Kojima's Online Zombie Game Idea

In a new interview with Edge magazine, Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima reveals that he's interested in perhaps making a massively multiplayer online game about... zombies?

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! The only way they could end it is by opening another account, hunting themselves down and killing themselves. Of course, the problem is that your second character can get bitten as well.

Oh, Kojima. You know you love coming up with these ideas about how to totally screw with players, but in the end your games are always easy.
