passion that influenced the way he makes videogames.
Kojima
noted he is always interested in filmmaking, but does not think Metal Gear Solid would work as one. However,
the Metal Gear creator added that something is in the works.
“I’m
working on something, and I hope in the near future I’ll have something to
announce,” said Kojima.

The battle
over Mass Effect 3’s ending has
reached new heights when a fan took the cause to the Better Business Bureau and
the Federal Trade Commission. The complaint lodged against EA and BioWare was for
“false advertising.”
“After
reading through the list of promises about the ending of the game they made in
their advertising campaign and PR interviews, it was clear that the product we
got did not live up to any of those claims,” said “El_Spiko” on the BioWare
forums.
“This is
not something I was happy to do,” continued El_Spiko, “but after the terrible
ending that was in no way the product that had been advertised to me and the
lack of any kind of response from BioWare/EA to address this, I felt it was one
of my only recourses. I’ll be returning my copy of the game before the end of
my 30 day return policy if the ending still hasn’t been addressed by then.”
El_Spiko
encouraged like-minded fans to do the same and send complaints to the FTC and
BBB.
While
El_Spiko’s claims may be valid, BioWare has addressed the endings last week and most recently on Facebook.

Kingdom
Hearts series director, Tetsuya Nomura, sure likes his surprise endings
as he speaks to Famitsu magazine about Kingdom
Hearts 3D’s main characters and its ending.
“If I had
to say who the key persons were, I’d say they are the silver haired boy and
Axel,” said Nomura. “This time at the end of the story, there will be the
longest cutscene of the whole series where the true form of Ansem and Xemnas,
as well as their goals and many other truths will be revealed all at once.”
Nomura
added Kingdom Hearts 3D should take
about 35 hours to complete.
