Tech Star Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Rumors of Metal Gear Solid 4 debuting on the Xbox 360 have been floating around the internet the past few months. Many gamers and analysts alike have been quick to point out their reasoning behind this rumor, including Konami wishing to expand their franchise over more consoles due to recent PlayStation 3 shortages. This rumor has since been debunked by Konami. A representative recently told CVG; "Konami has no plans to bring Metal Gear Solid 4 to the Xbox 360 at this time." This news should be great for Sony, as the Metal Gear Solid series has consistently been a great seller for their consoles. It appears after losing so many exclusives over the past few months, Sony finally has retained the series of one of their most loyal developers.

magik Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 This is nothing new here that wasn't already reported in the other thread about this very subject. It still says "at this time", so for those that want to keep your hopes up, you definitely still can. A timed exclusive is not ruled out. Even though I don't think it will ever come to the 360, it still hasn't been completely debunked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoadorable Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 i think it should stay on PS. unlike mr.xero there i have nothing against the "other side", as in the PS franchise itself nor the people who enjoy it. i hold no grudges. however, the source quoted is PS-dependent.

DrunkenMaster Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 "Konami has no plans to bring Metal Gear Solid 4 to the Xbox 360 at this time." Its not debunked. They're not planning to release it for the 360. Its doesn't say they are not releasing it for the 360. Thread title is misleading. I often plan on not doing a lot of things. I'm pretty consistent with doing that. Like last year. I didn't plan on finishing the leftofters from the Christmas supper. It wasn't as good as I thought it was going to be tonight. But I finished it. And you see, Konami and I have a lot of things in common. We announce things around Christmas time one year and actually do it the next!

RevelMore Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Hey come on 360 really isn't that bad. It actually enjoy it a lot. I can't hate Konami for making Metal Gear Solid a playstation exclusive, but i really hope they change there mind. Because i have no plans of buying a Playstation 3 right now. And trust, if i could have both consoles, i probably would, but i'm perfectly good with my 360. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightmarE D Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 (edited) But I will mention that Konami's response of: "Konami has no plans to bring Metal Gear Solid 4 to the Xbox 360 at this time." Notice the bold section? That can mean a few things. By saying "at this time", it shows it's something they've thought about doing and may actually happen at a later time. Who knows?

thagame Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 (edited) anyways. thats good. the ps3 needs some kind of selling point. if they lost mgs they would have nothing and go belly up. although that dont sound that bad of an idea lol Edited December 19, 2006 by Giga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windam Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 (edited) Sony needs all the help they can get; their stupidity cost them. I hope they run out of business and that the playstation should burn in hell for good, nothing but sony f***** around with technology. that news source is a crock of sh!t if IGN or Gamespot didn't mention it.
