The interview here was much longer, actually lasting through the entire show. After only 2 shows, Ryan is becoming much more comfortable with his interaction with the audience.

Kenichiro Imaizumi talks about MGS4. Killer 7 Grasshopper party is full of girls. Awesome! Ryan points out that adventure games are more popular with female gamers. Ryan jokingly suggests to Imaizumi that MGS could be a point and click game to bring in more female gamers to MGS.

Ryan answers fan letters. Fans ask: Q: MGS Saga disc release date. A: mid FEB. Q: MGS3: Subsistence 3rd disc coming to US...A: Yes. Q: # of MGS Saga volume A: TBA. Q: Release of MGS3: Subsistence Limited Edition? A: coming in March 2006. No...Ryan will not give out Kojima's home address.

Imaizumi loves Dr. Pepper, but Japanese think it tastes like medicine?

Starts talking about MGS4. Imaizumi spent 10 years in America. While there he stayed with a host family in an undisclosed stated. Imaizumi studied media art. Host family lives in a house on wheels. Apparently host family father was fired and Imaizumi watched him shoot a cow. Imaizumi assumed this was normal action on the part of angry Americans. What!? Ryan reassures that Americans are not cookie cutter copies. Imaizumi is not Chinese, as most Americans can't distinguish Chinese and Japanese.

Ryan asks what kind of pressure Imaizumi is under during the production of MGS4? Imaizumi loves the work, but knows that the production of MGS4 is a hard job that is made fun through organization.

Hideo Kojima stops in with a serious look during the interview, but moves on.

Imaizumi joined the team during Snake Eater. Rumor is that Imaizumi saved Snake Eater, Imaizumi acknowledges the work being done on the Shagohad, and helps the team get done on time.

Ryan talks about his own interview. Imaizumi says Ryan's passion for MG and his own background skills helped during the job interview, and talked in length about David Jaffe's God of War. Ryan wishes that Jaffe would visit the show.

Imaizumi has to go, the interview wraps up.
