Metal Gear Solid 4 on Xbox 360?

The cover (click to enlarge) of December’s issue of EGM clearly says “Metal Gear Solid 4 on Xbox 360?”. Xboxic muses this could this be the final blow to the major exclusives PS3 has over the Xbox 360.

Che Chou, ex-1UP staffer and developer at Microsoft’s Forza 2 team, has this to say about it:

“It’s simply a rumor that Konami higher-ups are pressuring Kojima Productions to consider making MGS4 a multiplatform game because production costs on the game are unsurprisingly high and only getting higher. With PS3 install base numbers not looking all that rosy due to console cost and manufacturing problems, Konami is scared they can’t recoup their investment on only 1 platform alone.

It’s also a nice way to maybe blackmail Sony into giving Konami an incentive [$] to keeping the game a PS3 exclusive, in my opinion. Whatever the case, I highly doubt it’s going to happen so quit building yourself a disappointing kiloton bomb.” It’ll be an interesting 2007 if it goes multiplatform!

Actually young L Reaper wasn’t really trying to start a argument he was just stating his opinion. And THETRUTH that article still doesn’t convince that Metal Gear Solid 4 is going on the Xbox 360…

Guys are you retarded? once kojima sees that sales arent anywhere near 1 mil ofc he will switch to Xbox 360 its only a matter of time rockstar came to its senses so will kojima tell me

there are 88,000 owners of the ps3 right?

Kojima needs 1 mil copies sold…

So tell me how can he sell 1 mil copies to 88,000 people? are they gonna buy like 3 copies each or something?

Anyway it will get moved to 360 MS paid rockstar 50 mil $ just for exclusive content…How much do you think they will pay for MGS4 to get moved to MS? lets say over 50 million think about it you may learn a thing or two lemme make it clearer

KONAMI DONT CARE ABOUT FANBOYS THEY CARE ABOUT MONEY AND SEEING AS THEY WANT MONEY MS HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH *COUGH* BILL GATES RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD *COUGH*

Read This this is more up to date MGS4SIMBA and is a real interview with the President of Kojima, he states that MGS is going multiplatform. (p.s. don’t listen to the PS3 fanboy giberesh when you read it they are REALY STUBBORN AS HE1l): kotaku.com/gaming/rumor/…

It Would Be A Very Good Decision. Think about it they’d make more money and they’d have much more fans which means a better chance of getting more mgs series games and stuff like that
