Yes. He created it while working at Konami. But he created it. Konami is the publisher.

 

 A standard clause in any business contract is that the company you work for owns all everything you do while you work for them. This is why you can have the team that did Goldeneye leave Rare and yet still have Rare own (some of) the rights to Goldeneye. You can also have someone else work on an IP you own. This is why MGS5 is already having noise made about it despite Kojima saying 4 would be the last he worked on. Konami owns the MGS IP.

Naraku are you just not smart enough to grasp the idea of ip ownership? It doesnt matter who the fuck made it, Konami owns it and they can do whatever they want with the game. Seriously go to school and take some business courses, that might clear your head up a little bit.

As you may all know there is been a rumour that according to the investment research firm 'Morningstar' "Metal Gear Solid 4 may find its way to the Xbox 360 after all".

I honestly feel they should put mgs4 on the 360 I know what you're thinking quite a bold statement made by the Sony leader, but hear me out!!

First of all I would totally understand if Konami decided to put Mgs4 on the 360 it would make great financial sense to put it on the Xbox 360, and with many japanese games having gone multiplatform you can understand the reason why Konami has gone down this route e.g Tekken 6. Mgs4 on the Xbox 360 would sell very well no doubt about it, with most of the sales coming from America as the Xbox 360 has such strong presence there.

Another reason why they should put mgs4 on the Sbox 360 is simply because its one of the greatest games i have ever played and that is saying much as i have never played any previous mgs games, however this game ranks second in my all time greatest games list behind Megaman2 lol. 

Kojima productions has really outdid themselves on this game, the graphics are amazing, the gameplay is flawless and the story is amazing.  I want other people to enjoy the spectacle of a game that is mgs4. and by putting it on the Xbox 360 it will only expands its audience. This game is simply amazing and every xbox 360 owner who has not played it yet should be giving the opportunity to play ' one of the greatest games ever made'.

I must respect Konami for keeping the mgs4 ps3 exclusive and not releasing the game simultaneously this really helped the ps3 in hardware sales, momentum and a much needed killer exclusive.  And for that reason if Mgs4 makes it way on the Xbox 360 i would be good thing for Konami and Xbox 360 owners, and I would be happy for both of them.

Finally I hope it possible that they can do the game justice on the Xbox 360 however Hideo Kojima said "a port was likely impossible due to the game being optimized for the PS3 hardware, specifically Blu-ray discs"

I just wonder will the space isseus with the dvd format hamper the Xbox 360 version, either way im pretty sure they will do a great port but it will likely come on two discs.

For once, I actually agree with you.  If it's that good of a game, it should be enjoyed by all.  I'm kind of like that about Bioshock.  I think everyone needs to play that game.  It rules.  I'm sure MGS4 would sell well on the 360.  I can't for the life of me imagine why you would pay that much for an interactive movie, but people seem to like it.  Anyway, that's just my opinion creeping in.  I will not buy MGS4 no matter what system it's on.

@DJMeister--I can't believe how much naysaying you do about the 360.  You HAVE a 360 and you DON'T have a PS3.  Does your fearless leader know that one of his "soldiers" doesn't even own the freakin' console?

When did Konami create Metal ger Solid again? Oh, that's right. They didn't.

 

 Um, when the series was first released? Is this a trick question or what? Notice things like Donkey Kong Country belong to Nintendo despite being developed by Rare. Ifinity Ward developed Call of Duty 4 which is owned by Activision-Blizzard. Developing a game does not give you the rights to it. Konami owns the MGS IP.

Yeah, Konami developed it. Hideo Kojima only created, wrote, produced and directed it. Silly me.

 

 Which company did her work at when he did that again? Started with a K, ended with an i. I think it rhymed with Konami. Someone help me out here.

Yes. He created it while working at Konami. But he created it. Konami is the publisher.

 

 

 hahahahahaa can you be funnier?
