The PS3's userbase at the advent of MGS4 will not be very large and this games budget will not have been surpassed by any game bar K2 by the time it is released. Konami doesn't want to break even on MGS4, they want to rake in millions of dollars in profit. MGS's history on PS2 has created the illusion in many peoples minds that the game can automatically make millions on any Sony console. The truth is the game will not bring in the kind of cash that Konami wants on a userbase of less than 12 million, and that number is truly OPTOMISTIC for the PS3 by March next year. This game will sell some systems, but nothing like Halo 3 or FFXIII.
starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS
