No Boycott?

Wierd....

They never said it would be exclusive, and the PS3 version isn't getting delayed.

So we're fine with it

if FFXIII and DMC4 were announced multiplat from the getgo there would be less butt-hurt fanboys

It's will be funny if 360 sales of FFXIII are decent compared to the PS3 version

I mean DMC 4 , RE5 sold on par with the PS3...Both series never before on the Xbox brand

But MGS should sell more on the PS3....More than likely the first Multi Platform game to outsell the 360 version by a lot....Along with FFXIII

It's going to be interesting to say the least

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

It'll be a reverse Saint's Row effect.

RE1, 2 and 3 were Playstation games, later Capcom signed a deal with Nintendo (Sony and MS are not the only ones that know this strategy), RE0 and RE4 were for the Gamecube, RE4 also saw later a PS2 version, PC version and a Wiimake, and despite the PS2 version outsold the Gamecube one it was not by much, and the PS2 was way bigger than the GC in sales... So RE5 selling on par in 360 and PS3 is nothing to surprise about, considering the situation...

In DMC4 i guess that one of the reasons the 360 version sold on par was that the installs on PS3 were 20 minutes (widely bashed back then, now people are more used to it) while the 360 one was playable right away, and also, DMC3 made it to PC...

on the case of FF13 it seems like they're gonna be on par due to the fanboys actually interested in the game ( and Ms's eventual massive advertising campiagn).

On the Rising...def the PS3 unless Ms has an extra trick up their sleeve like making it times exclusive for more than 2 months.

In America it will sell more on 360.

Out of the 22million CURRENT PS3 owners, only about 10000 will be butthurt fanboys.

So no... no boycott.

I honestly think this is gonna be a poorly sold game across both platform's because 1) its only a spin off 2) A lot of Xbox owner's won't care for it because they don't get the rest and 3)It's not Solid Snake. Half the metal gear community hate raiden.

I'm gonna go more into my second point and say this. If halo 4 or what ever it's called was announced as multiplat. How many PS3 owner's would purchase the game. Everyone that like's the Halo series already has an Xbox 360. Well it's the same for Metal gear. Everyone that loves the Metal Gear franchise own's a PS3



Onyxmeth on 20 June 2009

Somehow with a huge difference in marketshare in America, and having had the last two titles in the series appearing on it and not the competition, Tomb Raider: Underworld sold dead even in America between the 360 and PS3. Does this always happen? No. However I won't necessarily rule anything out because it can happen. There is a big difference in console ownership in America between the two, so we'll soon see whether there is a large enough installed base of MGS fans on the 360.

I think it will sell more because the whole series was really established on the Playstation consoles. So its pretty obvious that gamers will buy the PS3 version.

I will go against the flow here and say no... it has a chance of doing Underworld like sales ( meaning it will sell the same ammount on both platforms ) but judging by the sales of RE5 I would say that the 360 version will outsell the PS3 version by at least 20-30%... of course worldwide the difference will be far bigger in the PS3s way ;)
