It doesn't really matter, if they don't make it multiplatform they won't make a profit on it. And yeah, the Xbox article seemed more convincing in terms of an actual source.
Doubt it; Konami said they need a million to break even if i remember correctly. If Resistance has pushed two million, theres no way MGS isnt gonna do that or more.

 

  
Nope, they actually said they needed to sell a million ON THE FIRST DAY OF RELEASE to have hopes of eventually breaking even. No one really knows what Konami must be projecting beyond that. We have no idea if that was supposed to imply the combined first day of release in all territories or what, but a million on day one, off a system with an install base in the 10 million range (no one's sure of course when it will arrive) is no small feat by any stretch of the imagination. The comment that person made was actually supposed to highlight exactly how tough a challenge it would be, and lent some credence to the idea of a port for financial reasons.

Yeah, cuz Halo 3 only sold four million week one with an install base of 11.9 million, which the PS3 could very well be at if the June 17 date is for real. 

I think that it will definetly do a mil day one with a eleven to twelve million install base when Halo did 2.5 day one with the same install base.  But I'm maxing out for two million for first week sales.
