mgs4 coming to the 360 is reasonable.
next fall the installed base of the 360 will be ~16 million or so.
the cost of Porting the game to the 360 will be Significantly less than a million dollars.
the impact of doubling the buyers of the game..SIGNIFICANT,,, even if say 10% of the 360 users buy the game. that will still be over 1 million boxes sold...
worth it imo. but i am just a gamer what do i know
LOL @ anyone who thought this was proof. Until it is confirmed by Konami I am not going to believe anyone else.
@ illegal. im saying if 720p is better than 1080p for gaming, the 720p is better than anything higher than 1080p too. so there is no need to advance the resolution in which games play as supposedly the 360 has hit humanities limit on what looks best. sarcasm of course.

Microsoft claimed that 720p was going to be the sweet spot for gaming in this generation, which doesn't mean that all 720p games are going to look better than all 1080p games. While Sony was pushing for 1080p, I think Microsoft seems to be eating their words a bit with the introduction of 1080p upscaling and the HDMI in the Xbox 360 Elite.

i know that illegal, but starcraft said, "i also believe microsoft when they say 720p is best for gaming. Obviously 1080p is best for films, but i have tried all three (including 1080i) and i do think 720p provides the optimum level of detail and smoothness." MS is eating there words, why do 1080p upscaling if your MS is claiming 720p is the best. how on God's earth does 720p provide better detail than 1080p???? If what he says is true (which i don't believe), then there is no need for higher resolutions in gaming as MS/starcraft is saying we have reasched optimum levels.

There are only two possible steps to this being true: 1. Kojima and Konami deeply investigate 360 dev kits and learn how to make this game on the 360, this takes extra time and money on what Kojima has announced to be his last game...doubtful IMHO. 2. Kojima makes a 720p version (likely) however he has to retool things and spend extra time and extra money on a 360 vesrion on what he calls his last game...doubtful once again. On top of the fact that ps3 sales are catching up. I predict that when MGS IV comes out we are going to see something like PS3 - 9-10 million; xbox 360 13.5-15 million. Not a big enough gap to justify this. Don't forget that MGS series has been brought to the xbox before and it sold like crap, this is going to be even harder to justify by Konomi, as they don't know exactly how this will sell. Anyways look for something like Subsatnce or whatever the xbox got before a year or so after MGSIV for PS3; thats my best guess and it will be of lesser quality in somehow. |
And yeah, don't trust retailers.
This is what those UK guys call Search Engine Optimization.
Put some content online that has the keywords 'xbox metal gear solid 4' and visitor-numbers will boost.
Let them fill in the forms and you'll have some new email-addresses to spam with ads.
Do yourself a favor and avoid those e-shops
I wish they would go ahead and make this game multi platform so people would stop posting MGS4 on 360 threads...

Thats when I completely lost interest in your post.

Actually, in a way that is correct. Some developers have stated that it is easier to take a multi-platform game and make the PS3 version first and then port it to the 360 than it is from the 360 to the PS3 because of some of the differences in programming.
