The question and the answers here make no sense.

You guys live to much into the console warriors territories.

The 2014 world reveal do MGS-V is nothing out of the extraordinary. And was a bold move for Microsoft leaving another COD campain gamplay. And it was a reminder that MGS is not a Sony exclusive.

E3 deals are only E3, the heavy stuff are signed before or after the event.

This is actually the most significant point here. Considering MGS1, MGS2, MGS3, and MGS4 where PlayStation exclusives, Konami (despite losing their minds) had more to gain at the MS conference then the PS one; the PS4 sales were basically guaranteed but they needed people to know it was also on Xbox and later PC.

MGS1 - PS1 1998, PC 2000, Remake for Gamecube 2004 (Twin Snakes)

MGS2 - PS2 2001, Xbox & PC 2002, PS3 & 360 2011, Vita 2012

MGS3 - PS2 2004, PS3 & 360 2011, Vita & 3DS 2012

MGS:PW - PSP 2010, PS3 & 360 2011

MGS4 is the only PlayStation exclusive.


He did say 'were'... Albeit misspelled

MGS4 is the only PlayStation exclusive.

But they all did debut on PS first, the shortest being a year.

Plus MGS4 is the most recent, and it was exclusive, so my point still stands.

I don't think there is a deal? There is a bundle in EU, sure, but other than that..not seeing anything that'd show the existance of a deal

The Retail sales speaks for itself.

Amazon Top #100

MGSV (PS4) #6
MGSV (X1) #128

Yeah but it was a trailer slap bang in the middle in xbox's. Didn't really imply a marketing deal as big as opening a show with the world premiere gameplay

Umm no, I'm pretty sure Microsoft paid a shit ton of money to developers that E3 2013 too NOT show their games on PS4 and I'm sure MGSV was one of those games. Doesn't anyone remember that?


People still believe this?
