Unlike Kojima who saw the light and decided the next console Metal Gear would also be on the 360, right?

The difference is that Splinter Cell and Conviction do not play in the same court......
MGS is a very powerfull franchise and brand name and Sony went all out on the exclusivity thingy and marketing...
Splinter Cell isn't there yet and did not get the same coverage/marketing....
The lukewarm reception the game got due to bugs isn't going to help it out too if it gets a late PS3 port...
if you go for an exclusive you better make sure it is very polished and receives very high critical and fan acclaim.
The mess following Conviction release just doesn't help Ubisoft at all...

What are you talking about? The game may have had a freezing bug when it launched but that is being fixed if its not fixed already...that won't damage the brand any more or less than manditory installs every 30 mins did for MGS4.
I find this to be the best Splinter Cell ever made. And I haven't even started coop which is the best part apparently...

I'm not saying the freezing bug is widespread but the fix and then the fix for the fix doesn't look very professional( delete your system cache...)
And the bug( or glitch, however you decide to call it) has been reported a lot on the web, making many people aware of it, that is definitly not the press you want for an exclusive game...
Check if you don't believe me :
