E3 07: Metal Gear Solid 4 Confirmed PS3-Only

by Chris Remo Jul 11, 2007 2:40pm CST
During its E3 2007 press conference in Culver City, Sony Computer Entertainment America confirmed that Kojima Productions' anticipated sequel Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is indeed a PlayStation 3 exclusive. It will release simultaneously worldwide in early 2008.

Today's news lays rest to ongoing rumors that the game will be brought to Xbox 360; most recently, Konami's CEO strongly hinted at a potential multiplatform strategy for the game.

Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima came to the stage to show a new real-time trailer running on PlayStation 3 and speak on the game. "The story for Snake will end, and also, for me as a game creator, this will be my last involvement in the series," said Kojima. He noted that all of the series' plotlines and mysteries will be resolved. Gameplay remains stealth-based, but is set within battlefields this time around. Kojima promised to pour his 20 years of experience on the series into MGS4.

For the 1000th time:

1- Yes, MGS4 is currently a PS3 exclusive.

2- Given PS3 sales and declarations from Konami executives, it's quite likely that number 1 will stop being true a few months after the PS3 version launches.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
