Looks like the NGP demo of MGS4 Konami showed in January was just for demonstration purposes...

The latest episode of the Kojima Productions podcast had a new segment in which Hideo Kojima gave simple yes or no answers to some big questions.

You can hear the responses for yourself in the podcast (MP3). The segment starts at the 33:30 mark.

Just in case the high pitched voice of the questioner breaks your headphones, here's what was said during the segment. Kojima replied yes or no to the questions asked by the questioner.
