Hideo Kojima doesn't decide whether the game is exclusive or not.

Konami does.

This is great news for the 360, though I think we all saw this comming. I'll be reserving my 360 copy the second they start taking pre-orders.


Gballzack has a point here. Since when have software developers decided wether or not his/her game gets ported? I can recall the developer of Resident Evil 4 saying he'd cut his head off if the game went multi-plat, only to apologise later for the suits higher up in the company overruling him. He also failed to kill himself, despite all expectations. =P

Even if the game stays exclusive, it's extremely like that poor sales could lead to Capcom having another team port it without listening to Kojima. The reason these rumours persist is that highly expected third party exclusives on poorly selling consoles is something that simply doesn't happen. 


Yeah again I agree...developers never have a say whether a game should be developed on a console its up to the publisher which in this case Konami....Kojima cant say nothing he has to do what the publisher says or he's fired or something other than that...so if the developer thinks they won't make profit on one console they make it multiplatform as Capcom is doing...

So they will take out the ps3 controller from the game and have to remake the controls costing more money and compress the entire game in order for it to fit on a 9gb disc, and then try to take out some unessesary textures to take up less space, and oh yes ofcourse this wont cost them anything at all, and the 360 will sell about 1 million copies MAX vs the 3 million ps3 sold, and konami will be mad for puting it on the 360, and the ps3 as we know it, is dead. Just becuase konami wanted to put it on the 360 and they lost even more money on it and never made a profit.

 no they will put it on more then 1 disc. Is is so bloody hard for people to go switch disks?

 

However i don't believe its true atm unless konami announce it themself. 



well think MGS4 on XB will depend a lot of this Xmas results of both console.... if PS 3 fails you could see other license moving to other plat form too....

It all depends on one game...Halo 3..

I think there should be a new rule:

"Any threads involving, or pertaining to, MGS4 coming to the Xbox 360 are subject to deletion or lockage at any moment, unless an official statement from Konami, Kojima, or SCE is given."

^ I think it would help keep things a little more tidy.



When the internet as a whole stops going all "MGS4 to 360", then there won't be anymore threads about this. Until then, who cares? Will it make PS3 Users enjoy the game any less if it shows up on another system months later? I certainly hope not.



I don't think this is proof, i'll believe it when I see it, but there are all little bits of info that makes me wonder if it's true or not.

The question is - will Snake still use a SIXAXIS to control the lil metal gear in the Xbox 360 version? heh.



Im calling bull on this. The site also has Haze coming out for 360 and PC this year.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
