So,I played a lot of Kojima games,and...sometimes I find them disturbing.
Let's take Policenauts,for exemple.
The main character can touch boobs and similar but,when you reach the home of your buddy,you can "appreciate" her daughter,that is only a teenager,by the way!

Now I'm replaying Metal Gear Solid 4 and during the B&B fights the camera spot on some "places" of the beauty,but...these are supposed to be dramatic scene!Why the camera show their ass or boobs?It's kinda weird.

In MGS1 too you can see Meryl without her pants during the crawl scene searching for Darpa chief.

In MGS 2 I can't remember nothing (only a naked Raiden).

In Peace Walker if you reach rank S in a mission you can hide yourself into the lovebox...with a teenager girl that is supposed not to be 18 years old :\
And when you hide with her,the box starts to move and strange rumors exit from it.

Is Kojima a parvert or something similar???

I've played some Japanese games here ant there, and they are full of fanservice.

You play them more, you read some manga, and you'll get it's quite common.
I don't read manga,so I don't kwno it.But...why these things are there?What's the purpose?

Because men like it?
And it's a cultural difference, perhaps because of the more.. demure lifestyle there they like their entertainment to contain some of what they don't have in real life?
Something like that perhaps.

Also, I don't think Kojima is a pervert. I do think he's overrated, but that wasn't the question.
Teenagers are pleased to see them? ;P

Sex sells, and Japanese folks like to joke about sex a lot. I think they are more liberal in this.

Sex isn't supposed to be a grave serious thing. Fanservice can be pretty annoying, when it's the only "value" of the product, like in many anime series, but in MGS game I find it funny.

Btw. it's just a video game. For me, it doesn't matter how many years old is a character that is all 01010101s.

In MGS4 you have some special minigame with beauties, when you take their pictures. Yes, you get extra points for photographing their boobs and asses :P

Sexuality can be a funny thing, you know?

Breasts are parts of the basic mammal anatomy (mammals take their names from 'mammary', 'mammals' essentially meaning 'has breasts'). They are modified sweat glands that most mammals use to feed their young (suckling). They are mainly comprised of fat tissue.

Buttocks are similarly fatty areas of the anatomy, more pronounced in primate species as there is less emphasis on quadrupedal movement in these animals. The 'cheeks' of the buttocks shield the anus, which is used by most animals to excrete faeces, a by-product of the ingestion of food.

I hope that begins to answer your question of "why are these things here?". You may like to conduct your own research. When you reach the right year, you should learn some more about animal species in school. Your local library may have some good books on the subject and of course the internet is a valid research tool, too.
Yes,but why insert these thing among minor?
Ok for Snake and Meryl,Snake and Naomi,Snake and Mei Ling or something similar,but Snake with a 15 years old???? It's not funny,is creepy for me,and disturbing too!

EDIT:I discovered that Pax,the female character of Peace Walker,is 24 years old,so my mistakes.But she really seems like a teen for me

You should take notice that in many countries "legal age" for sex is different. Also, you do forget, that people in video games don't exist :P
Well, he is japanese... Also have some weird sense of humour... Yes he may be a perverted.

It's something specific for Japan. You know, up until a few years ago, owning child pornography was legal there. Making it wasn't ,neither was selling it, but owning videos of it was.
He's Japanese. Some argue that a large amount of sexual deviancy is bred there through over-reaching censorship.
I saw an interview with him a while back from Gamecenter CX and he was talking about how a lot of the stuff he'd like to add to games gets rejected because of the immature/grotesque/random nature of it. I know he's mentioned that he gets a lot of inspiration from manga/anime, as well as 80s movies. I think it's this combination which causes a lot of the things you mention, taking things from as mentioned fanservice + trying to push things a bit and make the games feel more like a movie. An 80s movie. Which is awesome.

I think if he had free reign though MGS would be like Benny Hill.
He seems like a whiny little troll to me.

He's on there twice and both times he did not leave a positive impression on me.
The Castlevania SOTN guy on the other hand seemed like a decent guy.. although his input seemed to be mostly cosmetic.

Now let the fight between the prudes and the perverts continue!
One does not simply change the subject from sex to Castlevania... :facepalm:
