2) Hideo makes the calls

Oh, that's rich. If Konami told Hideo that they needed a 360 version ported, he'd do it unless he doesn't care about keeping his job.

The fact is that Hideo's team probably wouldn't even port it. They might have a satellite team do it for him since he's probably kinda busy making the game right now.

And Hideo has absolutely zero claim over the rights of the MGS intellectual property. Konami can do whatever they please with the game.


Konami would never fire Kojima, remember they have begged him to come out of retirement several times. The last time they actually gave him his own developement studio (kojima productions) with free reign over what they do.

My understading of the current situation with MGS4 is this. The final decision rest with Konami but they won't make a port without Kojima's approval. Given the high regard with which Konami hold Kojima I doubt they will change their policy any time soon.
