Kojima + zombies = genius?

I love Hideo Kojima’s work. No other games have come close to getting me as involved as I did playing the Metal Gear Solid series.

And now he’s considering making an online game with zombies.

“The zombie idea I have is a bit different. Imagine a large town where half the inhabitants are zombies. Users would subscribe, get inside the town and get bitten. At that stage they become undead and can’t control their character - all they can do is modify the camera angles… They’d see their character attacking humans and have to pay just to watch!”

He goes on to explain that the only way to end it would be to open another account and go into the game and hunt down and kill your zombie self. But the risk is that this new character could get bitten too.

You had me at zombie Mr Kojima, you had me at zombie.
