Visits from Kojima as terrifying as you'd think

Dave Cox, producer of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, admits it's a tad nerve-racking when Hideo Kojima, who's overseeing the project, comes to visit. Or, as Cox put it to Videogamer.com, "... we're shitting ourselves! You got to make sure that the quality of what you deliver is very very high. You're constantly saying to yourself, is that really good enough? Is that really going to be good enough?"

It's hard to blame Cox for his metaphorical incontinence. We're sure it's the same thing for basketball players getting coached by Michael Jordan or pickle makers when they meet that giant stork.
