No, this isn't about anything new or recent, so if you're expecting something related to the upcoming Playstation 3 game, too bad.

I'm playing through the first Metal Gear out of curiosity beset by Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I just defeated Revolver Ocelot (the first boss) and in the impending cinematic, in the dialogue, the game wants me to look at the back cover for the radio frequency to a character. I had to pause the game for just a moment and soak this up. At this moment, I think the story is very much something that is do-able in other mediums, but because of the interactive qualities of gaming, is made all the more suspenseful.

But with this frequency thing, I'm left wondering if Kojima is crazy or just a genius in disguise. I'm sure I'll figure that out eventually, but to those that have played this: what was your first reaction?
