Takeshi Kitano (born January 18, 1947) is a Japanese comedian, actor, presenter, author, poet, painter, one-time video game designer, and film director who has received critical acclaim, both in his native Japan and abroad, for his highly idiosyncratic cinematic work. With the exception of his works as a film director, he is known almost exclusively by the name Beat Takeshi (B?to Takeshi). Since April 2005, he has been a professor at the Graduate School of Visual Arts, Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music.

Takeshi?s Hustle - The Cruellest Videogame in the World
'Japanese film actor Takeshi Kitano hated the idea of videogames so much that he wanted to create one so irritating and poorly-designed that it shocked players into realising the futility of their hobby.
