Hideo Kojima prophecies

I don't mean it literally. But i will give you some reasons to why i say it

In 1987 the first Metal Gear game on MSX was released. Although the game takes place in 1995. (Nothing much of interest but a fun game)
In 1990 he released Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, but takes place in 1999. Now the game doesn't take place in the region however, it does say in the intro "The Cold War is over. The world is ready for peace, however there are some place that does not wish for peace. There is unrest in middle east" So he more or less predicts modern day escalation : 3
Metal Gear Solid 1 released in 1998 but takes place in 2005. This is basically about the dangers of nuclear weapons. Although i will say this one is more or less not so relevant though, other than that bombs are bad.
Metal Gear Solid 2 released in 2001 but takes place between 2007 and 2009, in Tanker it is in 2009. Basically this is pretty relevant because at the end of the game you get a codec call talking about the stupidity of internet generations, or the idea that people gives up their cultural values and slow progress of evolutionary traits due to having a mass pool of information instead of physical interaction... Which more or less is kinda relevant . Considering internet wasn't that huge in 2001 as it was then.
Metal Gear Rising released in 2013 but takes place in 2018. This is also relevant, due to rise of anti immigration and a nut job of a president candidate who is the last boss. I didn't find the cutscene for it, but i believe there is a codec in the game.

Raiden: So let me get this straight: All law enforcement in Denver's been subcontracted out to World Marshal?

Kevin Washington: Pretty much. It's part of Colorado's small-government initiative. When you're tasked with slashing a state's budget, privatizing the police force starts to make sense. Detroit was kind of the pioneer there. Armstrong spearheaded the idea, of course. Back when he was still in the state senate.

Raiden: No surprise. But the police force isn't all cyborg, is it?

Kevin: Nah. No way anyone could get funding for that. Most of 'em are unmodified... New recruits or old veterans from the old Denver PD. They handle most of the basic police work, like street patrols and investigations. Most cyborgs are part of the SWAT unit. They're sent out to handle riots, violent crimes, stuff like that.

Raiden: Makes sense.

Kevin: They're given separate roles in the force, too. Some specialize entirely in combat; others handle things like hostage negotiations. Some of the combat specialists are ex-US Army, but a lot of 'em are from overseas, too. A lot of them undergo the cyborg operation just to get a green card.

Raiden: That kind of thing must go over great with the anti-immigration movement.

Kevin: You know it. A lot of folks wanted a blanket ban on hiring immigrants for the police force. They get a bad rep for those helmets, too -- can't see their faces. They're required to keep their faceguards up if they're not actively on a mission, though. Thing is, we're starting to see a wave of violent cyborg crime across America, you know? The way the police see it, they need more cyborgs on the force to deal with that.

Raiden: Hope they have enough cyborgs to deal with me.
