1. He doesn't do boring open-world grindfests. Keeping' it straight and to the point.
2. He always puts QTEs in his cutscenes in order to keep players engaged. Kojima's cutscenes are boring, require no input from the player and just go on and on... and on......
3. He has much better taste in actors. Willem Dafoe and Ellen Page easily beat Norman Reedus and Lea Seydoux.
4. His studio always use their own technology, because they are strong and independent. No need to license a 3rd party engine such as Decima.
5. Mayan apocalypse > Nanomachines.
6. He made a game without single 'Game Over' screen. Kojima never managed to do that. Checkmate atheists.
7. He never compromised his vision with last-gen versions of his games to make an easy buck.... unlike Kojimbo (looking at you MGSV).
8. Cage has received the Legion of Honour. Kojima did not.
9. David is also professional music composer (he also composed the opening theme for Detroit: Become Human all by himself). Kojima can't play for shit.
10. Kojima puts tons of creepy anime bullshit in his game. David Cage does not.

All praise the Cage.

 

[Vawn]

Here's why he isn't.

Ethan Mars's blackouts. I'm still pissed.

 

[O-N-E]

Abso-fucking-lutely not.

[Andodalf]

Lol, imagine implying that David Cage wasn’t just A CGI creation Kojima used to produce all his B tier ideas

 

[A.Romero]

Cage probably has better academic background and actual experience in the tv/film industry.

That said, Kojima's worst game is still better than all of Cage's games together.

 

[FranXico]

Wait until MiyazakiHatesKojima reads this.

 

[GrayChild]

That said, Kojima's worst game is still better than all of Cage's games together.

Death Stranding is worse than anything QD has ever produced. Maybe except Indigo Prophecy.

 

[Teslerum]

No....

Just no

Also

10. Kojima puts tons of creepy anime bullshit in his game. David Cage does not.

I'd rather have that then all of the creepy fetishes of his David Cage puts in every single game.

Edit: I do enjoy Cage's approach to story branching, but every single Kojima game is still better.

 

[Steve.1981]

Cage's stuff is so melodramatic, but to be honest I would still much rather play Beyond or Detroit than suffer through anything Kojima has ever created.

 

[hemo memo]

Not in a million years

 

[KyoZz]

The only fact that we can understand his game is a good enough point.

 

[INC]

One at least has a few minutes of gameplay

 

[GymWolf]

The combo farenheit/heavy rain was enough to know that cage is a complete hack.

 

[Tesseract]

kojima snorts cage's bone meal for breakfast

 

[M1chl]

I am enraged and I don't even like Kojima. Cage should probably stick to baking Baguettes and shut the fuck up, his games are trash.

 

[PPIMystaceus]

I too am awaiting MiyazakiHatesKojima

 

[kraspkibble]

As much as I don't like Kojima and it pains me to say this...I prefer him over Cage.

People say Kojima wishes he was a real movie director and it may be true to a certain extent but Cage doesn't even try hide it....he tries to make video games movies. He obviously has been rejected from the film industry so makes video games instead. The only real interaction in his games are button mashing and walking simulation. At least Kojima can actually give us some proper gameplay even if it does mean sitting through a 5 hour cutscene.

 

[hunthunt]

Kojima makes fun games and his storylines are extremely entertaining and unintentionally hilarious in a ridiculous way.

Cage? extremely boring games and soap opera level storylines.

 

[hououinkyouma00]

LOL. no

 

[Mr Hyde]

Joakim Mogren is a better director than any of these two gentlemen. He is the king of Interactive storytelling.

 

[ZywyPL]

Nicolas Cage > David Cage.

 

[A.Romero]

Death Stranding is worse than anything QD has ever produced. Maybe except Indigo Prophecy.

Care to elaborate?

Detroit is great, but earlier QD games were medicore (BTS) or good only (HR). I didn't like MGS5 much and I'm not interested in DS.

 

[Danjin44]

For me Kojima makes better games and far more interesting story even if sometimes they are convoluted. I don't know I didn't like none of the Cage games, both in gameplay and story.

 

[HaveButOneLife]

C'mon OP, both are overrated but you don't gotta do open worlds like that.

 

[BouncyFrag]

This is the greatest thing ever. I don’t think this was deliberately funny on Cages behalf tho.

 

[Kokoloko85]

I like his games but don't speak such Blasphemous

I bet MiyazakiHatesKojima is preparing response so savage, that OP will request for self permaban immediately.

 

[farmerboy]

I'd say this has at least a 72.3% of being true.

 

[ACESHIGH]

Snatcher is better than David cage full body of work.

 

[Mr Moose]

I thought you were serious until I got to number 2.
I enjoy both peoples games though.

It's all about personal taste

[ShigeruMiyamoto]

Whoever directed ET for Atari 2600 is a better director than Hideo Kojima. It's a pretty low bar down there.

You're not fooling anyone, David. Try harder next time.

Don't enrage the Cage.

 

[MrS]

Death Stranding > any/every Cage game

lmao at that Phil avatar too. Back to the asylum you go.

 

[Spaceman292]

Don't enrage the Cage.

Cage needs to disengage, son.

 

[samporter]

Going through their biographies, I would have to say Hideo Kojima is the better director.

Let's compare the two. Cage was a professional musician who started his game development career by partnering up with David Bowie to create a mediocre and forgettable 3D game for the Sega Dreamcast. Kojima was someone who was inspired at a young age to make games by reading manga and playing NES. His first game as a director, Metal Gear, has a created an loyal following to this very day.
