Forums - Sony - Put Metal Gear Solid 4 on the Xbox 360!!!

^^I already read that interview. However, I don't see him moving MGS4 anywhere due to the success it had already. Should be 4 million LTD. After that article, I see him making multiplats.

Why would Hideo Kojima repeatedly refuse offers to put Metal Gear Solid 4 on Xbox360 then? Why did he split from Konami developers and make Kojima Productions after Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance went to Xbox? Also, source for Hideo making a game on Xbox360.

 

 "GP: Is MGS4 still planned as an exclusive PS3 game? Do you have any interest in Xbox 360 development?

Kojima: Well, yes, I do have strong interest in creating something for the Xbox 360. In the US and Europe, it is selling, and I think it will sell a lot this year as well. I'm a fan of Gears of War as well, it's very interesting. Frankly speaking, I want to create something on the PC. It's a multi-platform [format]. I've been regularly studying work on the PC anyways, and I want to provide something as a world-wide platform because of the consequences with timing on the PlayStation platforms, MGS4 is actually for the PS3 only so far."

 You would have to ask someone at Konami or Kojima himself for answers to your other questions. He probably split because he wanted to have full control over his own games and simply could not have that while working directly under Konami. Anything I say will just be speculation though.

First part doesn't show anything specific and is nothing more than comments as of right now. The only things that are fact are that Hideo Kojima left Konami development after a MGS game went to Xbox, and has repeatedly refused allowing MGS4 on Xbox360. And I believe Hideo Kojima said Metal Gear Solid 4 was to be exclusive to PS3 forever.

the reason they would put MGS4 on 360 is because Konami is disappointed with overall revenue/profit it got from releasing exclusively on the PS3. They didn't calculate that this generation, it's not a repeat of PS2 owning everything. MGS4 sold less unit them all other MGS, but it's production was 10 times higher than any other MGS.

Konami hasn't had control over Metal Gear Solid since Metal Gear Solid 3 released. Konami is just Metal Gear Solid 4's distributor. In other words, Konami has no say.

That's almost as funny as a PS3 fanboy owning a Wii, a 360, but not a PS3.
