I wouldn't have thought of this if Paul didn't have connections with Kojima.
In Metal Gear Solid 4 you can get the Tanegashima, a weapon that has a small chance to create a black whirlwind called Divine Wind that kills all of the enemies in the area.
Here's a video:

Well, I emailed Kojima and here is his reply:
Yes, you got me!When I was planning to use "Hidaneju" as special & "too expensive" weapon in "MGS4", I remembered your "Kuroikaze". I implemented Tanegashima which blows everything away including enemy, allies or even battlefield when you fire Tanegashima. This was one of bizzar tips that I included in the game.As an homage of "Kuroikaze", I made my young staff read your book in advance to work on.

That is pretty damn cool.

Awesome. I knew I shouldn't've expected a coincidence.
I also didn't expect you to ask Kojima about it.

Yeah, that's about the coolest thing I've ever read.

When a wind gives me relief, I also believe it to be divine.

And your divine wind also kills everyone in the area.
