George Miller didn't like the 2015 Mad Max game, says he wants Hideo Kojima to make one 'but I would never ask him'

Australian director George Miller has recently been on the circuit promoting Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, which releases tomorrow, and someone called Hideo Kojima has done a good job inserting himself into the story. The videogame director has a long-held obsession for Miller's works, and after attending an early screening of Furiosa delivered the extremely measured verdict that George Miller «is my God, and the saga that he tells is my Bible.»

Kojima also made the effort to travel to Cannes for the film's premier, where Miller was collared by Gaming Bible and asked about his interest in making videogames based on the new film.

«Well we did have a videogame made when we did Fury Road,» said Miller. «We've been asked many many times to do one. It wasn't as good as I wanted it to be, it wasn't in our hands, we gave all our material to a company to do it… but I'm one of those people that i'd rather not do something unless you can do it at the highest level, or at least try to make it at the highest level.»

Miller is here referencing Avalanche Studio's 2015 game Mad Max, and perhaps a little unfairly: but we'll return to that. The director goes on to talk about who he's just met on the red carpet.

«I've just been speaking to Kojima here who came all the way from Japan,» says Miller. «If he would take it on… he's got so much fantastic stuff in his own head that I would never ask him. But if it was someone like that who would take it on, because I couldn't do it.»

The interviewer asks Miller to make it happen, to which Miller laughs and says «alright.»
