After a couple of disastrous outcomes filmmaker Guillermo del Toro swears off video games for good VG247 reports. The director recently told Shack News that he is 100 percent done making video games and honestly we don't blame him.

“I have proven to be the albatross of video games,” Del Toro told Shack News.

“I joined THQ, and THQ goes broke. I join Kojima, and Kojima leaves Konami. I have decided, in order not to destroy anyone else’s life, I have decided I will never again get involved in video games. Otherwise, I’ll join someone and his house will explode, or something.”

It's not as if Del Toro hates creating video games, he's just over the entire process. In the full article he talked a bit about how much work went on during the two years "InSane" was in the works at THQ, and he even talked about learning a great deal from "Metal Gear Solid" creator Hideo Kojima.

Furthermore, Del Toro acknowledges that while he will continue to learn from Kojima as a friend and certainly isn't opposed to any other developers making games out of his works, for him personally there will be no more games.

“If I join another video game, World War III will start,” del Toro said.
