Forums - Microsoft Discussion - 360 can handle MGS4, says Microsoft



I dont think this game is possible in the 360 as it is.A crippled version (not 7.1 sound ,not sound in the codec ,FMV sequences halved ,some graphical effects missing ,not as much foes and action on screen at once ) that seemed somewhat similar could be possible of course .

who wants that POS game? go read a manga and play dynasty warriors if you want the same experience.
j/k



And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

They're already putting them to full use :)

 

 

 well they're starting to..

sony have a lot of in house studios. probably double or tripple that of microsofts. most of which make really good franchises. sony need to start using them a lot more often rather than relying on third parties anymore, otherwise there won't be any reason to buy a system that is double the price of its' nearest rival very soon.

10x of MS's FP.

2x of Nintendo's.

 

surely that's incorrect?

 

1. Microsoft Game Studios

2. Rare

that's it. Ensemble also was there.

Sony's list is just too long.

 

3. Lionhead Studios

4. Wingnut Interactive

5. Xbox Live Productions

6. Turn 10

It's also worth noting that Microsoft Game Studios isn't one team. It's many. We don't know how many, but it's the equivalent of calling Nintendo EAD one developer, when there are over 6 active teams within it working on different projects. As of yet, no one knows how many teams will come out of this restructuring. Maybe it is in fact one, but there were a lot of dissolved studios over the last two years and frankly I don't think MS did that just to make one team. I could be wrong though.

What games did Wingnut, XBLP, and Turn 10 do?

 



Can we have this many threads about same topic ?*Heads of to make 30 "Gears 3 rumoured on PS3* Thread



Around the Network

Wingnut is the studio Microsoft created to work on the Peter Jackson games. Their first game is involving Halo.

XBLP is formely other teams that were working on Xbox Live Arcade games that have been consolidated. They just made Fable II Pub Games and are working on the South Park game for 2009.

Turn 10 makes Forza Motorsport.

I'm not too excited myself at the moment, but it's an Xbox Live game so if it sucks at least it didn't take up too many resources.

Just note, I'm pretty sure there are a few more teams out there, especially in the realm of XBLA, but I don't feel like searching the internets for every little tidbit. MS is by far the smallest of the three, but are much bigger than just two studios.

Sheesh, all these threads remind me of many of the threads regarding the possibility/reality that became FFXIII on 360. The gaming companies, that are not brand specificly owned, (i.e. Sony entertainment/MS Game Studios/ Nintendo) can make/port any game to any system at anytime.

Unless there is a written contract binding them from allowing a specific title to go multi-plat it is always...ALWAYS...a possibility. This includes Gears of War, and other games as well. Perhaps with MGS4, all Sony got was a timed exclusive?? None of us work for Sony, so we dont know.

Anything is possible....which has been proven repeatedly this gen.

It's unlikely that a X360 port of MGS4 would suffer at all.

After all, MGS4 requires mandatory installations after each chapter - which would point to me that the game was previously broken down, and could be, for DVDs - even if it was a DVD a chapter.

 

what i don't get is how you came to that conslusion.

this game was built around the ps3's strengths. there would have to be sacrifices in order to work, because the 360 doesn't have all the strengths the ps3 does. i honestly think mgs4 would struggle on the 360 unless they redesign it.

 

DOATS1, that's a company line. The PS3 and 360 have no "strengths." They have the same graphical power. The only difference is the PS3 can store more data on 1 disc. Considering Crysis is about 6gbs installed, I think Kojima could work out how to contain some his work in under 12. No graphical hit would be taken, I'm fairly sure of that. Sound might be inaudibly compressed. The likely truth is, Kojima bloated the games size because he didn't need to go through the trouble of compressing anything, or making it run efficiently. Blu-Ray makes that unnecessary. However....every game before has used workarounds on such matters.

As for multiple discs, well MGS3 used multiple discs and most hardcore MGS players(the time run guys) consider that game as good or better than MGS4. I personally think MGS1 is better, and didn't it come on multiple discs?

 

Also, don't you think it's funny that MS execs are suddenly talking positively about MGS4. I would take this more as a possibility that a MGS4 multiplat is being investigated by both companies, than I would as a slight to Blu-Ray.

From now on, don't believe things Sony says to you about "The power of the cell" or "This can only be done on Playstation." That's just company hogwash. You should have know that was BS from the beginning. Molly says Fable 2 can only be done on Xbox Live. I know you couldn't possibly believe that. So, how can you beleive the other crap? Just because everybody else believes it? I've talked with you. You're better than that. Think for yourself.

 

This topic furthers my belief that MGS4 is being investigated for a 360 port. We'll probably know for sure within a years time if the game will or will not hit the 360.

You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
